Sometimes an obelisk is just an obelisk. "The obelisk symbolized the sun god Ra, and during the brief religious reformation of Akhenaten was said to be a petrified ray of the Aten, the sundisk. It was also thought that the god existed within the structure..." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Obelisk

Ancient Egyptian obelisks are designed after the petrified rays of the sun and were associated with the sun god Ra. They are not phallic, in Egypt or in Rome. Obviously the talk show host is just making this up to make you think he knows something about the Egyptian religion. You probably thought the obelisk was a tantric symbol, right? Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar.
