Description

They don't call it the greatest story ever told for no reason.  This is without doubt one of my favourite episodes in the entire Bible.  At incredible personal risk, a teenage girl saves the royal bloodline by hiding her tiny nephew away, Ann Frank-style, under the radar of her psychopathic and homicidal queen.  In doing so, she allows the continuation of David's line which, the Bible tells its readers, ultimately includes Jesus Christ.  Cometh the hour, cometh the woman,  Why she isn't more famous is a whole other question.  Chapters covered: 2 Kings 11-13  Written and produced by Chas Bayfield Music by Michael Auld and Jon Hawkins Music Cover art by Lisa Goff

Advertising Creative Director Chas Bayfield takes you on a road trip through the Bible, leaving one significant item of baggage at home- religion. He tells the story from Genesis to Revelation and explains how this more than any other book has impacted western culture. Wholly Buyable is a podcast for people who might never normally pick up a Bible but who feel they should perhaps know a little more about it than they currently do. After all, the Bible is a book for everyone, not just believers. Listeners will be taken through action sequences worthy of a 21st century TV drama. They will be seduced by erotic poetry and bombarded with hallucinatory visions. Fill your boots with betrayal, brutality, beauty and, believe it or not, comedy.This isn’t your average Bible podcast; no one will be told what to believe but everyone who joins in the journey will hopefully feel that they know the world’s best-selling book a little better.
