Welcome, Neighbor! We're continuing our rebroadcast of John's first podcast episodes, ever.  This is the Comedy Sojourn Episode #2, originally published in September 2016.  Please forgive the audio issues. We were rubes back then... (Not like now--because these days we always get our audio equipment to work perfectly.)

Andrew and Tabby are John's two youngest children, and they have a lot to say about a spider they caught.  Should they kill it or catch-and-release?  

In this episode:

"You could get eight really good drumsticks from that spider." --John Branyan

"We have butts, and we can't spin webs...cigarettes have butts, and they can't spin webs."

Tabby is getting married later this week, but she won't come back to visit if Dad and Andrew let the spider go in the house. 

"...Did you know, Dad, that some turtles breathe out of their butts?" --Tabby (Branyan) Farkas

Later:  John and the Peaches talk about the Atheist Hospice Care Worker.  (With just a few interruptions from young girls with noisy toys.)  How can an Atheist assign value to end-of-life care?

Quote from The Way of the Heathen: "We matter because we matter to each other in our own short time on our own short scale...we make each other important."
