Trajectory

[edit]

Inés Judit Hernández Martínez was born in Madrid in 1992.[5] Hernand graduated in law from the Complutense University of Madrid in 2017. Subsequently, she completed a master's degree in Advocacy at the same university. After taking and passing the State Examination for Admission to the Bar, Hernand became a lawyer and worked as one for a while.[6][7]

While studying law, Hernand opened a YouTube channel called Inés Responde, where she began to upload videos in which she talked about legal issues in an informative way and gave legal advice on a variety of topics such as renting an apartment, traffic fines, or sales.[8] Thanks to these videos, where she got thousands of views, she began to have a great impact on social media.[9]

Since 2015, Hernand, alongside Darío Eme Hache, presents the talk show Gen Playz on RTVE's youth digital platform Playz,[10] where together with guests from different areas they talk about topics such as mental health, menstruation, politics, or the LGBT collective.[11] This show won Best Entertainment Program at the 2021 Ondas Awards.[12][13][14] In May 2021, Hernand, together with her friend and roommate, YouTuber Andrea Compton, produced the vodcast entitled Dulces y saladas for Prime Video. Two years earlier, in 2019, Hernand and Compton had published the autobiographical novel Que el fin del mundo te pille de risas.[15]

In the field of podcasts, since October 2021, together with Nerea Pérez de las Heras, she directs and conducts the political current affairs program Saldremos mejores within the Podium Podcast platform.[16][17] Hernand also produces a comedy and precariousness podcast called Payasos y fuego together with comedian Ignatius Farray.

In 2022, she was the co-host of the Benidorm Fest competition, organized by RTVE to select the song that would represent Spain at the Eurovision Song Contest.[18] She hosted this contest alongside writer Màxim Huerta and singer Alaska.[19][20]

In March 2022, RTVE announced that Hernand would present the variety talk show La noche D on La 1 together with comedian Eva Soriano, replacing Dani Rovira, who had hosted the program so far.[21][22]

In 2023 the Spanish public channel RTVE was forced to withdraw from its networks the Gen Playz chapter in which; being broadcast strictly live during the Pride festival and on dates close to a general election, the presenter said " I have to say that the good guys always win, so of course, even though the violence is structural, I have no doubt about the victory of a progressive government in the next general elections." using the public medium as her own to express her personal political views.[23]

Hernand collaborates with several digital media, such as HuffPost since May 2021 as a reporter,[24][25][26] or eldiario.es, where she has published opinion columns in its Tribuna Abierta section since February 2022.[27] She has also been a contributor to the program La resistencia presented by David Broncano, since September 2021.[28]
