Butcher's Mixed Legacy

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. Please Support! Support us on Patreon (https://www.patreon.com/irreverend) or Buy Me a Coffee (https://www.buymeacoffee.com/irreverend).
