ML is off doing good in the world, Erika steps up, Marc prepares a show, and Shawn happily derails everything into nothing.

STRAIGHT DOPE: Elrick is off the show again as he’s speaking to the Michigan Interscholastic Press Association to promote his “Eye on Michigan” student journalism endeavour.

Shawn found ML’s wikipedia page and we question who did the editing.  For some reason there isn’t a page for the “mildly interesting” Shawn Windsor.

Shawn starts quizzing Erica about her acting past and she tells us about Mrs. McNutt.

Erica expresses her love of true crime and then reveals that she helped open and close two cold cases.

Detroit Lions WR Jameson Williams has been suspended by the NFL for two games.  Shawn is more interested in his eating habits.

No one on the show can understand why there’s such a push to get the Menendez Brothers and Scott Peterson out of jail.

Some evil people want to move Halloween to the weekend because kids are soft.  Other people want to change the name to the Harvest Festival.

Shawn was alive in the 1980s.

Michigan and Michigan State face off this Saturday night and no one seems to care that much.

If you missed ML’s column on Sunday- you should go read it. It’s about a judge running in Wayne County who doesn’t seem interested in talking about his own legal record.

GEEK OF THE WEEK: Marc introduces the Soulmates to a Shock Doc in Virginia. Additionally, Marc reminds the audience about the wasteful and lazy Panda bears. They are also an arm of Chinese propaganda.

ROOM 7609: This time it’s a band that ML might only half-hate. Can anyone figure out who wrote the bass line for the Tom Tom Club’s “Genius of Love”?
