May 13, 2015 Ep 178 – Investigative Reporting 101: I Believe
Glenn Ostlund's Psychology Today Profile

Do Mormons really believe that the Lord God created the universe? Or that God lives on a planet called Kolob? Or that in 1978 God changed his mind about black people?
Get ready for the most hard-hitting, deep-penetrating, truth-cutting-to-the-chase-of Investigative Reporting you have ever ever ever heard! Cuz the Infants are going to satirically take you through the many erroneous Truth Claims of The Book of Mormon Musical’s “I Believe.”
It’s not exactly Casey Kasem calling a Monster Truck rally. But it is almost just that cool.
