Drinking At Bible Study

Joe rambles on for way too long in between some of his favorite Tom Petty songs. Listen to a playlist curated by Joe in order to remember a great musician. Rock In Peace, Tom.

In this episode Brandi and Joe jumped on early to discuss what happened in Las Vegas and the death of Tom Petty. We may get in trouble for using Tom Petty music, but I'll deal with that if it comes up. Then the real episode starts. When the episode begins they discuss whether Joe should buy a Social D jacket, and in the fellowship they discuss how they prefer alcohol to pot, then they move into the ice breaker where they talk about how they take their coffee. Finally in the Falafeling they get into chapter 4 of Marcus Borg's book The Heart of Christianity. All this and very little else on this sad.    Las Vegas and Tom Petty Discussion 00:00 Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers - Southern Accent 14:15 Intro 15:16 Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers - Stories We Could Tell 33:24 Fellowship 34:29 Ice Breaker 52:25 Social Media 57:40 Let's Get Falafeling 58:41 Prayer Requests 1:36:20 Traveling Wilbury's - End Of The Line 1:44:21 

Brandi is in Los Angeles! So they two are able to record together outdoors. You will hear cars drive by and kids screaming in the background. Today they discuss what Brandi did in L.A., Joe talks about Skid Row and what hotel not to stay at in Downtown L.A., then Joe gives a very strange description of Darren Aronofsky's new film mother!, and then they move into the Ice Breaker where they discuss their favorite movies to watch on a rainy Sunday afternoon. Finally they get into the third chapter of Heart of Christianity by Marcus Borg where they discuss how the Bible should be interpreted. All this and very little else in this week's episode.    Intro 00:00 Fellowship 10:15 Ice Breaker 19:15 Social Media 25:39 Let's Get Felafaling 26:36 Prayer Requests 1:15:18

Joe and Brandi actually start the episode by accident this week by talk about stand up comedy. What makes a good stand up, can anyone be a stand up and how both Brandi and Joe should have been stand ups. That's just in the intro. In the Fellowship the two talk about Jim Carrey's crazy red carpet interview and talk about whether us not mattering is actually good news. Then in the Ice Breaker they discuss what qualities in a partner would be a total turn off. Finally in the Falafeling they discuss the second chapter of Marcus Borg's book The Heart of Christianity and talk about faith, how we should view the Bible, whether God actually wants our total devotion, and of course they end by discussing whether an infinate being that we can't even understand or grasp can fit into a tiny box that we totally understand. All this and very little else in this week's episode.    Intro 00:00 Fellowship 17:43 Ice Breaker 34:07 Social Media: 47:43 Let's Get Falafeling 48:52 Prayer Requests 1:34:30   Outro: The Parting Glass b

Joe and Brandi set a record for the most cuss words bleeped in a single episode! Topics discussed are can a Christian Mystic not be progressive, the president rolling back DACA (Mother F***ing, piece of s***, a**hole. F*** that a**hole piece of s***!), how Clinton's election loss was her fault and the DNC's fault and no one else's, how voting for the lesser of two evils is immoral disgusting and unChrist-like, The Nashville Statement, and Joel Olsteen. Then in the Ice Breaker they discuss what they'd like to devote more time too, and finally they get into the main discussion about chapter 1 of The Heart of Christianity by Marcus Borg where they discuss how Joe finds some progressive Christians very intolerant towards all evangelicals, what bridges the gap between Evangelical Christians and Progressive Christians, and then they get into a crazy talk about a Janga Puzzle analogy. All this and very little else in this week's episode.    Intro 00:00 Fellowship 02:02 Ice Breaker 49:00 Social Media 53:38 Let's Get

Brandi's relationship became Facebook official this week! It's not a big deal, they've been official for a while outside of Facebook, but this starts them off on a conversation about when to make relationships FB official, as well as terrible relationships Brandi has been in, and what a giant a-hole Joe used to be. Then in the Fellowship Joe talks about potato chips hang overs and Brandi talks about the new Brand New record which she loves. Then in the Ice Breaker Joe discusses what song would be his anthem while Brandi tells us how much she hates cellphones in class. And of course in the Falafeling Joe and Brandi give a short introduction to the book they will be doing for the next several weeks The Heart of Christianity by Marcus Borg. All this and very little else in this week's episode.    Intro 00:00 Fellowship 10:00 Ice Breaker 27:23 Social Media 37:29 Let's Get Falafeling 40:03 Prayer Request 1:07:58   I Was Wrong by Social Distortion   Outro Song: The Parting Glass by The Pogues

After that they get into the Ice Breaker where they discuss shopping sprees and best first date locations.

