    Charlie Kirk's Legacy - Preserving Debate in a Polarised Age | Os Guinness, Krish Kandiah, Billy Hallowell

    The shocking death of Charlie Kirk has left a void in the public square. However you felt about his politics or style, he was a figure unafraid to step into hostile spaces, defend his Christian faith, and face opponents head-on. From the Oxford Union to U.S. campuses, Kirk embodied a willingness to disagree openly at a time when many retreat to echo chambers. In this week's show Premier Unbelievable?'s Billy Hallowell is joined by Os Guinness and Krish Kandiah to reflect on Kirk’s legacy, the controversies, and the reckoning his loss demands. How do we preserve free speech without fear? How do we turn down the temperature in our debates? And can we recover the art of disagreeing agreeably in a polarised age?

    Do we have a soul - or are we just bodies and brains? Dr Claire Gilbert vs Harry Amos

    In this live edition of Unbelievable?, Andy Kind hosts a fascinating conversation on the nature of the soul and spiritual experience. Philosopher Harry Amos, a former Christian turned humanist, challenges whether the soul exists at all, pointing to science, consciousness studies, and the limits of dualism. Meanwhile, Dr. Claire Gilbert, writer and ethicist, shares her profound personal journey through faith, ecology, and cancer, drawing inspiration from Julian of Norwich and the deep mysteries of spirit, love, and human worth. From neuroscience and quantum mechanics to prayer, mortality, and whether dogs have souls (!), this discussion wrestles with some of the most profound questions humans can ask.

    Classic: Does Science Point to God? Oxford Prof vs Atheist Philosopher - John Lennox vs Michael Ruse

    In this classic Big Conversation, mathematician and Christian thinker John Lennox sits down with philosopher of science Michael Ruse before a live London audience to ask whether modern science points towards — or away from — God. They trace the roots of science in the Judeo-Christian worldview, debate “scientism,” and spar over miracles (from water into wine to the Resurrection), natural theology versus faith, and the “unreasonable effectiveness” of mathematics. The pair tackle evil and suffering — yes, even hemorrhoids — free will, Auschwitz, and whether hope requires revelation. Audience Q&A presses them on the Big Bang, objective morality, Calvinism, and what counts as . Expect sharp disagreement, surprising agreement, and plenty of wit as Lennox argues for evidence-based faith and Ruse defends a conservative, largely agnostic naturalism. 👉 Support thought-provoking conversations and help keep the show going at www.premierunbelievable.com/geolink/donate💡 🎧 Never miss an episode!

    Should AI be trusted with Moral decisions? | Cambridge & Oxford Philosophers Discuss

    In this second part of our Premier Unbelievable? schools debate with Aylesbury Youth or Christ, host Andy Kind is joined once again by philosophers Dr Amna Whiston (Oxford University) and Dr Alex Carter (Cambridge University) to explore the ethical dilemmas raised by artificial intelligence. What happens when machines are asked to make moral decisions? Can AI ever be truly responsible - or feel pain? What are the risks of outsourcing human judgment to code? And is a "happy dystopia" ruled by AI just around the corner? Together, they unpack issues like the trolley problem, privacy, intellectual property, moral intuition, and the dehumanising effects of the “race to the middle.” This thought-provoking conversation asks not just what AI can do, but what it might undo in human society. 🎧 Subscribe now and join the conversation about the future of ethics in an age of machines. 👉 Support thought-provoking conversations and help keep the show going at www.premierunbelievable.com/geolink/donate💡 🎧 Never miss an episode!

    Classic: From Faith to Scepticism, From Pop Star to Priest: The Search For Meaning Richard Coles and Derren Brown

    Illusionist and writer Derren Brown joins broadcaster and Anglican priest Rev. Richard Coles for a searching conversation on The Big Conversation stage of Unbelievable?. Both men tell strikingly different life stories: Brown, once a youthful Christian, gradually left faith behind as his fascination with the mind, psychology, and scepticism grew. Coles, meanwhile, rose to fame in the 1980s pop group The Communards before an unexpected conversion led him into Christian ministry. In this dialogue they share candid reflections on happiness, suffering, transcendence and the role of stories in shaping our lives. Can Stoic philosophy provide enough meaning without belief in God? Does Christianity uniquely transform suffering into hope? And how do we face death in a culture that has lost its guiding narratives? This classic edition invites listeners to weigh whether life’s deepest questions find their fullest answer with—or without—God.

    Why does a 'Good God' allow Suffering and Evil? Dr Joshua Sijuwade vs Dr Stephen Law

    If God is all-powerful and all-loving, why does so much evil exist? In this edition of Unbelievable?, Christian philosopher Dr. Joshua Sijuwade debates atheist philosopher Dr. Stephen Law on whether the reality of suffering undermines belief in God - or whether there are good reasons a loving God might allow it. From moral evil and natural disasters to the evil God challenge and the limits of human understanding, the discussion dives deep into one of philosophy’s most enduring and emotionally charged questions. 👉 Support thought-provoking conversations and help keep the show going at www.premierunbelievable.com/geolink/donate💡 🎧 Never miss an episode!

    Can AI Create or Feel? Dr Amna Whiston & Dr Alex Carter debate Human vs Artificial Intelligence

    What does it really mean to think, create, or feel? Are we losing our humanity in the age of AI - or discovering it anew? In this live schools debate with Aylesbury Youth For Christ, Premier Unbelievable? host Andy Kind is joined by Dr Amna Whiston (Oxford) and Dr Alex Carter (Cambridge) to explore the limits of artificial intelligence. Together they ask: Can machines ever truly be creative? Can they experience emotion - or are they just mirroring us back to ourselves? Expect a lively, thoughtful and sometimes humorous conversation on philosophy of mind, the uncanny valley, whether AI can be conscious, and what separates humans from code. Along the way, they touch on Jackson Pollock, emotional reasoning, giddiness, and even Gattaca vs Skynet - a must-listen for anyone curious about the future of humanity in a technological world.

    Classic: Steven Pinker: 'Belief in God Is a Hindrance to Progress' vs Nick Spencer

    Humanism vs Christianity: Who Really Shaped the Modern World? In this gripping episode of The Big Conversation for Unbelievable? Harvard psychologist Steven Pinker and bestselling author debates Christian thinker Nick Spencer on whether the Enlightenment values of science, reason, and humanism have made religious belief redundant. Pinker defends the legacy of secular progress, arguing that human flourishing owes more to data and rationalism than divine revelation. Spencer acknowledges the progress but challenges Pinker’s foundations—arguing that modern values like equality and human dignity have deep Christian roots. From the abolition of slavery to the origins of science, this is a searching conversation about what truly underpins human progress. • Subscribe to the Unbelievable? podcast: https://pod.link/267142101 • More shows, free eBook & newsletter: https://premierunbelievable.com • For live events: http://www.unbelievable.live • For online learning: https://www.premierunbelievable.com/training • Support us in the USA: http://www.premierinsight.org/unbelievableshow • Support us in the rest of the world: https://www.premierunbelievable.com/donate
