Happy Cinco de Mayo everybody! Okay, so it’s a little hard to celebrate the Mexican equivalent of St. Patrick’s day, a drinking holiday, on a Monday, but bear with us.
Sal-E joins us to start off the show right with a pitch shifted, hi-NRG version of La Bamba. Then afterwards we serve up a little multicultural “es-spanish” lesson, Feast of Fools style.
One nice discovery we made while readying the karaoke music for today’s show is that all music sounds better if you pitch shift it up and speed it up. Try it!
In today’s busy world, we just don’t have time to listen to our audio/video content the same old “real time” way, now with quicktime you can speed things up and get your heart pumping and energy flowing.
Speeding up songs and pitch shifting them up is so much fun, I’m predicting that we’ll soon hear musicians on major labels release songs pitch shifted up to make everyone sound like chipmunks at 160 beats per minute.
Instead of “chimping” think “chipping” or “chipmunking” the song. You heard it here first.
In Chile, a mayor is handing out free Viagra to men 60 years of age and older. But, who are they going to screw? There wives are probably perfectly content to have not had sex in a while and the South American nation recently repealed giving out the “Morning After Pill” free to low income women. We are hoping that the Chilean tiny drag queen superstar “La Pequeña ” will intercede on behalf of these poor ladies.
Can’t you just imagine La Pequeña at a pharmacy demanding her free birth control, right after a night of reckless sex? Check her out in a hot blooper’s session of her la Pequeña Hillary Clinton video here on the right.
Join Sal-E, Marc Felion and me Fausto Fernós as we follow-up on Sal-E’s baby fetish party and talk about suicide Disney style, when seals attack penguins and those dirty, dirty keyboards.
Please take a moment and spray your keyboard with some sanitizing wipes or windex on a rag to kill those nasty germs. Don’t ever spray anything directly on your computer.
A technicolor dazzle of fabulousness- Feast of Fools.

May 5, 2008 at 12:13This is an amazing video where all the voices were done by the “man of a thousand voices” Mel Blanc. Listen closely to the song “La Cucaracha” being sung by Slow-Poke Rodriguez when he first enters, you can hear him sing the uncensored version which makes a reference to pot smoking “porque no tiene marijuana pa’ fumar” (because he doesn’t have marijuana to smoke.)
You could never get away with that on a cartoon today. Happy Cinco de Mayo!

It was wonderful hearing Sal-E on the podcast today, I was in quite a stressed mood but hearing Sal-E always has a way of making me happy…plus the show was hilarious today overall.
so in conclusion, LOVE SAL-E, keep coming on the show often PLLLLEASE!!

May 5, 2008 at 12:34Loved the Mexican Password bit. I will try to use the word “horchata” in the proper Mexican way of speaking at some point today. Funny.

May 5, 2008 at 12:50I went fishing with my girlfriend, and she caught a lot of fish INTERNET.
PupDon says:
May 5, 2008 at 13:00OMG, what an excellent show guys!!! It’s always a pleasure to hear SAL-E. I can’t wait to IML to see y’all.
And about that LBR, all I can say is… “Let’s face it Mac, that basic black is COMING BACK!!!”
*5,000 cool points to whomever can tell me what that’s from. 
Note from Marc:Shock Value, which we will be discussing soon with Peaches Christ
Fausto Fernós says:
May 5, 2008 at 13:43I LOVED that song! ha ha… I’ll give you guys a clue, the answer will SHOCK you!
Milton from NYC says:
May 5, 2008 at 18:39Love the ginger pits. Great picture.
Excellent show today, as always.
I can’t believe the Warner Brothers studio let that reference to the ganja slide. Oh well, take a puff and pass it around…
Fausto Fernós says:
May 5, 2008 at 18:52They probably let it slide because nobody in charge knew spanish, except Mel Blanc (who I always thought was latino himself, but he’s just a Southern Cali Jewish guy who grew up around a lot of Mexican folks.)
Peaches Christ says:
May 5, 2008 at 20:23Great show today!
I especially loved hearing about the Disney suicide and haunted attractions. I’ve become more and more of a freakish Disney Dork and am keeping up on some of the morbid happenings. My partner Dupuy and I went to Disney World last September and have already booked a return trip for this September. It’s an illness!!!
Anyhow, check out this link if you’re interested in the darker side of Disney:

May 6, 2008 at 05:05Great show! I love Sal’s Flickr page. He is a hard workin bitch
Pete says:
May 6, 2008 at 12:29marc and fausto make the cutest babies!
also, speedy gonzales is the most unoffensive and politically correct cartoon ever produced. mexicans should rejoice that their culture is accurately portrayed in the media. .
SAL-E says:
May 6, 2008 at 14:17Hard work?
No, that is what I call Fun……..Things go by so much better when there is Fun involved.
Just like everyday objects and projects not coming out the way you would like?
Just sprinkle some glitter and BAMB!
It Twinlkes!
Now it is Pretty!
Works on Everything!
You want to see your shit Sparkle?
Eat some Glitter!
Or just sprinkle some on it Before you flush it!
Make anyday a Craft Project day.
Love ya

Matty says:
May 7, 2008 at 16:52Great show, Love it when Sal-E is on. Love ya Sal! Fausto as soon as you mentioned the keyboard bit on the show I got some lysol wipes an disenfected the hell outta my keyboard for a good 10 mins.On the whole latin-american thing, I am partially Latin, Spainsh, and Mexican, but I consider myself american sense I also share Asian, Irish, Dutch and African in my heritage. But I guess anyone with some what of a latin hispanic/herspanic background could say could consider themselves latin american. Well thats my thoughts, great show you guys! love ya!
Rhea says:
May 7, 2008 at 21:12Sal, you look like a wicked life-sized action figure in your photo. I want a cardboard cut-out of you in my living room to go with my Seven of Nine standee!
SAL-E says:
May 8, 2008 at 02:05Oh my gosh, You are giving me ideas………………..I really want to do a NIGHT OF 100
SAL-E’s and then have a bunch of life size cut outs of me throughout the club………….I can only imagine what my apartment will look like just getting ready for the big event.
And to be standing next to Seven of Nine?
Does she have camel toe?
Then you can tell people that the roll of quarters in my pants is really for Laundry later.
Love ya
-SAL-E
SAL-E says:
May 8, 2008 at 02:13I really do not think that I am funny………….Loud Yes……………….I have been told I tend to be LOUD…………………Especailly on the patio out back over at the JACKHAMMER………But I LOVE THE HOLE Downstairs.
There is a Dress code to go down there…………but seeing my Friend John Bartending down there is so worth it.
Dress code is Leather, Rubber, Fetish, etc…….
JackHammer is not strickly a leather Bar but it is a bar that has something for everyone.
To enter the HOLE you will need to be in Dress code.
I work at Circuit on Saturdays but head over to Jackhammer when I am done to close out the bar…………
Love ya
