In this episode of The Bee Weekly, Kyle and Ethan take time to recognize some heroes of the faith before looking at what G.K. Chesterton said about people who believe in themselves. In the subscriber lounge, Kyle asks Ethan the Next Ten Questions.
Kyle and Ethan honor heroes of the faith like a preacher catching himself before offending little people, a youth pastor talking about tents and nothing else, and a man who is ready to sing. Kyle and Ethan then read and discuss The Maniac, a chapter from G.K. Chesterton’s Orthodoxy. Join Kyle and Ethan in the subscribe lounge to learn more about the mysterious enigma wrapped in a riddle stuffed into a Creative Director that is Ethan Nicolle.

will record something so there's a lot.
When things going on a Monday is the desert.
Monday, the wild day in and what the wheat gets progressively. Crazier, twins and wednesdays, crazy Stay,
so then yeah Tuesday will interview, show innovations, men who take the personal lunch which can be guaranteed
It's like the whole day, because we can we really on the long live there, some government,

this day- is big podcast day
on Tuesday morning when I get an early are not early, but you know I try to get in like an hour before the interview and have a cigar and prepare could try to do that too.
exceed them, so he s also there. In my current who interviewing in all documents, there Youtube videos or whatever, unlike get ready mindset- and we start interviewing still you great
I gotta. Do I have a weird switch? I can fight because on this completely quiet and attack
but in an area like he will go under the Babylon. What's I'm too, I don't talk at all. I mean those middle talk. We don't tell him we're going out. We don't talk
he asked anyone Wednesday morning and get rid of the podcast, and then we do the podcast, and then you know
MAC the admiration and whatever else, working away, also wednesdays, crazy idea,
like your chest, county that night,
so easy to news desk or something also
some jasmine, Lord. The rings that day a lot going on here on wednesdays Thursday Friday is pretty
just buckle down, get work done day. So as not to be anything all the shows, we recorded estimating really a buckle down an animated. We got our other animated comes on Tuesday and Thursday to help out.
The Thursday's a big animation day for me, Friday, Rita getting done on Friday,.
when amazes me, as the evolution of where the bam
B was and what the work process was like just two years ago, and my job is reviewed months. My job different. While that's you,
personnel. That's how you get them on and the next thing and we build something new to build. I mean all of this would be: is from your head pretty much the pod cast the animation stuff, a lot of video stuff. You know we parliament we doing
my dream, when I myself is longer than about one because had big vision.
over a big, every vision and every time I've done an interview, ideas, everything done an interview for the last three four years or whatever they always ask. What do you do with words about long and began to expand to next say video, so we have no plan to do.
Yeah so to finally have happened- is prepared and felt so far now usin hath, yeah, yeah, just
I start working for the Babylon Bee full time three years ago. That's when assessing the siting, hire me full time
and it was entirely in my garage- I was even
Roger Dynamic in the living room, smoke the kitchen table- and I was in there in the camera that we might a higher you full time a year after that it must have been
a year. If you now hurry, we brought you on full time and you and I would go meet up at the cigar shop at once a week once every other week for awhile there before you were born.
I came higher value for as higher Ghana and when used, when you see
If a time you were still come on over to my arm to my garage you who sometimes we would just me wherever we could as levers seminary themselves were recorded in the ground here. He listened to that are very first episodes. A pug castles earned cows garage, but my days very much just trying to come up with six or seven headlines so
and I was just me sittin there trying to come up seven million on the key word.
Good good writers. That'll message had minds in ideas. We have low facebook group. Were people kick ideas around
I'm subscribers through ideas in our headline formed the premium. Subscribers can do that says and I still find some gold. There is a lot
dig through it. Doesnt there's gonna this magic. This idea of the MAGIC writers room where you, yes, it around the conference day all and come up with gold.
and that happens here, but it's usually just with video ideas, invidious groups, because you to build a rift with dialogue and where a sketch goes that's very fund. We can come up with stuff like that
when a concept is too broad right, it doesn't work. That's hard thing with: if it's just like headlines than slang model, even now,
hard thing when you writing a tv show or short, and you ve already got kind of about,
I figure AIDS is the main theme of the accounts are playing your ripping off of yeah. That's hard thing about. You haven't found that yet like
does the in person writers room for satire headlines? We would like to figure that out when working on it.
Yes, I'm still organ we're out of my house a couple of days a week to three days a week and then our common and recording days Windsor yesterday that we we record the main podcast in Lord of the rings:
we want a weekly dungeon dragon session. Would then Patrick Matin Gavin? That's all.
Ethan walks biogas birds, Emily
looks like talk to me like it's real life like after engine Gavin's, going like I got, stabbed in there was like a goblin and they kidnapped a lady, and there was yelling island hostage situation.
Do Leipzig, can't talk right now, two thousand and one without you
he had a little glimpse of them. Live in and also a big part of Kyle's day is driving because illicit fry faraway you just now you mistake, but I was just trying to Chesterton says
kind of cancer and how small community him not to get away from the city,
some are well we're gonna now look at some here is in effect, have scumbags. Here's a faith
its wings or its own.
when you're pastor by use of what you want to do, it you're always try to be careful to hurt anybody feelings out there when you preaching right,
so. He sent his guys a true heroic as he caught himself possibly hurt.

