A routine dive repair at a federally recognized Mobile dam led to an unexpected discovery, as divers found a hidden explosive device. A multi-agency response retrieved and detonated the explosive. Who is responsible for the dam bomb? Are there other dam bombs? We want some dam answers. Legendary (and a little crude) singer Clarence Carter passes away at the age of 90. We sing his one clean song. Rick shows how handy he is by using a hammer.
