Podcast 317 -- "Sometimes You've Got to Stir Up the Water a Bit"

The Professor and the Gambler dive into Season Two of The Chosen, the crowd-funded breakout Christian hit. Amid gathering crowds, bickering apostles, Zealot plots, Sanhedrin politics and a wise-cracking Imperial secret agent, Jesus prepares to launch his ministry with a sermon-as-manifesto. We look at the Christian themes that run through the season, unearth a few Biblical Easter eggs and admire the storytelling risks the producers are pulling off.Also please visit our sponsor Magic Mind at www.magicmind.com/JANnochurch.
