Dive headfirst into a no-holds-barred Q&A session where we dissect the mind-boggling tales from Jeremiah chapters 36-40. This episode of our atheist podcast doesn't shy away from calling out the absurdities of biblical stories and the laughable lunacy surrounding modern-day eclipse predictions. Get ready for a heavy dose of skepticism and wit as we tackle the curious case of Gedaliah—the governor with the administrative chops but perhaps not the best at risk assessment. Join us as we unravel the mythos of biblical characters and take a sardonic look at how these ancient narratives still manage to influence political discourse and doomsday hype today.
In this episode, we put the prophetic claims under our critical microscope, poking fun at the idea that a perfectly predictable solar eclipse is somehow a divine signal for America to repent. We'll take a swing at the wild interpretations of political figures like Marjorie Taylor Greene, who seem to think natural phenomena are heaven-sent billboards of impending doom.
If you're looking for an episode that combines historical insight with contemporary skepticism, served with a side of snark, you've found it. Tune in to "Jeremiah Chapters 36-40 Q&A" and enjoy our unfiltered commentary on the sometimes hilarious, often concerning, and always fascinating intersection of religion, politics, and celestial events. It's educational, it's entertaining, and it's definitely not gospel.

[00:01:16] Welcome to sacrilegious discourse. I'm husband and I'm wife. Together we're reading
[00:01:20] the Bible for the very first time. We grew up without religion and wanted to know what all the
[00:01:25] fuss was about. Well, what do we learn so far? That God is a dick and apparently some people believe
[00:01:30] in talking donkeys. We're not trying to pass ourselves off as experts. Nope, we're just reading
[00:01:35] the Bible for the first time and giving our first take reaction. If you'd like to join us in this
[00:01:40] venture you might consider starting at episode one. Otherwise jump in wherever you like. All right
[00:01:45] let's go read the Bible. Yeah, let's get to it. Husband!
[00:01:51] wife! Guess what we're doing today? Well, it's it is still Saturday. It's Saturday. No, it's not.
[00:01:58] It's Sunday. It's Sunday shit. But guess what we're doing anyway. Well, we're doing what we should have
[00:02:04] done yesterday which is Q and E Saturday. That's right. And we're going to do a little bit more
[00:02:10] because it's not long what we've got. Yeah, so I'm going to actually be doing a little bit of a
[00:02:16] thing that I want to talk about that's relevant and coming up soon. Yeah, there'll be
[00:02:22] there'll be the Q and A bit and then something else. And then something else? Something else.
[00:02:26] Yeah, right. So what are we Q and A in today? I thought we'd talk a little bit about Get Allaya.
[00:02:32] Get Allaya? Yeah. Okay. All right sounds good. You ready to do this? Sure, it's fucking him. Let's do it.
[00:03:10] To catch up on the latest episodes without the ads. Hey, I'm Ryan Reynolds. Recently, I asked
[00:03:15] Mint Mobile's legal team if big wireless companies are allowed to raise prices due to inflation.
[00:03:20] They said yes and then when I asked if raising prices technically violates those

[00:04:20] what he is? Who he is? What he was doing? How about you tell me because off the top of my head
[00:04:25] I don't exactly recall. I think he's like the new leader or maybe kind of yeah. Yeah.
[00:04:32] So you remember that Babylon came in and Zedekaya was like boom, gotcha to the entire city. Yeah,
[00:04:40] except for like Zedekaya had run off and then Babylon was like yeah still gotcha. Yeah.
[00:04:50] And so then the leader of Babylon was I can't remember his name is why he's seeing Babylon.
[00:04:57] Nebuchadnezzar? Yeah, Nebuchadnezzar. That's right. Yeah. He was like so I need a leader down here
[00:05:04] with the remnant poor folk that are left behind. Sure. Yeah. And so he's looking around and he's like
[00:05:12] I see you guys who are like kind of royalty but I don't trust any of y'all fucks.
[00:05:18] Yeah, we've tried this before. It doesn't work out well.
[00:05:21] So I think I am going to use Gedalaya and appoint him as my governor of this area. Sure.
