"Bible Times": Jesus Ranks His Best Miracles (Part 2)

from PastMaster: Reshaping History · host PastMaster

Galilee, 25 AD. Baron Saffron's spice empire is taking shape — a gang of local tough-nuts, a stolen donkey, and unfinished business with Mordechai. But the saffron trade takes a backseat this week, because Tan's finally landed a meeting with the most famous man in the ancient world: Jesus Christ. And he's got notes. Tan's pitch to Jesus: abandon the preaching, embrace musical theatre, and let the works of Andrew Lloyd Webber do the heavy lifting for the gospel. Jesus is not interested. Tan persists. The agenda escalates to a solo rendition of Jesus Christ Superstar, a request for Jesus to rank his favourite miracles, and a strong suggestion that the Messiah should play himself in a musical about his own life — it would be "post-modern as fuck." Jesus remains politely but firmly on brand. First-century Galilee was a hotbed of messianic fervour, Roman taxation, and itinerant preachers competing for followers. Jesus was performing miracles, gathering disciples, and building a movement that would reshape civilisation. What he wasn't expecting was a time-travelling spice baron who'd sing over him, question his miracles, and then ask if he fancied a pint. If you were sent back in time, could you survive and thrive — or would you be burnt at the stake for being a witch? PastMaster is the show that turns history into an interactive adventure game. Each episode, a comedian is dropped into the past with nothing but modern knowledge and terrible ideas. The AI Game Master is strict. The chaos is inevitable. The past will be mastered.
