  In this week’s episode of Cross Section, Peter Lynas, Alicia Edmund and Danny Webster sit down to discuss the headlines. They cover Wes Huff’s appearance on the Diary of a CEO podcast. He took 9 months to say yes to doing it and his clear articulation of Christianity is a call to us all! Steven Bartlett is beginning to revaluate his atheism and asking important questions. Meanwhile, Claude AI was asked about Christianity and it’s answer was very interesting!

They also discuss the government’s new social cohesion strategy — ​‘Protecting What Matters’. What happened in Alicia’s meeting with the Faith Minister? What is the new anti-Muslim hatred definition? What will this mean for free speech?
