The latest Mortification of Spin is up in which we are joined in the Underground Bunker once again by Aimee 'Dueling Banjos' Byrd, one of the founders of the recent Reformed Chick Lit. movement which looks set to become a major cultural force in West Virginia.  Her next book, Real Housewives Wear Denim Jumpers, will soon be available for pre-order, I believe.  Anyway, this time we pick up on the theme of spousal abuse and ask Aimee for her reflections on pastoral responsibilities in this area. 

On another note, we did receive very hostile reactions from numerous Stryper fans regarding the insensitive and hurtful podcast two weeks back, when we began by mocking their heroes. To quote just a few comments from our Inbox: 'Misguided and unhelpful'; 'They built up a straw man, squeezed him into spandex, then kicked him down and stamped on his mullet;' 'Once hirsutely helpful to those with hair, now just a couple of balding internet bullies.'  What can we say?  We do wish to apologise for any offence caused to members of the Reformed Hair Rock Community and we will ask the Puppetmaster to ensure that all satirical references to Stryper are henceforth removed.