It makes me wonder, I guess we'll see what will happen after we must watch it. Watch him and actions. Take a look at this year of the Friday club.
The reason you lift your head is because you already believe you're saying I believe it is a new opportunity to confess anesthesia little guy in the back little guy
I'm not a midget, easy thinkers. Offending emitted go back to you, and I want to hear that that sir,
We did it and allowing arrogant, exhale the exhale of like

Is there a mention in the audience? It sounds like he's saying you must know, there's somebody in the audience
so like a different person. Not the portuguese colleague also isn't. Is this one?
no offensive because admitted it goes with Ngos in this image anymore. It's air little person, our fundamental the chances that there were a midget. There are pretty small.
and
It just makes, which makes it better. If there's no budget there,
it is true he's trying to save this whole thing from something that nobody was thinking
Or is it televised? It is another good images watching tuning in,
I love the way his mind works. Cuz he's like little guy in the back and if you, if you heard that you would think it's a kid like media thought, there's a kid in the back
goes, oh no little guy, their guns took care of me:
or you see the kid with his hand, Evan right next to Missus, permitting handle that you
full grown little guy around guy. That happens to be smaller as needed.
It's an audible cringe.
Did you? Dignity does as to keep going well speaking, up
audible cringe. We have to

This is another one that that is older than the internet, and I used to have this

Some of them were so what happened was with him when he did that he's getting you close the evil in what I would challenge- and you guys to not do was to pick friends we're gonna, let you did
a video there have now been saying on the real you keep going.
Have you never met
Sometimes, God has to be seen again. How does it feel like pretty good servant? Girl has to be full of justice.
So if we sensor that the link will be in the show no useter opening goods, let you like make no sense. If you don't see, I feel like we can leave it in eating
I think we can even danced dance clapping. Ok, I feel like it's a clear myths, speak. It was done in a church so far starving. Nobody in the church was traumatized for life. It's inadvertent. He didn't mean to trigger morning. If you watching us with your kids, you just heard something.
Rigour, posts, children, warning of the show. So, maybe you so leaving slaughter the trigger worrying violent. There was very that you already saw gruesome like how do you recover and how you continue. Armand, like a thirty minute sermon, knowing the whole time and have already been taken about, like I think I'll just be like you know what we're done for the night
Let's move onto the closing worship zone because you're not gonna, think about anything. You need this. He didn't you would like
Stagger everything he said it really like with emphasis is like page I mean it,
There was no ambiguity whatsoever, it sounded the way you said he said such a thorny, isn't that he knew he was saying what I meant to say sounded like it was intentional, but his embarrassment is clear that it was not intentional
but no save their tents. Guy Tesco, dense
Not every year of the faith is a preacher. Some of them are. Some people are gifted with music, now musical
our sincere voices, a literal instrument, yeah they make a joyful noise into the law or not. All overspending ensures non almost gifted in that way right. But but this guy is,
None so we're gonna enjoy this guy he's got his name on their forget it and his,
rendition of looking for a city.
so, let's service enjoy this and in a minute or two of this I would ever-

