Here are three takeaways from the new Juan Gabriel documentary "Debo, Puedo y Quiero" on Netflix from our Juanga resident expert, Futuro Media's Executive Editor Maria Garcia.

1. It captures the duality of his life: Alberto, the man v. Juanga, the performer
2. It references the way he played with sexual ambiguity in a very artful way
3. It reveals nearly 50 years of footage he saved because Juan Gabriel knew his story would become cultural patrimony

And if you want more Juanga content you won't find anywhere else, listen to "My Divo," hosted by Futuro Media's Maria Garcia wherever you get your podcasts!
