Other interesting interviews: the historicity of Jesus of Nazareth with Bart Ehrman and also Thomas Schmidt (using Josephus' Testimonium), the date of Christmas with Philipp Nothaft, 'pagan origins' of Easter with Andrew Henry (Religion for Breakfast channel), Tom Holland. Good weblog posts too.

Also on the Toldinstone channel:

Thanks for the links. I'd seen her before and liked what she had to say, and just subscribed.

As an ADHD nerd I find myself with "so much to see, so little time to do it", and a fair chunk of that time is learning about religion -- a subject I am not at all a fan of. But I feel compelled to better understand it because the world is filled with people who are effectively insane in their worldview and they want to impose that worldview on me.
