About this listen

 Hollywood has a new cash cow, and his name is Jesus. As studios scramble for post-COVID relevance, they’ve traded superheroes for the "chosen" ones, grossing hundreds of millions by turning ancient dogmas into bingeable blockbusters. We’re dissecting the "happy gauze" applied to biblical atrocities and the rise of masculine religion vs. feminine spirituality on screen. From Avatar’s blue-tinted woo to the thirst for religious sequels, it’s clear the industry cares less about salvation than the bottom line. It turns out even the Son of God needs a high-budget filter to be marketable.
