  • Boston Globe columnist Joan Vennochi and Boston Magazine contributing editor David Bernstein talked politics with Jim and Margery. They looked at lawmakers wading into the Market Basket protest, the gubernatorial race, and the Probation Department scandal.
  • After talking with Vennochi and Bernstein, Jim and Margery opened the lines to ask callers if they stood with Market Basket employees protesting the ouster of former Market Basket head, Arthur T. Demoulas.
  • All Revved Up! The Rev. Irene Monroe — syndicated religion columnist for Huffington Post and Bay Windows — and the Rev. Emmett G. Price III — associate professor at Northeastern University, and author of The Black Church and Hip Hop Culture — were back for their regular Monday segment.
  • A new study in Europe suggests getting to know your neighbor doesn't make you any happier. Agree, disagree? Jim and Margery opened the lines.
  • Seth Mnookin, a professor in the MIT graduate program in science writing, talked about his new piece in The New Yorker titled "One of a kind: What do you do if your child has a condition that is new to science?"