[00:05:33] He's got administrative experience, he's not of the royal line, he's gonna work with me.
[00:05:39] So I think that'll be cool. Okay. And so then Jeremiah was given the choice of you can go with
[00:05:46] the prisoners to Babylon. You was like should I stay or should I go? Should I stay or should I go now?
[00:05:53] You definitely fed me that line but if he had gone, he would have been treated really well because
[00:06:00] he would have been right under the captain of the guard which was Nebuchadnezzar or something.
[00:06:07] Or something like that. Yeah. Zedekalon. I don't know. Anyway whatever that dude's name was.
[00:06:13] He would have been treated very well or he could stay behind with the remnants and kind of try to
[00:06:20] rally them a little bit and maybe take care of them or whatever. Sure.
[00:06:24] So he chose to stay which I find very interesting and odd but okay.
[00:06:29] Right. So Gedalaya, governor of Judah, what's up? Right? Yeah. So okay. Gedalaya then was like hey
[00:06:37] you know what? Let's try to make the best of this. Okay. Let's just try to you know rebuild the land
[00:06:45] a little bit. See what we can fix here. Yeah. And the people are like yeah, you know okay, okay.
[00:06:53] But then Ishmael, the son of Nethanaya was like I should have been made the governor because I
[00:07:02] am from the royal party and I fucking hate you. Yeah. And then so somebody was like oh,
[00:07:12] I don't think you should talk like that. And Ishmael was like I'm gonna kill that bitch.
[00:07:16] Right. And then someone's always pissed off when somebody else is enjoying the show.
[00:07:20] Right? And so then somebody was like hey Gedalaya, I think this Ishmael dude might want to kill you.
[00:07:28] Right. And Gedalaya was like get the fuck out of here. Right. That would be stupid. We're happy now.
[00:07:34] We're rebuilding the land. And plus he was I think getting along with the guy that was gonna say,
[00:07:39] well they had served in the same court for the last decade or whatever.
[00:07:43] Right. So he's like no way he would never you're being stupid. This is my pal. Yeah.
[00:07:48] You know we we served together. We do good together. Yeah. You know. So he's like you're silly.
[00:07:54] So let's talk about Gedalaya. Okay. The name Gedalaya means y'all has become great.
[00:08:00] Okay. So his name is godly I guess. Sure. Okay. He was the son of he come who saved the life
[00:08:08] of the prophet Jeremiah. Okay. I don't know if you recall back when like in the earlier chapters
[00:08:16] of Jeremiah there was a guy who kind of stepped in and and like one of the governor people.
[00:08:24] Okay. One of the people with high stature kind of took his side and was like don't let's not kill
[00:08:29] this one. Yeah. Don't kill him. Yeah. So that was that was a he come who was Gedalaya's daddy.
[00:08:36] Right. Okay. And so a he come was the grandson of Shafan who's mentioned in relation to the discovery
[00:08:45] of the scroll of teaching which I mentioned this when we were reading it. Yeah.
[00:08:50] Um some scholars identify that as the core of the book of Deuteronomy. Okay. So remember when like
[00:08:56] it all went missing and then this one guy was like yeah. We found it. Yeah. Look what we found.
[00:09:02] Yeah. Yeah. And so Joseph was like that's cool. Right. They just found it like on the shelf
[00:09:07] of some library or whatever. Sure. As you do. You know. Yeah. Yeah. So anyway that's that's how
[00:09:12] this family is is related. Okay. So they're they're not of the royal line of David but they are
[00:09:20] important royal David line adjacent right. Yeah. Yeah. So Gedalaya was appointed by
[00:09:27] Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon as governor of the Yehud district. The Yehud district.
[00:09:32] Yehud. Love that name. Yeah. Which was formed after defeat of the kingdom of Judah and the destruction
[00:09:39] of Jerusalem in part of territory that previously formed the kingdom. Okay. Yeah. So he was
[00:09:46] supported by a Chaldean guard stationed at Mizpah. Okay. So you know Babylon uh Nettikadnezzar.
