Tohu va Bohu Radio Podcast

Many people ask me what tohu va bohu means and I am always happy to translate: “without form and void.” The inspiration for the name is described on my About page:

The first time I ever heard the phrase tohu va bohu was in 1997. My friend, Josh Seat (then Professor of Communications, now an Agent in the USSS), and I hosted a radio show at The Master’s College on KTMC AM 820. As you might imagine, a more apropos name could not have been selected to designate (and define) our program.

My wife recently unearthed some tape recordings of half a dozen or so shows. And since no one uses cassettes and since apparently I’m not afraid to embarrass myself, I’ve started capturing them digitally and am sharing the void with you.

What follows is from the inaugural episode of the Tohu va Bohu Radio Show, September 15, 1997. In this episode there are audio mishaps, the Carman Challenge, a call-in from Nathan Busenitz, and so much more. I’ve broken the show into two sections and each file is approximately one hour long. And I mean it when I say:

“Please move on. There is nothing to listen to here.”

You’ve been warned. Again.
