The show has an interview w/the author of a new book on James Dobson called "Jesus Machine".

It's an interesting discussion. My wife and I have gotten newsletters from Focus on the Family for years. I've been turned off as I've watched JDobson get more and more entwined w/the Republican party - so that it'd hard to tell where one starts and the other one ends.

A detail the author of the book does not mention in the interview is that Dobson now does less Focus on the Family and is more involved w/Focus on the Family Action - the polical body that's been spun off of FOTF. It's something Dobson went to great lengths to describe in newsletters - highlighting that donations to FOTF Action are not tax deductible b.c. Action does political advocacy.
