Decolonising the Primates
Church of England revs with a difference Daniel French and Jamie Franklin are back to talk about the biggest issues in church and state. This time:
Is the decline of Christianity linked to the decline of Englishness?
Anglican primates attempt to decolonise the Anglican Communion apparently by giving the Archbishop of Canterbury more power than before. We ask what is the issue behind the issue.
And we check in with Russell Brand to find out how his first week being a Christian has gone.
That and much much more as always.

Based Feminist: Louise Perry
Church of England revs with a difference Thomas Pelham and Jamie Franklin sit down to talk with journalist and author of The Case Against the Sexual Revolution Louise Perry.
In a wide-ranging conversation, Louise shares about her motivations in writing the book, her increasing openness and sympathy toward the Christian outlook on family, motherhood, and sexual relationships, the challenges to contemporary society posed by pornography, the advent of increasingly sophisticated Artificial Intelligence, and low-birth rates. She also talks about the reliance of the secular culture on Christian ideas and why the Church of England is getting it so badly wrong. That and much, much more as always.

Deconstructing Whiteness
Church of England revs with a difference Daniel French and Jamie Franklin sit down to discuss the big talking points in church and state. This time: the Church of England is hiring a Deconstructing Whiteness officer. The role can be yours alongside a salary of 36k. In other CofE news, a billion pounds is going to be raised by the Church Commissioners to repay the descendants of African slaves and the report recommending this also suggests an apology for displacing "traditional African religion". We ask if this is all really an appropriate use of the Church of England's assets and what it reveals about its underlying motivations and theology.
In civic news, Rishi Sunak has given a bizarre speech in which he reveals something of his own personal political theology. Rev Jamie responds.
That and much much more as ever!

Woker Face
Church of England vicars with a difference Daniel French, Thomas Pelham, and Jamie Franklin sit down to talk about the most important issues in church and state. This time, we have a special conversation about the Church of England's most recent General Synod in which the Bishop of Dover said that every parish in the CofE should draw up a "race action plan" and that we should be more woke than we already are. In other news, an amendment to a motion concerning the controversial Living in Love and Faith process claiming that there exist people who do not agree to agreeing to disagree is rejected for somewhat obscure reasons. We ask the important questions: Does racism really exist in the Church of England? If it does, what legitimate means should the Church take to address it? Should vicars and, indeed the Church, be political in nature, or spiritual, or both?
This, and much much more as ever. We hope you enjoy.

Cringe Line
Church of England revs with a difference, Jamie Franklin and Tom Pelham sit down to talk about the most significant happenings in church and state. This time:
- Across the pond, for a look at how American evangelicalism is taking entertainment in church much farther than Canterbury Cathedral.
- In the UK, Sadiq Khan goes all in for woke rebranding of Overground Line.
- And in the Church of England, permission denied to St Nicholas's Church to use the pride flag as an altar frontal.
That, and a bit more as ever. Enjoy!

Canterbury Fails
Church of England revs with a difference Jamie Franklin, Thomas Pelham, and Daniel French get together to review this week's biggest talking points. This time:
- The Canterbury Cathedral rave in the nave causes widespread outrage, plus an interview with the counter-nave, prayer-protest organiser, plus what else is Canterbury Cathedral up to these days?
- The plot thickens at General Synod as bishops are said to have been less than honest with their deliberations over gay blessings.
- parkrun becomes the most recent formerly fun thing to be ruined by transgender ideology.
- And an email from an anonymous source reveals the very disturbing incursion of critical theory into the Church of England's safeguarding training.

Mysterious Mass Conversions
Church of England revs with a difference Tom Pelham, Jamie Franklin, and Daniel French unite once again to talk about the big stories happening in church and state. This time:
- WWIII, conscription, and why is Tucker Carlson interviewing Vladimir Putin?
- The Popular Conservative Conference as Jacob Rees-Mogg and Lewis Goodall go head-to-head.
- The cancer diagnosis of King Charles III.
- Asylum seeker and ostensible Christian convert Abdul Ezidi maims mother and two children in corrosive acid attack, and the church's involvement in facilitating bogus asylum claims.
- Outrage as interim theological advisor to the Living in Love and Faith process is revealed to be an orthodox Christian who believes in his own Church's formularies.
That, a quick-fire Question the Rev, and much more as ever.

Prepare for War!
Church of England vicars with a difference Daniel French, Thomas Pelham and Jamie Franklin sit down to talk about the most pressing matters of church and state. This time:
- The establishment has apparently decided that war with Russia and various other nuclear superpowers is inevitable and that this may include conscription. Have the ruling elites finally completely lost their minds?
- The WEF Conference is back with Lord Cameron talking up war and Ursula von Der Layen saying that countering disinformation is the way to rebuild trust with the unwashed massed.
- Finally, the high-achieving Michaela Community School's headteacher and board of governors have been taken to court because they wouldn't allow Muslim pupils to pray in their secular school.
All that and much much more as always. Enjoy!

Death to Satan - Irreverend Christmas Special!
Church of England vicars with a difference Daniel French and Jamie Franklin sit down for a special festive edition of Irreverend: Faith and Current Affairs. This time:
- Scientists say breathing is bad for the environment. What should we do about it? Fewer humans of course!
- The Doctor Who Goblin song is released and reads more like a Satanic paean to the murder of babies.
- In other Satan news, the diabolical shrine erected in the Iowan state building has been torn down by a zealous Christian military veteran.
- Louise Perry opines that woke Christianity will kill the Church stone dead.
- Lesbian vicars receive first sanctioned blessing in a CofE church whilst the Pope gives approval for gay couples to receive priestly blessings...Or does he?
- We ask the question of whether or not it is possible to have a meaningful Christmas as an atheist and we review an article tracking "The New Theists" - namely, public intellectuals who sympathise with the benefits of Christianity whilst not being Christian believers themselves.
That and much much more as ever!
Thanks you for your support over the course of 2023. We from Irreverend wish you a merry Christmas and a very happy New Year!

Ravers in the Nave
Church of England revs with a difference Daniel French and Jamie Franklin sit down to talk about the most interesting issues in church and state. This time:
- Church of England's Christmas campaign 'Follow the Star' falls flat due to basic typos and theological errors. But what tone could the CofE strike to truly reach the culture?
- Climate Change protestors bravely storm the quire of Chichester Cathedral and interrupt Radio 3 evensong. Is this genuine prophecy or self-important pomposity?
- COP 28 kicks off with 400,000 delegates creating the biggest carbon footprint since the Industrial Revolution began and King Charles making some strange comments about the "indigenous worldview".
- Canterbury Cathedral hosting rave in the nave with obscene lyrics by Eminem is untenable says Gavin Ashenden. His solution? Give the cathedrals back to the Roman Catholic Church!
- And Douglas Murray is indirectly threatened with weird prediction of Islamic gangsters coming to get him.
That and much much more as ever!

AI and the Antichrist
Church of England revs with a difference Daniel French and Jamie Franklin sit down to talk about the most interesting issues in church and state. This time:
- Dr Who takes a turn for the woke.
- AI, UFOs, Demonic Powers and the Antichrist.
- Nigel Farage in I'm a Celeb.
- The connection between transgenderism and Islam.
- Pro- and Anti-Israel marches continuing in London.
- New multi-faith "bus shelter" in Bristol airport.
- Washington National Cathedral charges for entry to Christmas services.
That, a discussion on the relevance of apocalyptic literature in the New Testament, and a Question the Rev on the difference between "stewardship of" and "dominion over" the planet.
