It snowed in central Texas where Taylor and Allison live and they share how wonderful it was for them and their families! Then they talk about CUSSIN! It's an interesting conversation that probably a bit different than what you heard in youth group. Finally, Taylor shares the "State of the Podcast"

#8

Taylor & Liv are together in studio and kick off the show sharing awesome things God did in their lives during childhood. Kathryn Whitaker joins in the convo as they share foundations of who they are that sustain them even through the toughest of times. Finally, Taylor tries to talk with Liv about how salvation would work in the multiverse but she just gets confused. Enjoy! :)

#7

Fr. Anthony cohosts what is probably our funniest show of the year! We find the show's Life Verse, Taylor has a hot take on virtue signaling and Fr. Anthony messed up in Mass and we have video proof lolol. Enjoy!

#6

Fr. Anthony & Taylor discuss the premise "real men only compliment each other behind their backs." They play an absolutely wild game of Forte/Mezzo/Piano with flaming hot takes from a rocket scientist. Finally, you've heard the Pange Lingua but have no idea what it means. We're gonna change that.

#5

The show starts off with a convo about how sometimes holy people have no idea what's going on. Taylor is fed up with cancel culture and is very disappointed in Fr. Anthony.

#4

Taylor & Fr. Anthony answer what to in regards to lukewarm Christianity, engagements & Nickelback songs.

#3

Taylor has a lot of things to yell about and Fr. Anthony has some answers. They have a blast yelling about things that ultimately don't matter but just show how fun the oddities of Catholicism can be. Edmund Mitchell joins the show to talk about his new project making the catechism more easily approachable so we can dive into the richness of our faith.

#2

Liv cohosts a tremendous episode tackling a wide variety of topics. From her nickname to "daddy God" to memes and the Apocalypse, this episode has something for everyone. Tea with Tolkien and Pints with Jack join us to debate which author is superior!

#1

Taylor flew to Pittsburgh to celebrate Fr. Anthony's 5th anniversary and recorded this episode in the Sciarappa home while they were together. They discuss the Catholic view on gambling, a blast from the past & Taylor's pet peeve of using effeminacy as a derogatory term.

Taylor & Allison tackle the difference between charity & love, growing in friendship & play the new Punishment Fits the Crime game.

Biblical High School Cafeteria w/Fr. Anthony Sciarappa | Ep 265

Hard work now pays off later, deciding which Biblical characters to have lunch with & the awkwardness of inviting people to Church.

Fr. Anthony cohosts a fun show that kicks off with a discussion on how hard work pays off later. We often have to have times where we are putting in extra work in order to relieve our workload and have a better life later. The opposite is also true. If we don't do things we need to now, we will have to deal with the consequences later. He and Taylor chat about managing these seasons.

Next, they have a ton of fun with a meme that asks which biblical character you would choose to sit with in a cafeteria. They give the pros and cons to sitting at each table and ultimately decide who they would sit with. Their answers couldn't be any more different!

Finally, Taylor shares a story where he reflexively suggested a non-denominational Church in town to a couple instead of the Catholic Church. He immediately wondered why he did that, shares the situation with Fr. Anthony and asked what could have done better.

We hope you enjoy this week's show! Have a great week, friends!

Devotions, Seminarians & the Catechism w/Fr. Anthony & Edmund Mitchell | Forte Catholic Podcast Ep 257

Fr. Anthony cohosts a hilarious episode where Taylor comes in with a ton of things to yell about. They kick off with his thoughts on seminarians wearing collars, should seminarians be on social media & is religious life higher than the priesthood?!?! Fr. Anthony has all the answers.

Edmund Mitchell joins the show to share about his new project called Real + True. So many Catholics(including us) have never read or really used the Catechism all that much. This new project makes the Catechism less daunting and much easier to engage with. There is so much depth to our faith, the Catechism has that depth and Real + True brings it to you in a way that's fun and easy to use. Check it out at RealTrue.org.

Taylor has more to yell about with Fr. Anthony. This time he shares how often people's personal devotions can get to a point where they're absurd and mostly just bothering those around them. We try to find a balance between honoring personal piety & not being a distraction to your neighbor. We have a lot of fun examples :)

We hope you enjoyed this episode! If so, please subscribe so you don't miss the next one :)
