In the second of a three part episode, Ed and Nemo continue their discussion on the theme of Religion vs. Science throughout the history of Dirk Gently by looking at the two TV shows written in the post-Douglas era: The 2010-2012 BBC4 show and it's Pro-Science, almost atheist viewpoint for Dirk, and by contrast the 2016-2017 BBC America/Netflix show, which presents Holism as a religion, and we have fun going through the show's dialogue and replacing the word "Universe" with "God" and seeing how it changes things. Ed also compares Bart Curlish to the crusaders knights of the Middle Ages.

There has been some interesting news but since this was recorded last year (And intended to come out much earlier but the deadline whooshed by and nobody seemed to notice or care, so I figured I'd gotten away with it.) so there is no discussion of the Douglas Adams Explaining the World audiobook coming out somewhere in May-August.
