Holy Fools Podcast

These guys are a joke. They’re just dilettantes, or perhaps multidimensional idiot savants (hold the savant part), opining on subjects beyond their ken: literature; theology; philosophy; politics; the arts. You get the picture; they just read too much. Get a life. There is a whole world out there with real living people in it just waiting for you guys. They also seem to be really concerned about something called ”nihilism,” although they can’t even define what ”nihilism” is. And they seem to think they’ve gone ”over the line” . . . whatever that means. Also, who is Ernst Junger? Why do they keep mentioning him? It’s ridiculous. Oh, and the kicker: I think they’re like bible-thumpers or something. Podcasts have really jumped the shark.

    Betrayal Season 5

    Saskia Inwood woke up one morning, knowing her life would never be the same. The night before, she learned the unimaginable – that the husband she knew in the light of day was a different person after dark. This season unpacks Saskia’s discovery of her husband’s secret life and her fight to bring him to justice. Along the way, we expose a crime that is just coming to light. This is also a story about the myth of the “perfect victim:” who gets believed, who gets doubted, and why. We follow Saskia as she works to reclaim her body, her voice, and her life.