How will this has been here? The faith. Thank you here.
Thanks heroes, what's written, Chesterton Diamond
Chestertown the beer, not the b. That is a question I asked myself every morning as I drink from my the b or not the bee mug
Now you too can drink this amazing coffee cup and ask yourself the same question
which is better so hard to decide. In fact, I would say
so they thou on baby. Now these people to enjoy
this mug Jake.
A Chesterton heritage.
Mr Chin has this concept that he goes back to time and again and and specifically mentions it. I think it's the first time it brings about, maybe isn't orthodoxy, that's the mania, the maniac, the matter in this,
call them the madman circle, and so this is actually
where are we reading just from the very beginning, orthodoxy, orthodoxy, so a diamond in and then I
grab some paragraphs from a later on we're just looking this idea of your people. Will
like? Well, I've got my world. You all figured out cause it did.
Purely rational. Everything fits any question to be answered by all logical. You know ways of of reason if it works so
I see everything through that one once your thing make assuming the exact point that most people have that they have won
tiny ones, they look at it through in comparison to circle
some will read were his words first, then it will try to go from their bottom
set up that when he says hand well hand. Well is the looney Bin and asylum in asylum and well asylum. You start this time.
thoroughly. Worldly people never understand even the world, they rely
altogether, on a few cynical maxims of which, which are not true. Once I remember
walking with a prosperous publisher who made a remark which I had often heard before. It is indeed almost a motto of the modern world, yet I had heard it
once too often- and I saw suddenly that there was nothing in it
The publisher set of somebody that men will get on,
he believes in himself
and I remember that, as I lifted my head to listen, my eye caught an omnibus on which was written hand will so. This is
mentioned on crazy together some site vat revenue arriving at the mouth and sign- and I said to him:
Shall I tell you where the men who
where the men are, who believe
most in themselves, for I can tell you
I know of men who believe in themselves more closely than Napoleon or Caesar.
nowhere, flames the fixed star of certainty and success. I can guide you to the throne of the Superman
the men who really believe in themselves are all lunatic asylums. Eleven needs,
walk industry. This position gives that whole build up to them.
He said, mildly, that there were a good many men after all, who believed in themselves and who were not in lunatic asylums. Yes, there are
retorted and you have all men are to know them the drunken per,
from whom you would not take a dreary tragedy. He believed in himself that elderly minister, with an epic from whom you were hiding a backroom, he believed in herself, and you consulted your bit so these people, Trinity, though they were trying to fix the police, looks to him. I have this amazing novel for you, huge epic workers, since I was twelve non, eighty nine. So these are the people that go on american Idol and really this is really the recipient. Elegant words really believed
if you consulted your business experience, instead of your ugly individualistic philosophy,
You will know the believing in himself is one of the commonest signs of Roger Roger Raw
Actors account act believe in themselves and debtors who won't pay
It will be much true to say that a man will certainly fail because he believes in himself complete
of confidence is not merely a sin, complete self confidence as weakness.
Believing utterly in oneself as a hysterical and superstitious believe.
like believing in Joanna South Coat here of the face
and morale yeah. Does? Where learned about our work on my book I looked up. It's fantastic.
she was Korea, crazier, coldest, gammon lesson. We are heroes of the faith on a previous upset,
now people believe in, and we believe that you can give birth. The next crisis orgasm same believing in this great Britain.
the man who has it has hand well written on his face. Is plain, as is as it is written on that omnibus, and to all this
My friend, the publisher, made this very deep and effective reply. Well, if a man
he's not to believe in himself in what is he to believe after a long pause? I replied
I will go home and write a book in answer to that question. This is the book that have written and answer.
It's a great start, your book, just a cage, humor Gilbert part musing on yes, so then he gets in
you and he goes to last others read were diet, were diving ahead in the chapter, but
He goes into. The madman really explains himself. The madmen
Explanation of a thing is always complete and often in a purely rational sent satisfactory or to speak more strictly. The insane exe
Nation, if not conclusive, the least
simple.
This may be observed specially in the two or three communist kinds of madness. If a man
as for instance, that men have a conspiracy against him. You cannot disputed, except by saying that all the men did
They are conspirators, which is exactly what conspirators would do.
That's exactly what he would say. This explanation covers
fact as much as yours or if a man says that he is the rightful king of England
complete answer to say that the existing authorities call him mad for if he were king of England, that might be the wisest thing for the existing authorities to do
her man says he's Jesus Christ is no answer to tell him. The world denies a victory for the world.
Oh Christ.
Nevertheless, he is wrong, but we attempt to traces, air and exact terms. We shall not find it quite so easy, as we had supposed. Perhaps the nearest
In that we can get to expel, perhaps the nearest we can get to expressing. It is to say this
it is mine, moves in a perfect but narrow circle. A small circle is quite
infinite as a large circle, but though it is quite is infinite is not so long.
In the same way, the insane explanation is quite as complete as the same one, but it is not so large a
It is quite as round the world, but it is not the world
such a thing is a narrow you're about. There's that there is such a thing is a narrow universality, theirs.
