About this listen

It wouldn’t release its grip. After applying cleansers, vinegar, even boiling water, it stuck to his floor. Finally, I chiseled away the sliver of sauteed onion, a ubiquitous plant that germinates in the earth. I had an epiphany! So I started a new religion: The Planet Is What It Is. A small, quirky congregation meets weekly for Do It Yourself sermons, when they share observable consequences arising even if you're just doing laundry. They observe that religion seems to be influential, but the planet continually spawns war, hate, poison, poverty, onions, and seedless watermelon. Using poster paper and crayons, the congregation tackles revising the Ten Commandments--2.0 with footnotes. The text is mostly light-hearted dialogue, not a rant, nor diatribe against religion. The currency for the weekly donation is doughnuts, not the plain kind.
