In 2022 Stig Graham (Anglican) and Jo Mutlow (Humanist) opened up a debate on healthcare chaplaincy through this lively podcast dialogue with each other and invited guests. Informed by the realities of current demographics, the ever-evolving NHS, and their own practice, Jo and Stig question assumptions about who claims and controls the chaplaincy discourse. Although their existential beliefs may be different, Jo and Stig share a common understanding of how to deliver differentiated, person-centred, and compassionate care of the human spirit and both are committed to enriching chaplaincy through inclusive practice.

In 2024 Stig and Jo wound up this podcast after 50 episodes, not because all that needed to be aired had been covered, but because they felt they had reached the end of their podcasting time. It was an amazing journey of conversations and ideas and they hope the series will continue to support the key element of dialogue in inclusive chaplaincy practice.
