Mustache jumpscare 0:00

Alex is the most british-sounding french guy

I'm glad to see I'm not the only one who felt the immediate urge to comment on his mustache.

I'm not even a Christian but I love hearing Bart's enthusiastic Jesus chat. Good job with the questions you really got him going 😂 great guy.

For a cosmic skeptic, you’re not skeptical enough of that 80s cop mustache! (Thanks for having Bart Ehrman again).

We’ve now entered Alex’s mustache era, folks

What's with the Gomez Addams moustache?

I love how more comments are about his glorious stache than they are about the actual discussion

Never clicked a video so fast. Almost as fast as Judas betrayed Jesus

Alex rockin' the Magnum P.I. stache #iykyk 😂

Commenting at 6.48, will carry on, but just thought how funny it would be if every time we cut back to Alex his hair gets wilder and moustache a bit heavier. 😊 Love this channel and Alex's amazing work.

I love the setting. The apartment, the greenery... absolutely amazing. And the actual content was awesome as well. Episodes with Ehrman are one of the best and the gnostic gospels seem to have a much cooler lore lol

Alex with a stache looks remarkably similar to how I've always pictured Ivan Karamazov. Keep it, sir.

My dude the production on this video is NICE

Sir Oswald Mosley has entered the chat

oh wow. i love this set up. i've recently rewatched bart's interviews so this is great !!!

This should be spicy. Let's see how it went in about 2 hours.

I love listening to Bart Ehrman, but one thing that does not make sense is to first argue that Jesus went to Jerusalem not expecting to be killed and then arguing a minute later that Judas became disillusioned with Jesus because he was talking about being crucified. If Jesus came to Jerusalem not expecting to be killed, why would he talk about being crucified? It seems that Bart Ehrman is dismissing a part of the Bible story only to then use that Bible story to explain Judas' motivation. If you want to argue that Judas was disappointed, what would be more plausible is to say that Jesus went to Jerusalem, not expecting to be arrested and killed. Judas expected that going to Jerusalem meant that the revolution was about to get underway and once he realized Jesus did not intent to start an uprising, Judas was disillusioned and went to the authorities to get Jesus arrested.

just read the Last Temptation(novel) got me interested in Judas. cant wait to listen to this podcast
