On Today's Program

Departing from the normal format, today's show was all about the arguments for and against the legalization of marijuana. In hour one, special guest Robert White, who co-authored the book Going To Pot: Why the rush to legalize marijuana is harming America, explained why marijuana should remain illegal. MORE

Isn't the "War on Drugs" just a waste of resources when it comes to marijuana use? And shouldn't marijuana be a choice left up to the individual? As Glenn has become more and more libertarian over the years, he's found himself thinking about the legalization issue. That's why he invited Jacob Sullum, senior editor for Reason Magazine, onto the show to make the case for why marijuana should be legal. WATCH

As the Progressive chokehold on this country grows, the Constitution is being tossed aside. America's police force is looking more like the military. Tonight, find out which Progressive is responsible for these increasingly radical policies and what it means for our safety. WATCH

Glenn's been pretty open about his past drug and alcohol abuse, but for the first time on radio he shared the story of his experience with cocaine. Many argue that marijuana is a gateway drug that leads to more dangerous and addictive drugs — did he find this to be the case? Get the story HERE.

Still not sure where you land on the issue of legalization? You can listen to the full show on demand — whenever, wherever you want — and examine both sides of the issue. LISTEN

So after hearing all the different sides of the argument, where did Glenn, Pat and Stu all land on the issue? Find out HERE.

Fan poll: Where do you fall on this issue?
Should marijuana be banned in all cases no matter what? Medical marijuana only? Should the states decide — or should you be able to light up a doobie whenever you feel like it with no restrictions? After hearing the arguments, we want to know where you fall on the issue. Take our poll HERE.

Glenn responds to criticism that The Root is anti-police
Tonight, Glenn will premiere the latest episode of The Root, entitled Excessive Force. Many have seen the short previews and, for some reason, assume Glenn has gone anti-police. Anyone who has watched Glenn's show knows this could not be further from the truth. The Root will delve into the militarization of the police, but it will not be anti-police by any means. On last night's show, Glenn responded to critics and explained exactly what the core issues are that The Root will address. WATCH

Sen. Rand Paul launches 'filibuster' in protest of Patriot Act renewal
Senator and 2016 Republican presidential candidate Rand Paul launched a "filibuster" Wednesday afternoon in protest of the renewal of the Patriot Act, his latest stand against the federal government's invasive surveillance procedures. Get the details from TheBlaze HERE.

Did Louis CK go too far with his SNL performance?
While hosting the season finale of SNL, Louis CK delivered some pretty daring jokes about racism in America. The routine ignited an uproar on social media, but Glenn thinks he made great points about the mindset of most Americans. Watch video of the full routine and get Glenn's reaction HERE.
