In our debut episode, hosts Junia Joplin and Anne Thériault delve into Mary Magdalene, a figure who has been depicted in many different ways: as a sex worker, as the apostle to the apostles, even as Jesus’ wife. In this episode they'll try to figure out what, if any, of those characterizations are accurate.

Guests: Diana Butler Bass, Elizabeth Schrader Polczer, Nikole Mitchell
