Sam talks with Carol in this episode, who has been on before, but is now introduced because Sam failed to keep his studio entropically consistent. We talk about Christian fiction! Where it is awesome, where it is terrible, and where it is terriblawesome.

This week, Tyson and Ranjan join Sam in a wide ranging discussion. We follow up our discussion from last week, talk about the similarities between students and prisoners, the importance of David Bowie in international politics, and hanging out in Twisp.

Satan, coming to a Tacoma elementary school near you! Peter Cook and Dudley Moore are risen! Muslims in space! Also, an election happened. I hadn’t expected to hear terms like “political arsonist” and “racist adjacents,” but Sam, Ranjan, and Josh talk about it all. (-Becky)

How do we start this episode?  We could go with “CUBS WIN,” or “Cubs win the Series!” or even something like “Chicago-Style Holy Cow.”   We don’t know.  In this tumultuous episode, Becky and Dave help Sam navigate a series of stories that range from sausage to personal terror.   To say nothing of baseball.

This week’s continuation of the Gritty Reboot Series has Sam and Dave taking down the most annoying argument atheists hear: Pascal’s Wager.   In the second segment, Carol (who might be new or not) and Becky handle some listener feedback, with (hopefully) some aplomb.
