Here's one of the stranger episodes of "Bob"'s SlackTime Funhouse... In "Takin' Back JESUS!", I find myself on the ugly side of the spiritual tracks, going to bat for the Messiah, who's been Ariel Castro'ed by the Religious Right. With more versions of JESUS CHRIST SUPERSTAR than you've ever dreamed existed, this show is jampacked with Jesii! We have chunks of Darryl Rhoades, Larry Norman, Ed Kilbourne, Jimmy Swaggart, Robert Tilton, Jack Van Impe, Little Marcy, the Jesus Sound Explosion, and a shitload of selections from records with the subtitle "A Folk-Rock Musical about Jesus." Plus you'll hear the incredible acid-rock xtian album SOME BEAUTIFUL DAY by Pete Levin and Bill Comeau, which I like to dance naked to--and the bizarre "Jesus the Rebel" by an old cracker named Clarence Jordan, who relates the story of the crucifixion using the idiom of the KKK and the White Citizens' Council. WHAT THE FUCK.
Retooling my old Jesus show is timely: 2014 marks my 33rd year in the Church of the SubGenius. Yes, I've been in the trenches preaching the word of Dobbs for the length of ONE WHOLE JESUS. But of all the BSTFs, this show has scored over 1800 downloads and counting! Some of those MUST be inquisitive xtians drawn by the subject matter alone...but what the hell did they think of this show?!! Well, if it only served to expose the fuckers to The Amazing Delores...then it was worth it ALL.
NOTE: Apologies to the first 36 downloaders--on 8/18, I've uploaded a sound-corrected version with tighter edits. My bad.
