    An interview with human rights lawyer Clive Stafford Smith. He has dedicated his career to working on death penalty cases in the US and other civil rights issues. Having successfully represented over 300 prisoners on death row and dozens of guantananom bay inmates, he has lived a life dedicated to fighting what he sees as deeply flawed justice systems.

    It was such a privilege interviewing Clive, and something I will always remember.

    An interview with Paula Harriott, Head of Prisoner Engagement at the Prison Reform Trust, and also a former prisoner having served a four year sentence for drug offences from 2004 to 2008, which spurred her on to be involved in prison reform. This was a truly fascinating interview with someone who has reached the depths of despair and adversity, but bounced back and is having a positive impact on the world.

    Sir John Rutter, one of the greatest living composers, joins me to speak about how he reached the pinnacle of choral music. Works of his, such as 'For the Beauty of the Earth' and 'The Lord bless you and keep', among many others, have touched the hearts of millions around the world. Further to this, he has become extremely important for Christmas music, composing and arranging many of the carols we sing today. This is a man who has remained dedicated to his craft for decades, and he will go down in history as one of the greats.

    Here is the accompanying article that I wrote in Palatinate: John Rutter CBE: On being ‘Mr. Christmas’ – Palatinate

He also has a keen interest in promoting the arts, having been the Chairman of Arts Council England. Was such a fun interview.

    An interview with Darrell Bock, one of the most prominent New Testament scholars in the world, from Dallas Theological Seminary. Absolutely loved this conversation, especially as someone figuring out what I think about Christianity - hopefully it will also help listeners! At Dallas Theological Seminary, he is currently executive director of Cultural Engagement at The Hendricks Center, and Senior Research Professor of New Testament studies. He has also served as president of the Evangelical Theological Society, a consulting editor for Christianity Today, and on the board of Wheaton College.
