This is the Babylon Bee Weekly News Podcast for the week of 9/18/2020.
In this episode of The Babylon Bee Podcast, Kyle and Ethan talk about the week’s biggest stories like how Netflix is putting out films to show how bad something is by having actors do that thing, Democrats are threatening chaos and death if they don’t get their way in November, and a woman is marrying a tree. Kyle and Ethan do a rundown of the most weird stories of the Bible and come up with great band names like Stabbing Eglon.
Introduction
Welcome to The Babylon Bee, the only podcast on the internet where two pasty white guys tell you what they think about politics.
Kyle has a church visit horror story.
Stuff That’s Good
Kyle LOVES They Shall Not Grow Old - 2018 documentary by Peter Jackson featuring restored and colorized footage of World War I. No narrator, no framing, no commentary, just audio of actual World War I vets over the footage. Very few historical details, just the soldiers’ experiences. An incredibly moving film.
Ethan likes Norm MacDonald’s Based On a True Story Audiobook.
