In this week's episode, Dana and Dan discuss "Friday's Child."  The guys share listener comments, including one from a guy who took us up on the "wife attend" challenge! Another listener sent us a recipe for a famous sandwich in Philadelphia called the Schmitter. Here is the link to the recipe. The guys also wonder if McCoy is the father of an alien child, how Kirk and Spock can make bows and arrows so quickly, and why Dana is so enthralled with the guest actress Julie Newmar, who is still alive -- and we would love to get her on the show!   Make sure to visit our sponsor, NorthShore Adult Diapers.
