Synopsis

Stephen’s disappointment at Paulina Porizkova's departure from *Dancing with the Stars* was palpable, amplified by the fact that her husband, Ric Ocasek, is a friend to the program. He then shifted to a discussion of oil deposits discovered in the Arctic Ocean near Russia, followed by an unexpectedly emotional reaction to the proposal of including Italy within the Axis of Evil. Later, he spoke with author Jabari Asim about the N-word, a topic explored in Asim’s recent book.
