| 0:00.0 | Warning, I sound like this. I don't want to sound like this. I tried not to sound like this, but I do. |
| 0:05.8 | So we're gonna get the dry and dry. I'm short this week and I'm gonna let Eli and he two most of the talking otherwise. |
| 0:09.9 | Oh, also warning we say naughty words to this week's episode of the scathing atheist is brought to you by honey stamps.com |
| 0:18.6 | hymns and by the Pontius pilot cure for coronavirus the Pontius pilot cure the only one that works and |
| 0:27.6 | now the scathing atheist. Hi, I'm Kaylee and I'm Jackson and even though our mom says we're too young to listen to the show |
| 0:36.4 | We are old enough to know that we did in fact evolve from filthy monkey men |
| 0:57.0 | It's Thursday. It's March 5th and it's National absent day. So go hop on a cloud and talk to the cartoon fear that is your grandfather's old portrait. I guess I am no illusions. |
| 1:16.9 | I'm Eli Bosnick. I'm Heathen right and from James Comey's New Jersey. How since the Nanny Swings State and good husband Georgia, this is the scathing atheist. |
