The Dead Elephants Podcast

What happens when sex is on the rocks, and not in a fun way. Like in a serious we've got issues and we've got to work through them together. Duncan gears up to remind everyone that ALL CHURCHES SHOULD HAVE SEXOLOGISTS! Monica is probably the only reasonable person in the studio. Chris is on his 15th page of notes. We continue our sex chat, looking at dysfunction.

Listen up peeps, the studio gets at least 12 percent more steamy as we venture into the realm of sex with Monica. Chris addresses his quivering microphone, while Monica gives Duncan pointers on his hosting form. This kind of a conversation should happen after 9pm but just to be naughty we're releasing this episode at 8am. Buckle up tiger Monica is in the house.

Did someone touch my prayer candle! Seriously Chris has the most epic prayer robes ever, if only you could see them on your audio platform. Duncan checks into a monastery and we double down on the goodness of prayer. We're both pretty church Bridgetown church and John Mark Comer would be proud!

Is it time to sit down and revisit the bible, it's now like old....super super old. If Jesus doesn't understand how to be Cap what do we do if his book at best is Mid. I was writing this and trying to figure out how to put cowabunga in, but that only shows my age. Sweet mercy the bible is like a million years old! Ok, hopefully Chris and Duncan can find a way that the bible doesn't off...

Sadly after months of underachieving KPI's Chris administers a much needed 360 review on Duncan's performance as a pastor. The results aren't good, but we all knew that Duncan spends most of his time lowering the bar of expectations for pastors and churches. Chris kindly administers the beating with pool noodles and we can all be gracious he's so sweet and kind. Coincidently Chris...

Well it's time to uncork on some major in house issues. Chris takes personal offence against every jerk christian throughout all of human history. Duncan on the other hand has a few choice words for everyone. That's right you're a jerk, you get called a jerk, that guy in the back....total jerk....everyone its time to be one giant jerk sandwich.

I guess we do awkward topics, and so it's time for a couple of dads to weigh in on dating.
