Episode 44: The Theology of Beyoncé

Wherein Them Pastors discuss the Queen Bey with guest Isabel Johnson.  Along the way, there is talk of time travel, space travel, and why there is a generational gap between the desire to go to space and go back in time.  They then walk through a feast of Beyoncé tracks, breaking down why she is an important artist (even if she’s not your jam), and the importance of confidence, representation, and controlling the narrative.  There’s also a visit or two from the Context Robot to set things right.  We also planted a game in this episode: How many times do our hosts (and guest) say the phrase “100%”?  If you want to go advanced, tell us exactly how many times each person said it in this hour long episode.

The person who tells us the right numbers just might get a fancy prize…

“100%.”
