Season 6 Premiere Poll

In celebration of our 6th season premiere on Patreon, a poll question for you:

Let's say you recently bought a new car, and its license plates arrived in the mail today. You peel open the package and observe that the final three numbers on the plates are "666."

How do you react?


REMINDER: If you haven't signed up for one of our "NEW SEASON 6" tiers, you can party with this poll, but you can't listen to our new episode with William Friedkin, or any other episode on Patreon. The tier you are in now will be destroyed soon. It is not safe. Only the new tiers are available now. Choose one today, sign up and join the revolution!

Thump, I don’t think I have to explain to you that Christian theology and mythos is rooted in the inability to hold 2 opposing (or even just more than one) concepts at once. I quoted Google—that’s not an authority, but (sadly) reflects popular consensus.

M. Nero Nava

Yeah but the Antichrist and Satan are two completely different concepts that have nothing to do with one another. You are correct though. The Antichrist is closer to a totalitarian, godless government. Satan is more complicated. Old Testament Satan is a tool that Yahweh has wrapped around His fingers for His purposes. New Testament Satan is a little more scary as a threat which challenges the believers faith. Modern Satan is basically anti-authoritarian, libertarianism. Either way, Satan is a loser. He’ll get his comeuppance. You can never win in a fight against the one true God.

Literally me

Fuck Satan. He’s a loser. Cringe as fuck, yo. He’s got no drip. I’ll stick with my guy JC.

I can't remember if Bret has ever discussed the Beach Boys. I've always been a major fan. Probably it's the first musical common ground I had with my mother (aside from Marine cadence, oddly enough...she bought a cassette in Paris Island when my older brother graduated from training, if 'graduated' is the right word). There are a couple of compelling bios about the Beach Boys and their deteriorated relationship with one another this far into their golden years -- those who remain with us. (Gah! I always hated when people said that, 'with us.' But what do you care? haha.) Audible lists a new BB book coming out soon. Appropriately it is titled Why the Beach Boys Matter by Tom Smucker (I swear I'm not him...I have no books published. *Sad Trumbone*) Anyway, I'm sure Tom Smucker (man, that surname would be red meat for the bullies at school) would be agreeable to talk with Bret. He'd an asshole if he wasn't, just from a business standpoint. Bret or Adam, if the idea of discussing Brian Wilson at the very least does nothing for you, I'd like to make a case for why the other listeners would, erm, probably just tolerate it, haha. No, seriously, I think Bret Easton Ellis doing a deep dive into the mind of Brian Wilson and the Beach Boys generally would be *checks the news* a reason to get out of bed. Just like every new BEE Podcast episode is a reason to scale new fronTIERS.

Trump.

My P.O. Box is 666. A very difficult PO to get a box at and no one else would take it. I love it!

Evan Disser

Is BEE Podcast tier price inflation the fault of Biden or Putin?

Michael Walsh

You'd be surprised.

John

Shard666 would be fire

R. M.

Who would be a BEE fan and also a superstitious Christian? What a weirdo.

KCDC

Mickey Down

664: neighbor of the Beast

Mickey Rock

Lousy barcodes!

Alec K. Redfearn

My old phone numbers prominently featured a 666.

YourLateNightFriend

I’d drive that car straight into Hell, ie Dallas traffic.

George Quartz

Opened this while watching The Ninth Gate. Which I’m watching because Depp is in my city right now, Newcastle upon Tyne, England… 👺

Romeo Delta Charlie

I thought 616 was the NotB

Michael

My phone number ends with 666… it gets funny reactions.

Mitch Jordan

I already have a vanity plate with an HP Lovecraft reference on it. I eould enjoy a 666 plate

Lack of response

Pure bliss.

Ashley

Iron Maiden cassettes come out of storage

Luke Monroe

Google says: “Preterist theologians typically support the interpretation that 666 is the numerical equivalent of the name and title Nero Caesar (Roman Emperor 54–68 AD). Written in Aramaic, this can be valued at 666 using the Hebrew numerology of gematria, and was used to secretly speak against the emperor.” My name is Michael Nero. My friends (and the lord) call me “Nero”.

M. Nero Nava

Dustyn beat me to it: METAL AS FUCK!

Scott Wilcox

Brad Coy
