The only newspaper columnist with a comparable audience from the print era of media history was Walter Winchell, whose daily writing was read, mainly in the Roaring 20s and Great Depression eras, by an estimated 50 million Americans via more than 2,000 newspapers.

Eyebrows were raised earlier this year when Rogan devoted more than three hours to a penetrating conversation with Biblical expert and historian Wes Huff. Rogan and Huff covered the field of issues involved in the question of whether Jesus Christ really was literally resurrected.
Whether you are a follower of Jesus or a skeptic, do yourself a favor, block out three-and-a-half hours of time and watch the entire interview. You can do so right here. The interview sparked a discussion that continues to this day regarding the impact of Huff’s analyses on Rogan’s view of Jesus.
In the meantime, one of the issues in which Rogan was especially interested was how the ancients viewed Jesus during the 33 years He walked on the Earth. Given Huff’s background, that was the perfect question for Rogan to raise with him.
So, both because of its great value regarding that specific issue and as a sort of conveniently shortened introduction to the full Rogan podcast, give a listen to the following 8:49 second cut, courtesy of the Rooted Within channel.
