Lewis and More

If you are addicted to Lewis as I am this is both informative and a “guilty indulgence” of listening to talk from various perspectives about Lewis and all his works. I found episode 565 particularly interesting and it is typical in that it offers not only a thoughtful discussion of Lewis, but also his fellow Inklings such as Tolkien, Williams, and others whom most of us have delved into to some extent. If you love Lewis, this is a podcast for you that is also easy to fit in to your listening schedule as it rarely exceeds 1/2 hour in length.

Restless Pilgrim ,

What do they teach them in these schools?!

As my love for C.S. Lewis has grown, I have gone looking for C.S. Lewis podcasts. All About Jack is probably my favourite, offering interviews with noted authors and scholars on a wide range of topics related to C.S. Lewis. Despite growing up in a Christian home in England, my knowledge of Lewis was pretty much restricted to the Chronicles of Narinia. This podcast has been an education!
