Religion Media Centre Podcast: Episode 11

Hannah Scott-Joynt, is joined by journalists Rosie Dawson, Amardeep Bassey, and Leo Devine to chew over some of this week’s religious news. Activist Negin Shiraghaei helps the team to understand the Iranian protests about the wearing of the hijab, and writer and journalist Lamorna Ash gives the backstory to her striking long read in the Guardian about two of her friends who have surprisingly turned from non-believing comedians to ordinands in the Church of England. With Hannah and Leo’s close links to local journalism, they also reflect on the talent in local radio following the recent grilling of Liz Truss.


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.
