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.

131: Smashed and Burned (Psalms 71-74)
Book Two of the Book of Psalms ends and Book Three begins.
David is all but silent and it's the turn of the temple musicians known as the Sons of Korah and another writer called Asaph to have their voices heard.
David's son, Solomon, also finds his voice.
However, the quintessential themes remain: God is a refuge and a rock and he is called upon to rescue the writers and their nation from their enemies.
These men believe absolutely that the creator of the universe cares deeply about them and their wellbeing, which is why they cry out to him.