[00:09:55] Nettikadnezzar? That guy why can't I suddenly remember his name? I don't know. Nettikadnezzar was like
[00:10:00] okay we we won and now we're leaving and here guard guy you stay behind and I choose you
[00:10:09] um Gedalaya to wait is that his name? Gedalaya. Yeah. Gedalaya. I'm having a hard time with names
[00:10:16] he's like guard guy you're in charge Gedalaya you're the governor and now I'm out peace,
[00:10:22] dooses, bye and he went back home. Right. So they didn't really have free arraying. They were
[00:10:28] they were in charge but they were in charge as long as they did the bidding of what never
[00:10:32] ever has said to them. Yeah, but they were they were given freedom within
[00:10:38] right structure sure you know structured freedom right so I mean it was it was a gilded cage
[00:10:44] but it was a cage nonetheless yeah but you know they weren't like doing slavery work they were
[00:10:51] just you know whatever yeah anyway you see what I'm saying. Yeah, yeah so um he was supported by the
[00:10:59] Chao Ding guard stationed at Miss Pa okay and on hearing of the appointment the Jews that had taken
[00:11:04] refuge in surrounding countries they returned to Judah okay because they were like oh wait
[00:11:09] they put one of us in charge yeah things are we're still we're still here they did a Gedalaya
[00:11:15] governor right this is what unexpected right I guess it wasn't as bad as kind of bad yeah
[00:11:22] and so the new governor Gedalaya he began the task of restoring order peace and productivity in Judah
[00:11:28] okay and he saw that it would be useless for those who remained of Judah's army to attempt any sort
[00:11:34] of military action against the Babylonian occupation forces right so he was like no this is not we're
[00:11:41] not here to fight anymore they they already beat us yeah okay we're not gonna do that so he advised
[00:11:48] instead that all the people farmers and soldiers alike settle down and help make Judah's damaged
[00:11:54] farmland productive again sure which I mean work on what you can yeah yeah exactly which I mean
[00:12:00] he sounds kind of like a good guy you know I'm yeah he's making the best of it you know right
[00:12:05] and this would ensure for themselves a fairly comfortable existence under their new rulers okay
[00:12:11] and the only one really that would be put out would be the soldiers you know right they're like no
[00:12:17] this bullshit the farmers whatever we farm who cares who's in charge yeah we're gonna be farming
[00:12:21] regardless right like I don't really care who boss man's name is yeah either way I'm farming the land
[00:12:27] and I don't probably get to see a lot of the benefits of it sure so this Gedalaya guy he zealously
[00:12:36] like super excited to get things going he zealously began to encourage the people to cultivate the
[00:12:42] fields and vineyards okay and thus lay the foundation of security okay and the more that he was
[00:12:48] like saying let's do good stuff the more that people were like okay and the more that good stuff
[00:12:54] started to happen the more who that the people who had fled to neighboring lands during the war
[00:13:00] of destruction yeah they were attracted by news of the revival of the community so they started coming
[00:13:05] back to Gedalaya in Miss Pa and they were warmly welcomed by him so all of the people who had fled
[00:13:12] and were refugees and nearby towns so he was being a good ruler yeah right they were all coming home
[00:13:17] they were like this cool this cool right okay at least to some people anyway right right
[00:13:23] Gedalaya also welcomed home those Judeans who fled to neighboring countries to escape the Babylonian
[00:13:29] army and under Gedalaya's leadership the Judeans soon saw their country be kind productive again
[00:13:37] so I mean there was a time period when they were actually rebuilding right this wasn't just like two
[00:13:42] days and then yeah you know this was like a good strong period of time right when they were actually
[00:13:50] rebuilding yeah but the Ishmael guy yeah he was having none of it okay so where we left off in our
[00:14:00] last chapter chapter 40 mm-hmm was he didn't like it so I'm about to give you a spoiler okay okay
[00:14:08] because when we read on Monday in chapter 41 Ishmael is actually going to kill Gedalaya
[00:14:17] which we guessed at we did guess I mean it wasn't like a real big foreshadowing is not like a super
[00:14:22] spoiler right the reason that I'm giving that away in this little Q&A section uh-huh because
