  Mark Koernke discussed local drug problems in his community, focusing on the prevalence of pharmaceutical abuse rather than illegal drugs, and criticized neighborhood watch programs for their ineffectiveness and restrictions. He examined how prescription medications like Ritalin are overprescribed in schools and hospitals, contrasted the government's lack of campaigns against pharmaceuticals with its war on drugs, and argued that people use drugs to avoid solving underlying problems like depression and back pain. The show included commentary on media censorship regarding drug references in music and culture.
