This week on What The Frock?, Rabbi Dave and Friar Rod take on a world that seems determined to trip over its own absurdities. The conversation begins with NBC issuing a bizarre correction to a story on the Minneapolis Catholic school shooting, where the network felt the real offense was not the act of violence itself but the pronoun used for the killer. That sparks a larger debate about affirming care, mental illness, and the ways our culture apologizes for delusion while ignoring reality.
From there the show veers into the strange realm of internet stupidity. A Polish CEO steals a signed tennis cap from a child, teachers film political rants on TikTok, and Coldplay fans destroy their own sponsors. Through it all, Dave and Rod bring their mix of sharp humor, blunt honesty, and historical perspective. If you want satire with substance, this episode delivers.
