Jack Armstrong takes on a series of conservatives over the government shutdown and causes all of them to meltdown over trying to guess his ethnicity.....Phil talks about the passing of astronaut Scott Carpenter and gets hung up on how to pronounce Gus Grissom's name, at one point calling him Bus Gargle....The film "Captain Phillips" is reviewed as are some other Paul Greengrass' films, Bourne Supremacy, Bourne Ultimatum, and Born Free.

Doug Dannger and Margaret Grey reviewed "The Fifth Estate" starring Benedict Cumberbatch as Julian Assange, the Wikileaks man. Both of them said that the film may be hurt by the fact there's an actor in it who has the name of a giant rabbit. Dannger also claimed that Cumberbatch said in an interview he'd have a massive job trying to "butch up" Assange's image... Bob Green. David G. Hall and a caller named Gene from Bakersfield talked about a story out of New York concerning a group of motorcyclists that went after the driver of an SUV who appeared to have hit one of the them. Bob said he rides on weekends with three accountants and an attorney and they call themselves the "Road Angels." Green basically said that if you mess with them they'll be forced to "make a statement." Gene, a member of a central California club, said he thought Bob's group should call themselves the "Road Apples" instead.

Larry Grover and his mother Gloria talked to Phil about the government shutdown and how it now affects the payment of a "death gratuity" to the families of soldiers killed in Afghanistan. Larry feels that in order to help the Tea Party keep the government shutdown and bring Obama to his senses these families need to suck it up a little longer. Tonight's show also featured Vernon Dozier and Joe Dickhead discussing fan interference in a play during the Detroit-Oakland ALDS playoff game. (Link below) Vernon talked about being taunted by a fan during his days playing college basketball and in fact had a tape recording of a dramatization of the incident. It still causes Vernon pain to this day... Father James McQuarters weighed in on the "Redskins" name issue, saying that the name "Fighting Irish" doesn't bother him, an Irishman, as long as they don't get to personal about the drinking thing.

Tonight we had Jay Santos and General Gaylen Shaw commenting on two special forces operations over the weekend...a Delta commando raid in Libya and a SEAL Team 6 mission in Somallia. Jay claimed that SEAL communications code includes words like "tight," "loose" and "lube." Dr. Ron Tarner talked with Phil and the crew about the fossil of an ancient primate that may be the oft-spoken of missing link. An artists rendering shows the animal with a smile on its face as if, according to Dr. Tarner, its saying "when I come down out of these trees and hit the plains below there are gonna be some changes around here..."

Listen to Steve and Ted butcher the Denver at Dallas game! A real classic.
