    This week on What the Frock?, the world shows up all at once, loudly, brightly, and with absolutely no regard for your attention span. Rabbi Dave and Friar Rod take their usual seats at the intersection of faith, culture, and mild incredulity, only to discover that the universe has decided to pile on the Winter Olympics, the Super Bowl, T20 cricket, modern politics, and medical bureaucracy before breakfast. It starts innocently enough with Olympic wonder, Italian mountains, music, and the simple joy of watching human beings do impossible things on snow. Then it veers, as it always does, into questions no one asked but everyone now has to live with, including how far elite athletes will go for a competitive edge and why you can never look at ski jumping the same way again. Along the way there is laughter, skepticism, and a deeply personal detour through an emergency room experience that feels uncomfortably familiar in the modern age. Politics makes its entrance, spectacle does what spectacle always does, and cricket reminds us that hope is a fragile thing. This is not a neat episode. It is not meant to be. It is a conversation for a crowded Sunday morning world, curious, amused, slightly appalled, and still willing to laugh. Welcome back.

    This week on Dave Does History, the American Revolution is stripped of its romance and examined where wars are actually won or lost: logistics. Picking up in the brutal winter of 1775–1776, Dave Bowman walks listeners into British-occupied Boston, a city encircled, frozen, and starving. What emerges is not a tale of grand ideology or battlefield heroics, but of an empire choking on distance, delay, and bureaucratic blindness. British troops, unable to be properly supplied or housed, turn to distraction, staging plays in the heart of a Puritan city while hunger and resentment close in around them. That misplaced confidence collapses spectacularly on January 8, 1776, when American forces exploit the moment to strike, not for victory, but for humiliation and message. From there, the story widens. Boston becomes a case study in imperial failure, revealing how the Atlantic Ocean, slow communication, and fractured governance undermine Britain’s ability to rule from afar. Through the lens of Jefferson’s grievances and Eisenhower’s warning that professionals study logistics, this episode reframes the Revolution as an autopsy of a system that could not outrun distance. It is not a story of sudden defeat, but of slow erosion, where an empire discovers too late that power cannot survive on assumptions alone.

    Language is a fragile thing. It carries memory, meaning, and moral weight, and when it breaks, it rarely breaks quietly. Two thousand years ago, Cicero warned that a republic does not collapse all at once. It hollows out first, word by word, until the language of virtue remains but the substance is gone. The buildings still stand. The speeches still sound familiar. But something essential has already been lost. Today, we find ourselves in that same uneasy moment. Our political vocabulary has become a weapon. Labels replace arguments. Outrage substitutes for reason. When every opponent is called a Nazi, when every disagreement is treated as existential evil, persuasion dies and power takes its place. History tells us where that road leads, and it is never somewhere good. In this episode of *What the Frock*, Rabbi Dave and Friar Rod dig into the corruption of public language and why it matters far more than most people want to admit. Drawing on Cicero, the prophet Jeremiah, and the hard lessons of history, they ask a simple but dangerous question. What happens to a society when words stop meaning what they say? This is not a partisan conversation. It is a moral one. A call for precision, courage, and restraint in a culture addicted to noise. Welcome to *What the Frock*.
