In which Carice and Daniel continue their discussion of great song lyrics with "God" in the title. Some deep conversation ensues, including: what it would mean to "swap places", per Kate Bush's timeless lyric; the tragedy of believing in gods that fail us; and how almighty and potentially dangerous "God" really is— not the deity, but the word and idea itself, depending on who's using it.
