Hey Text and Rockers!

This one's all about what happens when you combine religion and politics, in the ancient world and today. Journey back to ancient Egypt with Mark and Eric once again to explore the lore of the Memphis Creation Story.

Join us to talk about

  • how the thing behind the thing in sacred texts can oftentimes be very political.
  • why there is always a danger in invoking God in politics.
  • how Shabaka started an imperial cult, and how the Bible has a gnarly parallel.
  • all about King Josiah's reform in 722 and centralizing cult for political gain.
  • Eric can't resist a Star Wars Joke.
  • Boom Shabaka-Laka-Laka. 

KK that's what we've got. We love you, TXT and RKRS!
