The Take A Pew Podcast Take A Pew Productions

Well, here it is!  The tables are turned on creator, co-host and jingler-in-chief, Ian Wishart.
Soundman Mark takes off his headphones and takes on the co-pilot's seat as he and Simon interrogate Ian on all the usual parts of the show.
Tales of Bournemouth, British Home Stores, Banking and Biblical underwear.  And an apparent in ability to answer a simple question.  
Oh, and if you switch over to our YouTube channel to listen, you'll get to see a surprising pic of a wee Ian in 1969.

Another marvelous guest pops into Take A Pew Towers for more fun- and faith-filled chat.  This time it's creator and long-time host of the brilliant Unbelievable? podcast, Justin Brierley.  We chat about early years in a cloistered Christian community, 20 years at Premier Radio, and new ventures with the Re-Enchanting podcast and new book - The Surprising Re-birth of Belief in God.  Honourable mentions along the way for CS Lewis, cheese & pickle sandwiches, Homer Simpson and the advantages of 24 hour days.  A right old chuckle.

Yes - the pew is back.  Huzzah!  And what a great way to kick off the new season with none other than Paul Kerensa.  Comedian, writer, podcaster, broadcaster, historian. Oh, and Occasional Preacher.  Cue a laughter-laden chat about the world of stand-up, some behind-the-scenes insight into TV comedy, amazing snippets of BBC history, and the all-important debate as to whether prawns can ethically eat prawn cocktail crisps.

Wrapping up Season 3, it's the awesome Dianna Gwilliams.  A story which takes in motor racing in California and engineering sound at the Royal Albert Hall, through to being among the first women to be ordained in the Church of England and going on to become Dean of Guildford.  But what we really want to know is, what is her favourite board game?  Laughs aplenty along the way, of course.
