Podcast #71: Virtual Friends, Counsellors, and Confessors

This episode of Drunk Ex-Pastors opens with a brief discussion of whether Time magazine's fourth most-powerful person in the world deserves the label, after which we take a call from (and are shocked at the libido of) the world's most brilliant theoretical physicist. We turn our attention to the irony that is Seattle's Amazon Books superstore, which is intertwined with the topic of technology, leading us to the not-so-futuristic issue of self-driving cars and whether they'll be as "safe" as the ones that human idiots drive. We then touch upon Bernie Sanders's views of marijuana and the gays' plan to make the human race extinct. After our break we discuss Australian (ex)model Essena O'Neill and her renunciation of social media, on social media, which brings up the broader topic of just how healthy it is that online forums have replaced real flesh-and-blood counselors for so many young people in our culture. In our "Dick Move, God" segment we learn how to get out of paying your debts with the help of the Spirit. Jason is biebered by the effects of changing your email address, while Christian's bieber involves unnecessary wastes of his time. Also, Lesbian Island? Yes please.
