## Resource

Tune in to the eccentric and unpredictable world of late-night talk radio with Walter Sterling on "The Other Side of Midnight". This episode delivers a wild mix of topics, starting with military veteran and intelligence expert Edward Jones unpacking Secret Service security blunders, the White House Correspondents' Dinner "nerd prom," and international affairs. Next, psychologist Dr. Deborah Mandel joins to debate Walter's controversial theories on why half of all marriages fail, tackling everything from Walter's belief that husbands have no say in their own homes to the disastrous effects of pre-wedding strippers. Cap it off with a gritty true-crime tale from retired NYPD detective Vic Ferrari about a juvenile robbery with a tragic ending, and Walter's candid, humorous reflections on parenting his 21-year-old daughter during "lesbian acceptance week". If you want late-night complaining and mansplaining, your dial is set to the perfect place.
