Podcast is wonderful but volume at least half the time is too low sometimes it's just right. I have to keep boosting up the volume of this podcast and then lowering it to listen to other podcasts.
Fr. Larry is a straight forward, humorous priest. He exudes LOVE for all in his teachings. I am always left with something to think about. He points us continually to love and serve others. God bless you Fr Larry!!
We are so blessed with this podcast!

Anytime we were in the car on a road trip, we’d listen to Fr. Larry Richards at least once. I love you so much! You brought me to Jesus so early :))
God bless you Fr. Larry. You speak my language! Your authentic love for Jesus comes through and goes straight to my heart.
