Robert Green, otherwise known as Bob, the CEO of Frazier Foods joined Phil to talk with him about Prop 19, an initiative on the California ballot to legalize marijuana in the state. Bob believes the legalization of marijuana will be good for his grocery business because when people smoke weed they get hungry. Bob told this to his employees and told them that he wanted them to vote for it as well. When challenged over the fact that employees who said they wouldn't vote for it no longer worked there, Green said he'd always thought they went off to "work in a religious mission or join a church since they were morally opposed."He couldn't recall firing them outright. Next hour it was our friend Ted Bell, owner of Ted's of Beverly Hills. Ted was happy that President Obama was able to stop the terror threat posed to the country Friday by bombs place aboard aircraft bound for the United States. But, he said, he was a little sad that maybe just one of those planes didn't turn into "a fireball on the horizon. I'm just saying one...and only one fuselage floating in the Atlantic" might have given the Senate and the House back to the Republicans this Tuesday because Republicans rank high on security issues. Oh well, sighed Ted. You can dream can't you?

Tonight we opened with Doug Dannger, Orange County Courier reporter and "gay man and gay journalist." He talked with Phil about the passing of actor James McArthur and the "racism of Hawaii Five-O." As Doug sees it, because the primary Asian group in Hawaii is (or was) Japanese there should have been Japanese actors and Japanese characters on the show, not Chinese as was the case with Kam Fong playing Chin-Ho. The same is true of the current Hawaii Five-O with Koreans playing Polynesians. Doug said the whole audience is complicit in this racism. "This is the same as the entire cast of the Cosbys being replaced with coal-black Cubans and nobody saying anything!" Doug said the reason why people weren't calling right away is because he smoked TV viewers racism out and they were hiding. Father James McQuarters of Belmar Academy joined Phil to get it said about the Maura Kelly column on "gross fat people kissing" on TV and the reaction it created on the set of TV's Mike and Molly and across the country. "Of course it makes us sick to look at fat people kissing....but you don't come out and say it!" Father McQuarters said they hang a sheet in the school gym behind which fat kids can go and dance and hug and do it away from the view of other people. He even works fat kids out by having them do deep knee bends "holding a crucifix, hewn from heavy wood, across their shoulders. It reminds them of what I go through trying to get the fat off their asses. Frankly it also reminds me of what I go through."

Tonight Larry Grover, running for state assembly in California, talked with Phil about his opponent in the campaign, warner Nolan. Grover freely admitted he "couldn't make the words come out of his motuh right" when it came to the issues, not even knowing what a "bond issue was" or an "assessment." But he felt he could focus attention on Mr. Nolans personal proclivities. The fact that he watched Glee with his kids, listned to Justin Bieber music and enjoyed "The Suite Life of Zach and Cody" made Mr. Nolan a possible pedophile. Not to mention him enjoying the Rocky Horror Picture show with it's "men in women's underwear." 17 year old high school student Justin McCelroy came on the program claiming he's known he is gay since kindergarten and that the bullying has gotten out of hand. Mr. McCelroy wants permission to home school himself and even give himself tests 'rather than go back to that school and be terrorized." The fact he was seen making out with a young lady in the back row at "The Social Network" and that his best friends are the guys he said were bullying him certainly didn't add up to his being gay. But hey, why would would he lie about that other than to take the rest of the school year off, giving himself an occasional test.

In our first hour, Margaret Grey and Phil discussed an news item about a four year old boy who unwittingly shot his mother with a 12 gauge firing birdshot. The woman was okay but Margaret said the incident may not have been all that innocent. With millions of years of DNA and hormonal change working inside of them, a women's sons are  potential animals. Margaret never goes anywhere with Jason Jay Delmonico unless she's carrying mace or pepper spray and she damn sure never dresses provocatively! Dean Wheeler from the Northern California Holistic Center joined the program to talk about a federal court of appeals striking down an Arizona law requiring proof of citizenship from people before they can vote. Bravo, says Dean. Illegal immigrants are needed to vote since the legal American citizen is turning the country to warm crap with his vote. Yes, Dean says, he voted for Obama. But he made a mistake. He needs illegals to vote to balance out the lousy vote he's sure to cast next time as well.

