About this episode

Jonny Woodrow interviews comedy writer and bible teacher James Cary about various topics including comedy, writing, and theology.

This episode was a blast to record for me. James Cary, comedy writer ( Miranda, Bluestone 42 , and radio shows, Think the Unthinkable and Hut 33 ), performer and bible teacher can talk about comedy, writing, theology, philosophy, politics, culture, church history and ecclesiology. I was in a topical sweet shop. We could have gone much longer and I hope we will get the chance to record a follow up. Check out James’ work on substack here (The Situation Room), here (Cary’s Almanac) and here (James’ new comedy substack called The Wycliffe Papers) His website is here where you can find out about his books The Sacred Art of Joking and The Gospel According to a Sitcom Writer and also his 60 minute bible show called God, the Bible and Everything.
