In listening to an old edition of High Society Radio, I heard the guys talking about a Nintendo DS game called Spanish for Everyone. Ostensibly, it’s a game designed to help kids learn Spanish, but some of the scenarios presented in it are kinda racist methinks. Miguel’s a thief with the cops chasing him? A Spanish-speaking bull? A shady-looking Tío Juan (in Tijuana)? A trampy Gina Vasquez offering to teach the kid “many things”?

Whatever happened to Muzzy?
