In Entertainment I’ve got the controversy around ABC cancelling “Last Man Standing” and the hackers trying to ransom the latest “Pirates” movie. Weird news brings a story about sex lessons from porn stars and getting “Winstoned.” The listener voted “Jackass of the Week” tells the tale of a pastor who died trying to walk on water, but with a twist.

Jim Parsons, who plays Dr. Sheldon Cooper on “The Big Bang Theory,” and partner of 14 years, Scott Spiewak got married