Bob Green, CEO of Frazier Foods talked with Phil about his strong belief in family during these trying times. That's why any woman with a stroller containing more than one kid is not allowed in the store until she ties the kids up to a "colorful hitching post" outside. Mr. Green believes that a woman with lots of kids in a stroller is looking to lure a man in with her helpless and overburdened "act." It happened to him with a girl named Ashley. "I'd rather leave a kid of 6 months home a lone for an hour than risk a half a million in cash because that's what she cost me." We welcomed Bobbie Dooley of the Western Estates Homeowners Association on the program to talk about Facebok. Ms. Dooley's sons Seth and Dylan and her husband Steve appeared in a photo on Seth's Facebook page. In it Seth and Dylan were laughing at a girl seemingly tied up nude on a bed and Steve was grinning at the camera with a beer. "It was a satire for 'Be Funny Or Die,'" said Bobbie. "The girl was supposed to be Rosilyn Carter." Bobbie says she isn't the kind of woman that would approve that kind of thing. "I'm well dressed, I have a large home, I own an Escalade, I'm a great interior decorator. Do I look like the type that thinks its funny to see her husband on Facebook in a jockstrap?"

Doug Dannger, Orange County Courier entertainment reporter and self-described "gay man and gay journalist" told Phil he's surfing Surf Beach, near Lompoc, California, as soon as it's reopened. The beach was closed Friday due to a shark attack that killed a young man from Riverside. Doug said that if you get into the water and show "human authority and humaness" the shark will think tiwce about attacking not wanting to look bad. However Doug has also made sure he'll have spotter craft and look-outs on scene in case a "retarded shark" decides to make a run for him. We spent an hour with Raj Feneen as well this evening, an Egyptian-born businessman living in the States with his wife and son. Juan Williams saying he felt "skittish" when he saw people in Muslim garb felt like a betrayal to Raj since Mr. Williams is an African-American and "should know better." But Raj also said he too felt skittish but only because seeing Muslims in religious or traditional garb means you're seeing ones "just off the boat" and more likely to be fanatics.

West Virginia State Senators Curt Queedy and Guy Barton joined Phil to discuss a so-called Christian Flag flying over a North Carolina War Memorial. The city says it violates seperation of church and state. And the state senators agree. But a great many of Curt's constituents are veterans and they want that flag to stay. Says Curt: "I need to get re-elected so even though seeing that flag makes me want to puke the lining to my stomach up, I'll tell the veterans I'm with them til after the election." Says Guy, "A good-looking woman and a prize winning hen won't ever walk down the same street" or some such colloquial garbage. Later, it's Gregory Baugh, an ex-fire battalion chief trying to get his job back. Mr. Baugh was attending a Super Bowl party in February, 2002 when a call came in that an old brewery was burning. In minutes another call came in that the roof of the building had collapsed. And then finally a call that said two of his firemen were missing in the blaze. All the while Baugh told Phil and the audience that he was desperately trying to leave but because of "low blood sugar, I needed just a piece of ham and some potato salad." Then, when finally out the door he stopped for gas "because an Audi doesn't do well on a half a tank. It leaves carbon." At the gas station "the kid who takes the money was watching U2 during the half-time show and I sort of got mesmerized too because of the blood sugar." Baugh was fired.

Margret Grey was beside herself with rage and desperation tonight as she related to Phil that her brother, Ray, has moved in with a wealthy woman, scion of a prominent Pennsylvania family. Margaret is sure this means all family festivity will be moved back east and away from her and Frank. "I don't know why but when I think of this woman, I fantasize throwing her body parts around a room like in that one Jack the Ripper picture I saw." When Phil expresses shock, Margaret presses the point home. "If any member of my family chooses to head back east for Thanksgiving or Christmas, may God help them." Next up was Don Berman from Channel 19 News, on to talk about a special news segment debuting on Monday, "A House Is Not A Home." This feature will look at the foreclosure crisis and how some "foreclosure mills" are rubber stamping documents without reading them. Never mind the fact that Don took as a gift a watch and a weekend in Miami at a company condo from one of the firms he was imvestigating, he found nothing wrong with what they are doing. In fact, he thinks they are doing great work, "clearing these houses out so that REAL people can buy them."

It was Ted Bell tonight, president of the Beverly Hills Automoble Association, protesting the high number of tickets police seem to give to drivers in Mercedes and other "HPV" cars (High-performance vehicles) Ted feels that if a man drives an HPV (His is a 55 T-Bird, two-tone) he is more likely to drive safely. Why would he want to wreck a beautiful car while people that drive "Smart Cars and PT Cruisers probably can't wait to wreck them." Later it was Harvey Weirman, retired attorney. Phil discussed with Harvey the case of a firefighter putting the video of a fatality crash on YouTube and how the victims parents saw it. Harvey mentioned a case he's involved in. An old man drove his car into a "vegetable mart" while the man's grandson video-recorded the whole event, then later gave it a soundtrack and put it on YouTube. "That's different though" said Harvey. "The kid did that to reach out to anyone his grandfather hit so they could get their contact info. Not to pay for damages. Just to acknowledge they did in fact contact his grandfathers car in an unfortunate manner and he and his grandfather are sorry they did that."
