Religion Media Centre Podcast: Episode 22

Hannah Scott-Joynt is joined by regular co-hosts Rosie Dawson and Leo Devine who reflect on the big events of 2022. They are joined by two journalists with specific expertise to discuss perhaps the two biggest stories of the year. Times columnist and Lib Dem politician, Edward Lucas sheds light on the war in Ukraine. His 2008 publication ‘The New Cold War: Putin’s Russia and the Threat to the West’ saw it all coming, but he takes no delight in being proved right. He confidently predicts that this will be Putin’s last winter before a messy clear-up begins.

Catherine Pepinster is also on board as a royal constitution and coronation expert who looks back at all the events and ceremonies surrounding the Queen’s death, and looks forward to the King’s coronation in 2023. And if all that seems a bit heavy, Leo reminds us of Pablo the singing goat – the unlikely musical star of 2022.


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.
