”BE NOT AFRAID! I will try to speak to you in a way that you will understand, using a human language of your current historical dialect. We first tried the method of just beaming our message directly into your minds, but we did not expect the absolute carnage as so many heads burst like old lightbulbs."

In the middle of all the chaos, a man gets a job offer from God that he can’t refuse. http://www.metatronspeaks.com Content warnings: non graphic mention of head explosion, decapitation, violence.

Our story follows famous biblical narratives through a lens of satire and sci fi. In the highest heaven, there sits a recording angel, running a time-defying podcast. He is also an idiot. And if you are hearing him, this means that you are a prophet of the Lord. No pressure.

BE NOT AFRAID is a fictional podcast, based on holy scriptures and sent through the lens of comedy. Hosted by Enoch – the Metatron, archangel and voice of God. One of a kind, he is the only mortal to have been employed by God and turned into an angel. Now his main job is to report on important and historical events, broadcasting these to mortal prophets across time and space. Come along on his journey as he quickly forgets primitive concepts like the linear progression of time, and tries to discover what it means to be a multidimensional entity made of nightmares and forced hope.
