\"\"<\/a>If you’re a regular subscriber<\/span> to the popular Relevant Podcast<\/a> produced by my friends at Relevant Magazine<\/span><\/a>, you know that it’s a rambling (and very funny) mishmash of pop culture news, religious musings, warnings about the coming Chimpocalypse, and other fun inanity. Or inane funity. One of those.<\/p>\n

What you may not know is that I — and the Pocket Guides<\/a> — get to mastermind a big chunk of this week’s podcast<\/a>. Instead of a straight-up “tell me about your books” interview, we decided to let me put together a Pocket Guide quiz for Cameron, Maya, Adam, and Tyler. I asked the questions and they attempted to answer them, to everyone’s great amusement.<\/p>\n

Questions and topics of discussion in my 25-minute segment include the following:<\/p>\n

\u2022 <\/span>the disembodied head of St. Denis
\u2022 <\/span>how St. Erasmus is like Steven Seagal
\u2022 <\/span>jackhammers from the future
\u2022 <\/span>bees
\u2022 <\/span>Macauley Culkin
<\/span>\u2022 <\/span>killer catfish
\u2022 <\/span>predictions of your impending demise
\u2022 <\/span>near-death experiences
\u2022 <\/span>regular death experiences
\u2022 <\/span>pistachios
\u2022 <\/span>demonic influence upon Bible translators
\u2022 <\/span>a terrifyingly large peacock head
\u2022 <\/span>my life’s purpose<\/p>\n

…among other things. Clearly you should listen to it.<\/p>\n
