In this week’s episode, Heath brings not one but two demon-sperm related stories, Eli gets out of this episode with a fake doctor's note like he's skipping gym class, and Tom and Cecil will be here to see if this episode can’t earn two explicit tags.

Great diatribe. I'd like to thank cancer for causing all that medical research! Oh and get well soon Eli.

Religion *is* Politics

When Christians want to defend Bible slavery they always mention that it wasn’t half as bad as American Southern slavery. But when Douglas Wilson or anyone else wants to defend American slavery, they always say it wasn’t half as bad as in Bible times. The one thing they won’t do is hold the Bible accountable for anything. As long as we have people taking Pascal’s wager on this book, it will be an inexorable force for ignorance and bigotry.

Taru Tikkanen

I’m sure the not-my-husband-Derek that christian lady mentioned, is actually Derek from The Good Place.

Kenneth Afteryou Bauer

As much as I’d love to visit with all my atheist friends, there is zero chance I’m going to spend money or set foot in Floriduh. Fuck that state.

Peter Barnes

We have space ships... just an hour east of Orlando. You can watch us fling shit into orbit from my apartment. (Also, I moved here from Oklahoma... It's been a huge improvement for me.)

Ray Kosby

I find article VI paragraph three of the constitution to be the most convincing evidence we are not and were never intended to be a Christian nation:

Ray Kosby

The Senators and Representatives before mentioned, and the Members of the several State Legislatures, and all executive and judicial Officers, both of the United States and of the several States, shall be bound by Oath or Affirmation, to support this Constitution; but no religious Test shall ever be required as a Qualification to any Office or public Trust under the United States.

Bra Straps and Bitch Slaps

Hypothetically, what would you want in exchange for a copy of said chart? Speaking for a lazy DM named Kiah.

Kenneth Afteryou Bauer

You also have a fascist governor. I’d love to watch a launch, I watched an Apollo launch as a kid, but I’m still not going to spend so much as a fucking dime in Floriduh till it gets its shit together.

Mama Andi

As a Baker I just need to know favorite flavors I got you in March!

Cheryl

I totally understand your position, Kenneth, and if I were fortunate enough to have a similarly principled soapbox to stand upon, believe me, I definitely would! Mad respect to you for sticking to your principles! ✌🏻Integrity is a rare trait anymore. I live in TEXAS😵‍💫, otherwise known as Florida’s thicker, equally crazy, equally (if not more so) fascist, Trump-humping twin. :’( I’m leaning toward attending this convention, because it looks like an awesome event despite the locale. Plus, the weather will be nicer in Orlando that weekend than in Dallas (which could potentially be without power!), AND I’m doomed to finance fascism in one way or another whether I go to Orlando or stay in Dallas. 🤷‍♀️ (Before anyone asks —- if I could, I’d leave this fucking piece of shit state in a hot second, but that’s not possible for at least another 8-10 years ….😔 Texas is my home state, and where all my family is located, including my elderly parents and very young grandchildren. Thus, I shall suffer until I’m not as needed.)

Kenneth Afteryou Bauer

I feel your pain Cheryl. I spent 12years and three hurricanes in Texas. My house in Bastrop burnt to ashes, but that’s not at all why I left. I had some truly great times hangin with Matt Dillahunty and Aron Ra. What with Wendy Davis happening I really thought Texas was turning a corner on the past, but Ted Cruz, Louie Gomert and Ayatollah Abbot showed me just how wrong I can be.

Jess Donovan

Carl the Pugapegacorn and Pepe the frog debating cancel culture on the main stage. I would fly from Australia to the US, convincingly pretend to love Trump, become a Q Anon enthusiast, and actively lick every surface there to ensure I got all the variants simultaneously if it meant I got to watch that.

Jess Donovan

I would find Jon Benet Ramsay and hand deliver her to Eli. I would bring my Dad's ashes with me. I would impersonate a crazy billionaire. I would... Oh just PLEASE make this happen!!

Patrick Carr

If it helps, Eli, the Beatles were all around 30 years old in the documentary, not 22.

Ashley Kennett

Felt heartbroken at Eli's comment about the Beatles documentary, so just have this to say. Eli you shouldn't compare yourself to the Beatles they weren't that good, musically their lack of effort shows with their songs (musically) being rather formulaic and lacking depth and variation. They did only one thing (well mind you but only one thing), you and the other PIAT guys are more reminiscent of Queen, a group who were not only damned good but also put a mass of effort in and when you look at the breadth and depth of what they did musically the difference is telling and enormous. The reason i compare is that they like you struggled and ended up with those singular elements but the amount of rhought rhat got put in and the amount of refinement to the idea even if it was only small one it generated was incalculable. That, is Noah, Heath and you, Queen, you put in massive effort and professionalism to what you do and it shows. One day i hope you get your LiveAid where you can demonstrate fully that working and practicing your arse off for 2 weeks prepping for that 20 minutes is what puts you miles above everyone else.

Kenneth Afteryou Bauer

The Beatles weren’t all that good? Your utter lack of context is astounding. That’s like saying Galileo wasn’t all that bright because he couldn’t do calculus. Or Chuck Yeager wasn’t all that because he didn’t fly in space. The Beatles were finishing up their run just as queen was starting out. Two different eras. What the Beatles did when they did it was nothing short of amazing. Don’t get me started on what Harrison and McCartney did post Beatles.

Ashley Kennett

I will apologise for not clarifying that what i was saying was my opinion that is my bad but beyond that cool story, i find the Beatles generic and formulaic, this somewhat improved individually after they split up but still not enough that iwould say i enjoy listening to them. At best i would put them personnally on the same level as James Blunt, massively popular generally speaking but in my opinion ignorable background music.

Kenneth Afteryou Bauer

Thats a lot of word salad for “I don’t like the Beatles”. I don’t like Elvis but I acknowledge his importance.

Patrick Carr

As a general rule, I don’t argue about music, because it’s so subjective and personal. I love the Beatles and, except for a couple of songs I really don’t like the Stones. The same goes for Led Zeppelin. I find them to be pretentious and overplayed. But if someone else prefers them, go for it.

Tankard

Eli, I just want you to know that you are 100% right about how much the Beatles suck donkey ass. And all the hate you are getting for voicing that revelation are from boomers who's artistic tastes were solidified in their early tweens and are resentful towards people who are actually able to enjoy music that isn't from oversea boy bands.