Two things a small in cramped eternity. You may see
yet in many modern religions.
So the idea that you world, just because your worldview all fits together. It's all goddess logic: it can still be it
Any tiny he says you know it's all circle circle can be a penny. It doesn't make a big. Does the fact that its circular off its together yeah, you do see this with people that are in into conspiracy theories. Wonder that's all.
Or the left his see people that they. If they believe that there is no fact you can give em that that would be the that would contradict in their mind right, as is the answer than serving like multiverse theory. Yet we will get that, like you know, arguing
MR no evidence exists, but look at some of the things that we live in the matrix or something great aliens,
we'll see, I'm slapping you it's real, knowing! Well that's how the matrix is permanent,
there is no way around
so he gives the example of materialism as being in one case of this sum. Take that
take. First, the more obvious case of materialism, as
explanation of the world materialism has a sort of insane simplicity. It is just
the quality of the madman argument. We have at once the sense of covering everything.
And the sense of leaving everything out. Content
It's some able and sincere materialist for ass. For instance, Mister Mc Cape and you having
Actually, this unique sensation. He understand everything
and everything does not seem worth understanding. His cosmos may be complete and every rivet and cock wheel.
But still his cosmus is smaller than our world. Somehow his
like the lucid scheme of the madman, seems unconscious of the alien energies and the large indifference of the earth. It is not thinking of
real things of the earth are fighting. Peoples are proud. Mothers are first love or fear upon the sea, the earth,
is so very large in the cosmos is so very small. The cosmos,
about the smallest all tat, a man can hide his headed
and I didn't put this in there, but I want to read this: he adds to
prices as we have taken the circle as the symbol of reason and madness. We may very well
The cross is the symbol at once of mystery and of health. Buddhism is it. Buddhism is simple
centripetal: the Christianity is
centrifugal it breaks out. The circle is proof,
an infinite in its nature, but it sticks for ever in its size and can never be larger, smaller, but the cry
though it has at its heart a collision, and a contradiction can extend its four.
Arms forever, without altering its shape, because it has a parent.
at its centre can grow
changing. The circle returns upon itself is bound. The cross opens its arm,
to the four winds. It is a sign posts for free travellers boom boom. How I was just failure,
Server, not attend seven out of ten high rating for just written on this one. He loves that,
how'd. You like he wrote a book for he wrote a book on the cross, which is a great fun ridiculous book,
that's a good buddy comedy about an atheist Anna artwork, Hath catholic Highlander. Its play
strange and automobiles here they wanted eve. Martin was a christian and junk anyone, so they wanted an adult the death, but all of all of Christianity
are not after seeing all societies trying to stop them with the various views of their time
certainly at the Tolstoy Guy, just a pacifist,
nothing, I'm the guy who loves violence and wants to see them, kill each other, the phones, it's really toward my parents.
not that long. I've been omitted and take up guy and then he constantly growing area of common causes. All the Gaza gear defend the police. So
that this, when I read this, help me to not immediately be impressed when somebody had a a workers,
I think that before I had thought, oh
Christianity answers all the questions and then other other world views will naturally and notably fine questions that you can answer. That's whether any jesus- and I think that
that's pretty naive. You I was young, but to realize it
not be impressed when a worldview answers. All the questions doesn't mean it's right. It could mean its leaving a bunch of stuff out. One thing in this helps us to
about the kind of Christianity that we want to impart to our kids and that we want to have an hour. Churches is not one that
this narrow like right, a yak as you can turn Christianity internal circle to connect you can you can make it into it?.
You ain't people, some people are under that with something so perhaps predestination than you.
Cause. You're things reloaded yachts, their whole faith is based around one doctrine. Will you anything
people who say that they left Christianity. They grew up in the church, they laughed and it says they weren't. Even answers feels like first of all of those people, I was being truthful bus.
But when the art fuels I what their complaining about the church has had the scene of fundamentalist Baptists thing or whatever, but they had this area based. Everything was
it's perfect circle experience or something it's always one so lying mania
think about Christianity is something that explains everything to something that is as big as the universe. Not this narrow, like
then it's not it's not as job to explain. Everything like that's really Energeia explains the wrong in explaining the wrong word if as a net, but
the ices, damaging realising that that's not,
he's coming thing, that's not a thing to look for in a worker is much the world's too big to continue to answer all your questions,
nice tidy way and not Christianity, is not the orthodox teachings, because that is the core in the center, but its bigger to like the medics. Its
then sets in smoking, cigars and hanging out and like all of these elements of life, you know any tax for them and materialists that that, MRS all of that, because
they have explanations for the chemical reactions about things in only moraine is just firing. These these connections and chemicals
actions- and that explains everything and yeah so Kinnock's,
lean everything in these scientific terms and yet at Missus. Whatever things about boom boom,
so that that is the beginning orthodoxy. If you enjoy that
you could read orthodoxy or you could check out my introductory book to delegate Chesterton. I decide to put together called INS Gateway, it's gonna be on Amazon.
