In This Episode

n a special, off-the-news-cycle episode, James Carville sits down with Dr. Bart Ehrman — a retired UNC professor who spent over 40 years teaching the New Testament and early Christianity — to dig into the actual history behind the world’s largest religion. This isn’t a theological debate; Ehrman approaches it strictly as a historian, and Carville, a lifelong Catholic-school kid, brings a lifetime of questions he says he was never given straight answers to.
