KINGS: National divorce (feat Trey Ferguson)

The Book of (First) Kings, chapters 11-16, a part of the Bible that's gonna sound like we chose it specifically because it was recorded in April 2025.

• But first, did you know the names of comically large wine bottle sizes are all named after Bible guys?
• Meet the rebel who might've been a big inspiration for the Moses story set centuries prior.
• Emily's as annoyed by Solomon as she has been by just about any character so far.
• Does a failson take the throne and immediately start yelling at an angry mob about his own penis? This is a Bible story, so you already know the answer.
• The Bible's oldest archeologically confirmed newspaper headline.

• Welcome Trey Ferguson, a pastor based in the Miami area who's also an author, podcaster, and tremendous poster. You're gonna like him a lot! Find all of his work via https://www.pastortrey05.com.
