Highlights of Today's Show.... Interview with Avaiator, Politician Tom Garcia and the return of Magali Rassel Director of Multilingual Services of Orange County July 17, 2010 By: Anthony Gaenzle ORLANDO, Fla. – This weekend’s installment of Yo Soy Latino brought back a familiar face. Magali Rassel, one of the Directors of Multilingual Students Education Services Department, sat down with hosts Jose Miranda and Haydee Ayala, to revisit their previous discussion about the state’s educational system. The conversation focused mainly on the need for multilingual education in Florida’s school. Rassel fielded calls from guests and answered questions from Miranda and Ayala, involving a range of topics from the funding of ESOL (Education for Speakers of Other Languages), to the composition and responsibilities of the teachers that have taken on this important task. For more information on Magali Rassel you can contact her by phone at 407.312.3200 or by email at magali.rassel@ocps.net. Later in the show, Commander Tom Garcia, a former Naval Fighter Pilot, stopped by Yo Soy Latino, hot on the campaign trail. He spoke with the hosts about his intentions to run for Congress and to change the way Florida’s politics are practiced. Garcia’s impressive resume boasts credentials such as; Naval Academy graduate, fighter pilot, member of the Republican Party of Florida’s Hispanic Leadership Council, reception of a presidential medal, and much more. During the latter part of the interview, a listener called in with some tough criticism. Garcia stepped up to the plate, handling the questions with ease. By the end of the called he seemed to have won over, at least in part, the opposing caller, showcasing an example of his political savvy. For more information on Garcia, please visit http://tomgarciaforcongress.com or call his campaign headquarters at 386.314.0494 or drop him an email atstaff@garcia4congress.com. Tune in next week to WEUS Big

Kelli, I do understand your dilemma but let me point out to you that many states did receive millions of dollars in stimulus monies. Yes, much was spent on state budgets that where already in the red, some went to Education, Police and Firemen, some even to infrastructure Highways and such and I’m sure their was monies that where wasted. I know it may be tough to hire however what if you hired someone part time their by helping to provide during these hard time someone with half a loaf of something then all of nothing if you get my drift. This didn’t happen over night and it took many administrations to get to this place both Democratic and Republican and it isn’t the fault of this President he just happens to be the guy where the buck finally stops here. I know things will get better because I know what this country can do when we stop fighting each other and come together…. There can be no black or white or brown or green but one people coming together….We must find common ground…..Their are bills being proposed now in congress that will help the small business owners but as you know there are also those who are being obstructionist holding back and preventing things from going forward …this is what I am refereeing to when I say we must find common ground Thank you for your words and for listening to Yo Soy Latino


Kelli on Saturday, July 03, 2010 said:

If the individual businessperson's being taxed to death (I am one and I know, I run a beauty salon), how are we supposed to hire new people like you suggested at the end of your show today? I sure didn't get any stimulis money. Look at who did. Mostly government agencies. Fat lot of good that does me, honey.

Interview with Ramon A. Ojeda June 5, 2010 ORLANDO, Fla. — Today’s show was filled with good-nature amusing mayhem as boys will be boys impressing their playful talents on the air. YSL’s host Jose Miranda and our very own engineer Raul engaged in some colorful amusing banter that just didn’t stop throughout the first-half of the hour. The Lady of the airways our co-host Haydee Ayala was away handling family matters which entailed the christening of her granddaughter but she did provide the team with a full program. Regrettably, our distinguished guest, Ramon Ojeda, the President of the Hispanic Chambers of Commerce in Metro-Orlando was a no-show for this week’s program. However, that did not perturb Miranda the least bit as the show continued smoothly without a hitch and, before long Jose and Raul returned to that hot button topics, politics — discussing in part the issue of former GOP leader Greer who was charged with six counts of fraud and grand theft, to the situation involving the White House the oil spill and BP then on to the unemployment issues of 170,000 people losing their benefits to the events of South Carolina. Where a sitting U.S. Senator made a remark about the female Gubernatorial candidate who happens to be of Indian decent said "We already have one rag head in the White House. We don't need another one in the Governors mansion”. This latter issue set off a lively debate with our listeners about the silent 300 lb. gorilla called race. Even though some topics can be hot YSL offers an open forum for all to unlock their views whether we agree or not, we can agree to disagree. So come back next week and join Jose, Haydee and the YSL team as you just don’t know what you’ll be missing. Don’t forget now, if it’s Saturday and Noon time fix those radio dials to the BIG810 WEUS AM because it’s time for the Yo Soy Latino radio hour.

