Secular vs Sacred - Part 1, Stories - 024

Jeff, Mona (Umami) and Allen (Smellfungus) start a new series of episodes this week on the secular vs sacred.  Their first stop on this journey is exploring the sacredness, or lack of sacredness, in stories.  Our hosts specifically explore the mediums of art, media and even the Bible.  Our discussion of the sacred leads into a mash up of Apples 2 Apples and Balderdash, called Appledash.
