ATC83: Review of Ben-Hur from Focus on the Family Radio Theatre

Although released several years ago, Focus on the Family Radio Theatre's adaptation of Ben-Hur is still one of our favorites and one of the best audio dramas ever produced. Since this story is at the forefront of people's minds right now we figured it was the perfect time to discuss it. We also address some feedback from Michael D., Rachel, Sarah Grace and Elisabeth H. Roy has another newscast and we dive deep into who we voted for in the Finnian versus Whit election. We also manage to bring up fish pneumonia and much more!
