The Beer Christianity podcast has been around for a few years. This website not so much. We’re in the process of adding all previous episodes, but that will take a while because we are all very busy and also very lazy. More (well, all) episodes at our old, ugly Libsyn site (and on all good podcast platforms).
Latest episodes:
Episode 123: Sheeran platter (plus Greenbelt 2026 review)
Ed Sheeran selected Macklemore to support him on the Loop tour knowing full-well, Macklemore’s stance on Palestine. Then he caved to pressure to remove the based and cool rapper from his tour. Some of us think that’s spineless. The rest of us are either zionists or too attached to millennial pop. (We talk about this as well as the recent Greenbelt festival and the next issue of Shibboleth magazine right here.)
Episode 122: Beauty, art and justice with Haejin and Makoto Fujimura
Haejin Fujimura is an advocate for human rights who uses the law to bring justice in this world. Makoto Fujimura is an artist who approaches the ineffable with a blend of tradition and abstract expressionism. They are married and believe that art, beauty and justice have more in common than you might think. They talk to Jonty about resistance, justice and how art can play a role in making the world a better place.
Episode 121: Representative Leigh Finke — being trans in America and politics
Leigh Finke is a Christian lawmaker in the Minnesota House of Representatives. She is also a trans woman. At a time when untold money and political capital is being poured into demonbising and dehumanising trans people, Leigh is doing important work. We talked to her about a lot of it.
Episode 120: Bread and Rosaries — sick freaks, Starmer and the King of the North
Bread and Rosaries is a Christian leftist podcast based in the UK. Yes, there’s another one! And we are delighted to have Adam and Ben from that excellent show on Beer Christianity. They are a great laugh and have great takes, particularly on Keir Starmer’s resignation and the country’s resignation to having more of the same in Andy bloody Burnham.
Episode 119: Siskin Green- Folk, feminism, faith and a new album
Siskin Green is one of our favourite bands. Profound, beautiful music that manages to be playful, righteous and gentle all at once. This is an interview with two members of Siskin Green, and it’s a lot of fun.
Episode 118: NakedPastor speaks - David Hayward on cartoons, politics & faith
David Hayward is a cartoonist and commentator better known as NakedPastor. His work depicts Jesus as a shepherd of rainbow sheep, the Church as hostile to both the sheep and Christ, and the harm done in the name of Christian faith, all while retaining a love for God.
Episode 117: James Schneider - the American empire at home and abroad
James Schneider is a writer, commentator and significant figure on the British left. He talks to Beer Christianity (and Shibboleth magazine) about America, imperialism and how US violence has boomeranged on its population.
