My Book Of Mormon

Well, it finally happened. The Nephites are all dead. Total genocide. I'm not sure who to blame either, it seemed to me like the Lamanites slaughtered them all, but Mormon is convinced that it was God that did the killing. Then good ol' Moroni comes back, but he's not nearly as fun as we remember him from Episode 1. Actually, he's pretty racist, and quite a bit judgy.    “Drink” Count – 35 Almost 6 beers  

This is the "back and forth" episode. Everyone is good, then everyone gets evil. God likes the Nephites, then God hates the Nephites. The Nephites are winning the war, the Lamanites are winning the war, then the Nephites get the upper hand, then the Lamanites... “Drink” Count – 49 A little over 8 beers  

If you’ve given up on Jesus because he was just too boring or confusing, then you’ve gotta listen to this one! No joke, he takes these three random dudes and turns them into pure awesomeness! Seriously, it’s hard to describe just how awesome these dudes are. You just have to listen for yourself. “Drink” Count – 41 Almost 7 beers  

Jesus keeps talking, and talking, and talking. It's unclear whether or not he even understands what he's talking about, but that doesn't stop him for babbling on about it. Also, we learn that Jesus and the angel Moroni must hang out a lot because they both have the same habit of jumping back and forth between heaven and earth without any warning or explanation. “Drink” Count – 34 (this includes the freebie after chapter 22) Almost 6 beers  

Scott and David rack their brains for an hour trying to figure out what in the world Jesus is talking about. Sadly, I'm not sure if we even get close. Seriously though, has anyone been able to make sense of all this babbling? I don't know how much longer Jesus is going to stick around, but it kinda feels like he's outstayed his welcome. “Drink” Count – 25 (this includes the 12 Verily’s) A little over 4 beers  

So, Jesus says a bunch of random stuff about Jews and Gentiles, then he heals a bunch of people (isn't that nice of him?), and then he pulls a magic trick and poofs back to heaven. But just when you thought we'd have to miss him forever, Jesus pops back in the next day. Who knows how long he's going to stay this time?  “Drink” Count – 46 (this includes the 13 Verily’s) Almost 8 beers (finally a good drinking episode!)  

If you've read the New Testament of the Bible, then I'm afraid there isn't very much in this one in the way of new material. However, with his second stop on his world tour, Jesus does make a few tweaks to his act so you'd better be paying attention! And then Jesus teaches us that we should never ask god for anything (especially not food, water, or clothes), and then later he tells us that all we need to do is ask god and we will receive... So yeah, who knows? “Drink” Count – 14 (this includes the 9 Verily’s) Just a little over 2 beers (weak!) And don’t forget to vote for the show for The 2014 Brodie Awards!

Back by very popular demand, Scott from My Biased Opinion joins us again to try and make sense of Jesus' ramblings. We are then given a surprise visit by none other than the great Adam Reakes from The Herd Mentality Podcast, where we get a sneak peek at his latest audio masterpiece. Which is good, because we need something to entertain us while Jesus goes on and on trying to finish his second performance of the sermon on the mount.   “Drink” Count – 19 (this includes the 14 Verily's)  Just a little over 3 beers   And don’t forget to nominate the show for The Annual Podcast Awards!

This one starts off with mormon god bragging about all the people he just burned, drowned, buried alive, etc. I get a little pissed (well, maybe a little more than a little) and I let god know how I feel about him and his murderous rampage.  But things take a turn for the better because our boy Jesus shows up! But I hope you didn't have very high expectations, because there seems to be something wrong with his head. “Drink” Count – 25 Just a little over 4 beers   And don't forget to vote for the show at The Annual Podcast Awards!

