  • Needs Work

    This podcast is an excellent idea but needs a lot of work to rise to its potential. Most importantly, they should really go into more detail about the Saints they cover. Further, production seems sloppy. One recent episode does the Augustine Institute promo read twice in a row. Also, the presenters don’t deliver well, making it not the most pleasant to listen to.

I especially appreciate the opportunity to honor each saint on their feast day and reflect on how their example can lead us closer to Christ. Learning about these holy men and women who have loved and pleased God throughout the a... more

  • ILL Prepared

    Host says the word “like” every third sentence. Her guest professor literally said (despite teaching ancient history) he called another professor about St. Domenic to learn about him on the very day of the podcast. Through out you could tell he did not know about the Saint. Vague answers to specific questions. Low energy tone of voice. Bottom line two people talking but not presenters at all!
