Roasting Saints 27

from Book of Boredom Hosted by Book of Boredom

** #129 Roasting Saints 27 ** :: People Ruin Everything :: Jones and Patience rip apart some "faith affirming stories" from episode 27 of the Saints podcast. :: Highlights: :: Orson Hyde pretends to be a Jewish patriarch and piles up some rocks in the Holy Land. Ben Godfrey gets over excited about the "amazing work" of Leslie Sherman and her team, as they sift through "hundreds" of sources. He asks Leslie what that process looked like using the story of Mary and John Davis as an example, and is informed there was only one source. Leslie corrects Ben Godfrey when he says John C. Bennet was elected to the county court, because he was appointed. Thomas Sharp calls Smitty out from his newspaper, and Joseph cancels his subscription to it... and tries to have the last word by attaching the most unintentionally hilarious silly prose. Including phrases such as: "the filthy sheet", "that tissue of lies" and "sink of iniquity". Leslie explains how they chose which of Joseph's plural wives to write about in Saints. The upshot is, there were so many, that you could categorise them. Then they picked the story with the best sources for each category of wife. :: Also discussed: :: Some True Believing Mormon women are having a difficult time shifting gears to the new clothing rules which finally allow them to show their shoulders. Politics J Wellington Wimpy from the Popeye comics. Creepy dolls. #Reasons to stay home this Sunday# - https://bookofboredom.com/reasons/ #Join the Blasphemy# - https://facebook.com/groups/BookOfBoredom #Patreon (Bonus Episodes)# - https://patreon.com/BookOfBoredom #Twitter# - https://twitter.com/BookOfBoredom #TikTok# - https://tiktok.com/@BookOfBoredomPodcast #Instagram# - https://instagram.com/BookOfBoredomPodcast #YouTube# - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCMjDavWoT73Cev3IAie_XBA #Website# - https://bookofboredom.com/ A nice review on any podcast platform will help frustrate the Heavenly Father's boring plans for your future.
