Infants on Thrones
Summary: An entertaining podcast about self-awareness and discovery. The title Infants on Thrones is an homage to the Mormon Founder Joseph Smith who said, in his lesser-known King Follet discourse, that eternity is full of thrones, upon which dwell thousands of children, reigning on thrones of glory, with not one cubit added to their stature. It is a funny image, but it also suggests that we, as amateur podcasters, do not really have all the answers we may think we do. We can't take ourselves too seriously. We are also Infants on Thrones.

What do you get when you take a figuratively humiliating undressing in front of a dozen basketball-playing missionaries, add in an even more humiliating literal undressing a few weeks later in an elementary school playground, mix it up with an obscene and somewhat racist Mexican Man, some fake excrement on a toilet handle, a missionary’s […]
