Hour 1

:00 - Program opening, sponsors, and the man "whose math is also fuzzy...."

:01 - All The News That Isn't

:05 - Guest Interview--Author Candace Bushnell

:23 - John Thulin's life isn't quite like Candace's characters, but he can try to glam it up. Now with Jeff Hamann at his side things are certainly looking different. Listen in for an introduction of Jeff H., and this tune "Falling In Love With Love."

:29 - Michael's biggest fan from Mobile, Alabama, Sally, is in the audience today, so let's take a minute to meet her. Then we've got Ron from Wisconsin Rapids who does nothing and Trystana who is named after a character in a Catherine Deneuve film. How would you spell that?

:35 - The Four Disclaimers and the Whad'Ya Know? Quiz with Alice whose 5th-grade class is listening and Jeff who is not a fan of women's boxing. Play along and test your knowledge of the candidates' cholesterol and how long it takes for 2/3 of the world to see the Mona Lisa. There are big prizes at stake!

:51 - John and Jeff H. soothe us with some jazz until the end of the hour.:00 - Hey Macarena! Everybody sing along with Jim Packard Luterhan Dance Mix, then we'll get into the program opening, sponsors, and the man "who is convinced his tomatoes have been gentically altered by something his neighbors did in their yard..."

Hour 2

: 00 - Program opening, sponsors, and the man "who swears the lady bugs have started biting..." Let the great biting lady bug discussion begin. We'll only believe you if you are an entomologist.

:02 - Thanks for the Memos--Human Waste

:07 - The Place To Be--On the campaign trail with Paul Begala

:16 - John and Jeff H. take us out of a political mood and into a romantic one with "The Lamp Is Low."

:20 - In the audience today we've got Anne who is a retired activist. This makes her an in-activist. Then, how did you prepare your brisket for the High Holy Days? Here's a good recipe, but the onion soup mix comes close to Presbyterian in preparation. Then from brisket to British with some folks in the audience pretending to be from England. Really, they're from Middleton. Listen in and you decide.

:35 - Whad'Ya Know? Quiz with Olivia the journalism-school graduate and Mark who plays in the band Hubbard's Cupboard. You'll be a winner if you have knowledge of ancient Chinese toilets, the author of the bodice-ripper "Sisters," and schadenfreunde.

And we're out of time. Tune in next week for Town of the Week, Walden, Colorado!