Things start out a little boring as everyone is finally living in peace. But we don't have to wait long before Satan comes in and starts messing with everyone and turning them back to the dark side. And just when you think things can't get any worse, Jesus goes and gets himself killed on the other side of the planet which (for some reason) causes the most horrific natural disasters you could imagine to afflict the Americas. I'm actually not really sure if anyone actually survived. “Drink” Count – 28 Almost 5 beers  

In this episode we're joined by Scott from the My Biased Opinion blog. And together we read about all the robbers getting senselessly slaughtered, but good news, anyone that survived the carnage is now good and righteous! Then this mysterious figure named Mormon shows up and starts claiming that he's been writing this book the whole time. How is that even possible?   “Drink” Count – 23 Almost 4 beers And don't forget to check out Scott's awesome blog My Biased Opinion

We start out with the "bright as noon day" night to tell us that the big man Jesus himself was finally born, yet somehow a bunch of those Nephites and Lamanites remain as stiffnecked as ever. Then those Gadianton robbers offer a truce, but the Lord's people choose to fight rather than surrender! The stage is set for an epic battle! “Drink” Count – 38 A little over 6 beers   And here's the "Thank You" that all the Mymo's received from Dale McGowan, Ph.D., Exec. Director of Foundation Beyond Belief   

For our 60th episode, we are joined by Philip Wells from SAB Books who is in the process of writing The Skeptic's Annotated Book of Mormon.  And then we get back into Helaman where we learn about some incredible astronomical and meteorological phenomenon that supposedly occurred in the America's during the birth and death of Jesus. Oh, and then zombies get referenced again, but once again we don't really get any good zombie details. “Drink” Count – 28 Almost 5 beers   Check out The Skeptic's Annotated Book of Mormon And also check out Philips blog at Dwindling in Unbelief  

God gives Nephi a ton of superhero powers, and Nephi decides to use them to starve thousands of people to death. What a great guy! And then we learn how much god thinks we're all pretty much usless. I'm not gonna lie, this one is a bit depressing. “Drink” Count – 83 Almost 14 beers!!  

Happy New Year's Mymos! In this one Nephi v2.0 gets on his prayer tower, which sounds an awful lot like one of those evil Nehor towers, or maybe he's a Muslim, who knows. He then lives up to his namesake by telling everyone how evil they are and then prophecies about the new Chief Judge getting murdered, or did he plot the murder himself? What a conspiracy! “Drink” Count – 51 8 and a half beers!  

This one starts out a little preachy, but it doesn't take long before the action starts. We've got people bursting into flames, god whispers from the sky, earthquakes, dark clouds covering the earth, and a whole lot more! And the surprises continue as the Nephites and Lamanites decide to switch sides in the whole "good guy/bad guy" thing.  Oh yeah, and then the evil capitalists finally defeat those godly socialists.    “Drink” Count – 61 A little over 10 beers!  

We start out with lots of family drama since our good friend Pahoran went off and died. After a lot of killing, the Lamanites sneak in again and take the Zarahemla with barely a fight. The struggle for land possessions goes back and forth as both sides try to out "stiffneck" each other.  “Drink” Count – 65 Almost 11 beers!  

More battles! And this one even has a little civil war thrown in too! But then we say goodbye to all our friends like Moroni, Helaman, Teancum, Ammoran, and Shiblon. While that might seem sad, we also get to meet a new Goddess! “Drink” Count – 53 Almost 9 beers!   And don’t forget to check out David Michael's interview on Mormon Stories Podcast!  

The Nephites lose another city and Moroni decides that it's all the government's fault. Then he goes into conspiracy theory mode and threatens a military coup if the government doesn't give in to his demands. The stage is set for more excitement as the never ending book of Alma isn't done yet! “Drink” Count – 69 11 and a half beers!! And a huge thank you to the Mymo Family for their support of the Dogma Debate 24 Hour Broadcastathon for Foundation Beyond Belief (Press Release)

We finally have another guest! This time Bryce Blankenagel from Naked Mormonism Podcast joins us to talk about his show and to enjoy some good old Alma action. Those amazing 2000 boys are at it again laying waste to everything in their path. They are truly unstoppable! “Drink” Count – 26 Almost 4 and a half beers
