Ben and Adam talk about the importance of Christians organising for a free Palestine and what role they can play in the movement.  Also, we know we're extremely late with this one.  Adam blames his dog... and work.  But mostly the dog.  She's a needy little bitch.

Jonny, Ben and Adam try to work out why 'bothsidesism' seems so prevalent in both the Church and wider society, particularly in coverage of Israel's ongoing genocide of the Palestinian people.  So a nice light topic then!
