Wise men, nativity art, and Noah's flood

  • Did God flood the entire world or only the region where mankind lived?

The hosts question nativity-scene portrayals, noting the wise men likely arrived a couple of years after the birth, consistent with Herod's decree against children two and younger. They mock 'Anglo-Saxon Jesus' art, discuss the 'Prince of Peace' painting by a child prodigy, and recount a book about a boy who claimed to visit heaven after an emergency appendectomy. A host asks whether God flooded the whole world or just the inhabited region; they conclude the whole world, then riff on Dan's joking theory that Noah had modern technology, ordering gopher-wood shipments online.
