29:41 – Were the “fiery flying serpents” with six wings who attacked the Israelites angels or jet planes? How did a snake on a pole heal the victims of these attacks? Why did the World Health Organization, the American Medical Association and numerous other medical groups adopt this symbol as their own? What’s the difference between the Rod of Asclepius and the Caduceus? Why did Balaam’s ass see the angel (malach) in the middle of the road while Balaam did not? Who or what made the ass speak? Dave in Kentucky speaks from a similar source as he suggests answers to these and other questions.

29:36 – The Yahwelians rig yet another miracle by means of their superior scientific knowledge, but they leave some clues indicating how they did it. Dave in Kentucky attempts to solve what Erle Stanley Gardner might have called The Case of the Blossoming Rod. Also: Did the Levites live high on the hog on the public dime? Why did the Edomites hold a grudge against the Israelites? Why were Moses and Aaron denied access to the Promised Land? Et cetera.

30:12 – Are the Anakim, Nephilim, Watchers and Anunnaki all branches of the same family tree? Do giant tools imply giant tool-users? Does Dave’s falsetto voice remind you of a Monty Python skit? Why send out spies if you’re not going to believe their reports? Is gathering firewood on the Sabbath deserving of the death penalty? Which is more deadly, a sinkhole or a death ray? Dave in Kentucky tells you what he thinks, and all he asks is that if you don’t like his answers, just please don’t kill the messenger.

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.

30:02 – An active volcano in the distance, which appeared as a pillar of smoke in the daytime and a pillar of fire at night, had previously led the Israelites to Mt. Sinai, where more smoke and fire accompanied the landing of a Yahwelian ship carrying a very important personage with a very important legal document. What better way to lead the Israelites through the wilderness than by artificially producing the symbols that they were already accustomed to following? Also: Passover, bugle calls, manna, food cravings, and fire-of-Yahweh overreactions. Bonus question: Are Jabal al-Lawz and Jabal Maqla the Biblical Mt. Horeb and Mt. Sinai?

30:00 – When the Israelites pulled up stakes and set out through the wilderness and across the desert, did they travel in a wagon train? Why did Samson believe the source of his great strength was his hair? Was it a blessing to see the face of God, or a death sentence? Weren’t all the animal sacrifices literally overkill? Did the voice of God emanate from an old-time radio receiver? Dave in Kentucky doesn’t have all the answers, but at least he poses some interesting questions.
