Welcome to Brother. The Masonic Podcast. This podcast is here for everyone - let's answer some questions, pose a few more - and hopefully just have some fun discussing one of the world's oldest, and most talked about organisations!
NTA and Taz catch up after a brief time away to let you know whats been going on and reveal the next season topic of Brother!

To celebrate the beginning of Pride Month 2022, NTA, Taz and Jack spoke to W Bro Mitch Bryan and W Bro James Dalton about their experiences of Freemasonry and how it, and its members, embrace LGBTQ+ brethren.
This promises to be a truly fascinating conversation which we honestly believe every Brother should have a listen to, and for anyone who wants to talk more to Mitch and James about their experiences, or ask them any questions, you can fidn them on Twitter: Mitch @MitchellBryan James @imjamesdalton

In this Brother Extra, we're going International!
Jack is out on his holibobs in Zante, Greece and of course couldn't turn up the opportunity to visit a Lodge whilst overseas! Lucky for us, Jack took his recorder with him and interviewed the Worshipful Master and Secretary of Star of the East Lodge No. 880 a unique 'Not Under a District' Lodge which directly reports to the United Grand Lodge of England in London.

Back of the net! Brother. brings you this screamer of an episode. Sean Whelan has received the call up to play on Team brother, and tell us about the talk he gives on the many connections between football and Freemasonry!
Recorded just after Englands 2-0 victory over Germany in the knockout stages, we thought it was a great time to discuss two of our favourite hobbies combined. It's full of end-to-end stuff. Hear about the creation of Football Lodge and some of its particulars.
So sit back, enjoy your segments of oranges and hear how we got on! Did we keep a clean sheet, or were we caught sleeping?
Thanks again to Sean for being a great guest! You can contact him via Twitter @SeanGWhelan where you can find out when his next talk is, or book him for your own lodge talk! He also has copies of his book available too!

In this episode, we're going back to basics, asking the big questions we wanted to know before we became Freemasons.
If you've EVER thought about becoming a Mason, or have questions about what it's all about, what happens in a Lodge and what you need to do to join, this is the episode for you!
Plus, we also consider renaming the podcast and Wine of the Week is back, albeit slightly different to usual!

We knew we needed to launch Season 3 with a bang, so we only went and scored an interview with Grand Secretary and Chief Executive of the United Grand Lodge of England, The Very Worshipful Dr David Staples?!
In our first recording in-person since the Open House Live event in the summer, the whole team came together at Freemasons' Hall, Great Queen Street to interview the man in charge of the day-to-day running of Freemasonry, and the brains behind the outstanding Enough is Enough campaign.
We hope you'll enjoy listening to this podcast as much as we enjoyed recording it, and welcome you warmly to Brother: Season Three!

We were honoured to be invited to attend the Open House event at Freemasons' Hall this year, hosted by the United Grand Lodge of England.
After being pitched up in a room that very few others get to see, we were joined by a number of big wigs from UGLE, including the Director of Communications & Marketing and chewed the fat over all things Masonry and Great Queens' Street!
A massive thank you to the team at the United Grand Lodge of England for inviting us along, and we hope you enjoy!
