Welcome to the Eric Metaxus show with your host, Eric Mettaxas.

Hey there, folks.

I'm still in the great state of California, still staring at the magnificent Pacific Ocean.

It seems surreal, but they tell me it's not.

They tell me it's an actual ocean.

Today is Thursday, and today both of my producers are indisposed with family issues.

So it's just it's just us chickens.

And I have stuff to share that I'm so excited about.

I got to just talk fast.

And first of all, my guest in this hour is Tom Gilson.

He's written a book about Jesus.

Have you heard of Jesus? It is

astonishing. It's the kind of thing, I think, if you're not a real believer in Jesus,

like this would be an amazing book for you. Speaking of books, my new book is atheism dead. I am doing

tons of media around it. I've just been very busy.

I want to say that I don't know if it was Amazon or Barnes & Noble or both, but they bought

up so many copies of the book that the smaller retailers aren't getting their copies. So if you

haven't yet gotten your copy, that's why.

It's kind of crazy.

We want you to support the smaller retailers.

Let me tell you also, please sign up for the newsletter.

There's stuff that we're communicating with you all the time that I can't do on this program.
