About Holy Fools Podcast

These guys are a joke. They’re just dilettantes, or perhaps multidimensional idiot savants (hold the savant part), opining on subjects beyond their ken: literature; theology; philosophy; politics; the arts. You get the picture; they just read too much. Get a life. There is a whole world out there with real living people in it just waiting for you guys. They also seem to be really concerned about something called ”nihilism,” although they can’t even define what ”nihilism” is. And they seem to think they’ve gone ”over the line” . . . whatever that means. Also, who is Ernst Junger? Why do they keep mentioning him? It’s ridiculous. Oh, and the kicker: I think they’re like bible-thumpers or something. Podcasts have really jumped the shark.
