It's called "The Revolution Starts Now". I just popped it in the player, and am listening as I write...

The Onion has an interview with Steve in the current issue. My favorite exchange (regarding victim's family's witnessing the execution of prisoners):

O: Why do you think people feel a need for that kind of closure?

SE: We're Americans. It's part of our culture. I don't consider us to be evil, I just don't think we know any better. We're a really young culture. We're hillbillies, and the rest of the world sees us that way. I travel all over the world, and probably the only worse rednecks than us are the Australians. And they're an even younger country. [Laughs.]
