Gustavo on The Tom Leykis Show THIS WEDNESDAY for Monthly ĦAsk a Mexican! Hour!
OC Weekly (Orange County, California)

By Gustavo Arellano
If it's the last Wednesday of the month, it means that it's time for
me to trek up to Burbank and spend the afternoon with Tom
Leykis. Lemme explain how it goes, as it's now part of the show's
tradition. The first hour (starting at 3 p.m. PST) is devoted to Tom
and I shooting the shit, on conversations that can go ANYWHERE. Last
time, for instance, we ended up talking about KPCC-FM 89.3 and its
recent personnel struggle, with Tom teaching me a radio joke that was
HILARIOUS!
Hour Two is the ĦAsk a Mexican! hour, where I people's questions on
Mexicans LIVE. And Hour Three? Even better.
If you haven't tuned in to Leykis yet (and why haven't you?), the last
hour of every Wednesday (5 p.m.) is called "Be Funny," and is devoted
to listeners calling in with the task of being funny. People tell
jokes, do song parodies, imitations, go on rants--EVERYTHING. This is
the last bastion of ethnic humor in Southern California, and people
will imitate everybody from Armenians to Cousin Brucie, cover "Shine
On You Crazy Diamond" to "My Cherie Amour" in Spanish--truly, a
fabulous hour.
And did I mention that during the entirety of the hour, Tom and I
drink mucho ON Tequila? I just did!
So the particulars, again: at 3pm PST this Wednesday. Tune in at
blowmeuptom.com--see you there!
