“I’ve consistently listened to this podcast every weekend for years - and I’ve been non-religious my whole life.
It’s at its best when the guests are from diverse religious backgrounds and when the topic isn’t obviously religious: it is so interesting to hear how people consider different things...”Read full review »

“Congratulations on curating such a wonderful collection of people to share their stories of neurodiversity. Kudos to James Carleton for the wisdom to skilfully weave the eclectic speakers stories together with an understated restraint, so that their voices remained centre and James’s comments...”Read full review »

“This show is amazing. It’s hilarious and always fascinating. Each episode is completely unique. You’ll learn about religion, ethics, history, and more. The host is cheeky and a tad sardonic; he always has an air of humor while asking exactly the questions you were thinking of while listening....”Read full review »

“There are hardly any media programs left in Australia that cover religious topics with insight. Combining serious examination, personal experience and a sense of fun, God Forbid is a great listen each week.”

“Having been raised in an ethnic community, I am familiar with the phrase- "God Forbid". It is uttered frequently, where I grew up, as a protection against malevolence, so I was intrigued to see how this podcast would make use of the phrase. This is a show that harnesses creativity, using...”Read full review »

“Great to have you back on RN! I have listened to one so far. It's thoughtful, funny, insightful and has the Carleton magic and the mellifluous tones that we miss on breakfast.
The broadcast timing is odd. Designed to encourage podcasting perhaps??”Read full review »
