Summary

In this episode, Gerrit is joined by his brother Dallin as guest host while Richard is away following the passing of his father. After announcing the NCAA bracket winner and working through the mailbag, including a listener-made ”Dendometer” chart ranking Gerrit’s biggest pet peeves, the brothers tackle a question about whether Latter-day Saints will one day gather to Missouri to build the New Jerusalem, tracing the doctrine from early revelations through Brigham Young’s teachings to the modern church’s global gathering. The episode closes with tender reflections on losing a father and the hope of the Resurrection.
