Hello and welcome to Favorite of Forsaken. I'm your host and Babel Scholar and Moon.

Because the Babel Ninja episodes are mostly looking backwards, Favorite of Forsaken is an

episode devoted to looking to the present and future as we consider current events that

the religious lens decide if they are favorite or forsaken. Joining me on this faith-based

journey, Jamie Golden, Max McCoy. Guys, how are you feeling today? Are you personally

favorite or forsaken? Listen, I'm going first. I am favorite because you introduced

me to Pumpkin Joe Joes from Trader Joe's. Yeah, and it is all I think about. And I thought

they were going to be awful. That's right, you did. I did. I even said, because you know,

Aaron's pretty, pretty fall basic. And so it makes sense to eat all things pumpkin.

But, man, those are so good. And like, I literally got mad at you when you ate them all.

I know. And I brought you some chocolate ones.

Oh, no. Oh, that's nice. So I am favorite. I'm favorite. Not so bad you. Same different

reasons. I'm just like a proliferation of all the Reese candies now. And I feel like

we officially have permission to eat them as much as we want. So I feel good about that.

Yeah. And they'll see in them. You're right. It is the best season because we'll go straight

from pumpkins to trees. Yeah. That's right. What a gift. Really sweet spot of Reese's

candy. It is. No, for sure. Truly. Aaron, what about you? Are you, we never like follow

up and be like, are you favorite? I always ask you and you never ask. That's right.

And it's taken a year. But now I've done it. Let's keep the street alive. And I

really doesn't matter at this point. I'm great. Is that what we wanted to know?

Well, if it's true. Yes. What we want to know. It is. Okay. I am great. I feel great.

Everything is good. Okay. Okay. That was very convincing. Thank you. That's that theater
