Starting point is 00:00:00 Warning, the following podcast contains words that might offend people that might be offended by words. This week's episode of The Skating Atheist is brought to you by Blue Apron, a better way to cook. And by our Eli Bosnick in five words or less contest. Today's winner is the legendary Rismacool of the Rismacool Publishy Stuff Empire, who had Won't Wrestle Me for Charity. But don't worry, if he doesn't cave, we're going to set that up for Not Charity as soon
Starting point is 00:00:32 as possible, just for the love of the sport. Either way, please keep sending us your best five words or less using the hashtag BosnicSkate and you could be the next winner. And now, Skating Atheist. This is Matthew and Eric from theating Atheist. This is Matthew
Starting point is 00:00:46 and Eric from the Odd Atheist Friends podcast. We say fuck a lot. And we did, in fact, evolve from filthy monkey men. It's Thursday. It's August 24th. And it turns out I bought all these backer buckets for nothing. I'm no illusions.
Starting point is 00:01:25 I'm Eli Bosnick. I'm Heath Enright. And from New York, New York, Secret Lair, Pennsylvania, this is Scathing Atheist. On this week's episode, the Jews started all the water wars. The Atlanta Falcons ramped the embarrassment factor right back up before the season even starts. And Donald Trump will try to get teenage girls pregnant. But first, the season even starts. And Donald Trump will try to get teenage girls pregnant. But first, the diatribe.
Starting point is 00:02:02 When asked on CNN how Heather Heyer would be remembered, her pastor said, quote, this event will be remembered as an occurrence for decades to come end quote leading astute people everywhere to wonder what the fuck that idiot was doing on cnn now in fairness i want to point out i'm not a hundred percent on the quote there might have been a slight paraphrase couldn't find the interview online to double check it but it was something like that it was at least that stupid in fact this guy had the absolute best dumb guy trying to use smart words performance i have ever witnessed and that was hardly his best nugget of pseudo perspicacity when asked about the significance of the white national rally he said pretty much quote we've had events in england and we've had them in paris and this event happened in the united states
Starting point is 00:02:39 end quote so you know in case you were wondering about the geography of the whole thing, he's got you covered. But by far my favorite and the only one where I'm definitely 100 percent of the quote. Don Lemon asked him about that, this neo-Nazi guy that publicly defended the dude who ran Heather Heyer over at that riot. And the pastor said, actual definite quote, I don't see how you can defend the actions of a person who would impugn the life of another person. actions of a person who would impugn the life of another person, end quote. The interview basically opens up with Don Lemon saying, yeah, this guy is Heather Heyer's former pastor. Welcome to the show. And the pastor going, thanks, Don.
Starting point is 00:03:12 Some of my best friends are black. And then it just goes downhill from there. In fact, the dude is so spectacularly stupid that even though I was watching this shit as I was falling asleep after like a 14 hour work day i had to sit up write down a few notes get dressed go upstairs and tell heath what this guy thought impugnment and if this was just like this one guy struggling with the only language he knows sputtering his way through an ill-advised interview on cnn's overnight block this would be a facebook post not a diatribe but this is hardly the first time i've seen some jackass preacher trotted out on the news like he's
Starting point is 00:03:44 about to offer up some fucking insight and while they might not all be as vacuous as this asshat was they've never had anything more relevant to say you know and I'm getting really fucking sick of seeing pastors priests rabbis mullahs and preachers presented as though they're about to drop some kind of erudite sagacity on us I mean granted with the Heather Heyer thing they'd have brought on anybody who had any real claim to having known her, but their questions would have been stuff like, what was she like and what do you think motivated her activism? But because this guy's sporting self-professed expertise
Starting point is 00:04:14 and shit people used to believe before we knew better, Don's asking him to offer up his orphic thoughts on the ethical implications of the riot. He's asking about the moral direction of the nation. And by the end of it, this CNN anchor winds up Christianity's PR rep and starts saying shit like, well, as a pastor, it must really disturb you to see people resorting to violence, huh? And you might say, like, Noah, calm down.
Starting point is 00:04:37 It's, you know, CNN's catering to everybody. Majority of their viewers are religious, and those people might want to know what a pastor has to say on the subject. But first of all, fuck you for interrupting my diatribe i'm in the middle of something here and secondly fuck them for wanting to learn about morality from somebody with anti-qualifications i mean you know apparently a lot of people want to learn about immunology from idiots but that's not an excuse for cnn to replace sanjay gupta with jenny mccarthy and thirdly again i'm not complaining about these guys coming out talking about religious implications. I'm bitching about him being offered up as experts on moral implications. I wouldn't take issue with it if they brought up some future and they said, hey, what are the religious implications of this Nazi march in Charlottesville? And he says, well, Jesus forgave all the people who chose the right religion or something like that. You know, I have nothing to say. So, yeah, there are perfectly appropriate times to interview pastors on the news. You could ask them questions like, so what the fuck are all you Christians on about now?
Starting point is 00:05:27 Or what time does your soup kitchen open? Or what's with all the child rape? But the idea of these guys being brought up as experts on morality and ethics is almost as egregious as thinking vehicular homicide is a particularly harsh form of impugning. I mean, look, we have experts on morality. They're called ethicists. And not only are they subjected to rigorous academic requirements, they're also not beholden to a book that says gay people and women who fuck their boyfriends should be murdered in the name of community service. But instead, we're treated to a ceaseless parade of people with little to no academic qualifications and a clearly stated agenda that supersedes informing the public, regurgitating bumper sticker platitudes in the least offensive Bible verses. informing the public, regurgitating bumper sticker platitudes in the least offensive Bible verses. So not only are we being robbed of possibly interesting points with somebody who might
Starting point is 00:06:08 have some expertise on the subject, but we're also reinforcing the bullshit narrative that religion is connected to moral behavior, right? At this point, we're advertising religion's marketing narrative. Never mind the fact that religion is on the opposite side of morality in almost every social controversy in this country. Never mind that they're the last holdout against birth control and gay rights. Never mind that they're legally exempted from gender equality. Never mind that their ethical justifications come from pre-scientific interpretations of
Starting point is 00:06:34 imaginary events. Never mind that their entire edifice exists to cloud our moral intuitions rather than clarify them. We're going to offer them up as fucking experts. But look look religious leaders aren't experts on morals any more than homeopaths are experts on medicine and confusing those two areas of expertise are equally dangerous you know i know some people are going to accuse me a hyperbole on that but look there are a number of truly complex moral issues that our society faces
Starting point is 00:07:00 and grandfathering religion into the conversation for political reasons leads to a misinformed population on the low end of the spectrum and terrorism on the high end in fact one could easily argue that mistaking religious dictates for moral ones is the most dangerous mistake humanity ever made and apparently we're not done making it they're talking about you jesus interrupt this broadcast and bring you a special news bulletin. Joining me for headlines tonight are two ungrateful motherfuckers who saw exactly the same amount of full eclipses I did. Heath Enright and Eli Bosnick. Fellas, you ready to shut the fuck up about that for seven years? I had a meatball sub for lunch.
