Theological Thursday! Lots of things to talk about with a few political issues seasoned in.
Thursday, October 8, 2026 · 6 min
A short, cut-short Theological Thursday. The furnace inspector was 40 minutes late and about to knock, so instead of the planned theology questions you get a voice recovering from hornet stings, a rundown of what's in both cups, and one segment on why the coverage of Trump's Iran post has the story backwards. The stream ends when the technician arrives, roughly five minutes in.
In this show
- 0:00Going live anyway, with a technician on the way
- 2:00Voice update after the hornet stings, and the cups
- 3:30What Trump actually said about Iran, LA and San Diego
- 5:00Pausing the stream
Show notes
Theological Thursday that never got to the theology. The host went live knowing the furnace technician could show up any minute, so this one runs about five minutes and ends mid-thought when the truck pulls around the corner. What's here: a voice update, the cup report, and a take on the Trump-and-Iran story the left is running with.
- Why the show almost didn't happen: 8:00 appointment, no text, no technician, and a hard out at 10:30
- Voice is back after the hornet stings that nearly took it away entirely, along with the trouble breathing
- Main cup: chai with almond joy creamer. Backup cup: peach sweet tea, described as a weird mix
- The bots were lined up with theological questions that never got asked
- Trump and Iran: what he actually said about gas prices being a small price to pay, and how the clip got reedited before it spread
- Karen Bass and the argument that LA has taken more damage from its own leadership than from any foreign threat
- The stream ends with a planned pause that becomes the end of the episode
