What this Hell is this Labor Day thingy all about anyway? Did you have the day off? Thank the Union. Did you have to work? Then join a union! It's all about the worker on tonight's show...mostly. For two minutes it's about Jerry Lewis and Dean Martin, but mostly it's about the worker. And you know it should always be about the worker, right? Why do so many people vote against their own interests? It boggles the mind.

Are you getting educated about the upcoming election? It's not just about Hil and the Donald. There are so many propositions on the Cali ballot that it makes my head spin. Legalize Weed? Ban the death penalty? You better get reading, kids. And please be sure to vote this November. I'll be talking up the election during my last show in October to get you all ready for it.

Until then, enjoy this deep dish of labor delights from yours truly, Hell's Kitchen Radio, and Radio Valencia.

See you on the radio.

Enjoy.
