Casting continues for...well, we can't say, but that means it's time for another "Best Of" for today's podcast. Phil will be back tomorrow for the Saturday BSP-Only show! Mavis Leonard kicked off the show to comment on the NFL domestic abuse scandals as she was being driven to the funeral of her late pinochle partner Ella Saban. She also was bugging her driver to "pull it up" at a McDonald's so she could get a quarter pounder with cheese. Ted Bell also got in on the discussion. But the segment went all wrong when Margaret went through the phone on Ted and knocked his "buck tooth bridge" out of his mouth. Then The gang talked about Scottish independence with Father James McQuarters as Father Staley, in the background, was nodding off. Dr. Jim Sadler joined the fray with his views on Ebola while he was also vaccinating school children at a local mall. The entire thing was interrupted by some 7 year olds that broke into a candy store and made off with the cash register. Don Berman returned to the show to heap accolades on one Kevin Conroy, the longtime animation voice of Batman, for volunteering to cook for the firefighters and rescuers at Ground Zero during 9/11...Don hung up on Phil at one point and Phil couldn't get him back on for awhile because no one in the channel 19 newsroom had ever heard of him... And David G. Hall called from the Bosell family pond where a gunfight breaks out between Steve and, allegedly, a group of "travelers," or traveling squirrels. Closing today was Dr. Ron Tarner discussing America's return to manned spaceflight, by bemoaning what he thinks is America's target: Venus. He wanted to go to Mars because he'd written a musical about it titled, "A Martian, Though I May Be." Sign up for a Backstage Pass to the official Phil Hendrie Show website today!

Phil is leading a casting call today for...well, we can't say, but that means it's time for another "Best Of" for today's podcast. The show starts with discussion of the Ray Rice video, which leads Margaret and Frank Grey to talk about a night both would like to forget. Then Harvey Weirman was interviewed regarding any possibility Rice will play pro ball again, and he commented briefly on net neutrality, but eventually got pissed and hung up... After that, Vernon Dozier was in rare form discussing the Atlanta Hawks and the perception their fans may need to go home to their MA-MA's. On the show briefly this morning was Jay Santos of the Citizens Auxiliary Police to talk about riot control. He was sidetracked trying to order some kind of a breakfast sandwich that kept coming back with not enough bacon on it. Closing the show is "I Remember Hollywood" with Frank Grey, as he gender-confuses his way through early Hollywood memories of agents, producers, and actors.

Phil gave the crew the morning off as rain was falling in Southern California and power outages were afoot.

Phil's working on his new pilot all day, so we brought in two guest hosts for today's podcast. First up is Bobbie Dooley, who called a halt to the violence she has visited on Steve and other men in light of the Ray Rice video. She did have Jay Santos come in and hog-tie both her husband Steve and staff announcer Gene Wiffner until they learned to keep their mouths shut while she is talking... Closing the show is Dr. Ed Elcott, who faces his toughest test yet as he interviews the "elemental/elevate" daughter of two near-Overlords, the 4 year old Beans Habershall. Dr. Elcott must endure the contradictory nature of the child, her peculiar babytalk and the judgment of the Overlords who may bring out the "Overlord Leveling" at any moment.

Phil has his last recording session of the season this morning, so we've cut together a "Best Of" to tide you over until tomorrow. Phil and the panel talked about hacked iCloud photos and, of course, it got around to Margaret and the possibility that her phone got hacked and that there's a photo out there of her "with it parked on Frank's nose." Then Jay Santos joins the show to give his two cents on why Apple screwed the pooch. In the next segment, David G. Hall called to remind Phil not to get so "cool" and "laid back" when he talks about so-called "Molly," the drug MDMA, which is also known as "Ecstasy." Phil and the crew were talking about the suspension of Denver Bronco Wes Welker for using Ecstasy during the Kentucky Derby. Chris Norton then called in to offer his professional knowledge on the subject. And then the show closes with guest hosts August Selsen and Lady Beth from our Labor Day special.

Mavis Leonard kicks off with a renewal of "Inner'essing Tidbits." The Ebola nurse is discussed by Phil and Margaret. She says she's tired of being called the Ebola nurse but Margaret figures she's "just some red-head looking to be the next media sensation. The whole thing probably gives her a thrill." The music service Shazam is dissected and Phil makes dire predictions for artists if labels start using it to determine what kinds of songs they should WRITE... Bud, in mocking the name Alvin Wang, sings a little ditty that actually has Margaret intrigued... We're getting a head start on Black Friday at The Phil Hendrie Show.
