Episode 122: D&C 25 - Section 42 Part 2 Aug 21, 2016

Show notes

In today's episode of victim-blaming, it's all your fault because you don't have enough faith. If you're in 1831 you learn about allocating space for newcomers, if you're in 2013 or later you learn that you get one free pass, then you have to stop your adulterous ways. I wish I was kidding. 13 drinks, or about 2 beers.

Episode 120: D&C 23 - Section 39-41 Aug 07, 2016

Show notes

God's strength is affirmed when he assures James Covel that moving to Ohio will be a 100% success, then Satan swoops in and tempts Covel right outta there. Joseph and Sidney get revelated into nicer houses. It's good to be in charge! 19 drinks, or about three beers.

Episode 119: D&C 22 - Section 38 Jul 31, 2016

Show notes

God commands Joseph to bring his people from Fayette, NY to Ohio, despite it being around 20F/-6C and windy outside. Marie and Bryce have an attack of empathy after Joseph's followers are commanded to leave all their worldly possessions behind so they can live as sharecroppers on a rich guys' land. God decides to withhold anything good from his followers just in case they might one day become prideful and need to be exterminated. 14 drinks, or about 2 beers, which frankly, isn't nearly enough for this sobfest.

Episode 118: D&C 36-37

Two quickie revelations ensure that a local rich dude feels extra special, and that a Bible translation is paused due to impending church migration from NY to OH. Marie and Bryce rejoice in finishing these revelations so quickly, then take a turn for the dark when Marie rants about how the primary spiritual gift for women sometimes kills them.

Four drinks, or less than one beer, but I think you should just take big swigs.

Episode 117 D&C 35 Jul 17, 2016

Show notes

Marie and Bryce learn that rampant pronoun use is incredibly confusing and eventually suss out that Sydney Rigdon will replace Oliver Cowdery as Joseph Smith's scribe, but first Marie can't resist geeking out about Lu La Roe clothing. The terrible line spacing and punctuation differences between the original and current versions of chapter/section 35 lower the readability and increase the fun! Seven drinks, or approximately one beer.

Episode 116 D&C 34 Jul 11, 2016

Show notes

BREAKING NEWS, yet another guy is sent forth into the wilderness to preach the gospel. We also have a brief discussion of blood moons and Stargate SG-1, because astronomy is cool. A measly seven drinks, or approximately one beer.

Episode 115: D&C 18, Sections 32-33 Jul 03, 2016

Show notes

This is an odd set of revelations. The first one is addressed to Parley P. Pratt and Ziba Peterson, telling them to go preach to the Natives on the border with the Lamanites in Missouri. The second one is addressed to Northrop Sweet and Ezra Thayre, telling them to go preach to the Natives on the border with the Lamanites in Missouri; but, the second one is WAAAAAY BETTER!!! The first section is 5 verses long and ends with a pathetic 1 "Drink!" while the second section talks about thrusting sickles, filling open mouths, and referencing the Book of Mormon, all while nearly murdering our livers with 20 "Drinks!" Why would these two revelations be telling different people to do the same thing, yet sound so different in doing so?

"Drink!" count – 21

Over 3 beers!

Episode 114: D&C 17 – Section 30-31 Jun 12, 2016

Show notes

To get us started, a bunch of different revelations to the Whitmer brothers are combined into one. David is told to stick around, while the others are told to go out on a mission. After that, Thomas Marsh is called to be a physician to the church, AND ONLY THE CHURCH, even if that means ignoring the wishes of his family.

"Drink!" Count –12

About 2 beers

Episode 113: Introducing Marie! Jun 07, 2016

Show notes

The show has found a new host, and I couldn't be happier! I love you already Marie, and can't wait for you and Bryce to start the next chapter of the show. As a Mymo, I love the wild and crazy journey that we've already been through and can't wait to find out what happens next. Thank you Marie and Bryce for making sure that journey didn't end. I can guarantee I'll never miss an episode. All the best.

Signed,

David Michael, Former Host of the My Book of Mormon Podcast
