  • Being so full of hate isn't christian.

    For someone that spends so much time professing to be disciple of Christ, he spends a lot of of his time and energy bringing down others and belittling non catholic christians. We need each other more than ever but matt's pride and desire to show his intellect gets in the way of showing charity towards others and striving to unite. He is a divider and would do well to study with humility how Christ spoke to and about those who had other beliefs. You can be a bold christian without tearing down o... more

  • PwA has helped my faith

    Pints is a very entertaining and uplifting podcast that I have found to be a much-needed replacement for all the empty entertainment and political podcasts. I am now more mindful of my faith and have been praying more regularly. Thanks, Matt

  • No Intros

    The host expects a lot from his audience. For example, he doesn’t provide any background on whom he is speaking with, or even their name. Great for folks who are inside the circle of what is bringing discussed, but it’s like coming in in the middle if you’re not up to date on all things Catholic.

  • Unfortunately Illogical

    Really tried hard to enjoy this, however so many of the interviews and discussions were theologically immature and illogical. Most of the time it was discouraging parishioners from conducting research and pure Protestant maligning/bashing. This is one of the reasons why a lot of Protestants have the reputation of being much more steeped in theology than lay Catholics.

  • Increasingly Confused and Pseudo-Political

    The frequent mid-sentence interruptions with ads are very annoying. So too is the melodramatic intro now with sampled-in quotes from the episode immediately following. The increasing number of interviews with conservative pundits strays a good deal from what seemed like the initial PWA mission. Something has really been lost in the quality.
