Podcast Title: 101 Absurd Laws in the Bible

Description:
Step into the strange, fascinating, and often hilarious world of ancient rules with 101 Absurd Laws in the Bible. This podcast uncovers the quirky, head-scratching, and sometimes downright bizarre laws found in scripture—rules that once guided communities thousands of years ago but now sound surreal in today’s world.

From regulations about fabrics you can’t wear together, to punishments for cutting your hair the wrong way, to dietary restrictions that leave bacon lovers weeping, we’ll break down each law with humor, historical context, and critical insight. But this isn’t just about poking fun—each episode also explores the cultural backdrop of these rules: Why were they written? What problems were they trying to solve? And what do they reveal about ancient life, power, and human attempts to make sense of the world?

Whether it’s laws about farming, food, fashion, family, or what to do if your ox gores your neighbor (yes, that’s in there), we’ll take a lighthearted yet thoughtful look at how these peculiar codes shaped early societies and how they’ve echoed through history.

Perfect for skeptics, believers, history buffs, or anyone who loves finding the absurdity in the everyday, 101 Absurd Laws in the Bible is part comedy, part scholarship, and fully entertaining. By the end, you’ll laugh, you’ll learn, and you’ll never look at a mixed-fiber sweater the same way again.
