Summary
A somber monologue today as John pays his respects to the many victims of 911. He discusses the politicizing of the anniversary by the GOP and their persistent refusal to blame the Saudi's for the tragedy. Then, comedian Rhonda Hansome joins the crew and they speak with award-winning investigative journalist Bob Hennelly on the aftermath and residual effects of the 911 attack. Next, John gathers another panel: comedians Rhonda Hansome and Frank Vignola; and women's rights activist and journalist Nida Khan. They chat about the unity, changes, and racism that came from 911 and they take calls from two different Bill's - both in New Jersey - who call in to share their own 911 stories. Then winding it up, the guests say goodbye and promote their latest works and shows.
