Hi, everybody. Welcome to the Fundamentalists podcast. My name is Elliot Morgan, and I'm here with Dr. Peter

Rollins. You know, we come up with these ideas, y'all, quite frequently. We say, what do you want to talk about?

What do you want to talk about?

And today, Pete has a doozy for us.

We're talking about the art of love, folks.

And if there's one thing I know about Pete,

it's that he not only loves people,

he also is an animal lover. He is a huge animal lover and he is a bibliophile.

And I don't just mean that he's a pervert. He is, but I also mean that he loves books.

And some of you guys might be aware that ages ago, eons, it's water under the bridge. It's really no big deal. In fact, I don't know why I'm

bringing it up right now, but like there was a rumor that my garage flooded and books that I was

entrusted with accidentally got, you know, they didn't make it onto the arc, as one might say.

They were swept into the ether, into the abyss, never to be seen again.

And so, Pete, if it's okay with you, I'm going to mention a few books that you don't own anymore.

Yes, yes, I would love to hear this.

For anybody he doesn't remember the story, yeah, I boxed up my library, and Elliot very kindly said he would look after the library

while I was away and put it in his basement and yes because of a flood a number of

those boxes were destroyed and I still to this day and it's quite cool I don't know

which books were destroyed and which books weren't. So you've told me a few in a few of the podcast episodes. So are

you going to tell me, how many are you going to give me today? I'll give you as many as you gave me

plastic bins to keep the books in, which is zero. No, okay, here we go. That was a dig about the cardboard.

It's not my, it's no one's fault that it rains, you know, torrentially in Los Angeles once every year.
