Noah (2014) May 26, 2024

Show notes

There are episodes and then there are EPISODES. Joining us to break down the incredible behind the scenes details of 8,000 years of the making of the Bible, PhD in theology & religion, and holy warrior fighting back the forces of intolerance across the internet every day, Dan McClellan. And we needed Dan to tackle Darren Aranofsky and Russell Crowe’s weird (REALLY weird!) fantasy, sci-fi(?), post apocalyptic(?) biblical movie, Noah. So much fun to have an unparalleled expert - and truly great guy - share his knowledge with us!
