Hi Everyone, As promised here is episode 4 part two: "The Week in Doubt: Shroud of Turin Spectacular!" Given the somewhat irreverent title of this week's episode, you may be surprised by my fondness for the shroud. 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...

Hi everyone. I didn't realize how atrocious the audio on the first two episodes was until I listened through headphones. There was a stereo effect on the vocals. I went back in and changed the settings to mono. First up is the Inaugural Episode; for those who missed it the first time, I discuss my beliefs (or lack thereof) and cover some topical issues. Thanks for listening!
