Summary

 We begin this episode with (surprise) a discussion about the fear death, wondering whether it's just FOMO that would be eliminated if we were all to die at the same time. We hear from a caller seeking to reconcile the "kinder gentler" version of Catholicism he hears from us with the rigorous kind he grew up with. We revisit the proposed TikTok ban and then do another segment of "Pastor Jack's Off" with Jack Hibbs, after which we share biebers involving dictionaries and pronunciation.

what's up hey how's it going good had a pretty relaxing day yeah nice that's my day off so i

0:08.1

left my uh i mean when i walked into your house those are the first words i spoke i uh just was

0:16.9

doing working on some stuff around my house yeah all day in my bathrobe. Yeah. Sounds like your kind of day. Yeah, now I'm here. I have my house being torn apart right now. Yeah, that would be hard for me. It's getting worse every time you come over. It's like a freaking bomb went off. Yeah. But I trust it'll all be put back together nice at some point. You said months.

0:54.0

Months away. Yeah. Yeah. Well, yeah, it's probably two and a half months away. God. That's my guess. There's two weeks during that time. They can't work. They're just really slow. That'd be three months. You know? Yeah. Just do everything you do twice as fast. Yeah. it'll take half the time.

0:56.6

Yeah, I think they're going as fast as they can.

1:12.1

Dude, I was thinking about something today. I was doing this kind of, I don't know, thought experiment with myself. I was thinking about being afraid of dying. Something made me think of an asteroid hidden the earth and it's all dying.

1:13.1

I would love that.

1:15.2

Just let's, yes please.

1:17.7

Like, um, don't look up.

1:18.4

Mm-hmm. Right.

1:19.2

Like we all, if we all die at the same time, it's like none of us died.

1:23.3

Because the biggest regret about death is that other people are going to find out who wins the championship, what the next sequel to this movie is, the next series, season of this show is going to have what in it? If we all die at once, none of it matters and it's fine. Yeah. So that's where I'm getting at. Like I was thinking about this because I was thinking about like, no, if I was on a plane that was crashing, I'd probably be scared of dying.

1:46.5

Or if, you know, there was some other situation where I could possibly die and I had time to think about it, I would probably be really scared.

1:54.2

Like when I had the stroke and I was in the hospital and they're talking about giving me this medicine and they said something about there being like a one in, I don't remember what it was, one in 50 chance of having my

2:08.6

I was like pretty nervous and for a few minutes like almost panicked that I'm, this is probably

2:14.5

the closest I have come to dying that I know of for sure yeah um and I was

2:20.8

scared but uh I think if you told me if we heard right now like we got an amber alert in our phone

2:26.3

that said an asteroid is about to crash on earth it's a planet killer um we're all

2:31.5

going to be vaporized instantly or the Hawaiians who got that message about

2:35.9

an intercontinental ballistic missile is on its way to Hawaii. I think that one would have scared

2:40.5
