  • In pursuit of Truth

    With a very noisy world Fr. Mike Schmitz makes us slow down a bit with things to ponder in our hearts. Even though he talks really fast! I appreciate Bible in a year and his homilies. Thank you for bringing the light of Jesus to the world.

  • Oh dear, what has happened?

    Always has been an overcut podcast, but it has now devolved into a dime a dozen bloop-bloop bang-bang in your face, bouncing, rapid fire YT mashup.

    Christmas tree for Advent? How about Christmas tree for Christmas? And waiting well for Christmas (and the Christmas tree…)?

    And then destroyed by bloopers. At the end! Serious topic, and then ridiculous bloopers. Why? The topic wasn’t funny. Or was it all just a joke?

    So sad!
