Just a reminder for you, we're not trying to give you another entertainment option here.

Hopefully it's at least borderline entertaining.

But that's not actually what motivates us.

It's encouraging you spiritually.

That's it.

All the music, everything we're doing. When we talk about Jesus, we do it imperfectly, of course. But this is not just a normal radio thing that's happening. That's what makes us get up and go to work. So thank you for listening. And I just want you to know that's why we're here.

Get ready to be shocked. I'm a shock, chalk, I'm rated G. Yes. But I do shock people with just interesting stuff. And this is actually touching. Okay. It has to do with Army ants. You know Army ants? I'm vaguely familiar. You know, like, when it's flooding, they'll make big ball. they'll like group themselves into a big ball. I did not know that.

Yeah, that's why you don't want to mess around, like flood waters in certain areas.

Because they're in a big ball.

They're in a big ball floating in there.

Okay.

But anyhow, this is where it's, it gets where it gets really touching.

Okay, got it.

They do that because, and I already knew that.

Uh-huh. They did that. Right. Like, don't get that. But the motivation.

A big ball of ants. Yeah. Yeah. They do it because they're always rotating that ball. Uh-huh. So that each ant gets to breathe. Oh. They're looking out for each other. It's like I get a turn to breathe and then I go under and then you come up. Uh-huh. And then you go wonder and then that aunt comes up and he's fine.

And that's, yeah, okay.

Like they're doing. I get a turn to breathe and then I go under and then you come up. Uh-huh. And then you go under and then that aunt comes up and he's fine.

And that's, yeah, okay.

Like they're doing it for each other. They band together. Yes. To survive. Community. Yeah. It's community. Okay. It really is a community. It's good lesson for us. Here's something our culture has it exactly wrong about, and that is that evil people are more interesting than non-evil people.
