This isn’t quite part of the End of Spring Series 2020, but here we are anyway with an unscheduled podcast just for you.
In this episode we hear a prediction from 2016, and a theological theory about why Democrats are bad. But it’s not all about America. There are also Christmas messages from some of Australia’s favourite politicians, plus genuine medical advice, and quite a bit of subdued anger.
