Klassic Kolbert: Daily Show Edition – God
Posted by: | Comments
Hello Zoners! Wow, it feels like forever since I’ve done one of these. What’s that? It feels that way because my last post was on Halloween? Wow. I feel so ashamed. Well, I’m back anyway! Well, on Monday, Morgan Freeman was a guest on the show. Among other things, he’s best known for his movie role as God. Therefore, I thought I’d bring to you a This Week in God segment. No, this isn’t just a shameless excuse to watch a TWiG, why would you ask? Enjoy!
