Wholesome Media, the Super Bowl & Msgr. Shea’s Talk w/ Chris Bartlett | Forte Catholic Podcast Ep 375
Taylor & Chris Bartlett share their favorite wholesome tv shows, play a Super Bowl inspired version of "Read My Lips" & dive into the massively popular talk from Msgr. Shea at the FOCUS Conference.
Chris Bartlett cohosts and shares with Taylor some of the wholesome media he's been watching and Taylor does likewise. They discuss Ted Lasso, Welcome to Wrexham, Everybody Loves Raymond and more borderline family shows.
Then the guys play a long lost Forte game called "Read My Lips." They take turns muting and guessing the Super Bowl themed words that the other is saying and guessing by only reading lips. And of course, they make every word connect with a Catholic concept (many rather loosely lol)
To close the show, they dive into the talk from Msgr. Shea at the FOCUS conference. This talk has swept the nation and seems to really be connecting with people. Chris praises it while Taylor has some mixed feelings about it and questions why the talk worked so well. It's a great conversations that challenges many of both hosts assumptions. We hope you enjoy!

Married Priests, Heaven, Reading Lips & CHVRCH w/Fr. Anthony Sciarappa | Forte Catholic Podcast Ep 281
Taylor has a lot of off-the-wall questions for Fr. Anthony Sciarappa from married priests, to weird Catholic spelling choices to random thoughts on Heaven. It's quite a fun journey as Taylor tries to entrap Fr. Anthony with his questions. They also play a new game that is either the best thing or worse thing we have ever done.
Taylor has a lot of off-the-wall questions for Fr. Anthony Sciarappa. How do celibate priests feel about married priests? Why do Catholics have to be so weird sometimes(ex. misspell normal words)? And finally, Taylor tries to trap Fr. Anthony in a question about Heaven. Fun!
They also introduce a brand new game that you'll either love or hate called "Read my Lips." They take turns explaining basic Catholic terms to each other, but the twist is, the other person has their volume turned all the way down so it's all based on reading the lips of the other person. This game was hilarious to play. We're interested to hear if you love or hate it lol.
Thanks for watching/listening! Y'all rock! :)
