Guaranteed Human.

It's that time.

Lock and load.

The Michael Vary Show is on the air.

Right now, there's a lot of fallacies about Latinos,

and we want to clear that up.

Oh, yeah, like what, officer?

Well, first of all, not every single Latino is Mexican.

I'm glad you noticed.

Different kind of Mexicans. Puerto Rican Mexicans, Nicaragua Mexican Mexican.

I knew nothing in Mexican culture. I'm originally from the Midwest. I moved to Los Angeles. Like Cinco de Mayo, I didn't even know what it was. My neighbor's Mexican, I asked him. I mean, in Midwest, we call it Tuesday, you know. I asked him, I go, what is it? He goes, it's our independence day. I go, who'd you beat? He goes, the French.

I'm like, well, who didn't?

You know, I don't know if it's something to get quite this wound up about Jose.

But if margaritas are half-price, I'm all about there's Cinco de Mayo.

I'm going to buy. The French The Battle of Pueblaio

It's also an excuse to drink tequila on a Monday morning at work for Lewis.

President Obama will mark the holiday with a reception at the White House.

I wanted to take a moment right here because on Monday, Cinco de Mayo way too early made sarcastic references

to the way some Americans celebrate the holiday, and it was not our intention to be disrespectful, and we sincerely apologize for those references. You know, after 20 years in this business, anyone who knows me knows where I stand on diversity and inclusion. So to those I let down or feel betrayed, I hear you, and I'm sorry.. We want to go over to Lewis now.
