A special joint-parsha episode for the week of Matot-Masei: Agnes & Ezra in conversation about this week's double parsha (strangely, the first double parsha of the year this year). Really I think this was just a very difficult and upsetting Torah portion and we were both afraid to do it alone. This is a throwback to the first era of this podcast, when we had rambling conversations about the holidays and asked four questions. And our questions this time around are not even questions. They are just four topics that we were too busy/lazy/excited to turn into questions. They are four rooms in a little bungalow. Join us on an intimate walkthrough: Q1. Cities of asylum? Q2. Horrific war? Q3. Vows? Q4. The end of the book of Bamidbar? Also: this episode has noticeable technical flaws! Editing: weird. Timing: off, due to some delay issue. Sound: pretty low quality, Agnes's audio gets better after a rocky start but it's all pretty low-fi. What are we, professionals? Chazak Chazak, see you in the book of Deuteronomy babes. [Music by Ezra Furman & Sam Durkes in a little practice room in Los Angeles, February 7th, 2017.]
