The Pussification of Maclovio O'Malley

The Maclovio O'Malley Show, livestreamed to Brownsvillians via Spreaker, puts local politicos on the proverbial hot seat of sexual innuendo, buttons that release barking sounds and a sidekick and moderator who can incorporate every Spanish expletive into sentences as a noun, verb, adjective or adverb.

A candidate considered a friend of the show, like Armando Villalobos pictured left, is served t-ball questions and given several chances to swing.  In the tradition of shock jocks like Howard Stern, the goal of any guest has to be survival with their reputation semi-intact, and a performance that hopefully will not be replayed for their grand kids or employers.  If your goal is to promote a candidate as Melissa Zamora attempted last year, you come off looking like a good sport, while your candidate is described as "effeminate."

Considering the format, potential guests for the show are not standing in the hallways of the Dancy Building, waiting to catch the eye of Maclovio O'Malley, a talk show host in real life who plays the part of Chris Valadez, administrative assistant to Judge Cascos in his alternate persona.

So, when a fan of the show recently presented what she thought was a bombshell show idea, Cata Presas-Garcia and Mary S. Rey on the same show, she was somewhat bemused when Mr. O'Malley rejected the concept.

Here is a cut and paste of the conversation between the local shock jock and the fan with a show idea.  Maclovio's initial  response is to the fan's suggestion of including Mary S. Rey on the show with Cata Presas-Garcia:

Fear can be a powerful emotion, but not one normally associated with a playful, irreverent, gutter-hugging comedy show.  The Smothers Brothers, Richard Pryor, Lenny Bruce, George Carlin, etc. were seemingly never paralyzed by fear.  It's doubtful any of the above would reject a show,skit or comedy routine concept based on the fear that a senior citizen would rattle the cage of a semi-articulate, bungling RICO felon bent on manipulating the local school district.  But then this is Brownsville, where a self-proclaimed hispanic messiah can mesmorize the local politicos and their administrative assistants with promises of calabaza and paradise.
