Good morning, America, how are ya? I’m Rabbi Dave, joined as always by the ever-caffeinated Friar Rod, and today on What the Frock? we’re opening the dusty file marked Permanent Record. You remember the threat — utter one wrong word in 7th grade and boom, your life is over. But where did that terrifying idea come from? And why has it followed us into adulthood, now repackaged as cancel culture and digital shame?

This week, we trace the roots of the permanent record from Cold War classrooms to theological scrolls to the Wayback Machine. Is there redemption in a world that never forgets? Do God and Google use the same filing system? And why the frock are we not on CNN’s podcast list?

Grab your beverage of choice and get ready to repent, reflect, and maybe rage a little. This is What the Frock?, and yes—this is going on your record.
