Time Magazine Cover - 'Attachment Parenting' is the title of the Video Monologue today.  Andy bashes the mother who posed on the cover of Time Magazine with her 3 year old son for her own selfish benefit.  She says she's an advocate for Attachment Parenting, Andy calls it emotional abuse.  This child's face is being shown on the cover of a magazine.  Andy fears that he will be picked on a little later in life.  We got so many calls on this topic!  Some feel attachment parenting raises kids to be self absorbed and spoiled and overly dependent; others feel it's needed to teach children how to be secure and trust.  My favorite caller, though, was Mike who excitedly declared "The mom was hot!"  Thanks Mike.  Producer Miranda joins Andy in the studio for Bizarre News!  A churchgoer rips a man's ear off, an Elvis impersonator is charged with assault over a board game, and my home town of Louisville, KY makes me proud! - NOT.  :/

Next, Matt DeBord of the DeBord Report calls in to talk this week's top business stories.  They cover George Clooney's fundraiser, Facebook's $4 billion tax bill, Facebook's co-founder, Eduardo Saverin renounces his US Citizenship, and three new social sites.  A Hawaiian surfer catches a 78-foot wave and makes the Guinness Book of World Records.  Hooters announces a Mother's Day Special.  How sweet!  Andy is joined by Dr. Carole Lieberman to talk about her book Bad Girls.  Find out why men are attracted to them and how you can avoid walking into their tangled webs!  An Italian citizen becomes Mayor of his city by accident.

Entertainment Journalist, Kim Serafin calls in to give the Box Office and Entertainment Report.  Jennifer Hudson's former brother in-law found guilty of killing her family.  Mel Gibson update - those are always fun!  Romney gets 'bullied' by the media.  To wrap the show, Andy replays his fascinating interview with Blaine Harden about his book Escape from Camp 14.  If you missed it on Tuesday, here's your chance to hear it.  It's a touching true story of a boy who was born into a North Korean prison camp and was the only person to escape.