Starting point is 00:07:39 Chats. It's a fun thing. Have fur. Damn straight. And now that we're clear on that, we'll take a break for a word from this week's sponsor, Blue Apron. Hi, welcome to Generic Restaurant Aimed at Children. I'm a non-offensive kind of sort of cartoon character that got revamped in the aughts to be cool,
Starting point is 00:07:54 and now I'm just kind of a horrific amalgamation of cartoon cat and stepdad. Right, right. Hi, I'm an exhausted parent who's made mac and cheese 18 meals in a row. I was hoping to literally eat anything else. Well, mac and cheese! Well, have you tried Blue Apron?
Starting point is 00:08:14 What's Blue Apron? Is it another Cars movie? Please, for the love of God, tell me it's not another Cars movie. No, no, it's not. It's not. Let go of me. Sorry. Sorry. Just's not another Cars movie. No, no, it's not. It's not. Let go of me. Sorry. Sorry. Just cannot take another Cars movie. Well, it's not that at all. No, it's the number one meal delivery service in the country.
Starting point is 00:08:34 You see, for less than $10 per person per meal, Blue Apron delivers seasonal recipes along with pre-proportioned ingredients to make delicious home-cooked meals yourself. Wow, that sounds way better than... The cardboard that we're legally allowed to call pizza if we spell it with a Y? I mean, yeah, better than that, but my kid's a picky eater, aren't you, son? Yeah, see? Well, with Blue Apron, you can customize your recipes each week based on your preferences. Blue Apron has several delivery options so you can choose what fits your needs,
Starting point is 00:09:09 and there's no weekly commitment so you only get deliveries when you want them. Oh, wow, that actually sounds great, too. Okay, but I'm not a great cook, by which I mean I'm a parent, and if I pay attention to anything but Junior here for too long, he grievously injures himself. Broke my arm! See? You know what I'm talking about? Spent too long talking to you.
Starting point is 00:09:31 Broke his arm. Yeah, no, it's no problem. Each meal comes with a step-by-step, easy-to-follow recipe card and pre-proportioned ingredients that can be prepared in 40 minutes or less. Heck, I use it myself to make sure I get fresh, home-cooked meals for less than the price of a handful of unwashed tokens.

A better way to cook. table with the other bleary-eyed parents remembering what sleep was like sure do sure do blue apron a better way to cook i'll put it in the ball pit and now back to the headlines
Starting point is 00:10:33 in our lead story tonight according to a recent story by the sunday telegraph some number of the kids that were raped by their catholic priests have been denied compensation and this is real i am not being at all facetious in my word choice here because those kids were asking for it the exact words they use were gave consent so this is absolutely a horizontal paraphrase because you know why would you be dressed like a sailor if you weren't looking to get fucked? Am I right? Am I right? I'm not. Right.
Starting point is 00:11:07 Okay. Okay. Counterpoint. No. No. Hands down. Hands down. No counterpoint.
Starting point is 00:11:12 Just baby Eli. I want to fuck an adult. I'm curious. Question for you. When did it flip flop? Like when you were 15, were you sexually appropriate just for a little bit there and then it switched it was a weird day it was a weird day it's like when you change sides in paintball and people know not to shoot you but with cum so like paintball yeah and uh how does it work now? Like, are you headed towards a fetal attraction?
Starting point is 00:11:46 Oh, let's not go into the details here. Let's not do a detailed dive into this. Rude. Like you have the whole Thai tribe to yourself. We'll talk about it later. The main villain in this story, the main villain in that last story, obviously, was Eli, apparently. But the story that I was talking about, the main villain is still the kid rapists and the institution that spent decades
Starting point is 00:12:07 and billions of dollars covering it up. But there's a mini boss in this one as well. And that comes in the form of a UK agency called the Criminal Injuries Compensation Authority, which apparently gives money to people that get raped by priests. But apparently, not if those kids were slutty. And he showed up to his baptism wearing just a diaper get this motherfucker out of here i'm not going to ruin the reputation of this church
Starting point is 00:12:34 for 20 centuries of action yeah so okay apparently some of the children that applied for compensation were denied on the grounds that they you know know, quote, gave consent and quote. And if you're wondering how a child consents to being raped. Well, let me tell you. Hands down. Yeah. No, apparently the answer is at least on occasion drunkenly. All right.
Starting point is 00:13:00 So one of several cases highlighted in the report involved a 12 year old girl whose 21 year old rapist got her drunk before leading her into the woods and raping her. The rapist pled guilty, but the government denied her compensation because a she had gone into the woods willingly. B, she had not been the victim of violence, you know, unless you count the rape. C, she emerged from the woods happily. And D, she wasn't a virgin. What the fuck? Their hearing was basically Andrew Dice Clay doing Jack and Jill. Oh, what a fucking whore.
