  • Serious but not boring

    Trent covers serious topics but doesn’t take himself too seriously. (No performative cigar smoking to be found here.) I enjoy the bits of humor interspersed in his monologues, especially on Fridays.

  • Uneven

    You always try to be super charitable with pro choicers, Prots, Muslims, gays, etc, but you just slander and dump on traditionalists, integralists, and groypers all day long.

    It’s such a double standard how you’ll talk to anyone except the growing movement of people who agree with you on most things, but you just won’t even listen to them fairly.

    This is why they seem angry and alienated, you intentionally anger and alienate them.

  • Succinct and well-research

    Doesn’t waste your time with rambling like other podcasts and gets right to the point of the topic. Well-researched and really informative. I definitely feel more knowledgeable about the faith.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

#1122 - I Asked a Protestant How to Get to Heaven
Q: Do I need to get baptized to go to heaven?
No, being spiritually baptized is being born again; water baptism is a symbol of that.
#1122 - I Asked a Protestant How to Get to Heaven
Q: Can I just read my Bible and believe in Jesus and never go to church?
Yes, if you trust in him alone, absolutely.
#1122 - I Asked a Protestant How to Get to Heaven
Q: Would you say that the Catholic view is just overly complicated and your view is simple about how to get to heaven?
I think it's really simple. Jesus paid the full price for all of the sins of all those who would believe in him.
#1122 - I Asked a Protestant How to Get to Heaven
Q: So what is the gospel?
The gospel is the good news of God reuniting his kingdom with his creation and bringing salvation to all who would believe.
#1118 - FFAF: Ask Me Anything Returns!
Q: What do you think is the best argument against utilitarianism?
Trent points out that utilitarianism misplaces ultimate value by centering on utility rather than intrinsic human value, resulting in morally repugnant conclusions.
