  • When Belief Meets Reality...
    2026/08/09
    Sometimes the biggest story isn't what happened. It's what people do when they're challenged to defend what they claim to believe. This week on What The Frock?, Rabbi Dave and Friar Rod dive into a series of stories that, at first glance, seem completely unrelated. A celebrated Cambridge professor resigns after questions emerge about his remarkable résumé. Candace Owens and the culture of perpetual "just asking questions" come under the microscope. The conversation turns back to the COVID years, Anthony Fauci's congressional testimony, and whether public officials truly stood behind the decisions they made when it mattered most. The discussion then shifts to Washington State, where climate policy collides with economic reality. If government leaders genuinely believe the principles they're promoting, why do their own decisions sometimes point in a very different direction? Dave argues that actions are often the clearest window into what people really believe, and that institutions, politicians, and public figures alike eventually reveal themselves through the choices they make. Along the way, the conversation lightens with stories from Dave and Cami's anniversary trip to Victoria, British Columbia. Afternoon tea, a marathon walk that wasn't supposed to be one, an enjoyable crossing aboard the MV Coho, and even an unexpected cricket conversation with a Canadian cab driver remind listeners that life's best moments often come between the headlines. The episode wraps up with a look at the future of radio, podcasting, and artificial intelligence, asking where authentic human conversation fits into a rapidly changing media landscape. Whether you're interested in politics, culture, current events, or simply enjoy thoughtful conversations mixed with humor and personal stories, this episode has something to make you think. Join Rabbi Dave and Friar Rod as they ask a question that echoes through every topic: when words and actions collide, which one tells the truth?

  • The Great New Fire of 1776 | DDH
    2026/08/04
    For most Americans, the story of September 1776 begins and ends with Nathan Hale. We remember the young schoolteacher turned patriot spy, the gallows, and the words that have echoed through American history: "I only regret that I have but one life to lose for my country." But Hale's final days unfolded against the backdrop of an even larger drama. Just two months after the Declaration of Independence, George Washington's army stood on the brink of collapse. At Kip's Bay, frightened American soldiers broke and ran before the advancing British Army, leaving Washington in one of the darkest moments of his military career. New York City, the largest city in British North America, fell into British hands, while the Continental Army barely escaped destruction. Then, in the middle of the occupation, disaster struck. In the early hours of September 21, a massive fire erupted at the southern tip of Manhattan. Driven by fierce winds, the flames raced through the wooden city, destroying hundreds of buildings and transforming British victory into panic. Was it an accident? An act of sabotage? Or the opening move in a campaign of resistance? Nearly 250 years later, historians still cannot answer that question with certainty. As British soldiers searched desperately for the people they believed had set the city ablaze, Nathan Hale quietly entered New York on a dangerous intelligence mission for George Washington. Within days, he would be captured, condemned as a spy, and executed. At the same time, Washington faced a crisis within his own army, forcing him to decide whether discipline demanded another execution or whether mercy would better serve the cause of independence. This week on Dave Does History, we explore one of the most dramatic and overlooked weeks of the American Revolution, when fire, fear, espionage, and leadership reshaped the struggle for independence and revealed that the Revolution would not be won by words alone.

  • Baboons In the Road
    2026/08/02
    This week on What The Frock?, Rabbi Dave and Friar Rod discover that the best-laid plans never survive first contact with the morning news. What begins with tourists ignoring warnings and climbing an active volcano quickly spirals into one of the strangest conversations the show has ever produced. Before long, they're discussing baboons digging through garbage, social media's obsession with creating content at any cost, and why one bizarre interview became the perfect metaphor for modern culture. From there, the conversation turns to the latest controversy surrounding the WNBA, Sophie Cunningham, and the ongoing debate over biological males competing in women's sports. Along the way, Dave raises a question that few people seem willing to ask: if the movement's logic is consistent, why are there no openly transgender athletes playing in the WNBA? The second half of the episode shifts from sports to technology as the pair examine reports that artificial intelligence companies are purchasing printed books, cutting them apart, scanning every page, and destroying the originals to train AI models. For two lifelong lovers of books and history, the practice raises unsettling questions about the future of literature, publishing, and preserving the written word. Finally, they close with another reminder that reality is often stranger than satire, exploring how modern news organizations can still be fooled by internet memes in an era when virtually everything has become content. It's an episode filled with humor, sharp observations, unexpected detours, and more than a few moments that leave everyone asking the same question: how did we get here? Join Rabbi Dave and Friar Rod for another lively edition of What The Frock?, where the week's headlines become the starting point for conversations you won't hear anywhere else.