Starting point is 00:13:35 No money, gavel. Think about this. Some guy finished writing that decision and then didn't blow his brains out. If that doesn't keep everyone else on the earth from suicide, I don't know what will. I do not know what will. Ray Comfort. That's damn right. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:13:54 So, yeah. Quick message to the Criminal Injury Compensation Authority. First of all, raping kids doesn't get more moral if they come. Now you tell me. I mean, you've been wasting your time eli yes that's actually numbers one through nine on this list so take some time let that sink in guys but also your misunderstanding of the term age of consent is so profound that you're risking england's claim on the fucking language all right don't make us change it to americanese you saw
Starting point is 00:14:23 what we did with french fries all i gotta do tweet Trump about it, and he'd grab his executive order crayons in a heartbeat. Don't make me tweet Trump. Yeah. One warning. One warning. Exactly. And in swinging a Swiss news tonight, Swiss hotel owner. Thank you.
Starting point is 00:14:40 Thank you. Swiss hotel owner Ruth Tommen is in hot water. You'll get that in a second. This week. So good. For taking a proactive approach to solving the problem of dirty Jews in her hotel. Again, nailing this. Wait for it.
Starting point is 00:14:54 Rewind in a second. You're going to love it. Namely, she got in a little trouble for hanging signs in her hotel reminding Jewish guests and only Jewish guests to take a shower before they use the pool wow usually the swiss are a little more subtle than that like maybe just a sign that says our entire national economy is built on nazi gold but don't just single out the jews as obviously don't want to swim here i like it it's subtle it's Okay, but let's be fair here, though. Jews have the most historical reason to ignore people with umlauts in their name asking them to take a shower, right?
Starting point is 00:15:32 I can see how they would have to give them more emphasis. But even more, that would make me even more suspicious, I feel like. Now, I should point out, Tolman has apologized profusely and she admits that she would have worded the sign more carefully claiming that what she meant was that everybody needed to take a shower and she only wrote jewish on the sign because orthodox jews tend to swim clothed and will often skip the shower because of it okay well but then it should have said orthodox jews and fat irish kids in middle school who also wear shirts in the pool at least be fair and balanced and say heath enright
Starting point is 00:16:12 and the jews yeah fair and balanced unlike middle school very easy to push over a little like a little wagon you just blame anyway uh it should be pointed out because we cut through the bullshit on this so she's a big fat liar one if she meant everybody she would have written the word fucking everybody pretty sure that's what that word means two everyone knows orthodox jewish people don't bathe and they smell bad they wear big black fucking dementor cloaks around all day and the weird fur hats in the blazing sun then they come into your toy store where you work at and they ask if they can have free samples that's just a true thing and you're not allowed to say is that like it's a true thing you're not allowed to say like hi andrew torres here legal counsel for puzzle in a thunderstorm llc i'm just popping
Starting point is 00:16:58 in to let you know that tickets are still available for god awful movies live in Austin, Texas and Salt Lake city, Utah. Yeah. Or, or the fact that, and did I mention there's a platinum night ticket available? See now I always thought that that was, if you buy a platinum ticket,
Starting point is 00:17:15 you get to eat and drink with the guys. You get to watch the movie the night before the show, you'll get front row tickets to the show and you get a gift bag with all of our merch. Great swag. I want you to check the show notes from this episode for ticket links and more. That's a good point, Noah. And I'm not afraid to say it. Totally true. Kind of like the N-word, everything that just happened.
Starting point is 00:17:34 Exactly. Now, obviously, there's been a huge backlash. Israel's deputy foreign minister demanded the Swiss government publicly condemn this swiss hotel owner which she said indicated the prevalence of anti-semitism throughout europe and her hotel was dropped by booking.com which at least according to twitter means she'll now turn into a nazi yeah we really need to be nicer to people who are on the fence about Nazis. That's right. Important.
Starting point is 00:18:06 Also, we need to visit the Rust Belt during campaigns. They're sensitive people. Fragile. Fragile is the word. However, Tommen does have some defenders like Swiss lawmaker Roger Daines, who is not an anti-Semite, just so you know. Even though he said on Facebook, if anyone should apologize for the Swiss hotel incident, then it's Israel, quote, for its excessive tolerance of ultra-Orthodox Jews
Starting point is 00:18:33 who prevent peace in Palestine. And for which he immediately got a ton of shit and deleted the post. That's how the internet works. Now no one will know. Exactly. The point is, yes, Jewish people smell bad, especially the dark wearing ones,
Starting point is 00:18:51 but you're not allowed to point it out in official signage. That's pretty simple. Or on this podcast, theoretically. And in smells like teen parent news tonight, the Trump administration made another terrible decision about spending this week that was very clearly based on pandering to ignorant religious assholes who make up a pretty big chunk of his base. Well, actually, let me start over.
Starting point is 00:19:18 We're playing nuclear chicken with a lunatic man baby in North Korea. The White House staff is crawling through sewer pipes like Andy Dufresne to escape. The jury's still out on homicidal Nazis being bad. And also the president is about to completely defund a program that helps prevent teen pregnancy. That's what he's defunding. Oh, okay. So really, it's like fourth place. But hey, maybe the Trump administration just figures that how often trump appears on tv
Starting point is 00:19:45 kills enough boners that it balances out yeah so uh it's easy for this one to fly under the norad radar because they're pretty fucking busy right now but this is definitely happening this teen pregnancy thing the administration is completely doing away with the teen pregnancy prevention program, which, in case it's not clear, is all about idiot kids not having babies. It's also a great way to prevent those idiot kids from having to kill their baby with an axe at Planned Parenthood, which is standard. Not that those clinics are going to have any fucking funding for axes pretty soon, but see what I'm getting at. Dude, do they use an axe? I haven't they they did
Starting point is 00:20:26 in that video that carly fiorina saw us axing and screaming yeah now in fairness i'm guessing trump's plan is to create jobs in the junior high daycare sector but still not great again it's the wrong thing he's going about it no the wrong way. No, wait a minute. He's trying to make America great again. Poor children. Coal mining jobs. I think we see where this is headed. Yeah. And working in coal mines definitely reduces teen pregnancy. Boom.
