All aboard the NSS Curious Workmanship as we sail together across the Atlantic Ocean on a boat built by a guy who has never built a boat in his life! What could go wrong? Join us as we talk about some of our favorite ships, our new favorite human Charles Joughin, why God would make raw meat taste like Captain Crunch, and revisit how much Nephi sucks as a human being.

Moroni presents our themed drink this week, the Spiked Tea! I mean… the Cup Runneth Over! I mean… the Sailor Nephi!

Next, Abish captivates us with a harrowing tale of Nephi’s poor family suffering the consequences of Lehi’s choices and Nephi’s crimes! Don’t worry though, because having to give birth in the wilderness and then chow down on raw meat is just part of how God tests the righteous ones, don’t you remember EGYPT?! As usual, Nephi is a dick to his brothers and a kissass to the Lord.

AaaAAAaa shares with us the lesson from the latest church manual, about how Nephi was a GoOd eXaMpLe to his brothers by modeling blind and unquestioning obedience. Suggestions include having children recite scripture in unison, which is apparently meant to be a beautiful learning experience and not a scene from every horror movie about cults. Cue reprise of Children’s Song About Murder.

Abish reminds us how, once again, Joseph Smith wasn’t even the first one to come up with a theory about Pre-Columbian transoceanic contact theories, nor was he the first to suggest Jewes in America. In the least surprising plot twist in history, it turns out this kinda thing is deeply rooted in racism and white colonialism. She presents us with some 100% totally authentic and real archaeological evidence that definitely proves that the Book of Mormon is a true historical record.
