Alma 05 Part 04 Shall Very Soon Shine Forth

Joe, Smith, Molly, and Reneigh close out their four-part deep dive into Alma 5 — the hardest chapter to finish when you keep getting distracted by werewolves. Is Michael Crichton's Sphere as scripture? Have you seen the anus of Blucifer? (he doesn’t like being called that). He's the giant blue horse outside Denver Airport whose sculptor Luis Jimenez famously died during its creation.

From there they cover: Skylar Higley's podcast Help Me Be Black, a heated debate about whether Star Trek is for smart people and Star Wars is for dumb people (Smith's dad's words, not ours), Christopher Nolan's filmography including a film variously called "Interception" and "Interstellar," and David Bazan's ironclad road trip ban as enforced by Reneigh. The group proposes a General Authorities fantasy draft with David Bazan as prophet, seer, and revelator, and reads the most unhinged piece of fan mail in podcast history involving spiders, merit badges, and James A. Garfield.

The episode ends with the group accidentally summoning Blucifer himself, who reveals that Charles Barkley runs the Illuminati, falls asleep standing up, and expresses concern about Denver's cold weather and its effect on human anatomy. Molly pitches a complete werewolf-astronaut origin story following the Joseph Campbell hero's journey that honestly sounds like a better movie than most things currently in theaters.
