  • Disappointing

    I enjoyed this pod for a while but then the right wing tone started to bother me. To assume the left were responsible for Kirk’s assassination without any trial or full investigation is just making it so simplistic. Satan plays both sides and so while the idea of joining the gaps between Christianity and the culture seems like a good idea in reality it just seems like jumping on the right wing bandwagon. I could never vote left again but I think the right wing is a classic example of how Satan d... more

  • Global mention

    You guys are doing great, but I just want to point out that you sometimes forget that there are people who listen to your show in Africa and Asia. You often say "for our listeners in the US" when referencing listeners outside of the UK. It would be nice if you could mention countries like South Africa or Japan once in a while. I'm in South Africa, and I would really like that. Just a disclaimar though i haven't been listening in a while beacause of technological challeges but im back now!

    Thoroughly enjoyable podcast with lots of banter and Andy’s infamous puns to keep us entertained, but also genuinely Biblical, educational and thought provoking. Always look forward to the next episode.

  • Too much British banter

    Chaps, some very good, relevant and interesting thoughts are expressed here. But in this busy day and age it is very hard to listen to an hour long podcast, especially when a good portion is chatter and banter. Please consider staying on topic because I love what you have to say.
