Jordan and Luci discuss the life of Samson.

Listen here.

Shownotes:

• Turns out there’s not a Buzzfeed quiz for “Would you date a Samson?” but there is this one (Jordan got Ruth)
• We discuss Samson’s miraculous birth announcement, just like Isaac’s, Jacob & Esau’s, Samuel’s, John the Baptist’s, and Jesus’s
• The angel makes a Dumbledore phoenix exit
• Three songs about Samson from:
  • Regina Spektor
  • Leonard Cohen (those strictly observing a no “A-word” Lent may want to avoid this until after Easter)
  • The New Radicals
• If you think about it, Samson is basically Hercules
  • (Hercules, Hercules)
• What do you think, is Samson’s hair more like Tarzan’s or Aladdin’s?
• Jordan wonders if Samson’s wife is like Rose from Get Out
• Samson is often artistically depicted as a black character, which can be problematic
• Luci quotes that eminent source, Post Secret
