Hey men: ever feel like you’re living two different lives—one in church and another at work or in your struggles? Jeff Joaquin knows exactly what that’s like. Sean and Jeff get into what happens when you stop protecting your reputation and start living with radical honesty. <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://heroicmen.org/brotherhood">Join the Heroic Brotherhood</a>Jeff shares his own journey—alcoholism, workaholism, an abortion at 17, and the fight to bring faith into his business. But here’s the thing: when he finally let go of the image and embraced his weaknesses, God used them to impact thousands. From men’s conferences to social media, he’s helping others step out of shame and into healing. We also get real about the struggles guys don’t like to talk about—pornography, materialism, and the pressure to keep up. And don’t worry, there’s some humor in here too—especially when Jeff gets ready for the freezing north!

We're all Catholic Influencers Now! | John Sablan

Boldness.

Not the kind that stays inside, but the kind that shows up in your life. Because once God does something in you, He wants to do something through you.

That’s where many of us stop.

We face our wounds. We start to change. We get back on track, and then we settle. But Christianity doesn’t end with transformation. That’s where it begins.

In this episode, John and Victor explore what it means to live your faith out loud, not for attention, but for mission:

- Why people stop at personal growth instead of stepping into purpose
- What holy boldness looks like in everyday life
- The difference between being pushy and speaking truth in love
- Why fear and feeling unqualified hold us back
- How your story might be exactly what someone else needs

God didn’t set you free so you could stay comfortable. He set you free so you could help set others free.

So where is He asking you to step out that you’ve been avoiding?

Outward Boldness: Living the Faith in the World

Waiting may be one of the hardest tests of faith. In this final episode of this discussion series, John reflects on what it means to trust God’s timing when prayers feel delayed and hope feels fragile. Drawing from the story of Jairus and the hemorrhaging woman in Mark 5, he explores two desperate situations, two very different timelines, and one Savior who was never late.

If you are in a season where God feels slow, this episode is an invitation to refuse panic, stay close in the waiting, and surrender your timeline. God is not behind. He is preparing you. Do not be afraid. Just have faith.

In God's Timing: Trusting God When He Feels Slow

This week, John welcomes back Dr. Bob Schuchts—Catholic therapist, author, and founder of the John Paul II Healing Center—for an in-depth conversation about what it means to truly trust in the Father’s provision.

Self-reliance can creep into our lives in subtle ways, and fear and control often mask as responsibility. Listen in as Dr. Bob shares personal stories and insights from his new book Trusting Our Father’s Provision, which demonstrate how real freedom begins when we let go and allow God to provide.

If you’ve ever struggled to surrender your finances, your future, or your sense of security to God, the Father sees you. He knows what you need. And He can be trusted.

Aspiring Start-Up Monk Finds LOVE Through an Algorithm | Nathan Pinto | Episode #054

Fr. David Aufiero grew up in a troubled home, and after losing his father and grandmother, he reluctantly met with a local priest to talk through his difficulties. That one conversation led him to become the man he is today.

Fr. David knows well the struggles that men face and that the only way to overcome them is to bring the things we hide in the dark into the light. But it’s hard for men to open up and be vulnerable. How do you even begin to reach a whole parish?

That's when he came across Just a Guy in The Pew. We were able to provide him with the tools and resources to get started, and even go in person to his parish to help launch this group for men. Now, more than a year later, Fr. David testifies to the positive effects that come from creating a space for men to support and challenge each other to grow in holiness.

Join John and Fr. David this week as they talk about the fruits and transformations they have seen firsthand from developing strong men’s groups.

Do Men's Groups Really Work? with Fr. David Aufiero

We are in the midst of a series about True Transformation, and we kicked it all off last week talking about fasting. While fasting is one of the great gifts of the Church that can help us to elicit change, it's never going to reach its potential unless it is yoked with a solid prayer life. They are two sides of the same coin. Whenever you see fasting in the scriptures, prayer is not far behind. One allows the other to bear lasting fruit.
The problem for so many of us, though, is that we don't have a meaningful prayer life. Sure, we go to church and we check the boxes, praying while at Mass or before meals, but so many of us just haven't made establishing and growing our prayer life a regular priority. It's just the truth. If we want to become the men that God calls us to be, then we have to build an intimate relationship with Christ through prayer. Listen in this week as John shares about the importance of building a powerful life of prayer and the effect it can have on sustaining lasting change.

