Bible Study With Russell Brand

About this episode

The episode discusses Russell Brand's transformation into a Christian influencer and the influence of tech giants on fashion events like the Met Gala.

Who’s funding Russel Brand’s cringe-inducing Christian reinvention? How has Channel 5 become a powerhouse of small-screen drama? And has fashion's biggest night been turned into an Amazon advert? Disgraced comedian Russel Brand is now a Christian influencer. But which MAGA talking head is behind his new book? How did he embarrass himself on Piers Morgan’s chat show? Tech titans Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez are funding this year’s Met Gala - is this proof that fashion has capitulated to Silicon Valley? And has Anna 'Nuclear' Winter finally been defeated?
