Nigel Farage mocked EU official Jean-Claude Juncker's call for a European army by referencing the theme song to the British sitcom "Dad's Army." Meanwhile, the suspension of Jeremy Clarkson from "Top Gear" is analyzed as a potential PR stunt to drive global demand for the show's simultaneous premiere in 50 countries. The hosts predict Clarkson's eventual reinstatement after the controversy generates sufficient international buzz.
