Nat, Mike and Dan are political beasts, it's on their passports and everything. They prove why at least one of those words is a relevant description with a thorough discussion of the key topics at hand. Honestly, they do: composers, Bond films, sports, what else is there...? With them to help on this front is friend of the show, very funny man and Americarnage's new sideline reporter: Tom Bell.

In other news: The Cannon of Carlson gets an airing; Tom has Eagles in his attic; the team try their hand at Monday Night Football intros; Andrew Luck overcame the Miami Dolphins, passing for a 433 yards and breaking the rookie single game passing record; in Oakland number 31 overall pick Doug Martin went insane – rushing for 4 touchdowns and 251 yards; the Falcons went to 8-0, patiently putting away the Cowboys, whose misfiring offence ad disorganised defence will be nowhere near the play offs this year; the NBA season is  a week old and all the talk is of the new look Lakers who are rubbish! Despite dumping Bynum and picking up Steve Nash and Dwight Howerd, LA lost their first three before Dwight put 28 on the Pistons in an impressive victory; it's awards season in the MLB, Nat gives us the low-down - Americarnage's place in Melky Cabrera's scheme is revealed; no Hockey, god damn it; Fantasy league update - do you care?; loadsa questions from the Bodeans Mailbag; awesome game from Hollywood and much, much more...

Nat and Mike prepare for Americarnage so comprehensively that there' nothing they can't deal with - not even the last-minute IR placement of Hollywood with no guest on 30-minute standby - so it's a Channel 4 show without having to look at them, win!

In other news: The big crazy circus came to town and a sell out crowd watched the Pats stomp all over the Rams in the rain; the Cowboys were nearly responsible for one of the great NFL comebacks – 23-0 down to the Giants they fought back and nearly won it in the last ten with a bomb to Dez Bryant; the Colts went to 4-3, fighting back to beat the Titans with an insane overtime winner from Vick Ballard; the NBA starts TONIGHT with seven games – the pick of which is probably the new look Lakers at Portland and Anthony Davis’ first game in the NBA as the Hornets take on the Spurs; the big trade news: James Harden and his beard have left the Oklahoma City Thunder to join Jeremy Lin in Houston; congratulations to your 2012 world series champs...the san francisco giants. Yep, 2 championship in 3 years for the Giants who swept the lifeless Tigers in a dominant show of baseball; loads of listener questions in the Bodeans Mailbag and some, some more...