Starting point is 00:20:55 Market solution. Ooh, free market. John Smith. Alright. Excellent. Well, the whole thing is pretty depressing, though. Adam. I'm actually amused by one little detail uh pregnant 11 year olds walk funny two little details of the story that are to me so uh trump's cutting the teen pregnancy prevention program also known as the tpp program if you hadn't noticed and i'd say it's like 50 50 he
Starting point is 00:21:26 just saw tpp on a budget plan somewhere and was like fuck i thought we were done with that can only imagine what happened next what happened next tyler tall tyler get in here big big guy. Still 5'6", sir. I'm 7'1". I honestly don't know if you think you're 7'1", or if you don't know the word 71. Can it be both? I'm sorry, did you need something, Mr. President?
Starting point is 00:21:59 Yeah, this TPP thing is back. I thought I killed it. I'm going to make the deals myself. I'm a dealmaker typewriter. I thought I told you this. No, sir. This is the TPPP. It's the teen pregnancy.
Starting point is 00:22:11 What are you, crazy? Keep your voice down. I thought that tape was G-O-N-E. Those bastards have it? First the bus and now this. Damage control. Let's start a war with France. Dear Twitter, I hate France. No, I. Let's start a war with France. No. Sir. Twitter. I hate France. No.
Starting point is 00:22:26 I just meant that gone is spelled with an E. Okay. And this is not anything that you think it is. This is a program to prevent teen pregnancy. Oh. Okay. Well. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:22:39 How does my base like it? Well, the evangelicals don't like it. And don't hold back on me titanium don't hold back the other ones think it's the tpp and they're mad that you didn't get rid of it like you said you would well then it's settled it gets the axed yeah i'll get right on it sir and tyler tyler they were teens in the tape i i know, sir. I've seen it. Eleven teen. And in anti-antichrist news tonight,
Starting point is 00:23:17 Baptist preacher and handsome devil, who is a fucking crazy person, so who cares, Gene Kim, took to his YouTube channel this week to cut through the bullshit and let us know some specifics about the antichrist in a way that all great teachers do by writing random words on a whiteboard on his YouTube channel. Hey, hey, a thousand monkeys do that for a thousand years and suddenly you're majoring in one of them. So what? I don't think the sarcasm is justified here.
Starting point is 00:23:41 is justified here. And the good news is, we now know the Antichrist is a giant shrimp, a tiny giant, and a black Catholic Syrian Jew. What? Okay, actually, it was just the last one, because the first two are way less silly. Yeah. A bit of an oxy-dumbass there.
Starting point is 00:23:58 Honestly, though, that sounds like a super interesting dude. Like, if I'm at a dinner party, and there's a black Catholic Syrian Jew, I'm asking questions. I'm going over there. Like, how does the Catholic Jew thing work? What can you inject into my arm? Who's your guillotine guy?
Starting point is 00:24:16 Lots of cool stories you're going to get from that guy. Exactly. Now, listeners might remember Pastor Kim for letting his YouTube viewers know earlier in the year that the earth was, contrary to popular belief, hollow and that the Christian hell was literally in the core. But this week he used his squeaky little boy voice to cry out against our ignorance of the visage of the Antichrist again. That again of a Syrian Jewish Catholic black guy. of a Syrian Jewish Catholic black guy. So keep your eyes open for a seriously confused guy halfway between a temple and a church
Starting point is 00:24:50 looking torn. And while you heed that warning, we'll take a quick break and hand things over to my lovely brunette, blonde, tall, short, bachelorette wife, Lucin. A man wrote the Bible? A whore is what she was. If it's a legitimate race.
Starting point is 00:25:04 If it's a slut, right? Cooking can be fun. Hey, I'm proud of a man wrote the bible a whore is what she wants if it's a legitimate race cooking can be fun hey i'm proud of a man this week in massages so i wake up at fucking 4 a.m to drive my ass out to the middle of fucking nowhere to see my ass in eclipse the sky is blue crystal, all fucking morning and all afternoon until one douchebag of a cloud decides to park its ass over the sun for exactly totality. And that's it. So I drove a thousand miles to see 98% of an eclipse that now I got to wait another seven fucking years for the next one. I'm going to have a goddamn lady president while I watch that shit and I better be able to fly over the clouds with my fucking moon boots this time.
Starting point is 00:25:49 Lucinda, can you, um, you want to do the, uh... I will in a minute. Also, whatever transformer super city they are building the entire state of Ohio into that turned my 13-hour drive into a 16-hour one, better have a gas station bathroom that doesn't look like a Jackson Pollock painting
Starting point is 00:26:06 made with human shit. Are you done? Yeah, I'm done. But while I'm all worked up, let's give a little gas to our first wrecked award of the night, New Zealand pastor Logan Robinson, who is trying to match the motherfucking
Starting point is 00:26:18 single cloud over Carbondale, the title of the thing that most pissed me off this week. Now, this Steven Anderson wannabe wandered into my attention this week for the dire warning he had for Jacinda Ardern, an agnostic member of parliament, leader of the Labor Party, and hopefully the next prime minister of the country, saying, quote, the Bible actually says that it's a curse for a nation to have a woman ruling over them. That's a curse. Don't
Starting point is 00:26:45 vote for Jacinda. She needs to shut up, go home, get in the kitchen where women belong, and bake a cake for a boyfriend. That's where she needs to be. She's wicked as hell, end quote. So yeah, this motherfucker can go ahead and start fucking himself now and keep it up until I see a solar eclipse. But it's not all bad news this week. Well, kind of, because while I may have missed the coolest astronomical event visible from this planet, I can at least take solace in the fact that there's some long overdue positive news out of Lebanon. Specifically, that the Lebanese Republic has finally repealed a law that allowed alleged rapists to escape punishment by marrying
Starting point is 00:27:25 their accusers. And if you're wondering where this barbaric rule comes from, well, you need look no further than the nearest hotel room Bible. Deuteronomy 22, 28 says, if a man happens to meet a virgin who has not pledged to be married and rapes her and they are discovered, he shall pay her father 50 shekels of silver. He must marry the young woman, for he has violated her. So yeah, glad to see we're finally letting the part of the book that recommends stoning non-virgins to death out of law. And while I yell about clouds traffic in Ohio some more, I'll turn things back over to Noah, Heath, and Eli.
