Wholly Buyable
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.
Wholly Buyable
30. The Scapegoat (Leviticus 16-19)
Episode 30
Leviticus 16-19
After deep diving into the world of rashes, boils, nocturnal emissions and other seepages, the Bible now outlines the holiest day of the Jewish year, Yom Kippur. It also covers off who a man may or may not take as a sexual partner before rattling through some apparently random rules. However, the big picture here is that God seems to want his people to be the polar opposite of the people already living in Canaan. whether that be food, clothing or marriage choices, where they zig, Israel must zag.
