  • Honestly raunchy sometimes

    I’ve listened to Matt Fradd sporadically over the years and while there is certainly good stuff on here and maybe it’s just a coincidence, but every time I listen he says or alludes to things in a raunchy way. As a man with influence, it adds up. These comments about sex, manliness, women, etc., they just seem like outdated boyish jokes. Or insecurity. I understand he has struggled with pornography and Matt Fradd would be the first to say he is a sinner but as someone who is often giving out adv... more

  • 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.

  • Peter Kwasniewski

    I thought his argument was at times special pleading. His argument for why ancient changes in the liturgy justifiably changed was because “Jesus didn’t hand the disciples the Summa” and because doctrine advances. But then he wants to turn around and argue that changes in the 1950s were arrogant and abandoning tradition. You can’t be consistent and hold both of these. At one point, the traditions he loves were changes to what came before. And a proponent of tradition then could’ve made the same a... more
