In this episode of The Backstory on the Shroud of Turin, host Guy R. Powell interviews Dr. Giulio Fanti, one of the leading researchers on the Shroud. Dr. Fanti discusses his work in unraveling the mystery of how the Shroud’s body image was formed.

He explains the concept of “divine photography,” where neutron radiation and a series of complex scientific processes, including electric fields and chemical reactions, may have imprinted the image of Jesus' body onto the cloth.

Dr. Fanti also explores his groundbreaking discovery of beta radioactivity in the Shroud’s bloodstains, challenging the 1988 Carbon-14 dating results.

This discovery has the potential to change the way we view the Shroud’s authenticity, suggesting a much earlier origin possibly from the time of Christ's death.

Join us for an in-depth conversation about the science behind the Shroud and how it may provide physical evidence of the Resurrection of Jesus Christ. This episode will give you a new perspective on one of history’s most famous relics.

In this episode of The Backstory on the Shroud of Turin, Guy Powell speaks with theologian and Shroud scholar Andrew Dalton. Dalton explains how the Shroud became central to his academic and pastoral mission.

The conversation explores Jewish burial customs, Gospel testimony, and forensic details found on the Shroud. Dalton highlights John’s Gospel and the discovery of the collapsed linen cloths at the tomb.

These details challenge explanations of theft or fabrication. Listeners learn why the Resurrection is not merely a return to life. It represents transformation into glory.

The Shroud offers physical evidence consistent with this claim. The episode also explains why Christian faith is grounded in reason. Belief grows from evidence, testimony, and historical coherence. Themes explored here closely align with The Only Witness.

In this episode of The Backstory on the Shroud of Turin, Guy Powell speaks with John Sottosanti, a retired dental surgeon and Shroud researcher. John shares how a scientific interest in the Shroud became a deeply personal encounter with Jesus Christ.

Formerly agnostic, John’s life shifted after extended observation of the blood and wounds on the Shroud. He explains how that experience revealed sacrifice, presence, and purpose.

John also offers professional insight into facial anatomy and linen behavior. He explains why some visual claims require caution and how the Shroud continues to resist artistic explanation.

The discussion blends humility, science, and faith without sensationalism. It echoes themes found in The Only Witness, Guy Powell’s exploration of the Shroud’s historical journey.
