The first issue deals with issues of general ''morality''. The three guests for this debate are firebrand [[Pastor Richards]] (David Green), harried activist, mother and wife [[Jan Brown]] (Maureen Silliman), and naturist [[Barry Stark]] (Renaud Sebbane). [[Pastor Richards]] is a corrupt and wholly insane televangelist, who promises salvation (in the form of a radiation proof giant living space/effigy of [[Pastor Richards|Richards]]) to all those who pay him very large donations (he later reveals that he was actually planning on using the money to build himself a palace mansion in Hawaii). [[Jan Brown]] is an overstressed, overattentive mother who is cheated on (constantly) by her husband. [[Barry Stark]] is a naturist and a liar, with sexuality issues (he gets erections several times during the debate). By the end of this segment, [[Pastor Richards]] snaps, and, disgusted by [[Barry Stark|Stark]]'s nudism, pulls a gun on him and shoots him in the genitals, while [[Jan Brown|Brown]] passes out. [[Pastor Richards]] also ends up claiming the station as his own for a short while. | The first issue deals with issues of general ''morality''.
