I’ve been contributing since 2006 to Thought for the Day, BBC Radio 4′s religious comment slot in the popular and influential Today Programme. I’ve done about ten a year.

Since April 2011 talks have appeared on the Today website and stay for a month. The audio content of each text is embedded in the posts I have made for each talk since here along with the text.

BBC had an online archive of the text and audio but only the following audio links are still working

Here’s a comment on Thought for the Day and its parodists written a little while ago.

Here are responses to may talks from psychologist, Dorothy Rowe and Will Buckingham on the ThinkBuddha blog
