  • Episode 57: Hasn't The Bible Been Changed?
    Jun 20 2025

    How can you trust this ancient book? Surely it's been passed down from generation to generation and each time people have made a change - like a giant game of Chinese Whispers (Telephone to our US listeners).

    Tom, Matt & Karen are back in the Plough to ask this vital question. The bible may be popular, but hasn't it been changed by people with agendas? Hasn't it collected loads of mistakes over the years? How can you say it comes from God?

    Join them and some weird drinks to uncover some surprising facts.

  • Episode 56: Can I Manifest The Power Of The Universe?
    May 16 2025

    How can I get the life that I want? How can I overcome the problems in my life? Will the Universe help me? How can I get hold of this power? What do I need to do to manifest good things for me and for those I love?

    Manifesting has grown in recent years as a tool to bring positive change to people's lives. Does it work? Is God involved with this? Is it just the same as prayer? Are the Universe and God the same thing?

    Tom, Matt & Karen are back in the pub to explore this fascinating subject. And of course, there are another three weird drinks to be tested.

  • Episode 55: Do Dinosaurs Disprove The Bible?
    Apr 18 2025

    Surely if we believe there were dinosaurs (and who doesn't) this proves that the Bible is wrong? Where are the dinosaurs in the Bible? Did they go on Noah's Ark? Why isn't the T-Rex mentioned in the book of Genesis?

    Joined by some plastic dinosaurs, Tom, Matt & Karen are back in the pub to explore this question. Is it possible to believe in the Bible and in dinosaurs? Or are they mutually exclusive?

    Join them, and some weird drinks for 45 minutes of illuminating and entertaining conversation.

  • Episode 54: How Do We Know If God Is Speaking To Us?
    Mar 21 2025

    "God told me to do it". "I know God led me to do this". It is possible for people to be very convinced that God is speaking to them.

    "How can I hear God's voice?". "Does God speak to people?". "Does God even exist?" It is also possible for people to think that God never speaks to them.

    Tom, Matt & Karen are back in the pub wrestling with this question. They explore if God exists, does God speak to people, if God does speak how does he do it, what happens when people get it wrong, isn't 'hearing from God' open to abuse?

    Join them for a fascinating 40 minutes, along with some of the weirdest drinks we've ever tasted.

  • Episode 53: Do Near Death Experiences Prove God & The Afterlife?
    Feb 14 2025

    As people hover between life and death - what happens? So many who recover report seeing and hearing extraordinary things. They see light, heaven, family, God, beauty - sometimes they experience fear. Do these mean anything? Are they just the working of our brains, or is more going on? What about people who have received information while 'dead' that they couldn't have known?

    Tom, Matt & Karen are back exploring Near Death Experiences. With stories from many who have experienced these - see what you think. As usual, there are some weird drinks as they gather to discuss in the pub.

  • Episode 52: Why Do Christian Leaders Fail?
    Jan 17 2025

    Shouldn't church leaders be an example of honesty, purity and kindness? If they are followers of Jesus - isn't this just a normal expectation? So why do we hear so often of Christian ministers, preachers, pastors, bishops who seem to get it wrong? They say one thing and do another. They look good on the surface, but in secret there is something else going on.
    Tom, Matt & Karen are back in the pub exploring this challenging subject accompanied by a selection of weird drinks.

  • Episode 51: Why Is The World Falling Apart?
    Dec 13 2024

    Surely any sane person can see that things are falling apart. Any optimism from the post-WW2 world and the end of the Cold War has gone – wars in Ukraine, Congo, Gaza, Lebanon, Syria, Sudan – a global pandemic – millions of refugees – chaotic unstable politics in USA, Korea, France, Germany – right-wing nationalism on the rise – humans rights being abused – climate crisis - mental health crisis – addiction to our phones – the obesity epidemic – economic instability & falling living standards.

    Why does is feel that things are falling apart? Is the world getting worse (or better)? What does God say about the state of our planet, society and lives?

    Matt, Tom & Karen are back in the pub wrestling with this. Join them and some weird drinks.

  • Episode 50: Why Doesn’t My Sports Team Win When I Pray?
    Nov 22 2024

    Surely if God is powerful and He answers prayers – then the team with the most people praying for it should win. Is God interested in sport? Does He support the other team? Does God answer prayers for anything? Is there even a God in the first place? Does sport matter?

    Tom, Matt & Karen are exploring this apparently trivial – but ultimately very deep subject. What is God's relationship with the world? Does He get involved with the stuff of human lives, or has he left us to it?

    With some weird drinks – join for another fascinating discussion.
