As we begin tonight’s show, there’s more on the toddler found wandering alone on Sunday! The dad claimed the child was neglected by a babysitter he had hired on Craig’s List, but it turns out, that was a baldfaced lie! The dad didn’t even leave the kid with a sitter; he left her home alone!

At 7:20, we talk to Alan Archer, who says these magnets will help you save gas money!

A new study shows that cars with bumper stickers are often piloted by aggressive drivers! I think it’s the other way around; the stupid stickers tick off guys like myself and make us drive aggressively! Personally, I hate bumper stickers! I’ll tell you why at 7:30.

At 8 o’clock, my hot, juicy, sexy, illegal alien girlfriend left a letter on my pillow and I have a bad feeling about it! Hanna Scott’s a chick; maybe she can help me figure out what this means! Plus, Channel 3’s lovely Beverly Kidd has some words of encouragement for me in my time of need! Can she help Gaydos pick up the pieces?

NBC will broadcast live coverage of Tim Russert’s funeral. As I’ve said before, the guy is a legend and he’ll be missed! However, I’ll tell you at 8:30, I just don’t want to see the mourning of his family and friends televised! It’s a tasteless ratings grab if you ask me!

9 o’clock brings us to a big flip-flop on the part of John McCain, but that’s not necessarily a bad thing! Maybe he’s the guy to help fix the gas situation!

Sex offenders will soon be banned from homeless shelters in Phoenix! So, where will homeless sex offenders go? We’ll talk to Councilman Claude Mattox about it at 9:30!

At 7 o’clock, my illegal alien girlfriend wants to know how many women have been loved by Gaydos! What do I do? What do I say? I can’t help it if women love the Gaydos!

To start hour number two, a teenager is trying to fight bullies with a YouTube video, but it’s not going to work! You’ve gotta talk to those guys in a language they understand and that’s fighting!

Yesterday was Fathers’ Day and Barack Obama took the opportunity to urge African American dads to be more involved with their children! At 8:30, I couldn’t agree more! Pictured below is Obama’s often absent father.

Speaking of bad dads, another one has gone on Craig’s List to find a babysitter and now—I hope—he sees the error of his ways! We’ll talk about it at 9 o’clock!

Then, I hate to tell you this, but a whole new wrench is getting thrown into the ugly fuel situation! Just when you thought it couldn’t get any worse, gas stations may soon be banning the use of credit cards!

At 9:30, we’ll have our weekly visit with Sam Donaldson, the crown jewel of the Gaydos After Dark political team! We’ll discuss the sudden death of Tim Russert, as well as Al Gore’s endorsement of Obama.

Finally, nobody wants to see the execution of a will end up in court! Just ask the late Leona Helmsley’s doggy! He’s down ten million dollars today!

Starting out tonight’s Gaydos After Dark, we’ll mark the passing of NBC’s Washington bureau chief Tim Russert. He was a classy guy, who I watched every Sunday on Meet the Press, and you can bet the world of news is going to miss him!

At 7:30, we have an update on the small children found walking on a freeway on-ramp yesterday! Would you believe this is not the first time this has happened with these kids! The dad was too busy boozing to supervise his offspring! And the Mom—she’s still AWOL! Sounds like this neglect could have—and should have—been stopped long before now!

Plus, did one school go way too far to prevent drunk driving? I don’t think so! At 8 o’clock, we’ll tell you about their shattering dramatization.

At 9, we separate the truths from the old wives’ tales of buying gas in yet another “Gaydos Experiment”!

Then, as we spend a few more minutes remembering legendary journalist Tim Russert, we’ll hear a tense on-camera moment between Russert and a powerful political figure.

Ron Paul is officially out of the Republican race (he got the memo a little late) and victims of a plane crash consider eating their fallen captain! At 9:30, these stories and more make up this edition of “Gaydos on the News”!

See you Monday, everybody! 7 to 10, 7 to 10, 7 to 10; that’s how I roll!!!

We come out of the gate at 7 with the most vital issue of the day: out-of-control gas prices! We’ll find out how much you really know about getting the most for your gas dollar in another “Gaydos Experiment”!

Next, you may be surprised to find out that a WNBA player is turning her back on the U.S. to play for the Russian Olympic basketball team! Well, the U.S. team didn’t want her! What else was she gonna do?!

8:30 brings us back to the gas issue and the so-called efforts of our so-called lawmakers in that department! I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: these people have to work together or there will be no solution!

A Kentucky father took his little guy out in the sun with no sunscreen! The toddler got a bad sunburn, including large blisters, and the dad ended up in jail for abuse! Of course you need to protect your kid when he’s out in the sun, but this dad doesn’t need to be in jail! That’s our 9 o’clock topic!

We close out the show with crazy Kirk Gossett! He’s suing Gilbert High School on the grounds that his son’s graduation got rained out! Didn’t you know, Kirk? it’s not nice to sue Mother Nature!

I did it! I said when gas prices topped $4 a gallon across Phoenix I would ride a mule to work. It took hours on “Daisy” the mule…she was sweaty and stinky…I’m tired right now and dehydrated because Lloyd forgot to bring water but I made it to the KTAR studios. I’m calling it Mule Fuel!

A triple submersion (near-drowning) at a townhouse pool in the valley. How does a parent allow three kids ages 4,3, and 2 to be in the pool unsupervised. Tragically this is not the last time you’re going to hear a story like this.

Mule Fuel part two takes me to a Phoenix gas station where they had the gall to do something—right in front of me!—I’d never seen before.

Hillary Clinton got out of the race on Saturday…or did she? It took her ten minutes to even mention the other guy…oh what’s his name…oh yeah Senator Barack Obama! What’s up with two thirds of the speech being all about her…wasn’t she supposed to praise Senator Obama? If Obama implodes in a few months, I see her getting right back in the race!

Is Mule Fuel ridiculous? Only as ridiculous as four-dollar-a-gallon gasoline! I might have looked awful on top of Daisy the mule but she got me all the way to work. In part three I introduce you to Marvin, the man who brought us Daisy the mule. I also talk about a woman I saw riding a bicycle who must‘ve been on her way to work.

Road Rage strikes again in central Phoenix. A Grandmother dies and her four-year-old granddaughter gets shot!  Two cars get in a minor fender bender and it results in someone dying.  How does that happen? It’s not safe to get out of your car if you’ve been in an accident. What’s the matter with people?
