Jam is very proud of fixing a hoover. But how did he manage this given how useless he is with spanners and screwdrivers?! And what does Ed do in an emergency? If that’s stressing you out, don’t worry: we’ve got birdsong to calm you. But also something much much better as James, the brother of Jesus, explains in his letter. We’re looking at James 5:13-18! More japes from our hopeless pirates, and one more chance to hear our brand new song by Dumb Rocks! Sing along here:

We’re reading someone else’s mail! But it’s okay. James, Jesus’s brother, wrote it for Christians all over the world. That’s us! And our listeners are from all over the world. So we’re looking at what it means to belong to God and NOT to the world! This is a hard one. But we’ve also got a story about Hachiko the most loyal dog in the world, and Jam reveals what he could eat every single day! And more from our pirates. Have they deserted? And In Christ from Awesome Cutlery. SING ALONG HERE

In this madcap special episode, Ed and Jam are all about donuts. Would you believe Jam’s favourite donut is a jam donut? Coincidence?! Yes! But donuts are for sharing – like the gospel. Except the ones made of potato. Or the ones with expensive grit on the top. All this, plus live donut eating action – and music from Awesome Cutlery.
