Forte Catholic Podcast Episode 146

Shaun McAfee cohosts to force Taylor to share updates to the intro, his thoughts on scary Churches, their failures as parents, the most ridiculous promotion ever, what it actually means to have integrity & how we may have been setting ridiculous standards for ourselves. Our guest is the host of Catholic Sports Radio, Bruce Wawrzyniak.


Everyone loves it when Taylor gets thrown off, and cohost Shaun McAfee delivers! In an episode building towards a conversation on what real integrity is and how we may have been setting ridiculous standards for ourselves, Shaun instead wants to start the show by peeling back the curtain on some updates to the intro Taylor has had to implement.

We also talk about our failures as parents, scary Churches, share the most insane promotion ever and are joined by the host of Catholic Sports Radio, Bruce Wawrzyniak, to talk about...well...Catholicism, sports and radio.

They also discuss the often misunderstood Catholic Social Teaching & share their dueling Forte Five Countdowns of best bible verses to yell in public. Dave Neeson of Catholic Athletes for Christ joins the show to talk about his work with the NFL, providing Sacraments to a high number of Catholics in professional football.

Taylor and Allison Sullivan discuss their recent travel, share stories including her getting tackled in an airport and him being better than her lol. This leads to a conversation on Catholic Social Teaching and how it gets a bad rap.

Our guest this week is Dave Neeson, a youth minister who's side hustle is cooler than anyone else's. He works with Catholic Athletes for Christ, an organization that makes sure every Catholic in the NFL has access to the faith, especially the Sacraments, throughout the season. His stories involving some of our favorite sports heroes being die-hard Catholics are really inspiring.

In the final segment, Taylor and Allison face off in a duel of the Forte Five segment! They countdown their top five bible verses that they would yell in public! There's a point to all this madness....we promise.

Kaitlyn “Tea With Tolkien” Facista rejoins the show with Fr. Anthony and Taylor to break the Catholic internet! Discussions include looking back at crappy situations, video games, things Taylor knows nothing about, the Silmarillion and the swamp pit of social media. Yay!

Fr. Anthony co-hosts as he and Taylor start the show looking back at crappy situations and realizing how they actually helped us. It gives us insight into how we handle these difficult situations.

Then in the second segment, we welcome back(to Fr. Anthony's surprise) Kaitlyn Facista, lovingly known as Tea with Tolkien! With the King and Queen of Catholic Twitter united, our goal is to break the internet, and challenge Matt Fradd's kingdom! We talk the video game versions of Tolkien, uncover how little Taylor actually knows about LOTR and Kaitlyn saves a sinking ship by taking over and showing us how Catholic thought is immersed in the Silmarillion.

In the final segment, college freshmen Blaine Tamez rejoins the show to talk about some of the issues he's been seeing in our social media culture and makes Fr. Anthony do layman things. It's beautiful.

Forte Catholic Podcast Episode 128

Different format for this week’s show. Multiple co-hosts & and in person interview with Allison Sullivan & Liv Harrison…which becomes one of the wildest 30 minutes we’ve ever had.

In this special edition of the show, we have two different co-hosts, and in person interview & only two segments(cuz we weren't stopping that interview. It was priceless)

We start with Shaun McAfee and Taylor talking about why we focus on the negative in situations that are mostly positive. We also have a sneak peek into some of the closest matchups in the ministry madness bracket.

In the next segment, Allison Sullivan and guest Liv Harrison join Taylor in studio for one of the wildest interviews we've done. They laugh, walk through a hilarious conflict and it's implications on how we deal with conflict in day to day situations.
