Floods, Droughts, Short Jesus & Glad Trads w/Shaun McAfee & Grassroot Catholic | Forte Catholic Podcast Ep 299

OG cohost Shaun McAfee returns not only to the show but back to the USA! He & Taylor discuss his return to the land of the free, it's rocky start and also how Taylor is probably taller than Jesus! Keith from Grassroot Catholic joins us to show us how to be a trad without being mad.

OG Cohost Shaun McAfee returns for Episode 299! He has moved back to the USA and shares about that transition and a very difficult thing he and his family had to endure. He talks about how he handled it and how he was able to survive this tough time. Taylor dishes out a rare compliment for how much faith he showed through the trials.

Our guest this week is Keith from Grassroot Catholic. He is a Trad that isn't Mad! He is inviting people into the deep traditions of the Church in a kind, loving and convincing way. Taylor asks how we can all be a bit more traditional and what a reverent Mass looks like. Follow him @grassrootcatholic on Instagram.

Shaun rejoins Taylor for the final segment where Taylor shares a very odd realization he had recently: That he is probably taller than Jesus was on Earth. Is he still taller now? Will that make Taylor meeting Jesus in Heaven awkward? Let us know what you think in the comments and on our social media channels! :)

Forte Catholic Podcast Episode 245

Taylor & Liv share stories of the good & bad of summer, how Arby's and the Church are very similar & Taylor reveals one of his biggest pet peeves.

Liv Harrison is in studio for the first time in 16 months! Taylor & her in the same room always brings some comedy and drama lol. They kick off the show by talking about summer: Taylor's recent tubing trip, a Summer activity Liv has never done & the return of summer blockbusters.

Next, Taylor saw a Beyond Meat commercial and Arby's commercial back to back and it made him think about the Church (huh?). In a quickly changing world, the Catholic Church (and Arby's) remain steadfast.

Finally, Taylor reveals one of his biggest pet peeves: people not wanting to improve. He shares stories of how he's seen this play out professionally, spiritually and in coaching. He compliments Liv deeply in the segment and also lashes out at her. Perfect way to end the show. Enjoy!
