Former Lawrence Planning director Michael Sweeney has been laid off after the mayor tried to fire him and the council refused to allow the firing to go forward. Sweeney joined us to discuss the new Lantigua administration and the hypocrisy of Lantigua's speeches when compared to his actions. Lenny Degnan and Pat Blanchette and their shenanigans were prominently featured.

Audio clips of Lantigua that are so entertaining you have to hear it for yourself and City Attorney Ricky D'Agostino likens the sweeney firing to the D-Day invasion of Normandy (NO I'M NOT KIDDING)

In the third hour rock and roll legend EDDIE MONEY called in to chat with Tom about his concert tonight at the Tupelo Music Hall in Salisbury Beach (the old Pavilion)and revealed a bit about his personal life, his road to fame, his daughter's new music career and MORE.

IT WAS DON"T MISS RADIO!
