This is episode 25 of The Spirit of the Forest, an audio |
|
drama, dark comedy, and variety show that reflects upon |
|
the sadness, the absurdity, and normalcy of modern life. |
|
Each episode is a blend of fiction and reality, and |
|
explores a range of topics and ideas. |
|
|
|
On this edition, we pray with some volunteers from Pat |
|
Robertson's 700 Club Prayer Line, for the unfortunate |
|
victims of the Bowling Green massacre and those in Sweden |
|
and Atlanta. The Jesus energy grows feisty in the first |
|
call, leaving our poor caller shouting at the operator. |
|
We also hear an interview with comedian and podcast host |
|
Marc Maron (voiced by Jess D), that doesn't turn out to |
|
be much other than Marc getting angry with our host. It |
|
was a flop. The flop continues with more prayer for the |
|
victims of the attacks, but with a less feisty prayer |
|
partner, Bob. |
|
|
|
We venture to the forest to hear the tale "Fecundity" by |
|
Guy de Maupassant, as told in a modern day adaptation. |
|
This story details the account of a Senator in his young |
|
days, when he unwittingly impregnated a motel maid, and |
|
returned to meet his bastard son decades later. It's a |
|
sordid tale of father, son, heredity, and fruitful |
|
unintentions. |
|
|
|
We conclude with an experimental narrative recorded in |
|
the mountains near the Terwilliger Hot Springs, with a |
|
mix of snow, biological observation, rocks, and other |
|
discovered elements. |
|
|
|
This episode features the vocal talent of Cheyne Willems, |
|
Adam Hughes, Dan Crall, Cleo and Bob (700 Club Phone |
|
operators), Pat Robertson, Gretchen Boyer, Jess D, and |
|
the music of Holtech, Kent Sparling, and the on-hold |
|
music used by Global Vision Bible Church in Mt. Juliet, |
|
TN. |
