Zechariah's Prophetic Fever Dream: Donkeys, Flying Scrolls, and the Jesus Retcon


📝 Episode Summary:

Hold onto your chariots, folks—this episode is a wild theological autopsy of Zechariah, where prophecy, PTSD, and political propaganda come together like a DIY apocalypse starter kit. The hosts finally wrap up the Book of Zechariah, dissecting its two-part structure (First Zechariah: dreams and dates, Second Zechariah: undated messianic mayhem) while dunking on the absurd Christian rewrites that claim Jesus was foreshadowed by every flying scroll and basket-bound woman in sight. Spoiler: he wasn’t.


We get into the scholarly consensus that multiple authors likely Frankensteined this book together, and how Christians conveniently ignore that to force Jesus into every metaphor. Dirty laundry becomes spiritual cleansing. Donkeys become messianic Uber rides. And “The Branch”? Apparently a divine pseudonym no one asked for. The hosts also riff on everything from religious power grabs to their own family political drama—because nothing says “holy scripture” like Thanksgiving table trauma.

There's talk of satan not being Satan, visions that feel like bad acid trips, and the inevitable hijacking of Jewish apocalyptic literature to justify modern Christian nationalism. Bonus content: a mini rant on King James being a flaming homo and why that makes evangelicals accidentally hilarious.
