Theme: "Labor Day" / "Parents"
Notes: In honor of the U.S. Labor Day holiday on September 5, we pulled songs related to work, working, labor, and management. In addition, because David's parents were in town to visit (and in the studio with him), he played a few songs for "parents" and "family" to start off the second hour of the show.