[00:14:30] that assassination has repercussions to this day oh yeah the assassination of Gedalaya left Judah
[00:14:39] devoid of any Jews or Jewish rule and completed the destruction of the first temple oh wow yeah like
[00:14:46] that was it it was done at that so they destroyed themselves essentially yes Jewish sages
[00:14:53] established the fast of Gedalaya so this is a day of memorial still today wow yeah it's observed
[00:15:00] on the third day of Tishri so as not to coincide with Rush Hoshana which is the Jewish New Year
[00:15:07] that occurs in the late summer slash early autumn okay yeah um it's suspected that his
[00:15:15] assassination occurred on the first day of of that time period okay but they don't want it to
[00:15:22] coincide with that so that's why they celebrated on the third day and stage sure but yeah that is
[00:15:27] still actually a one of the I think for uh feast days interesting yeah so I didn't want to talk
[00:15:35] about Gedalaya without mentioning that he is actually significant still significant day yeah so
[00:15:44] that is my little tidbit on Gedalaya we will still read a little bit about him on Monday when
[00:15:49] he's not dead yet sure yeah but gets dead real fast right right okay yeah so that rings us to uh
[00:15:56] what I wanted to talk about oh yeah yeah and uh so I some of you may have heard that tomorrow
[00:16:03] being uh Monday the uh April the 8th um-hmm 2024 there's gonna be a total solar eclipse
[00:16:12] a totally eclipse of the heart you know no no it's the sun yeah totally eclipse of the heart
[00:16:19] so it struck me out of left field kind of and I should know because this happens every time
[00:16:24] there's something weird happening different happening whatever it happens pretty much daily actually
[00:16:30] I would say somebody's got some sort of a prophecy some sort of uh an idea that the apocalypse is
[00:16:37] gonna happen that the end of times is on its way right it is on its way every day always yeah for
[00:16:43] several thousand years now yeah they're kind of late but I mean you know whatever whatever so they
[00:16:49] keep we keep always having these new things where they're like the end of the world is coming on
[00:16:54] this date remember remember why 2k yes I don't know that that was real biblical though that was more like
[00:17:01] the society is gonna ruin it yeah right yeah so I'm sure there were some biblical stuff going on
[00:17:07] then but you know it didn't feel biblical to me I was in Florida at the time and a lot of the people
[00:17:14] that I talked to they were actually stockpiling um water and weapons and canned goods wow yeah
[00:17:22] because they were like society is gonna fall I mean to be fair my mom bought some bottle
[00:17:26] of canned goods and some water and I think some duct tape or something I don't know right we had
[00:17:31] we had a stockpile I remember yeah so yeah that happened during why 2k kids ask your parents what
[00:17:37] why 2k was about anyway so tomorrow the well actually as you don't have much time probably if
[00:17:48] you're listening to this today which we're gonna release as soon as we're done you've got
[00:17:52] till tomorrow and then tomorrow if you're listening to this if you don't listen to it before like
[00:17:57] I don't know 1 or 2 o'clock in the afternoon Eastern time it's probably already happening man yeah
[00:18:02] I mean if the world ends we won't get a lot of listens on this one so you know I guess if the world
[00:18:08] ends the number of listens we did or didn't get is gonna be no last time are concerns exactly that
[00:18:16] being said in the interest of kind of giving the other side and the the information that I have
[00:18:22] heard from them oh my um I am going to play a couple of clips here so okay I'd like you guys to
[00:18:28] just listen and then we'll come back and we'll talk a little bit more about this okay that sounds
[00:18:33] fun all right let's do this okie dokie and this is what you don't know about three days of darkness
[00:18:38] the solar eclipse on April 8th has stirred interest and concern related to biblical prophecy it will
[00:18:43] be a total eclipse visible across the US which won't happen again for 20 years and it is not just any
[00:18:49] eclipse like the ones we have seen before as it will be on the same day as the three days of darkness
[00:18:54] in Egypt during an eclipse the moon blocks the sun temporarily but beyond its visual spectacle
[00:19:00] people see connections to warnings and scripture about signs from God in the biblical scriptures
[00:19:05] astronomical phenomena are alluded to as warning signs as the Bible tells us in Joel 2 verse 31
