John Safran VS God

I'm back! Time Warner Cable Guy actually came today, so I now have internet at home and no one has to die (whew!).

A couple months ago, an old roommate of mine discovered the tv show John Safran VS God on the Sundance Channel. They were re-airing an 8 part television documentary from Australia made in 2004. Throughout the series our hero, John Safran, takes an "irreverent look at world religions and theology in general... both informative and entertaining, without being outright offensive." He's kinda like an Aussie version of Bill Maher mixed with Tom Green.

In the seven minute clip below, John confesses to a priest in Sicily for dirty deeds he committed years earlier while filming for a travel show. I figured most of you have never heard of this series, but it's definitely worth checking out.
