Carlos Alsina, a defining presence on Spanish radio, is leaving the early-morning segment of Más de uno after 11 years and more than 2,500 broadcasts at 6 a.m. The change reshapes the programme’s morning schedule: Rafa Latorre takes charge of the information-led first block, while Alsina remains a basic presenter and editorial figure later in the show.
Under Onda Cero’s 2026 to 2027 schedule, Latorre leads the information segment from 6 a.m., covering current affairs across politics and the economy, with social issues also in focus. Alsina takes over at 10 a.m. for the programme’s second, entertainment-focused section, which runs to midday. The four-hour handover divides responsibilities within Más de uno; Alsina is not leaving the programme. Onda Cero presented the change as part of a season built around continuity and new voices, summed up in its slogan, “More voices, more radio… more Onda Cero.”
Alsina’s later segment retains the programme’s conversation and humour, along with cultural features including La Cultureta and Radioficción. The network’s description of the complete programme brings together Latorre’s monologue and interviews with humour and audio fiction, reflecting its two-part format. The revised arrangement was in operation in October 2026, when Onda Cero published full programme editions featuring both presenters.
His final early-morning broadcast became an occasion for recognition, as colleagues and contributors paid tribute to his influence and distinctive style. Alsina has long made political interviews a signature feature of the show. The farewell included a barbecue and a specially crafted ninot, marking the camaraderie and routine built over 11 years of early starts. He has described the change as a shift, not a retirement, giving him more room for the parts of radio he finds most rewarding, particularly fiction and live broadcasts outside the studio.
The move also separates the programme’s two editorial registers: Latorre’s early news and analysis, followed by Alsina’s more flexible mix of entertainment and culture. Alsina has said the later portion is less tied to the day’s lead story than the news block. His decision reflects a broader interest among veteran broadcasters in creative freedom and a more sustainable working rhythm. A similar thread runs through the experiences of other Spanish media figures, including Valeria Ros, who recently discussed her career transitions and personal challenges in an interview available here.
Más de uno remains a flagship Onda Cero programme, combining news and analysis with cultural content under one title. The new schedule preserves Alsina’s presence while giving Latorre leadership of the early information block; it also retains the programme’s established mix of interviews and humour, alongside creative radio. For listeners, the handover closes Alsina’s 6 a.m. era and begins a new division of roles in the morning broadcast.
Such transitions reflect the changing demands of broadcast journalism and the value of adapting programme formats to presenters’ schedules. As listening habits and distribution continue to evolve, Más de uno is carrying its established identity into a revised morning structure.
