Podcast details
Technical and general information from the podcast's RSS feed.


On Preach, host Lee Hale sits down with people from all walks of life and all religions. Youâll hear people talk honestly about their doubts and beliefs. How they wrestle with lifeâs big questions. And the way spirituality intersects with their daily struggles and joys.
These days, especially on social media, the word âPreachâ is used as a way to encourage someone to share their story. To validate. To tell them that they deserve to be heard. Thatâs what this show is about. Empowering the people â some of them famous, all of them fascinating â who live in the messy middle of faith. Because weâre all hungry for more frank, fun conversations about how we make sense of life. From PRX and KUER.
