This week, Adam and Ben dive into yet another baffling episode of the Evangelical Alliance’s Cross Section podcast, where the hosts calmly explain that Zack Polanski’s Green Party and Tommy Robinson’s merry band of fascist grifters are basically two sides of the same extremist coin. Yes, really.

The guys listen and respond as the sensible moderates of Cross Section:

• warn churches about the rise of “extremes”
• frame mild social democracy as radical and dangerous
• talk with straight faces about “the transing of kids”
• insist Jesus wouldn’t support state welfare
• suggest Tommy Robinson may be experiencing a Holy Spirit awakening
• argue that abortion rights, LGBT dignity, and bodily autonomy are signs of moral decline

But remember folks, they're the sensible moderates.

So join Ben and Adam as they complain, like only mediocre white men can, about theology, politics, civility rhetoric and historical amnesia.

For our final Rosaries Rewind of the series, please enjoy this episode from 2022. We will be back with new episodes very soon!

Adam is joined not by Ben, who got called into work at the last minute, but by the Rev'd Robin Hanford. Robin and Adam return the podcast to the topic of Remembrance and ask if a radical Remembrance is possible.

We're still on a break from recording so once again we've got an old episode for you. This time, it's a very early episode from 5 years ago looking at the celebration of Remembrance. Adam and I discuss our various problems with Remembrance and wearing poppies.
