A short video I made, based on "The Shroud" portion of episode 146.
Correction!: I believe my description of the mandylion may have been a bit off. I described it as usually being depicted with an oval opening for displaying the face. This is more accurately part of a theory that supposes the mandylion may have actually been the shroud folded up with the face visible through an opening. Just trying to keep it real...
Thanks for watching!

Hi Everyone,
As promised here is episode 4 part two: "The Week in Doubt: Shroud of Turin Spectacular!"

I discuss not only the history and scientific testing of the Turin Shroud, but also my own experiences growing up as a Catholic child allured by the relic's enduring mystique. As always thanks for listening...
