“Misquoting Jesus is by far the best bible-focused podcast available. The fact that Ehrman draws a lot fire from Christians and non-Christians alike speaks volumes. Based on my own reading in the field of historical criticism, he represents the mainstream consensus pretty accurately. I appreciate that Ehrman readily acknowledges when he’s going against the consensus and when he’s speculating beyond the historical evidence. Several other podcast that cover similar territory (such as Biblical Time Machine) do not do this so well and often end up passing off their speculative theories as solid historical data. Megan Lewis is a great host. It’s an interesting dynamic between Lewis and Ehrman: she’s a Christian and he is not. The conversations are always polite and centered in historical research.”
