Pedro Sánchez to appear on David Broncano's 'La Revuelta' this Thursday

Pedro Sánchez will be interviewed this Thursday on 'La Revuelta', David Broncano's show on La 1, in the middle of the campaign for the November 29 elections. The visit caps the host's landing at RTVE, an operation he himself has turned into a running joke.

The Prime Minister will sit on the sofa of 'La Revuelta' this Thursday. **ABC** broke the news, and it closes the circle of David Broncano's arrival at RTVE: the host who landed on La 1 amid suspicions of favoritism ends up interviewing the prime minister those sympathies were attributed to. The appointment also comes in the middle of the electoral race toward **November 29**.

## From suspicion to the sofa

"Pedro Sánchez didn't put me here as if I were his silly little cousin," Broncano said on the first show. The line sums up the tone with which the program has handled its own position: recurring jokes about the closeness between the host and the Prime Minister, turned into comic material rather than a problem.

The relationship had a previous rehearsal. In **October 2025**, Sánchez appeared on the show via a video addressed to Julia, the daughter of collaborator Jorge Ponce, after he asked him for a letter for the girl's teacher. The Prime Minister responded with a recording and a letter in which he defended that "girls should do whatever they want."

## Letters to the three candidates

The interview doesn't come out of nowhere. The previous Thursday, Broncano announced on air that he would send letters to **Alberto Núñez Feijóo**, **Santiago Abascal** and **Pedro Sánchez** inviting them to the studio in the weeks before the elections. "Apparently we have to, at the very least, simulate impartiality," he joked at the time. To all three he said: "This is your home."

For now, it is the Prime Minister who has responded. The visit comes as the show competes in the same time slot with 'El Hormiguero', the Antena 3 program hosted by Pablo Motos that has dominated the access prime time for years. The arrival of 'La Revuelta' was also read in political terms, because the show was born with the ambition of standing up to that dominance.

## The shadow of José Pablo López

The show's story cannot be understood without **José Pablo López**, today president of the Corporation and then RTVE's director of General Contents. His push for Broncano was one of the big moves of the public broadcaster's schedule and peine a crisis in its leadership, with dismissals and departures, including his own. A few months later he returned to the front line after the reform pushed through by the Government, which changed the composition of the Board of Directors and lowered the majorities needed to elect him in a second vote.

In recent years, the public television schedule has added faces associated with programs ideologically close to the Government, such as **Jesús Cintora**, **Silvia Intxaurrondo** or **Marc Giró**. Thursday's interview adds one more piece to that political reading of RTVE, just as the campaign enters its decisive stretch.
