Zechariah’s War Ponies & Wicker Baskets: God’s Weird Flex Continues


📝 Episode Summary:


Zechariah 9–11 reads like God’s unhinged Pinterest board—with enough cryptic metaphors to make Nostradamus look concise. In this chaotic Q&A, we unpack divine rants that include threats of smiting everyone from Tyre to shepherds who apparently didn’t vibe hard enough with Yahweh’s wrath playlist. Spoiler: God’s still mad. And petty. Very petty.


The hosts roast Zechariah’s greatest hits: a coming “king” who rides in humble on a donkey, cities flattened for fun, and something called "the Wailing of Lebanon"—which honestly sounds like a metal band. Also, don’t miss the part where God breaks his own magic sticks to symbolize a failed divine contract. Yup. God ghosted humanity with dramatic flair and zero accountability.


We also get real about the biblical obsession with shepherds (again), the oddly specific prophecy about thirty pieces of silver, and a creepy turn into apocalyptic cosplay that somehow passes for holy wisdom. If you’ve ever wanted to hear God fire everyone then blame them for getting fired, this one’s for you.

God just rage-quit humanity like a gamer smashing his controller—then blamed everyone else for lag.
