Biblical scholar and friend of the pod Gavin returns to The Goods to discuss three animated films telling stories about the Three Wise Men. A crazy, racist 1976 Mexican film, a bananas 2003 Disney-dubbed film, and a more straightforward 2006 Andy Griffith-narrated Nativity short.
Join as Dan, Brian, and Gavin discuss the biblical and historical background for the wise men and Jesus's birth, the unusual contexts for each of the three films, an enumeration of the most insane episodes of the film, and appreciation for the musical design of the 2006 short.
