Thank you. All right.

Folks, welcome to another episode of Mormonism live.

I am one of the host, Bill Real.

Radio Free Mormon is not with us this Wednesday, and I don't think he'll be with us next Wednesday either.

But I'm really lucky to have John Lundwall and Rebecca Biblioteca. How are you two tonight?

Doing great. Good evening, Bill. Hi, Rebecca. Hey, John. Hey, Bill. You know, when you asked me to come on, Bill, to kind of fill the shoes of RFM, I thought, how am I going to do this? And I thought, all I really have to do is tell some jokes no one gets, use some vocabulary words that people don't understand, and then intermittently mute myself. I feel like no one will notice that he's even gone. So that's my goal for tonight. I think you're going to

have a good time doing all three of those tonight. So that'll be good. It'll be kind of cool if we do

catch you having muted yourself and then not unmuted yourself. Don't forget to quote some

Shakespeare, Rebecca. That's right. I only know

what I learned from brush up your Shakespeare's, so I'll have to try. Well, I'm glad to have both of you

on the show tonight. This is a conversation that the two of you have sort of entertained recently.

We'll sort of jump into it. But folks, this has been making the rounds in Mormon land here for about the last week.

I think it was about six days ago, seven days ago where this video somehow caught the attention of somebody.

And what it showed was that they had discovered some metal plates that had writing on them, Hebrew, to be exact.

They're bound with rings.

And so we'll show some of the pictures here and talk about sort of how this came to be.

But the first thing is where it showed up.

It showed up on Shabbat Night Live, which is sort of a play on Saturday Night Live because Shabbat is the Sabbath and the Jewish

Sabbath happens to occur on Saturday. So I thought that was kind of cool. But the Shabbat live,

and it was on a YouTube channel called A Rood Awakening with Rood spelled R-O-O-D. And folks, I know that

many of you have been following this story. I hope that we come to this story with a few new angles, things to talk about tonight.

But it is super interesting.
