The London Garcia Radio Show BLOG

SHAKTI TRIBE

~ ~ ~

“Their show at Men’s Central was their most intense yet. Sixty percent of the men there were imprisoned for murder, they were told.  Guards with sniper guns were perched up above the band.  Yet even here positive change can occur; some time after the show, the band received a letter from one of the men who had been in attendance that day who relayed that their concert was a turning point in his life.  He got out of prison, started practicing Yoga and rock climbing and found a good job and a girlfriend.”

It’s a testament to the power of love. The Tribe walks into a facility consciously holding a vibration of love and forgiveness.  “It’s as infectious as laughter or tears.”

Making a difference with anybody anywhere can start long before and can go long after an earthquake or any other tragedy.

HAITI

It’s not “us over here” and “them over there”.  Truly.  It’s a member of your family called the human race.

A native of Haiti, singer Exusdus, joins me to share how this devastation has affected him personally and what is it really like for the people of Haiti.

And together, we will talk about:  WHERE DO WE GO FROM HERE?

You are never too small to do something that could change someone’s life forever, anywhere in the world.

Believe.

“Everybody can be great…because anybody can serve. You don’t have to have a college degree to serve. You don’t have to make your subject and verb agree to serve. You only need a heart full of grace. A soul generated by love.”

~Martin Luther King, Jr.

MEET:  Luis Villasenor

As a part-time unlicensed private investigator (available to appear on “Criminal Minds” at anytime, preferably in love scenes with Shemar Moore), I came across some very interesting things.  Some:  questionable at best.  Most:  disturbing.   It was time that I got to the bottom of this notorious “performer”.

Law-Abiding Citizen?  A victim of transgender abuse?  Your daughter’s worst nightmare?  Comic?  Who’s to say in this topsy-turvy world…

A LOOK INSIDE THE LIFE OF LUIS VILLASENOR

5 minutes before the LAPD caught up with him (after my professional guidance, OBVIOUSLY because EVERYBODY knows that the LAPD doesn’t make a move without London):

“Dear God, I pray that the guy next to me is not sharing a cell with me.  I can tell he thinks I’m purty.  I can’t blame him.  I am.”

“Match.com not working out so good…..but as you can see, I’m still happy that I found love.”

 www.I-Luis.com

OR…..Oliver Platt’s chance to upstage his own Oscar-winning performance in “Doctor Dolittle”?

OR…..Tiger’s greatest hope?  (although I believe he’s the gift that keeps on giving….even HE can still get himself in trouble by ’sexting’ and porking the waitress at Denny’s…even after the world has been wiped out)

OR….. 

JUST DAMN GOOD MUSIC ?!?!?!?!

www.myspace.com/evolovetheband

And don’t you worry my little muffin cups…I’m gonna get to the bottom of the age-old question:

What came first?  The chicken or the egg?

Or in this case:

Who came first?  The over-budgeted film with yet another SURPRISING (predictable) ending or EVOLOVE?

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ 

AND…DON’T MISS EVEN 3 SECONDS OF THE SHOW!  WE HAVE A GIVEAWAY!!!!!!!!!

LISTEN FOR THE PHRASE OF THE DAY, WHICH IS:    “I’d rather take Propofol than watch that wig-wearing blonde on Real Housewives of Atlanta.”

As soon as you hear it, send an email to:  hollaback@londongarcia.com (include your name, address, t-shirt size, and what color you’d like in a Bentley……really…I wouldn’t toy with your emotions like that)

************ FIRST PERSON TO EMAIL WINS (emails sent before we say the “phrase of the day” are automatically disqualified) ************

I don’t know about you but when I hear of a FREE party, FREE parking, FREE show, FREE beer, and some other FREE stuff, the person putting on that party is instantly my new BFF!!!!!!!

• WHAT the hell is it?   Live show by Jason Yates –AND– old school DJ in the house doin’ his ‘wicki-wicki-wicki’ on the turn table
• WHEN the hell is it?   Saturday, January 9th
• WHEN the hell does it start?   8:00pm-1:00am (or whatever…)
• WHERE the hell is it?   1637 N. Spring St., L.A., CA 90012

And no matter how well you know me or how ‘close’ we claim to be, if you show up and embarrass the hell outta me, I never knew you.

And to the person paying for all this crap, I tip my baseball cap that says “If You Ain’t Mexican, You Ain’t Chit” and I lift my borrowed/stolen glass from Applebee’s and I say to you:

“HERE’S TO YOU WHAT’S-YOUR-NAME!!!  You’ve always been the best person I’ve ever known.  You mean so much to me…….what’s-your-name.”
