I so want for the rapists to be judged according to the bible, but not for the rape though because that's hardly a crime in the bible. It'd be fun if they had their shellfish-eating and sunday-stick-collecting and mixed-fabric-wearing history investigated and they were sentenced to several hundred deaths by stoning.

I didn't mean it to be critical of the show so much as critical of the fact that it's been less than two weeks and it's impossible to keep up with everything this monster is shitting all over our country. There is too much to cover that even a mere few days feels like ancient and irrelevant news at this point.

Well they probably get Monday Tuesday Wednesday and that there stories they cover unless they do a longer show there's only so much they can cover. They have to write what we're going to say some jokes ahead of time. Come on

This episode seems like it's so out of date in this current hellscape we live in. I'm like "they recorded this 5 days in and are still on the Nazi punching thing? Oh those sweet summer children have no idea what's in store for them in a few days..."

Well you have to give it to Rick Joyner, he knows fractions. ~300mio people in the US, ~3mio people demonstrating. Thats 1%, so I guess we can establish that Rick knows at least the fraction "a whole" or 1/1.

I can tell you recorded this episode before everything that went down from the International Holocaust Memorial Day onwards
