20 Who's Who In The Zoo

Welcome to the Investigators Guide to the Bible. This episode, we cover the Sanhedrin, Snidely Whiplash and answer the age-old question, “Can we end world hunger with a Vatican yard sale?” We’ll probably throw a couple other stories in, too. I’m Tony. I’m the author, the narrator, chief researcher...I’m also the assistant researcher and I make the coffee. But enough about me. Like and subscribe for new episodes.