Starting point is 00:28:01 Thank you, Lucinda. And in Slumdog Dozen era news tonight, I get to follow up on Twim with some late-breaking, read, Lucinda already recorded her shit, misogyny news out of India. And it's actually good news. Oh, all-you-can-eat samosas. Uh, Dash Avatar 2. Nope. Actually, in a victory for women's rights in the world's second-most populous nation,
Starting point is 00:28:23 India's Supreme Court issued a ruling that will no longer allow Muslim men to instantly divorce their wives by saying they look like their mom's ass. Okay, but non-Muslim men can still do that? It's a weird ruling. And either way, I feel like if you tell your wife she looks like your mom's ass, a divorce happens. It's just slower now. I mean, we don't know that. Some people's mom's asses look nice you don't know yeah that's okay well experiment noah get lucinda testable claim skeptic come on live on air and i noticed you're the married guy and it was your idea you didn't know my wife is dead all right So up until yesterday, apparently divorce law in India worked on this
Starting point is 00:29:06 Beetlejuicean system that allowed Muslim men to divorce their wives simply by saying the Arabic word divorce to them three times. You may have heard my wife mentioned it before on the show. And if even the effort of saying talak, talak, talak was just I just divorced somebody. Jesus Christ, don't listen to the show babe but if even that was too much trouble they could also legally divorce them via text message or facebook okay but i feel like twitter's a better system because you know brevity is important there when you're doing that you want to just limit it now there are probably some people who are like hey you know what divorce is too anyway. So I want to point out that according to India's own statistics, only about one out of 20 women divorced in this fashion receives any kind of child support following the divorce.
Starting point is 00:29:53 And, of course, I think it goes without saying, but I'm going to say it anyway. Muslim women seeking divorce were never able to avail themselves of this six syllable fix. Well, it's pretty obvious why. Just come home. Oh, I wanted red it's pretty obvious why. Just come home. Oh, I wanted red juice. Yeah, they were all out, so I got this. And, you know, it's a snowstorm outside, so I figure this would be... Oh. Okay.
Starting point is 00:30:16 To lock, to lock, to lock. Sorry. Don't say it. I feel like all women aren't your wife. All right. Well, mine's dead. So weirdly does it.
Starting point is 00:30:28 Speaking of recently passed. My late wife. I kind of hope this doesn't become a running joke for you, but it might. I never know where the muse takes me, Noah. Sometimes she kills my wife. All right. Hard steer back onto subject here. Years of work by a number of human rights organizations in India seem to have finally put an end to this nonsense fucking policy.
Starting point is 00:30:55 On Wednesday, three of the five Supreme Court judges declared the practice to be unconstitutional. And among the people celebrating the judgment was India's Prime Minister Narendra modi who called the ruling historic adding quote it grants equality to muslim women and is a powerful measure for women's empowerment end quote and let me be the first to say slow the fuck down what neither muslims nor women are all the way to equality in your country and i can throw that stone from the lofty height of the country that elected the Muslim ban slash grab them by the pussy guy. And in upside down morality news tonight. Thank you.
Starting point is 00:31:35 Thank you. Pastor Logan Robertson isn't just pissing off Lucinda this week. Yeah, we listened to this week of misogyny. Please stop spreading rumors that she's just Noah using a voice modulator. Hurtful, untrue lies. And the fact that no one's ever seen them in the same place at the same time proves nothing. Nothing, I say. That's why she's always popping out of little booths.
Starting point is 00:31:54 Lucinda's actually the next Doctor Who. I didn't want to spoil it. None of this. Noah always says she's bigger on the inside. And definitely none of that. I'm telling. Big hearted. Big hearted. Obviously that's what I meant. Use your tiny fists on your balls like a speed bag.
Starting point is 00:32:12 Anyway, as our unbathed, barbaric Australian listeners know, gay marriage is currently being decided in their barbaric wasteland of a country. An issue that was decided in America months ago. get with the times people yeah the world is past that time to settle the nazi question now we've moved on guys guys
Starting point is 00:32:36 stop pissing off my exit strategy please that's true that's true. Anyway, Robertson, who looks like a chameleon standing in front of a rabbi, had this to say about gay marriage. He really does. Yes, he does. Had this to say about gay marriage this week to his congregation. Quote, Someone emailed me the other day about our church. I believe he lives in Auckland.
Starting point is 00:33:03 He's like, what's your view on homo marriage? I was like, my view on homo marriage is that the Bible never mentions it. So I'm not against them getting married as long as a bullet goes through their head the moment they kiss. Because that's what it talks about. Not homo marriage, but homo death. There's no such thing as homo marriage. That's what should happen. Now, we've got Christians that would rather side with them, side with their cute little fag cousin or brother
Starting point is 00:33:29 or whoever it is, than with Christians and actually preach against it. End quote. What the fuck? Well, at least it's a good thing Australia has plenty of moderate Christians to point out that killing gay people with bullets isn't mentioned in the Bible.
Starting point is 00:33:46 It's rock throwing. Let's be reasonable. Exactly. So they'll pull them back. Hopefully. I just had a terrifying thought. What if Ken Ham was like the best they had? Right.
Starting point is 00:33:57 Like they just gave us our, their, their very best. And wow, he's a William Lane Crick. We brain drained them. That's pretty fucking sad. Give my beauty change minds and win hearts.
