  • 92 - Rejected Saints of the Week
    May 6 2026

    Send us Fan Mail

    Ben and Adam look at a few figures who did some cool stuff, but didn’t quite make it onto the Saint of the Week list, and debate whether this week's Saint of the Week, Jesse Jackson, should be struck off before he's even arrived! They also talk about the difference between liberal identity politics and leftist intersectionality.

  • 91 - Red Clydeside: The Church, the Unions, and a Revolution That Almost Was? (feat. William Gibson)
    Apr 14 2026

    Send us Fan Mail

    This week Bread and Rosaries takes a trip to Scotland to chat with student minister and PhD candidate, William Gibson, about Red Clydeside: the strikes, rent protests, anti-war organising, and radical politics of Glasgow in the early twentieth century. We also look at the Church of Scotland’s uneasy relationship with working-class struggle, social reconstruction, and capitalism itself, including why so much of the church’s witness seemed to drift away from the politics of justice it once claimed to care about. Along the way, Adam reflects on the life and death of anarchist YPJ volunteer, Anna Campbell, and William introduces us to socialist and peace activist Helen Crawfurd for Saint of the Week.

I mean maybe it helps to be Christian, but I hit two out of the three areas (UK Leftie) and I'm nosey enough to be interested in a Christian skew on things! An easy, interesting, enjoyable listen!

Not just for the religious!
