1.17 - Part 2: Saintly Patrons of Everything from Ale to Zzz's

Thankfully our intrepid hosts invested in a time machine, and were able to restore the studio in time to release this week's episode! Confused? Make sure to check out yesterday's video episode chronicling the Glutenati's efforts to wipe out The G.O.D. Pod like it was crumbs being swept under the rug.

Now back to the adventures into the past, as the (bizarre and unusual) saints keep on marching in. Kinsey and Ellie continue with their quest to uncover history's most unique patron saints in part 2 of episode 17. Today you'll learn all about the best of the rest of history's oddest pious partisans. Like St. Bibiana looking out for those with headaches and hangovers, or St. Erasmus aka St. Elmo and his famous fire protecting sailors (oh and childbirth and intestinal distress to boot). Then there's St. Genesius for actors, entertainers, clowns, and lastly torture victims. Plus St. Giles looking out for beggars, hermits, and breastfeeding. The fun continues with St. Julian, patron of both hosts/hostesses and murderers. St. Theodore makes it rain (or not) while St. Vitus encourages the early birds to rise and shine. The saintly soiree winds down with the always entertaining saints George, Nicholas, and Patrick. So which patron saint do you like best? Let us know!
