In 2009 the city of Oakland, California, sent WALTER HOYE to jail for standing quietly outside an abortion clinic holding a sign that read, “Jesus loves you and your baby. Let us help.” Investigative journalist Robert Artigo wrote Walter's story, Black and Pro-Life in America. It's a shocking indictment of the for-profit abortion industry and its supporters in City Hall.

Renowned political scientist ALLAN SAXE has been informing and expanding young minds for nearly 60 years. His lessons are built upon a foundation of bedrock American history. Now, like many Americans these days, he's losing hope that our democracy can survive what he sees as a relentless attack on freedom and decency. America, he says, has lost its way.

DAVE GROSBY is a sports radio legend and my dearest friend in the business. We met 40 years ago in Sacramento and haven't stopped laughing since. The line that best sums up our friendship came from the Groz one night when we were both young and single, bellied up to the bar at Sacramento's Maple Room. The drinks were flowing and so were our tears of laughter. At one point, while catching our breath, he managed to gasp, "God, if only one of us was a woman!"

And we laughed again.

I'm in Dallas now and he's been in Seattle forever, but together or apart we will always be Morningman & The Groz.

I found MARK CUBAN in the back of a town car with his son stalking lobster claws in New York City. We spent a lot of our recording time trying to fix a lousy connection. We finally did but it cut our planned conversation time in half. Still enjoyed it a lot. He's a good guy. Here's Mark talking about the crappy economy, the Mavs, and his new mission to disrupt the prescription drug industry by making prescriptions affordable without insurance.
