HOUR 1 - What Joel Osteen is doing for Houston, Faithwire’s Billy Hallowell joins Mike Opelka to discuss the erroneous reports that megachurch pastor Joel Osteen was turning Houstonians away from his church, refusing to allow it to be used as a shelter. The truth is that the entire first floor of the structure is under water, and the church is coming up with ways to help the community in the days and weeks to come.
Mike Opelka talks with Genevieve Piturro of the Pajama Project, who for 16 years has been collecting and distributing pajamas and a book to children without. They have focused on the foster child population, but in the midst of the Hurricane Harvey tragedy, she is collecting for kids displaced by the storm – in shelters without the comfort and softness of home.

HOUR 2 - HARVEY Updates, how to help. Plus, North Korea fires another missle, and some other strange stories... Mike Opelka is perplexed by the performance art of Milo Moire, who allows strangers across Europe to touch her intimate areas in an attempt to demonstrate consent and combat rape – or so she says. Mike suspects that like many performance artists, she just wants attention.

HOUR 3 - Say No to Special Person’s Day, Australia’s Dr. Ruby Red Scarlet (who insists that’s her real name) says that Father’s Day should be changed to Special Person’s Day to be more inclusive. Mike Opelka says this is political correctness “gone absolutely hog freaking wild.”
Mike Opelka reports on Iceland’s horse registry committee, consisting of 2 people. They are banning any “foreign” horse names from being registered in their tiny nation, asking names to be of Icelandic heritage only. Is this racist, exclusionary, or ridiculous?
