281. Texas Mandates Bible Reading & Cursing In Jesus Name

In this episode of We Should Know Better, the guys dive headfirst into a hilariously chaotic mix of viral street culture, heavy theological head-scratchers, and unsolicited physical observations.  Zack and Andy break down a bizarre viral video of a street preacher casting quite the extreme "biblical" curse on a dancing Jesus impersonator. They then pivot into a raw, honest conversation about their own insecurities—from Zack’s legendary "missing link" brow ridge to Andy’s sudden realization that his bladder is working overtime.  Later, they tackle the mental shift of unexpected inheritance money, debate the controversial new Texas law mandating Bible reading in public schools, and pull up the receipts on Genesis 9 to figure out exactly what happened when Noah got a little too drunk in his tent.  Finally, they question whether a lack of modern creativity means the global simulation is simply running out of memory. Pull up a chair, crack a cold IPA, and remember: we should probably know better. 00:00 – Warm Beers & Setting the Curls Free 02:30 – Zack’s "Missing Link" Sun Visor Ridge 05:00 – Testing the South Pacific IPA 08:45 – Reacting to the Street Preacher vs. Dancing Jesus Video 11:45 – Cursing People with Cancer in Jesus’ Name? 13:15 – Our General Disposition on Street Preachers 19:30 – Pouring One Out for LeBron’s Lakers Era (and Melting Hair) 23:00 – Jordan Peterson as Kermit and Miss Piggy 25:40 – The Smell of Sound Dampening Material 27:00 – What Would You Do With a Surprise $50,000? 34:30 – Non-Profits, Free Trips to Hawaii, and Financial Awkwardness 46:30 – Texas Mandates Bible Reading in Public Schools 53:00 – Balancing Faith Integration vs. State Coercion 59:00 – Fact-Checking Genesis: When Noah Got Drunk & Naked 01:05:00 – Did the Flood Actually Fail to Stop Violence? 01:21:00 – Knowing the Heart of God Through Jesus 01:24:00 – Simulation Theory: Did the World Run Out of Memory in the 90s? 01:27:00 – Giving Power to the State Always Bites Back SUBSCRIBE & SHARE us this week!Contact Us:  [email protected]⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Leave Us A VoicemailYouTubeSimpleCastSpotifyApple PodcastsXInstaWe Should Know Better is: Zack Krater & Andy McCraw Find us wherever fine podcasts are distributed.
