In this clip from Buck Denver Asks … What’s in the Bible? Volume 10: Jesus is the Good News! (Matthew, Mark, Luke & John), Phil find out that there are a lot of willing volunteers to tell the story of Jesus.
BUCK DENVER
Good day, world! This is Buck Denver – and it’s time for –
CAPTAIN PETE
Hang on! I got somethin’ to say!
BUCK DENVER
Uh – okay, Cap’n Pete… What is it?
CAPTAIN PETE
We’re tellin’ the story of Jesus, right?
BUCK DENVER
Right. Story of Jesus.
CAPTAIN PETE
The most important story ever, right?
BUCK DENVER
Most important story ever.
CAPTAIN PETE
Right. So I think I should tell it.
BUCK DENVER
What? You?
CAPTAIN PETE
Sure! A pirate’s touch is just right for such an important story! Cut to Phil – visibly uncomfortable.
PHIL
Um – hmm…
CHESTER WHIGGET
Wait a-just a minute!
BUCK DENVER
What? Who? Oh… Chester!
CHESTER WHIGGET
Everyone loved my telling of the story of Esther – it was beautiful and sensitive!
BUCK DENVER
Hmm – it was pretty good…
CHESTER WHIGGET
That’s why I should be the one to tell the story of Jesus.
PHIL
Mmm – I’m not so sure –
CHESTER WHIGGET
I’ve already got my a-Jesus popsicle stick!
PHIL
Ooh… uh… yeah…
CHUCK WAGGIN
Oh, come on!
CHUCK WAGGIN
Don’t you remember how well I told the story of Moses? Set to music?
PHIL
Yeah, that was nice.
CHUCK WAGGIN
Think about it! Jesus and country music! What could be more American?!?
PHIL
Hmm.
BUCK DENVER
What are we going to do, Phil? We have a plethora of eager storytellers.
CAPTAIN PETE
I don’t know what “plethora” means, but if it means “piratey,” you’ve only got one! Me!
CHUCK WAGGIN
I think it means “country style” – and I’m your man!
CHESTER WHIGGET
Everyone knows “plethora” means “with popsicle stick” – just like “con carne” means “with meat!”
PHIL
No, “plethora” means “a lot.” We have a lot of storytellers.
