I really appreciate the balanced, grounded conversations these guys have. Very insightful yet also at times funny, light-hearted, and they certainly don’t take themselves too seriously. Very refreshing and fun to listen to while also being educational. Would love to hear book recommendations from the gang (maybe at the end of each episode)!!!
This podcast is a beautiful dialogue of faith, life, and the challenges of modern times presented with grace, compassion, and understanding. You all have approached some difficult topics with such charity, while remaining firmly rooted in the Church’s teachings. I love the blend of your relationships and personalities. Thank you for sharing the podcast with us all!
I always come away convicted and encouraged in how I can live closer to Christ in a very realistic attainable way. I always learn something new and find more balance in my own perspectives while feeling like I’m having a fun convo with friends.
10/10 great podcast to listen to while cleaning a kitchen.
As a sanguine who enjoys the engaging with the deeper thinkers of the world I love listening in on these conversations. It’s a gift!