I can't understand what you mean by your statement that what Rand Paul said is somehow racist against Obama. You've been drinking way to much of the democrat's mojitos, friend.

May 22nd Guest Interviews with Ronald Blocker and Robert Hill By Anthony Gaenzle Ronald Blocker Interview ORLANDO, Fla. – Jose Miranda, host of Yo Soy Latino, sat down in the studio of BIG 810 AM with Ronald Blocker, superintendent of Orange County Public Schools, to discuss the condition of our state’s educational system. Blocker has held the position of superintendent in one of the nation’s top 10 school districts since 2000. He has spent the last ten years making an earnest effort to change the reputation of Florida’s schools. For years, Florida’s educational system has been at the bottom part of all 50 states. Blocker has been working diligently to repair the system’s tarnished reputation. During the interview, Miranda and Blocker covered various concerns facing our schools, including the cutting of paraprofessionals who assist students, for whom English is a second language, in making a smooth transition. With approximately 160 languages and dialects being spoken in public schools across Orange County, the task of integrating these students can prove quite difficult. Miranda and Blocker covered topics ranging from the way in which Florida’s stimulus money was divided, to administration of bi-lingual education. The atmosphere became a bit heated when Haydee raised the issue of violence and bullying in our schools. Blocker stressed that the goal was to keep the students on the right path. He cited programs such as alternative schooling as a way to combat the problem. The citizens of Florida are extremely passionate about the education of our state’s children and the conversation certainly did not disappoint. Visit the show archives to listen to Jose Miranda’s interview with Superintendent Blocker. Robert Hill Interview ORLANDO, Fla. – Robert Hill, artistic director of the City Beautiful’s cherished Orlando Ballet, phoned in to Yo Soy Latino to discuss the present, past, and future of the company with host Jose Miranda.

Thank you for your comments as short of ideas as it was. Perhaps the subject was too much for you to understand or you just lacked the ability to get the over all picture. The point of the program is to promote the exchange of ideas in an open forum not a close minded one So thank you for trying


Garcia on Saturday, May 29, 2010 said:

Man, why you want to go on about that papers stuff? It ain't even funny, ese.

Diana on Saturday, December 05, 2009 said:

Good evening. I am a Latina living in Louisiana and have had the opportunity to listen to the show via the internet. I find it very refreshing and informative. The topics that I have listened to have been great. I wish Jose, Haydee and the staff the very best and continue the great work. Sincerely, Diana


Marta, Winter Park Florida on Saturday, November 07, 2009 said:

I wanted to thank you for a great program, and let you know that I very much enjoyed your show. The quality of conversation and content discussed, as well as your excellent guest made for a valuable listening experience for your listeners. Thank you Jose and Haydee, your shows are inspiring. Good luck to you both!


Yo Soy Latino, host Jose Miranda on Friday, October 09, 2009 said:

Yes I too read the article in the Orlando Weekly yesterday. However, Mr. Melendez (Edward) is not and I repeat not a relation of mine. Further the alledged violation of law was for an antiquated 1864 law that was last used in 1926 any other charges where dropped because they were all circumstantial lacking any violation of law. However, as you read on an offer was made By the District Attorneys Office to Mr. Melendez, which he accepted to put an end to this ordeal. These are the simple facts of the case. Though I am mentioned in the article a few times, it is by association. These charges were NOT directed at me or at the NLOA but I do appreciate your taking the time to share your views with me.