Starting point is 00:34:11 He's going to build a giant boat. And look, while my New Zealand accent is both flawless and adorable, that does not make Robertson's words any less horrific. I know some of you were thinking that. robertson's words any less horrific i know some of you were thinking that the video of him giving the speech has been taken off youtube uh for hate speech which means he's probably going to turn into a nazi now as i said earlier but robertson has no regrets telling the new zealand herald that he wasn't trying to inspire vigilantes to kill gay couples because he believes that's the government's job sounds like they're going to need a royal commission into institutional responses to shooting gay people at weddings they have weird commissions down there in new zealand
Starting point is 00:34:52 australia yeah royal commissions in countries without royalty are just generally weird and commissions on institutional responses to child sex abuse was weird for the same reason until about this time last year. Yeah, fair. So, so that. And finally tonight, in SJW Cluck News, the Chick-fil-A restaurant chain is set to open its newest location this weekend inside Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta, Georgia. New home to the Atlanta Falcons. I want to say Polo. They play polo? It's actually pronounced po-yo.
Starting point is 00:35:27 Oh. How? It doesn't have a Y in it. NFL football. Anyway, the problem with this. I think that's their word. It's just football. The problem with this, other than Chick-fil-A's history of funding anti-gay hate groups,
Starting point is 00:35:41 is that the Christian idiots who founded the company Chick-fil-a are still refusing to be open for business on sunday inside a pro football stadium to be clear i'm sure they'll crush it on tuesday and wednesday games yeah yeah now they got a couple thursday nighters this year now okay true story my wife sees this shit on twitter she reads me the headline and my response was, the onion? Literally. That's literally how I went down. All right. Well, yeah, the Chick-fil-A ownership is revolting.
Starting point is 00:36:13 But just to be fair, got to mention two things here. First of all, the stadium is going to be used for events other than just the Falcons games. So the business isn't all on Sundays. Still stupid, but not like infinitely stupid. So good job. Also, despite being run by raging bigots and donating to charities full of raging bigots and then claiming they wouldn't do that anymore
Starting point is 00:36:37 and then continuing to definitely still do that right now, despite all that, if we're being fair, that chicken is fucking delightful. And it continues to cause internal conflict for fat, atheist, gay people and their allies across the South. Atheists. Which is basically just ReasonCon and nobody else. So they make plenty of money on six days a week, but still, you know, boo. What we're saying is every time you
Starting point is 00:37:06 eat Chick-fil-A, you have to suck a dick. Then you're square. You're square. You're fine. I'm just picturing a couple of cows holding up a hastily painted misspelled sign that says, eat more dick. So, the Falcons aren't doing great with optics lately?
Starting point is 00:37:24 False. They have some of the keenest eyes in the animal kingdom. Fun fact. Shows what Heath knows. Okay. Email Eli as much as you want for all this stuff. So here's a few of their problems. Their new stadium is named after the Nazis' favorite car company. They're selling homophobic chicken, but not on game day.
Starting point is 00:37:44 And one other small thing. They're coming off the worst meltdown in Super Bowl history. Yeah. So just a couple quick reminders for the Atlanta Falcons. One, if somebody smashes a Mercedes into a throng of your bigot fans, it's everybody's fault about equally. Right. The alt-left Cleveland fans came in swinging tomahawks. Do they hold any blame? Any at all? Excuse me. Excuse me. Any blame swinging tomahawks. Do they hold any blame? Any at all?
Starting point is 00:38:05 Excuse me. Excuse me. Any blame? Tomahawk chuck. Nope, that's the Indians. Yeah, no, you had the right city, though. It's the Braves. Next time.
Starting point is 00:38:18 But yes, exactly. Spread out the blame equally was the point. And reminder, too, field goals. That's a thing you can do for scoring points. It's also an option in the football. You can go up 11 points if you're up eight, and then you get three, you'd be up 11. It's like a two-score game at that point.
Starting point is 00:38:36 Just check it out. I feel like at this point, they're just taking advantage of the fact that the only bar they're trying to clear is our franchise player doesn't torture dogs to death for fun anymore. Get with it, Arthur Blank. Get your shit together, man. All right.
Starting point is 00:38:51 Well, looks like Atlanta definitely needs some gay chicken and also a gay friendly chicken place that's open on Sunday. We are happy to help with both. But just a second one for right now. Let's put 30 seconds on the clock. Ideas for a sodomite rival to Chick-fil-A. Go. Oh, okay. Bedfellows Wild Wings.
Starting point is 00:39:11 Wings, rears, ports. Thought Guys, Bonagide Chicken. Popeye's Bonafide Chicken. All right. What about Gay FC? We do chicken left. Alt left.
Starting point is 00:39:29 We're pretty much the same as Nazis. Craxby's? That's a regional joke. These are hard. There's like three chicken places and Heath already used those. I got a regional one. Manitney's. Manitney's fried chicken. Kennedy's fried chicken.
Starting point is 00:39:46 Kennedy's. New York, New Jersey chain. Does very well. Men at Knees. That's a true. They have those. Kennedy's. And it sounds like, yep, Men at Knees. What about the hard cock buffet? Not even a chicken place. Fine.
Starting point is 00:40:02 I guess we're bringing the pattern. No big deal. Whatever. Because cock, like coq au vin. Yeah. No. All the cock you can eat. Buffet. Maybe wings, dicks. What am I going to do? I was late to write my shit. You're lucky it wasn't
Starting point is 00:40:17 chicken and stovetop butt stuffing. Oh, I like that actually. Alright, ready? I ran out of chicken places. Ran out of chicken places. So now we're going with Golden Corral. After you gave shit to Heath for doing that, huh? Okay, but I ran out second. I ran out second is what matters.
Starting point is 00:40:36 I'm the punster. All right. Hold in your pal, be gay and fill. Golden Corral Buffet and Grill. Oh, Jesus Christ. Hold in your pal, be gay and fill. Golden Corral Buffet and Grill. Holding your pal. Be gay and fill. I don't even see why you felt the need to explain it.
Starting point is 00:40:51 I'm Keith. Holding your pal. It might as well say that on the sign for Golden Corral. It's the same. Please tell me you got a good one here, Heath. All right. How about Chick-fil-A-cio? Two girls, one coop.
