15 - Operation Sodom and Gomorrah

The story of Sodom and Gomorrah has remained iconic for thousands of years, incorporated enthusiastically by later "Abrahamic" religions. But looking at it in its proper context, the Soddomite sin is more about breaking the laws of hospitality than lack of piety. Thank god a SWAT team was sent to extricate Abraham's brother from Sodom right before the carpet bombing. Gil and Omri discuss. Support our podcast on Patreon!
