"We don't ask the softball questions," announced Maclovio O'Malley, who then tossed several powderpuffs in the general direction of guest Armando Villalobos, the current district attorney running for congress. "Were you indicted on Thursday? Were you indicted on Friday? Saturday? Sunday? What about today? Were you indicted today?" Mando's reassurance to all of the above was "No!"
With a comedy shtick more closely resembling Richard Pryor than George Stephanopolous, "O'Malley" incorporates the most common Spanish curse words into every sentence much like Little Rock street language uses mf-er as an adjective, adverb, noun or verb. "Mando, did you pay me a pinche dime for running your campaign ad on my site?" "A puto blogger can't just throw this shit out there to see what sticks." As the perfect straight man, Armando matter-of-factly states: "They're just trying to derail my congressional bid. They did this in 2007. We expected it. There's no telling what they will come up with next. But I don't read them." obviously referring to the local blogs.
It was Maclovio who next threw out something he hoped might stick: "I think it was the Troiani camp, " referring to Anthony Troiani, an opponent in the Democratic primary. Armando let that comment stand without challenge. Maclovio continues: "Juan Montoya puts a lot of shit out there that turns out to be correct, but I notice he's written about 10 stories since this one on Thursday, " implying that Montoya was intentionally burying his shocking expose' blog article.
"What I don't get are these putos who take down your signs just cause they hear a rumor. I'm with you through thick and thin, Mando. You know that. I mean brothers just don't do that."
Actually, the program starts out with an eclectic musical prelude, starting with Bob Dylan's "Most of the Time." Between segments come subsequent musical breaks. The livestreaming comes from Spreaker. The Maclovio O'Malley Facebook page lists a family with Jerry Mchale listed as "father" and Juan Montoya listed as "mother." Perhaps, that explains a lot of the programming.
The substance of the show is primarily "between the lines" or as I was told a long time ago "Many a truth is said in jest." Who knows if next week's show will really feature Melissa Zamora, who Maclovio says "wants my chorizo" and Charlie "Fatkinson", the "puto everyone loves to hate"?
That was one hell of a show, MAclovio O'Malley right now is the best place to hear the best of politics in Brownsville, Cheezmeh is old news, the owner of the blog, Erasmo, we know he is very mad at the owners of Maclovio and Maclovio himself, Erasmo still doesn't realize that if we want to know were to buy cake or fix our tires we go to his blog, but if we want to know all about the latest in politics, Maclovio is the place to go.
ReplyDeleteThat show is childish. Those guys should get a job. They contribute nothing to society. In Spanish, they are "huercos pendejos." In English, they are "huercos pendejos." Typical brownsville. Always wanting to be more than what it is. pobres vatos.
ReplyDeleteIs that Rey Guevara holding the microphone in the picture like its a lollipop? who else would do this show but our own unemployed. ha ha ha

ReplyDeleteHave you forgotten how Rodrigo and Erasmos are working together thinking they are king-makers? I thought you stood against their politiquera style of promoting candidates Jim.

ReplyDeleteAre you kidding? Jim isn't against politiquera bloggers. He wants to be one so bad he prints articles from all the other blogs.
