  • A Fun Catholic Podcast

    If Jimmy Akin and Dom had one too many and were ill-prepared you'd get this podcast.

    That's a complement!

    It’s a good break from the cultural waring and dry apologetics that dominates Catholic podcasting.

  • The Podcast I’ve Been Waiting For!!!

    This podcast is so weird in all the best possible ways! The hosts are wonderfully eclectic and both bring such uncommon wisdom and humor to talk about the beauty of the Catholic faith. This is immediately my favorite thing.

Ep: 29 Chant Fight this Feeling
Q: Why is chant so important to recover in Catholic liturgy?
Chant is foundational as the church's oldest musical language, it elevates the sacred text, and its unmetered flow preserves a sense of mystery and universality that newer styles sometimes lack.
EP: 3 The Mason Friction Line
Q: If you could be Pope for one day, what do you do?
I would brutally suppress Cantors like nobody's business.
EP: 3 The Mason Friction Line
Q: What's the difference between the Freemasons and the Shriners? Are they connected?
To be a Shriner, you have to be a master Mason. All Shriners are Masons, but not all Masons are Shriners.
EP: 3 The Mason Friction Line
Q: So TJ., what kind of experience do you have with Freemasonry?
I have absolutely no experience with Freemasonry apart from popular culture.
Ep: 4 Brainsplainin
Q: What are your thoughts on mental illness and culpability?
Mental illness significantly affects culpability and can lessen one's ability to make rational decisions.
