Shownotes Transcript

***“This is not a place for grieving; it is a place for rest.” ***

Part one of the longest notes Darien has ever compiled for the show. 

Other topics include Egypt being *really *old with a lot going on, the true purpose of pyramids, Darien refusing to be distracted by DJ’s shenanigans, a brief pitstop to look up all Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, how annoying it would be to get call in for pyramid duty on your day off, celebrations of corn and leavened bread, and some perhaps unfair criticism of Stonehenge.

Content Warning: This episode contains mentions of and conversations about death, the afterlife, homophobia, transphodia, imperialism, and colonization.
