TBF 228 Boys will be Boys

Hey there, welcome to another episode of the Blacksmith’s Furnace with Rob, Pete and Man lyk Mo.

This week we’re out here talking about how Boys will always be boys.

In Sorry Not Sorry Pete assumed the position in the hot seat and discussed contacting our ancestors spiritually, Why Elijah was present during the transfiguration of Christ, instead of Elisha who performed twice as many recorded miracles and if the people who flip the switch or administer the lethal injection to inmates on Death row are guilty, in the eyes of the Lord, of murder / sin.

Today’s conversation starts in a gentleman’s club and goes on to be a discussion on if gender specific spaces are still necessary in today’s society and culture of apparent “indiscriminate inclusion”.

For our hookups Peter stays on theme with a rated R tv series available on Amazon Prime Video called The Boys have a watch if you dare here https://www.amazon.com/The-Boys-Season-1/dp/B07QNJCXZK Mo brought back the sacred with Lecrae’s latest album Restoration check it out here https://lecrae.com/
