Pacifica's KPFK 90.7 FM is home to the most raucous, irreverent and politically smart radio talk show anywhere, the L.A.-based Spanglish-slinging Pocho Hour of Power. Co-hosted by nationally syndicated daily newspaper cartoonist and comedian Lalo Alcaraz, satirist and filmmaker Esteban Zul, voice impersonator and director Patrick Perez and wild improvista (often seen on MADtv) Paul Vato, the volatile breakout hit show has attracted a vast audience, star guests and IRS scrutiny. On any given Pocho Hour of Power you can hear satirical radio sketches, politically charged parody songs and even serious public affairs segments.

See the show live for the first time on stage at the Steve Allen Theater!

Past guests have included:
Ry Cooder (Buena Vista Social Club), The Blasters, Dave Foley (Kids In The Hall, Brain Candy), Aaron McGruder (Boondocks), Dr. Dolores Huerta, Mo Collins (MADtv, Curb Your Enthusiasm), Gillian Vigman (Sons and Daughters, MADtv), Father Guido Sarducci (SNL), Dan Piraro (Bizarro), Rick Overton, Ike Barinholtz (MADtv), Jerry Minor (SNL), Jay Johnston (Moral Orel, Mr. Show), Dino Stamotopolous, Scott Adsit, Lou Chalibre
