I listen on audio daily! Please continue to post audio. I listen later in the day while doing chores. Love the interaction between Joe & Jake. ♥️
A strong voice of a family man. A convert who does not hold back thank goodness.
I really enjoy listening to “A Catholic Take” with Joe McClane. He provides a great show that brings his listeners a well rounded take on Church news and commentary on the Faith. I highly recommend listening to this podcast.
The goodest, the baddest, and the ugliest. If you’re afraid of learning about the crimes of the Gay Mafia and the Satanists occupying the Church and how they’ll be overcome by Christ’s justice, this isn’t the podcast for you.
Semper Fidelis!!!