[00:19:11] the sun shall be turned into darkness and the moon into blood before the great and dreadful day of
[00:19:16] the Lord comes a past eclipse on August 24th 2017 went through seven cities named Salam
[00:19:23] another eclipse will cross America with a similar pattern over seven cities called Nineveh
[00:19:28] as in the book of Jonah the word Salam according to the Bible is peace so God is said to have offered
[00:19:34] peace seven times through these signs this next eclipse crosses Nineveh cities and makes a perfect
[00:19:38] cross on the center of the nation right in the center of the cross is a city called rapture what
[00:19:44] is God's message he's coming very very soon and then there's this one the solar eclipse is coming
[00:19:52] next month and will cross over many cities named Nineveh now what is the significance of this
[00:19:57] and what is God saying there was a biblical scholar named Donald Wiseman and he speculated that
[00:20:03] the eclipse took place around the time that Jonah arrived in Nineveh and urged the people to repent
[00:20:08] otherwise the city would have been destroyed now the path on April 8th for the us eclipse passes
[00:20:14] directly over or nearby these towns look at this Nineveh Texas Nineveh Missouri Nineveh Indiana
[00:20:21] Nineveh Ohio Nineveh Pennsylvania Nineveh Virginia Nineveh New York Nineveh Nova Scotia
[00:20:29] Now Nineveh is mentioned in the Bible most notably in the book of Jonah where it was associated with
[00:20:36] the city full of sin and vice now prior to its fall however Nineveh was the largest urban center in
[00:20:42] the world now as the story is related in book Jonah the prophet Jonah was called by God to go to
[00:20:49] Nineveh and to prophesy disaster if they did not repent because of their excessive wickedness now
[00:20:56] Jonah wanted nothing to do with Nineveh he did not listen to God and we all know the story of
[00:21:01] Jonah but thank God the second time he listened and he went to Nineveh and preached to them and they
[00:21:08] listened and they repented so is this eclipse coming a sign from God because of the significance of
[00:21:14] all the cities named Nineveh what do you think comment below but nonetheless we have to get ready
[00:21:19] because God is coming soon comment below what you think about this issue okay so that was uh
[00:21:26] that was that that was the uh I mean there's there's a million other of these um
[00:21:32] clips out there about Nineveh yeah about Nineveh and like it even gets weirder than that they start
[00:21:38] talking about numerology and um just all kinds of weird shit that's kabbala stuff right right yeah
[00:21:46] and it's i just the amount of times I can I hear about in timed prophecies because of this event or
[00:21:54] that event all the time but the one that really made this one stand out to me is that in I think it
[00:22:02] was to maybe it was yesterday um but Marjorie Taylor Greene decided that she was going to um
[00:22:11] chime in on this little conspiracy theory here okay so on let me let me find the date here exactly
[00:22:18] I've got to pull it up here so it could be just one moment but it happened very recently
[00:22:24] and I am still looking here but it happened on April 5th so two days ago Marjorie Taylor Greene says
[00:22:34] God is sending America strong science to tell us to repent earthquakes and eclipses and many more
[00:22:39] things to come I pray that our country listens oh my goodness yeah yeah and then not only she didn't
[00:22:46] take that down she followed up with it and retweeted it with her own another comment that says that
[00:22:55] many have mocked and scoffed at this post and even put community notes Jesus talked about that in
[00:22:59] Luke 1254 that through 56 yes eclipses are predictable and earthquakes happen and we know when
[00:23:07] comments are passing by however God created all those things all these things and you and uses them to
[00:23:13] be signs for those who us who believe but how do you how I just I can't you can't even
[00:23:24] formulate words no it's so it anger me like it's so asinine how are natural events signs I've
[00:23:31] never understood this how are natural events that can be calculated yeah signs we've known about
[00:23:37] this eclipse way longer than you've been alive Marjorie Taylor Greene right so like it it has no
[00:23:44] significance it is just something that it was and isn't will always happen well what I find interesting
[00:23:51] is nil de gras Tyson took a lot of shit because he was always with the last big gigantic exciting
