Tonight's live episode of Fox Business Network's The Independents, which airs at 9 pm ET and then repeats again at midnight, will feature some fascinating interview subjects. Brandon Bryant, profiled in recent GQ piece titled "Confessions of a Drone Warrior," will explain the ins and outs of delivering death by remote control. And Detroit Police Chief James Craig will explain just why he thinks having an armed citizenry would make the Motor City a safer place.

There will also be a dissection of Rep. Peter King's attacks on Sen. Rand Paul over NSA spying, with GOP strategist/Sun Sentinel columnist Noelle Nikpour and Russell Simmons Political Director (!) Michael Skolnik; plus discussion about the fall of Fallujah, the advent of Blue Monday, and a science teacher losing more than 30 pounds by eating at McDonald's.
