Season 1: Episode 19
Meet the Historical Pontius Pilate
Date Aired: 03/31/2023
In the second of four Easter episodes, Helen and Dave investigate the historical Pontius Pilate (or “Ponty P” as Helen calls him). What was Pilate’s job in Roman-ruled Judaea? Was Jesus the only controversial messiah figure that Pilate had to contend with? And most importantly, how did Pilate end up buried at the bottom of a lake in Switzerland?
