Joel discusses the state of zero tolerance policies in schools around the country. Parents are far too overprotective today… so protective in fact that they can put their own children’s lives in jeopardy.
Joel discusses the trend amongst pediatricians to use kinder, gentler words to when referring to children who are grossly overweight or obese. This is all part of an effort to not traumatize children. But seriously, treating this with kid gloves does not help the fact that our children are getting fatter and fatter and jeopardizing [...]
Joel regales us with a tale of some street mutts in Thailand who were recruited by the police as drug sniffing dogs only to be fired for some rather typical canine behavior.
Joel discusses a recent article in which Paris Hilton, while behind bars, professes that she is no longer going to pretend to be a dumb blond… and just be herself… a dumb blond. Though, she does have a good point about the media’s overreaction to her incarceration.
Joel a new candidate for the position of Surgeon General and his silly analogies as to what is good and proper sexual behavior and he likens it to plumbing!
Joel whines about why we have been off the air with “Commentary with Joel” for two weeks, reiterates that Uwe Boll basically sucks ass, that we are getting our ass handed to us by a block of cheese and that Vladimir Putin doesn’t seem to realize the Cold War is over… and the Russians basically [...]

Joel discusses the story of a group of Chinese citizens who are trying to get the Bible classified as violent and overtly sexual… in essence, classify it as porn. Mel Gibson does nothing to help stop this.

Joel covers two short news articles. The first, your AOL password isn’t necessarily as secure as you might think. SHOCKING! The second, a boy in Washington state wakes up with a very bizarre pain in his ear.
