BOMcast!
Gonzo, Bronze, Cara, and occasional guests present a reactionary reading of the first edition of the Book of Mormon devoid of a religious context. Join us weekly as we read and react to the text of this book that has been identified as a singular work: it's the only book all educated people know about but have not read.

Episode 22 with "Reggie"
Is it finally Jacob’s turn to shine? “Reggie” (Cara’s favorite false name) joins us to kick off Jacob and while we kind of hate to admit it Jacob is his own character. But the thing is he’s not Nephi. Not the mob-boss cult leader his brother was we imagine poor Jacob turning the family profession—street preaching—into sad-sap complaining to any who will listen. Fortunately, he’s got a technological advantage; he’s writing on metal. So even if his neighbors won’t listen future generations will have to listen.
And we got exotic fibers in this one, yo. Can you guess where Lycra comes from? Wrong! I mean, I don’t know if you’re wrong but you’re not Bronze so I think we both know you’re probably wrong. And do you know where the brass plates went after everyone was finally done with them? Think God’s hindquarters but like in a sci-fi way!
