25:15 – This episode is dedicated to the memory of Jim Kloss, whom I interviewed on the show in 2016 in Philadelphia. Jim was one of my dearest friends, a mentor in life, and a wonderful human being. Recorded late one evening wandering around a park in Sydney.
Jim was, along with Frank from The Overnightscape, the reason I got into internet radio back in 2003. I wouldn’t be uploading my thoughts in audio and text if it weren’t for his inspiration and words of encouragement. He will be missed, but remembered. ?

30:17 – In addition to the Biblical account of the Great Flood, there were at least three earlier Middle Eastern accounts, in the Eridu Genesis, the Epic of Atrahasis, and the Epic of Gilgamesh. The human heroes of these stories were Ziusudra, Atrahasis, and Utnapishtim, respectively. Were these just different names for Noah, or were they different people altogether? Was the Yahweh who decided to drown mankind the same Yahweh who decided to save them from drowning? Was the flower of monotheism grafted onto polytheistic roots? Were the Igigi “lesser gods” just lower-class Anunnaki? And just exactly what did the gods carry in their handbags? Dave in Kentucky will attempt to answer all these questions and more, and while he may just be talking to the wall, he hopes there’s somebody listening on the other side of that wall.
Show art: From an ancient Sumerian cylinder seal depicting the god Enki talking over a wall to Ziusudra, Public Domain.
