Is Clinton Really Supporting Obama's Nomination?
Senator Hillary Clinton says she wants her delegates to have "their voices heard" at the Democratic National Convention. She made the comment recently at a fundraising event and the speech is now posted on You Tube. Some pundits say Clinton feels she isn't getting the respect she deserves from the Obama campaign. Larry talks with Peter Nicholas of the L.A. Times and takes listener calls about what role Clinton and her supporters should play at the Convention.
Violent Films
A new study from Dartmouth Medical School says violent films attract a considerable percentage of children between the ages of 10 and 14. As movies are increasingly accessible online, the number of children watching films deemed inappropriate for their age bracket is likewise increasing. Larry asks listeners to weigh in on the subject.
Is China Ready For The Olympics?

Larry and his guests discuss how China is dealing with the complexities of hosting such a prestigious international event. Guests include Clayton Dube, associate director of USC's US-China Institute, and Scott Tong, China bureau chief for Marketplace.
