Each of Fr Z’s episodes are short but full of wonderful bits and pieces. Sometimes I re-listen several times because I catch myself meditating on one thing and miss the next 30 seconds or minute that are full of other worthy bones for mental chewing.

I will now be unsubscribing from this podcast because this podcast takes to many teachings from heretics such as Ratzinger. And the producers affiliation with the Novus Ordo sect is disturbing.

If one believes Bergoglio is a legitimate pope...one should also believe that Judas Iscariot is a holy and great Apostle.
Please post descriptions of the music you use so we can get the albums - thanks
Excellent, uplifting, informative, highly recommendable.
Father Z's podcasts are magnificent! Great teachings and reflections accompanied by beautiful music appropriate to the season. In Lent, Fr. Z is doing the Stational churches in Rome with a brief description, as well as a great meditation and prayers. Splendid podcast - I highly recommend it!
Even though the page/feed doesn't seem to update correctly (Fr. Z knows about this) the podcasts show up fairly regularly. It's easy to catch up on the past days in case one is missed.
