Irreverend: Faith and Current Affairs
Are you wondering how a Christian should respond to current events? What are we to think about a world that appears to be going absolutely mad? How are we to discern the signs of the times? In this podcast, featuring The Reverend Thomas Pelham, The Reverend Daniel French, The Reverend Doctor J.A. Franklin and the occasional guest, we attempt to give some answers. Email us at irreverendpod@gmail.com, follow us on Twitter @irreverendpod or on Telegram at https://t.me/irreverendpod.

Church of Englands revs with a difference Daniel French and Jamie Franklin sit down to talk about the big stories in church and state. This time:
- Death of the Iranian President - "The Butcher of Tehran" - provokes surprisingly sentimental response from the West.
- Our take on the new "demonic gore" portrait of King Charles III.
- Gay blessings opponent Bishop Jill Duff inexplicably participates in ordination of gay Welsh bishop.
- Is it possible to return the BBC coverage of anything?
- Russell Brand and Quantum Physics.
That and much, much more as ever.