[00:24:00] eclips he was so dismissive he's like my guys there's a fucking eclips of something somewhere
[00:24:07] you know all the time right like every moment there's some kind of fantastical um astronomical
[00:24:16] event that can be celebrated because we're god damn tiny rocks circling the giant sun in
[00:24:21] in in a I mean ultimately we're a tiny solar system and a giant universe you know like
[00:24:27] we're so insignificant and things are just happening you know like that's just what happens yeah
[00:24:32] and the cool thing to me has always been science right like this shit is is predictable this shit is
[00:24:39] you can explain it there's a reason for it and we can know those things which is really fucking cool
[00:24:46] yeah but then these religious nuts have to turn them into a god damn prophecy in a circus yeah
[00:24:51] and make shit up because wasn't like they were talking about the towns of Nineveh that is
[00:24:56] supposed to go through and that's not exactly correct I don't think well no there's only like three
[00:25:02] towns of Nineveh not like eight right some shit like that yeah and it's not a god damn X or whatever
[00:25:09] the fuck they're trying to say it is right well there's multiple symbols that they're attaching to
[00:25:13] it there's like an a and across and uh you know whatever like they're attaching all kinds of
[00:25:18] sign of symbolism to these things so right and they're just throwing some getting at the wall
[00:25:23] hoping something sticks honestly it's clickbait mm-hmm but you know the the truth is that we have a
[00:25:30] congresswoman in our national political realm who is spreading these fucking conspiracy theories
[00:25:40] right like she is literally she believes that this is a sign from God that it might be the beginning
[00:25:47] of the rapture and times or some shit like that she believes this shit and she's not alone there are
[00:25:53] many people who think this is a sign which is silly and in of itself but for somebody of that
[00:25:59] caliber of that stature yes that that to be to be in our hallowed halls of it's a fucking embarrassment
[00:26:09] it is very embarrassing yeah like this is this is embarrassing for the United States
[00:26:14] to have somebody up there saying conspiracy theory bullshit based on biblical fucking prophecies right
[00:26:21] you've got to be had that's so fucking 1600s right I mean what the fuck well in the the whole
[00:26:28] three days of darkness yeah like hi I literally was looking that up because I was like what's
[00:26:33] a three days of darkness yeah it falls on a Thursday Friday Saturday so we're good y'all
[00:26:40] right there you go yeah past and we're all here that's not it this isn't the one this is no one
[00:26:46] nope I didn't say I didn't see one day of darkness much less three of them and tomorrow it's
[00:26:52] only supposed to be like seven minutes of darkness or some shit like that right right get the fuck out
[00:26:57] of here with that but I did make some I did make some merch out of this I made some I wasn't raptured
[00:27:05] t-shirts and hoodies and mugs and stuff so it's got the date on it it's got the date on it so if
[00:27:09] you guys want to get your merch for the the solar eclipse and and show everybody how you weren't
[00:27:14] raptured head over to our website you know and I should get the merch shop I should get some for
[00:27:19] my parents because they won't have been raptured either right right they'll find that very disappointing
[00:27:23] I mean probably yeah yeah anyway I didn't really have anything specific to come like there is no
[00:27:31] facts to discuss here right this is just all a bunch of idiots on fucking online making shit up to
[00:27:37] fit their narrative that they want the world in so that's all that's all I had I just had to share it
[00:27:43] with you and I had to tell you how mad that Marjorie Taylor Greene shared this bullshit on her
[00:27:49] fucking Twitter feed and she's an idiot and you're mad I am I'm mad because you know what okay
[00:27:55] because people always always ask why do we why do we get angry why do why do we care so much about
[00:28:03] the bible and Christianity and why do we get upset about it I get upset about it because of this
[00:28:10] kind of bullshit we have a political figurehead in our government who believes that the world is
[00:28:18] going to end tomorrow right because of a sign from fucking God I don't want someone like that making
[00:28:27] decisions for me in our government right I don't want someone like that thinking that they have
