The Freethinking Podcasts

Tim Stratton, Josh Klein, Scott Olson

Booking Overview

This is a Christian apologetics and theology interview show focused on philosophy, biblical interpretation, metaphysics, and cultural issues, regularly featuring authors, scholars, and ministry specialists discussing their books or distinctive theological arguments. A PR agency could credibly pitch Christian philosophers, theologians, apologists, biblical scholars, and authors with substantive work in these areas; booking difficulty is medium because guests need clear subject-matter authority but need not be mainstream public figures.
