Larry kicks off the last half hour by announcing that Carl DeSuze called in ill and he doesn’t know who will be here at 5:30 AM, maybe Muck!
Time Check: 7 Minutes after 5.
Next caller is Al who said he cannot walk due to suffocation as a young child when he experienced brain damage. This is a very sobering call for Larry, but he does very well handling the subject by asking Al some delicate questions in a way that only The Commander can do.
