    I am a Master Mason from in Johnstown. I was ecstatic to know that Masters #5 approaches the process the same as we do. Although you have some different methods. Still the same. I have been listening to the podcast for awhile and I love it. Keep up the excellent work. I look forward to more content.

  • First Rate Podcast !!!

    Excellent subject matter and very professional sounding. I am from Indiana and really enjoy being able to hear about New York Masonry. One if my favorite facets of the craft is how we can all be striving for the same end goal but every jurisdiction does it o’ so subtlety different. Keep up the good work brother. Cheers