Elian on Thursday, October 08, 2009 said:

Whoa! Just read the Orlando Weekly. So you're cousins with this weird guy Edward?


Perez on Friday, September 18, 2009 said:

Just wanted to say I enjoy your show and that your guests are great. Good job!


Melinda Perez on Monday, August 24, 2009 said:

I really enjoy your show! I utilize the internet tool and listen via the mp3 audio since I am in NY. Great show and you have a definite fan here in NY!


Jose Miranda for Yo Soy Latino on Friday, August 21, 2009 said:

Thank you for taking a moment to lodge your concerns with us. True we do lean towards the Hispanic and African-American communities but all ethnicities are welcome. Our objective as you may be aware is to communicate and serve the community by highlighting positive role models and ideals. While we do reach out to many guests locally, there are moments when one has to source outside the state due to extenuating factors that prevail. We book our guest 3-4 weeks in advance and sometime availability is a concern. With regard to your query, Commission Linda Stewart is running for Mayor and Gino Feliciani is the Division Chief for Sex Crimes and Child Abuse Unit of the State Attorney’s office. Awareness is important, it fuels the mind and some of us get too wrapped up in the day to day activities that we miss newsworthy information. We at Yo Soy Latino help to bring these views to our listeners allowing them to reach an intelligent conclusion. Let me ask you this while I have your attention. Is there someone in particular you would like us to reach out to? Let us know and we’ll do our best to get them on the show.


Bam! on Thursday, August 20, 2009 said:

I thought this was a show for Latinos and African-Americans. Why Linda Chapin and this other guy? Whenever you DO have a Latino on the show, it's always someone from someplace else. What's the deal, your homes ain't good enough for the show? No interesting Latinos in Orlando? Just something for you to think about.


Brenda Gomez, Orlando FL on Thursday, July 30, 2009 said:

Good Morning Yo Soy Latino. I really enjoy your radio show and the topics you cover. I’ve been listening to your program for a while now and your shows are getting more insightful and entertaining as the weeks go on so I wanted to let you know this is one listener that appreciates all you do. Thank you! Brenda

Hey Buddy, I just started listening to your show; you do a good job, and Moore was cool. Keep up the good work.


Haydee, Orlando Florida on Sunday, July 12, 2009 said:

I enjoyed your Saturday program with Shannye Moore. She’s a very sharp woman and I can see how you would be mesmerized by her thinking process. It was a good interview and not at all lackluster, your biggest fan Haydee.


Yo Soy Latino, Jose MIranda on Friday, July 03, 2009 said:

Conversations on the show are meant to solicit dialogue that otherwise would remain unspoken. It is not necessarily the viewpoints held by individuals. However, in an open forum nothing should be excluded so that everything hidden is revealed, thereby allowing for a “fair and open” discussion to bring forward the various aspects and opinions of others on the outside. It’s already unfortunate that a vast majority hold a negative point of view of the third world issues; and, by not airing these views we will not reach a middle ground of commonality. It is in disclosing these opinions of the general public that one is ultimately reached. Further, if there is an untruth that too will reveal itself. Thank you for submitting your comments and viewpoint to us. Comments are always welcomed, negative or positive. However, aren’t you by your statement making the same inaccuracy?


Bashir Q'Dar on Friday, July 03, 2009 said:

I hear Jose Mirandas on a Peoples Power Hour show today and I was deeply offended at his statement that he thinks all people from middle east look same and have dots as Hindus. I must tell others not to hear your show or Peoples Power Hour show.


Maris on Sunday, June 28, 2009 said:

I, too, enjoyed your Michael Jackson tribute. How did you come up with this?

