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.

174: The Worm That Will Not Die (Isaiah 64-66)
The doom and gloom continues - this is a book by an Old Testament prophet after all - but there is also light at the end of the tunnel.
Israel will rebound and its people will drink deeply "from her satisfying breasts."
The prophet foresees a future where people are not only forgiven by God, he forgets the things they did wrong.
Better still, he is planning an entirely new heaven and a new earth where people who have never previously been a part of his cosmic plan are welcomed in.
As season finales go, Isaiah's doesn't disappoint.