Starting point is 00:41:06 Coop. Cup. There we cup That's like the best one Yeah, yeah, and now that I'm picturing Those two cows doing something completely different I suppose we can close out the headlines for the night Heath, Eli, thanks as always Fuck the sun Hells yeah, the sun's great, the clouds Not so much
Starting point is 00:41:22 And when we come back back this music will stop playing as we meander our way through the torturous twists and turns of the book of alma we recognize that following along with the plot is about as easy as writing down the dying instructions of a demented grandparent about how to find the family gold on a wet napkin with a quill. And since near the Argo Bargol definitely isn't a thing, we're proud to once again present Mormon Peace Theater. I am Nehor. People of Alma, listen to me. Everyone will be saved, not just the pre-Christians.
Starting point is 00:42:02 Alma is totally full of shit. Well, I'm Gideon, and I say you're wrong. Yeah, well, murdered with a sword says what? What? Got him. Nehor, I sentence you to die. Gah. Ballsack.
Starting point is 00:42:19 Dude, that sucks. Tell me about it. How are we evil priests supposed to make a living now, you know? We could not kill people with a sword. Or we could say we believe what we preached and then Alma and his people won't be able to oppress us. I feel like this was about the sword murder thing. No, no, dude, trust me.
Starting point is 00:42:42 It's about the lying. Oh, boy, do I sure believe what I'm saying right now. Okay. I guess. Me too, also. No, my religion is right. Ow, ow, ow. No, my religion is right.
Starting point is 00:43:00 Guys, guys, guys. Both of your religions are wrong. Ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow. You almost got my eye. My eye. I am Amlekai, and I think Alma is a total tool. Whatever, let's have an election then. Gah.
Starting point is 00:43:20 Okay, so Alma got 2.8 million more votes than Amlekai did. Yay, go! So, I guess you guys just, uh, hate farmers, huh? Is that what it is? Wait, what? No, I don't... I win anyway. My Amlekai's decided that I win anyway. Hmm. I mean, well, it's the worst that can happen. I feel like there are mistakes on both sides,
Starting point is 00:43:43 and what we need now is to unite behind our new leader, Amlekai. Okay, you we can kill. So, a huge surprise, I know. I've decided to kill all of you and all of your followers. Wow, that's incredibly surprising. Guys, there were no signs of this in the election. I am shocked, shocked and shook. I'm on your election. I am shocked. Shocked and shook. I'm on your side.
Starting point is 00:44:07 I always have been. Really upset. Oh, what a surprise. Amalekai turned out not to be great. Hate you. Bah. And so it was that a great battle between Alma and Amalekai did begin. Morgan, lay down a sick beat.
Starting point is 00:44:26 My name is Amalek. I damn if I'm not going to take all your land. And I got dynamite. Laminates, they just flock to my stand. And I'll kill all of your followers like a lamb to a lion. So anyway, Amalek who? That's the hill you're going to die on. Come on, bitch.
Starting point is 00:44:39 All right, all right, all right, all right. Listen to this. Kick it, kick it. My name is Alma. And I always go gah. And me and the Almanites are going to give it to you raw. Kick it, kick it. My name is Alma, and I always go gaw. And me and the Almanites are going to give it to you raw. God's on my side. I'm going to kill you with a sword-um.
Starting point is 00:44:52 And I'll spend so long describing it, your cruel die of boredom... Drop. Killed it. Go Alma! This is what we think rap battles are. Hey Alma, great job in the battle. Thanks. Gah. So, uh, what do you want to do with all these, um, these bodies?
Starting point is 00:45:12 Gah, I don't know. You need to build a bridge for us to get home. Really? Yes. Gah. Really. Wow, your highness, this bridge Sure Sure smells pretty bad Is that a foot? You guys want to take my shortcut or not? Gah
Starting point is 00:45:31 100% a foot Okay, so just to be clear, gah The Amlekites are bad, but not as bad as the Lamanites Because they wear shirts and stuff But they're both bad and Kind of black, gah You're the good guy in this book They wear shirts and stuff, but they're both bad and kind of black. Gah. You're the good guy in this book.
Starting point is 00:45:53 And so it was for a few years that the Nephites lived in peace with Alma as their chief judge, but eventually they grew proud. Ooh, look at me and my silk and gold and fucking Tesla Model S. Why not? You guys are being total dicks. I quit being head judge. I'm head priest now. What's the difference between the two? I'm going to yell at people for not being pre-Christian
Starting point is 00:46:15 enough now. Fun. These assholes in Zarahemla are the worst. You guys are pretty bad and you should totally repent and stuff. You aren't nearly as bad as those total tools in Zarahemla are the worst. I mean, you guys are pretty bad, and you should totally repent and stuff. You aren't nearly as bad as those total tools at Zarahemla. Gah. So with that super original sermon out of the way,
Starting point is 00:46:35 Alwin headed out to Ammoni... Babe, are you sure we don't have any crack? No, you'll fuck up the furniture again. I... I will not. Gaw, tis I, Alma. Here to tell you all what pieces of shit you are. Oh, uh...

G gah spitting on me oh alma alma oh an angel god you must now return to aminia and tell them all what pieces of shit they are. But, God, they spit on me. Yeah, man, did you not hear you? God, I'm super-duper hungry.

Yeah, well, I am totally convinced. We're shoving up. Wait, what? Wow. I sure am totally convinced by what you just said. I see through my fucking told you.
Starting point is 00:49:36 Yeah, you you sure did. Yeah. Now, one time there was this fellow named Melchizedek. Wait, wait, what? Yeah, he was king of pre-Israel. I'm sorry. How is that related at all? I just, you know, I just say stuff sometimes. Good to know. Rabba, rabba, rabba, rabba, rabba, rabba, rabba, rabba, rabba.
Starting point is 00:50:00 Kill them. Kill Amulek and Alma. Now, now, listen, everyone. I'm telling you, these guys have some good points. And if you just... Shut up or we'll kill you too. I'm going to go. You do that. We're going to light their friends on fire.
