Alright, well this one really was a special treat for me; I've been a fan of Dr. Instone-Brewer since 2011 when he presented at the very first Unbelievable? conference. In this episode we look at Jesus and the NT in the light of Second Temple Judaism and the Rabbinic literature. As Rabbinic and NT scholar, David is well positioned to answer my questions on this front.

In the grand finale of my Pinecreek Doug review sheries, I finish off my reaction video assessing good ole' Dougy's after-show commentary on me and the Shroud of Turin with one of his godless minions named Justin. Buckle up as this one is a "Teddi the Bear-approved" episode (inside joke for those who know Teddi and her Shroud work) whereby I give Doug an edifying and loving dose of his own to put him and many of the ignorant and arrogant Athiests in his audience in their place all the while educating them in the truth with substantive counters. This is a fun-spritied yet polemical approach just as Doug likes to employ himself against christians on his show; I don't mean to offend anyone, but I figure if Dougy can give it, then he can take it!
