Added context: “Man Eater” was the song Jason Staples played as Jenn’s walk-up song. (Yes, Jason plays walk-up songs for all his presenters. And yes, this should become standard practice.)

For context, that was the walk-up song @jasonstaples.bsky.social played for me 😂😂

One major SBL highlight this year—watching @jasonstaples.bsky.social introduce @davidaburnett.bsky.social (who gave a great response to a paper) with walk up music: Never Gonna Give You Up. #SBLAAR2024 Apparently, videos don’t work on this site so I’ll just leave this photo of David’s reaction.

Go check out the conversation Jodi Magness had with @jasonstaples.bsky.social on the OnScript podcast! And if you’re interested in hearing more about her article on toilets and toilet humor, check out my conversation with her from last year.

Friend just posted a newly published article, & on seeing title & abstract, I thought, “Whoa, this looks great! I’ve gotta read this one.” A little later, I received email from friend, “Thanks for your help with this one!” So my memory isn’t what it once was. I’m getting old.

Paul and the Resurrection of Israel is now available for preorder via Amazon (& elsewhere). I’ve been working toward this book since spring 2003—half my life. Can’t wait to have this one out in the world. amzn.to/3O2llss *Affiliate link
