Scathing Atheist 399: Lord of the Flies Edition
Added 2020-10-08 04:38:20 +0000 UTCSorry we're getting this one out so late. Noah wanted to wait until after the debate to write his diatribe, just in case Mike Pence did something unusually Jesusy. Or had a fly walk around on his head for an absurdly long time.
In this week’s episode, Tom and Cecil join us for some finely aged roasts, Donald Trump gets infected by a hoax, and we learn we can inflict COVID with our wishes.

Hi Rhonda. We are so very sorry for your loss. 💔. I’ll make sure the roast is taken out of the queue. 😪

2020-10-09 20:20:08 +0000 UTCLast year we donated with a request to praise our little dog Max that sort of devolved into a request to roast everyone who dosn't have a Max. Unfortuantly he died suddenly of liver failure, so would you please leave out the roast part? Don't worry about this if that already happened on Tom and Cecil's show, because neither of us listen to that.

2020-10-09 14:53:03 +0000 UTCI know that medic surely had practised on cadavers before, but the inclusion of 'live' still makes it ominous.

2020-10-09 12:11:32 +0000 UTCWhen you join the Royal Australian Navy you get immunized for EVERYTHING. When we all marched to the medical center, all the trainee medics were practicing on oranges. Not a great start. Also, I was one of the first half dozen or so called up (check out my last name) and the baby medic said 'Oh, you're my first live human!'. Fun times...