Hello Yo SOy Latino your show is fantastic and your tribute to Michael Jackson is great

Subject: Family Requests Birthday Cards Date: Mon, 25 May 2009 14:26:39 -0400 There is a wounded soldier at the Fisher House in Fort Sam Houston, Texas by the name of Sgt. David Thornhill. Sgt. Thornhill lost both legs and I think both arms as well as being burned on 56% of his body while serving this country in Iraq. He has been at the Fisher House for 2 years and his parents have reached out for support. They are not asking for money or anything like that, but they are asking for as many service members, veterans, and others as possible to please send him a birthday card. His birthday is this coming week and it would be nice if a lot of us send him a birthday card to show him how much we love him for what he has sacrificed for his country. His parents are worried about his emotional status and he hardly ever has visitors. Let's help this soldier and send him a lot of cards. Show your love. Mailing address: Sgt.

Hello Mustafa Jones, Thank you for pointing that out to me and for listening to Yo Soy Latino. I truly appreciate your thoughts and comments. I was referencing a comment made by Henty Allingham, the oldest living WW1 veteran

Here you are, Jose! You've been ignoring us at the People Power Hour site. That's a bad boy. We like bad boys, right Connie?


Connie on Saturday, May 23, 2009 said:

I am a huge fan, I listen to your show every Saturday, and it’s a part of my routine. You are an inspiration to our Latino community. Your views are refreshing and inspiring and comical a times. You have the sexiest voice on radio. I wish you continued success and look forward to many more shows. Your biggest fan, Connie


Mustafa Jones on Saturday, May 23, 2009 said:

I heard you mention on the show (May 23) the lack of WW1 memorials; there are three that I know of. One is at Arlington National Cemetary, another is at the National Mall. The other is the offical United States WW1 Museum located in Kansas City, Mo. I'm sure there are others, but I've actually been to those three.


Kim Negron on Saturday, May 16, 2009 said:

Please send our love and prayers to Bridgette. She deserves a chance at life and we all should ralley together and make it happen. Thank you for all you are trying to do.


Rosa Diaz on Sunday, May 10, 2009 said:

I was so looking forward to your show this Saturday it just wasn’t the same not hearing you or Haydee. You have a good thing going and I especially enjoy the genre of subjects. That was brilliant writing an explanation on your blog as to what happen. Keep up the good work as I’ll still be listening!


Kim Negron on Friday, May 08, 2009 said:

You have a great show, we listen every sat. Keep up the good work.

I like the radio show; a great mix of topics. Keep up the good work.


Allen on Saturday, May 02, 2009 said:

No. Flowers are sweet but unnecessary. If you really want to do something for your girl take her out to a nice lunch or dinner and include her children because that's what mother's day is about, not all this commercialism or hype.


Flip on Saturday, May 02, 2009 said:

Nice show, nice bald head. Any chance at having a remote from the Parliament House? You'd start a riot, hottie!

Great show Jose!


Weezy on Tuesday, April 28, 2009 said:

I really like Haydee being on the show; a woman's touch is a good thing! Keep up the good work! :-)


Macho on Monday, April 27, 2009 said:

Good show about the cigars; what happened, because sometimes the guy was cut off when it was time for commercials? Shout out to Haydee!


Chas on Thursday, April 23, 2009 said:

Hey, looking forward to hearing more. Cool show! It's a good idea that you ahve all of the shows to listen to online. Too bad you don't have the first one.


Crystal Colon on Thursday, April 23, 2009 said:

This is a Great Show. You have a good thing here.


Angel on Tuesday, April 21, 2009 said:

The website is looking good! I liked having Haydee on the show; you should have her on more often. Good luck and keep it up!


Ev on Sunday, April 19, 2009 said:

I missed the introduction but picked up on the fashion advice—from the colors for this summer to the silhouettes especially how to dress your body and how to compliment the hips with a tunic and scarf. That was really good. I liked the way Heide talked about embracing yourself, being bold, hot and sexy. Thanks, I enjoy it!!! And, the fine points on Immigration were first-class. Good luck Jose on your show, it’s an excellent program.


Danielle on Thursday, April 16, 2009 said:

Congratulations on the new web site. I'm looking forward to you finishing it. I like the show, too.
