US Secretary of State John Kerry fell in Switzerland and fractured his femur. At the time we go to press, he is recovering from surgery to pin his thigh bone back together. This show asks the important question, “Will Iraniain nuclear disarmament be curbed by Kerrianian femur dislegament?”  (We don’t even know what that means). We also discuss tattoos, tanning, apple watches, and pills with tiny sugar needles in them.

Tip:  Eastern KY has one of the nation’s highest rates of vision loss.  Diabetic eye changes, cataracts, glaucoma, and macular degeneration are the top causes.  Smoking and obesity are to blame.