Starting point is 00:50:18 Oof, that does not look fun. You said it, Alma. Question for you. Hit me. You know how we have them, their God powers, the invulnerability and stuff? Yeah. How come then we ain't
Starting point is 00:50:31 using them? The powers? Oh. Well, you know, God needs angels and stuff. Can't go messing with God's plans, can we? I suppose not.
Starting point is 00:50:49 Also, they might burn us and ow. Well, you know, I hadn't thought of that. That's a good thought right there. Hey, what happened to that accent, that voice thing you did with the dog? Oh, it kind of fucked up the comedic timing of this bit, and I figured if we did a meta thing here at the end, people would still understand that I'm
Starting point is 00:51:06 Alma. I see. I gotcha. Man, it sure does suck down in here in prison. They always keep stripping us naked and slapping us and stuff. Yeah, we can use our powers now, I guess. And so it was that Alma and Amulek did use their powers to escape from Ammonihah,
Starting point is 00:51:26 and the city did crumble behind them as they walked away like total badasses. Music right now for us? Yeah, totally. Totally. I told them to, like, really get some rock and roll. Yeah. Awesome. You know, sometimes I wonder, though, if he minds all the jokes we make about him being short. But he's a cool dude. Yeah. Awesome. You know, sometimes I wonder though if he minds all the jokes
Starting point is 00:51:46 we make about him being short, but he's a cool dude. Yeah, no, he's cool. He's in on the joke. I bet the music is so badass right now.
Starting point is 00:51:53 So badass. They're here. They're here. Gah. Hey guys, gah. Hey, failures.
Starting point is 00:52:04 It is us, your loyal followers. So glad to see you've escaped alive. Where... Where are our wives and children? Yeah, uh-huh. About that. Hi, I'm Captain Zoram. I hear that the city of Emonia has been taken over by Lamanites.
Starting point is 00:52:24 Better go check it out and save them. Never mind, they're all dead. Wait, wait, I'm confused. Weren't we just with Alma and Amulek? Who was that guy that we just... Would it help if we checked in on the sons of Mosiah? Why would that help that? Oh my gosh, Gaw.
Starting point is 00:52:46 Ammon, son of Messiah, the guy with the pizza bagels. Funny running into you here, Gaw. Running into me where? You're in the plot, Gaw. So, what have you been up to? Oh, okay. Well,
Starting point is 00:53:02 funny, you should ask. Should ask. Should ask. Wait, so I'm the character in the story telling the story to Alma who's telling the story? Right, yes. Got it. Okay. Oh, I'm Ammon, here to proselytize to the Lamanites. I'm Lamanite, the king. You can't proselytize to the Lamanites. I'm Lamanai, the king.
Starting point is 00:53:26 You can't proselytize to us. Sorry, it's a political thing. Don't want to get into it, but you can marry my daughter. Hi, I'm a hot girl with a terrible laugh. Oh, well, that's still a really good offer, and I have to say that... You want to come hang out with my best friend who's oddly possessive of me all the time? Oh, well, that's still a really good offer. And I have to say that... You want to come hang out with my best friend who's oddly possessive of me all the time?
Starting point is 00:53:49 How about sheep herders? Do you need a sheep herder? Do you have any sheep... Oh, you're so funny. ...need herding? Guys, guys, what happened to all the sheep? Oh, the lame-inites came and they scattered all of them. Oh, Those bastards.
Starting point is 00:54:06 Well, don't worry. I know just the thing. You have magical sheep gathering powers. Yep. Sheep gathering powers. That's awfully convenient. Isn't it? Right?
Starting point is 00:54:26 Seriously, again? I just gathered these sheep. Guys, what's going on? Yeah, I'm sorry. It was the same fucking Lamanites. They always do this. Okay, well, I am going over there to have a word with them. Okay, I killed a bunch of them. I brought back a bucket of arms. Why the fuck And I brought back a bucket of arms Why the fuck would you bring back a bucket of arms?
Starting point is 00:54:49 So you'd believe me Okay, well I do believe you Good Won't have to cut off your arms What? Nothing, nothing You called, my king? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:55:07 You killed a bunch of people and cut off their arms, huh? Yeah. Something the matter? My king? King Limoni? You okay? Yeah. Yeah.

He just like super believes in Jesus. Okay, well, why does he smell like that then? Oh, because he never fucking takes a shower, Lamoni, Lamoni, air quotes.
Starting point is 00:56:13 You don't shower. Guys, keep it together. Keep it together. Ammon, Ammon, you must go to the land of Midonai, for there your brothers are imprisoned by the evil Lamanite king. I will go. I'll come too, maybe smooth things over, you know. Lamanite to Lamanite.
Starting point is 00:56:36 And on the road to Midonai, Ammon and Lamoni ran into Lamoni's father. If you're going to one of the kids in this fight, then I will kill you. Don't worry, Lamoni, I'll save you. Oh no, I Lamoni's dad am dead. Really?
Starting point is 00:56:57 Really? You sure you aren't Ammon's dad who's dead? Oh, too far! Ow! Ow! Ow! Ow too far. Ow. Ow. Ow. Ow. Ow. Ow.
Starting point is 00:57:06 Ow. Ow. And while my co-hosts sit in opposite corners of the room for their separate timeouts. He started it. We're not supposed to be talking. Heath is talking. He's talking. You're talking.
Starting point is 00:57:18 That's going to wrap it up for this week. But we'll be back in three weeks for even more Mormon Peace Theater. He's looking at me. Both of you stop or I will get Lucinda. We'll be quiet. Before we sink below the horizon tonight, I want to congratulate friend of the show
Starting point is 00:57:43 Thomas Smith of the Serious Inquiries Only and Opening Arguments podcast for his recent successful procreation. Hooray! We're happy to announce that his little girl was born with feet, so she takes after her mom, clearly. And if the fact that there's more of Thomas' genetic information in the world scares you, take comfort in the fact that this time it's diluted. Anyway, that's all the blasphemy we've got for you tonight. We'll be back in 10,022 minutes with more. it's diluted. Anyway, that's all the blasphemy we've got for you tonight.
