Disagree with the Vice President all you like, but Jason's frustrated by the hypocrisy of politics leaking into the simple act of a national leader trying to comfort victims. He talks with listeners.

5pm Hour: On the DeRush-Hour, another honor for a Minneapolis restaurant. Plus, why was today a very different "first day of school" for Jason?

Today was the first time in a long time that Jason wasn't taking a "first day of school" pic. What was it like? He shares some thoughts and some of the feedback he's received.

On "The Lead" - will the Governor call a special session and if he does, will it actually accomplish anything? Jason talks to Blois Olson from The Daily Agenda. Then on "Page 2" - another honor for Diane Moua

4pm Hour: Jason talks about the State Fair attendance numbers - are they less than expected, and why? Plus, how essential are campfires to camping? And on DeRusha Eats - the Lexington is turning 90!

Jason talks with Craig Ritacco & Chef Lawrence about the big celebration coming next week as The Lexington celebrates 90 years!

Given the picture perfect weather for this year's State Fair, are you surprised the final attendance number isn't higher? Jason talks about the economics and psychology of the Fair.

3pm Hour: Jason starts the show by talking with listeners about how to keep schools safer on this first day of school for so many kids. Then he's joined by State Rep. Kaohly Her about running for mayor in St. Paul.

Jason talks to the State Representative who is running in a primary election to try and replace her former boss, St. Paul Mayor Melvin Carter. How would she approach the job differently?
