Episode Fourteen: Biblical Mythology with Dr. Robert M. Price
On this extra-special 14th episode of 13 O’Clock, Tom and Jenny actually have a rare guest, and what a guest it is! We first discovered Dr. Robert M. Price through his excellent podcast The Bible Geek. Despite being atheists, we’ve long been fascinated with Biblical mythology and the Jesus Myth Theory, and Dr. Price is an unbelievable font of knowledge on both those (and many other) topics. We were honored to get to interview him for an hour about the meanings of some of the stories in the Bible and the unlikelihood of a historical Jesus, and we hope you find the hour as fascinating as we did! It’s a broad topic and we just got to do an overview, but if you want to hear more of Dr. Price, check out The Bible Geek podcast, and then check out his many, many books and his Patreon page. Oh, and he has a show called The Lovecraft Geek too, so check that out as well! We’re hoping to get him back on to talk about Lovecraft too, in the near future.
