S9E8 (Ep 105) The Bible Iceberg: Stories They Skipped In Sunday School (opens the original)
Read excerpt
You know Jonah and the whale. You know Jericho fell. You've heard of Lot's wife. This week Christina takes an entire episode to walk through everything else. The Bible stories most people never hear, told from the top of the iceberg all the way down. She built a full Bible iceberg list, and this episode is the tour. She goes tier by tier, from the stories you kind of know but have never actually read (way weirder than you remember) all the way down to the ones your Sunday school teacher definite
S9E6 (Ep 103) How Labor Day Actually Became A Holiday / Ranking Every Labor Day Tradition (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Labor Day started as a day of protest for exhausted workers. Now it's a three-day weekend of mattress sales, beach traffic, and cookouts. This week we cover how we got from one to the other. Christina takes the science-and-history chair for the history of Labor Day itself. She walks through the labor movement that made the holiday necessary, the union parade in 1882 that became the blueprint, the strike that shocked the country and pushed Congress to make it federal in 1894, and the quiet reason
S10E5 (Ep 102) Who Was William Tyndale? The Story Behind The English Bible (opens the original)
Read excerpt
He was strangled and burned at the stake for translating the Bible into English. The King James Bible you know today? Roughly 84% of the New Testament is his exact words. And his last words were a prayer that got answered less than a year after he died. This week we take on William Tyndale. For our next joint episode, Caleb and Christina tag-team one of the most quietly consequential figures in Western history. We start with his early life: the brilliant Oxford-educated linguist, the priest who
S9E4 (Ep 101) How Humans Used To Sleep / The Best Horror Comedies Ranked (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Humans didn't always sleep 8 hours. And ranking horror comedies is somehow harder than ranking either genre on its own. This week we cover both. Christina takes the science chair for the history of sleep. She walks through how humans actually slept before electricity (spoiler: not in one long stretch), the "first sleep" and "second sleep" pattern that dominated for centuries, why the Industrial Revolution rewrote our sleep schedules almost overnight, and what the research says about whether the
S9E3 (Ep 100) Our 100th Episode: The Get-To-Know-Us Special (opens the original)
Read excerpt
100 episodes. Two hosts who somehow kept showing up. This week we're pulling back the curtain and letting you actually meet us.We wrote out 20 questions across three tiers (fun and dumb, getting-to-know-you, and genuinely reflective) and took turns pulling from the pile with zero prep and zero editing out the messy answers.Round one is the light stuff. The food we pretend to like but secretly can't stand. The useless skill we're weirdly proud of. Our go-to karaoke songs. The show we're embarrass
