Summary

It's finally time, Theophiloi, for us to finish our exhausting journey through the extremely bizarre Book of Genesis! This week, it's the life of Joseph and his Completely Ordinary Long-Sleeved Dream Robe! The Golden Age Daniel (aka the Lord of Dreams) closes out the book with a surprisingly cohesive narrative that teaches us the solution to all of life's problems: throw it in a hole. It's the final 13 of 50 verses of people making bad moves! Join us, won't you?

Topics of discussion: Hopes for an easy and meaningful fast on Yom Kippur, an evaltuation of Scott Rogowski's shofar playing, extremely good impressions of the Prince of Stories, inflation in Bible times, Er, Onan, a bizarre sex prank, Potiphar's name bros, America's three favorite things, a brief appearance by Historical Dracula, The Bonus Goat Podcast Network, Ben Carson, a wild set of last words, and a successful arrival in Egypt where nothing bad will happen probably.

Hymnal: "Coat of Many Colors" by Dolly Parton

0:00.0	Hey, everybody. Before we get started with the show this week, we need to give you another content

0:17.9	by deception, accusation and discussion of a rape by force.
0:23.2	And so if those kind of things are going to bother you, maybe just give this week a skip,
0:28.1	and we'll eventually be reading a non-genesis text that will hopefully not need any kind
0:33.7	of warning up at the top.
0:35.1	And with that, on with the show.
0:39.2	When the chief baker saw that the interpretation was positive, he said to Joseph,
0:43.2	I also had a dream.
0:45.0	Three baskets of white bread were on my head.
0:47.3	In the top basket, all sorts of bait goods for Pharaoh, but the birds were eating them
0:51.0	out of the basket on my head.
0:52.9	This is its interpretation, Joseph replied.
0:55.5	The three baskets are three days.
0:57.1	In just three days, Pharaoh will lift up your head from off you and hang you on a tree.
1:02.0	Then birds will eat the flesh from your body.
1:04.5	The book of Genesis, chapter 40, verses 16 through 19.
1:08.5	As she sold, she told a story from the Bible she had read about a coat of many colors,
1:17.5	Joseph Warren then she said, perhaps this coat will bring you good luck and happiness,
1:25.6	and I just couldn't wait to wear it, and Mama blessed it with
