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.

166: Swimming in the Cesspool (Isaiah 24-28)
As the title suggests, Isaiah doesn't pull any punches.
If graphic and repulsive use of bodily fluids as a metaphor get his readers' attention, the prophet is all in.
However, anyone looking for action and adventure may be disappointed; in Isaiah's book, the drama is all in the writing.
If you want a quintessential raging Old Testament prophet so incandescent that he tips into apocalyptic language, look no further.
