Three events of the week - one personal, one political and one religious - provide the basis of the opening rant:
- Jim talks about the recent energy audit on his house, and why everyone should get one.
- Mike and Jim discuss “power” politics, and why doing the “manly” thing is not necessarily the right thing.
- Then Mike gives his opinion on the Pope’s recent speech - all of it, not just the parts you heard about this week.