[00:28:35] any right to influence my life at all right because they're dumb they're just fucking dumb and here's
[00:28:44] the thing like I can hear the argument being like but they have faith and just let people have their
[00:28:50] own different faith no this is not a difference of opinion y'all she's saying that this is a
[00:28:56] sign from God it is not I'm not saying that your God doesn't exist in this sentence okay right
[00:29:02] I'm not talking about your faith or your belief what I am saying in this very moment is that no
[00:29:09] any clips which has been calculated to the minute right is not a sign from God it happens regularly
[00:29:19] yes this is this is what I am telling you right like I'm not even talking about opinions I'm not
[00:29:26] talking about can't we all just get along and you know you guys you kids just hug each other and
[00:29:33] make up no no I'm not going to right no she's she's an idiot at best and a idiotic liar at worst
[00:29:46] right you know yeah which one is your pig yeah I'm going with idiotic liar because she has been
[00:29:51] known to lie and she's an idiot right I mean she did believe in like Jewish space lasers or
[00:29:56] something starting forest fires so I don't know whatever she's an idiot has no business in politics
[00:30:02] yeah yeah no I that that that much she's proven so I didn't really have anything else to share
[00:30:08] about it I just want to discuss that and talk about it for a minute because obviously this solar
[00:30:13] eclipse is happening on Monday possibly today when you're listening to this at the very least
[00:30:18] tomorrow if you're listening to this as soon as it comes out so I want everyone oh something
[00:30:23] else to say I have heard from reliable sources that accents on the road do go up during the solar
[00:30:31] eclipse so everybody be safe out there because people stop to you know it's dumb also this is dumb
[00:30:37] also right but people stop in the middle of the fucking road to watch the guy's name clips that and
[00:30:42] if they didn't realize it was happening and the sky is suddenly dark for a minute yeah that
[00:30:47] that could be spooky that's disconcerting yeah not everybody is you know dialed in and aware
[00:30:54] moreover yes do be careful but moreover I've also heard that you really should
[00:31:04] also don't look at the sun don't directly at the sun except for apparently and look this up
[00:31:08] for yourself because I don't want to be the authority on this 100 but apparently there are two
[00:31:13] minutes in which you are allowed to look at the sun maybe because not because the sun's not there
[00:31:19] the sun is not there so you're not looking at the sun you're looking at the lack of sun right
[00:31:22] right right but I'm just you know and toward that end the corona that surrounds where the sun is
[00:31:29] supposed to be but isn't it's supposed to be very gorgeous yeah but moreover what I was going to say
[00:31:34] is that if you are out there enjoying the eclipse and you know partaking of the excitement
[00:31:44] of this natural phenomenon I have heard that you're supposed to not just look up but also look around
[00:31:50] yeah and feel the air change in temperature mildly and enjoy the sound of nature changing
[00:32:00] for a moment yeah like the wind or the it's an experience yeah like you might hear
[00:32:09] the birds stop or start you might hear locusts or whatever you whatever yeah things will happen
[00:32:16] things will happen also I have heard that during a full solar eclipse like this
[00:32:23] that the air might even get a little shimmery in some places yeah like so look around tell me what
[00:32:30] you see yeah and we are right we are literally right in the path of this thing so date no hi oh
[00:32:35] date no hi oh yeah but it's supposed to be cloudy overhead tomorrow so we might not it'll still get
[00:32:40] dark we're still going to be outside yeah but you know hopefully we'll be clear hopefully we'll be
[00:32:45] clear right for the you know at least the two I want to see the two minutes you know the corona the
[00:32:50] the whole bit there so be safe be careful on the roads if you're driving do enjoy it don't stare at
[00:32:58] the sun do look around and let us know what experiences you have or if you think the whole thing is
[00:33:05] stupid and overblown and not worth it sure yeah um on that note I think we are not doing a book club
[00:33:12] this week because time just got away from us and something got to go and the weekend ones are usually
[00:33:19] the ones we got to skip when we fall behind right so that being said I will get the weekly wrap up
