Religion Media Centre Podcast: Episode 13

This week, Hannah is back in the chair and is joined by Leo Devine and Amardeep Bassey to discuss the week’s top religious stories. Following on from a discussion on the Koh-i-Noor diamond and its potential contentious role in the coronation, royal expert Catherine Pepinster helps to shed light on the potential inclusivity of the ceremony to be held in May next year.

Azim Ahmed who, as a Muslim representative, took part in the Welsh national service to mark the Queen’s death, speaks about his hopes for a service that properly reflects the nation’s religious diversity. Yahya Birt also joins the podcast to talk about his recent report for the Ayaan Institute on the plight of minority Muslims around the world.


The Religion Media Centre podcast – the only podcast to sit firmly in the space where religion and the media collide. We ease that relationship, strengthen links that already exist, and be part of building new ones through chat, reflection, and comment, with a panel of regular contributors of journalists, broadcasters, writers, comedians, and experts.
