30:04 – Complaining about the lack of variety on the menu leads to even less variety for the following month, and a large number of deaths. Miriam doesn’t like the fact that her brother Moses has married an Ethiopian woman, so she engages in some seditious talk with her easily-influenced brother Aaron, whereupon as punishment she is turned even whiter than she already was. Moses sends twelve spies to scout out the Promised Land, where they encounter the Anakim, who are giant descendants of the Nephilim. But how is this possible if the Nephilim were wiped out in the Great Flood? Also: Speculation about the role interstellar objects like Oumuamua and the Borisov Comet might have played in the development of early man.