They also discuss the scariest movies they've ever seen, talking to people who know you way back when, understanding and relating to people who disagree with you and does Rob Bell ever get angry and cuss.

Back in episode 42 Joe and Brandi discuss Romans chapters 1&2 and get into a discussion about homosexuality. We thought it'd be a nice little addition to the discussion had with Brad Polley of the Inglorious Pasterds Podcast. 

Joe and Brandi start the episode by announcing what they have in store in the next couple of weeks since this is the last week of Hosea. Then in the fellowship Brandi talks about how excited she is that Summer School is coming to an end, and also how much she's enjoying Peter Rollins' book The Idolatry of God and how it reminds her of her journey and deconstruction of her faith. Then in the Ice Breaker Joe talks about the musical Hamilton and Brandi discusses another book that is very important to her. Finally they get into the last two chapters of Hosea where, for some reason, Joe decides he was going to explain to the audience the concept of Christian Anarchism. All this and very little else in this week's episode.     Intro 00:00 Fellowship 04:00 Ice Breaker 18:14 Social Media 34:16 Let's Get Falafeling 35:18 Prayer Requests 1:29:24   Outro Song: The Parting Glass by The Porgues

In this rather short episode Brandi and Joe have a rough start and a rough end. They discuss an awkward "missed connection" Brandi had at the pharmacy, Joe discusses a new podcast he's working on, then in the Ice Breaker Joe talks about when he's at his flirtiest and Brandi talks about how she can't play guitar like she used to. Finally they get into a very short discussion of Hosea chapters 11 and 12 where they essentially have no much more to say about this continued prophecy of what God is going to do to Israel. All this and very very little else, in this week's episode.    Intro 00:00 Fellowship 01:43 Social Media 17:46 Let's Get Falafeling 19:27 Prayer Requests 49:52

Joe makes a big announcement about the t-shirts which are on sale now! Go to TeeSring.com/DABSLogo and Teespring.com/DABSProverbs to get yours! No episode this week, so Joe put together a collection of clips from past episodes including interviews about podcasting, Joe screaming like a little girl, talks about The Care Bears, The Chicago Cubs, and answering some interesting philosophical questions. Also, a sermon by Joe that doesn't convince Brandi and of course Brandi trying to get Joe to think rationally to no avail. All this and very little else in this clip show.    T-shirt Sale Announcement 00:00 Our Sponsors 02:19 Introduction 03:15 Clip #1 - Q&A 04:49 Clip #2 - Is Jesus God? 15:40 Clip #3 - Interviews with Graham Elwood & Mike Schmidt 23:18 Clip #4 - Joe's Afraid Of The Dark 30:24 Clip #5 - Can Christians Vote For Trump? 34:24

Crazy episode. So t-shirts were supposed to go on sale today, but things happen and we're all going to have to wait. Joe sort of explains all that. Anywho, Brandi talks being a substitute Summer School teacher before the two kids delve into a long discussion about what a pastor's responsibility is to their flock, and in the Ice Breaker Joe talks about television and Brandi talks about bad movies to see on dates, and then of course the two get into Hosea chapters 9 and 10 where for some reason the two decide that revolution is the best option for our country now... So... Let's see how that works out for them. All this and very little else in this week's episode.    Sponsors 00:00 Special Message From Joe: 01:38 Fellowship 04:13 Ice Breaker 27:00 Social Media 43:15 Let's Get Falafeling 44:01 Prayer Requests 01:37:11 Bonus Track 01:39:51

After successfully making it through the check points to make their way to Jezebel's where Joe and Brandi talk about what they thought about the Hulu show The Handmaid's Tale. Topics discussed include what scenes and characters they liked most, what theories they have about what's going to happen next season, whether Christians are depicted unfairly on this show and others, the show's interpretation of the story of Jacob and of course, Joe get's into an ill advised rant about Anarchism and how the government is against us.