True Transformation: Growing in Your Prayer Life

A Fortune 250 company's Salesman of the Year. Devoted husband. Faithful Catholic father and a 17-year addiction no one knew about, including his wife. John Edwards spent nearly two decades living two lives at once. He closed sales by day, chased down his dealer by afternoon, and kept the mask on at home so well that no one knew. It held together right up until the morning he sat in a jail cell on Good Friday with nothing left to control.

This is the story of how a man hits the absolute bottom and finds out it was never the end of his story. Today, John Heinen and Devin Schadt sit down with John to talk about what actually drives addiction, why isolation is the devil's first move on a man, and how the wound of "am I enough" sends so many men looking for affirmation in all the wrong places.

John Edwards is the founder of Pew Ministries and host of the Just a Guy in the Pew podcast.

Cocaine Addict Becomes On Fire Catholic

Men are facing many problems: 80% of suicides in this country are men, 1 in 5 struggle with severe loneliness, marriage rates for men 35 and older have dropped from 90% to under 60% — and the list goes on.
We can feel it, but we struggle to name what is really causing all of this. You cannot beat an enemy you cannot name. So in this episode, we name four of them.
Today we explore the answers to these questions — and how to avoid the answers the world wants to give you. We get into four specific threats and four very concrete responses, what it actually means for a man to consecrate himself to our Blessed Mother, and why spending time with the Love of the universe changes everything.

The 4 Greatest Threats Facing Men in 2026

Every father eventually faces a moment when his child pulls away. The distance grows, the relationship hardens, and most men respond in one of three ways. In this episode, John Heinen and Devin Schadt use the parable of the Prodigal Son to diagnose what's really happening beneath the surface: why rebellion cuts so deeply into a man's sense of worth, and what the wounds underneath his reactions are actually telling him.
 
But this conversation doesn't stay in the failings we have, it moves toward the father who ran. John and Devin unpack what it looks like to stop protecting your ego and start pursuing your child, how to separate your hurt from their harm, and why asking for forgiveness is one of the most powerful things a father can do.

<div></div>
<div>

There’s a common thread among thousands of formerly sinful people we now call Saints.

They had a relationship with God.

Which then inspired them to ‘set the world on fire’ as Catherine of Sienna put it.

But, more specifically, it meant they put in the time.

They sat with the Lord. Spoke with Him. Listened to Him.

Daily.

They unveiled their hearts and wounds and problems to Him.

They offered him thanks and gratitude.

They left their sufferings with Him on the altar.

They begged for His help.

My question to you: are you putting in the time?

I’m not talking about time to just talk at Him or sit in church making a mental grocery list. I’m talking about time to build a consistent, honest relationship. Time to speak, and time to listen.

Whether you want to pray a daily holy hour or hit up adoration once a week, I have a guide here from the makers of Exodus 90 specifically about praying a Holy Hour.

Inside, you’ll find a simple breakdown that shows you how to structure your time with the Lord.

Knowledge and Philosophy with Pat Flynn

The word "headship" has become so loaded that most men either weaponize it or abandon it entirely. In this episode, John Heinen and Devin Schadt cut through the cultural noise to recover what male leadership actually means, not as domination or control, but as a divine paradigm rooted in the very nature of God and modeled from the beginning in Adam, St. Joseph, and Christ Himself. 

Why do men of goodwill still feel confused about their role? This is Satan's playbook and plan of attack. What follows is a frank, theologically grounded unpacking of what Devin calls "charitable authority", the kind of leadership that doesn't demand compliance but authors the story of a family's glory by pouring itself out. The three P's of the leader of the family are examined not as a management framework but as a way of understanding the ransom a man pays so that his wife and children can be free.

The Leadership Lie Destroying Families

Men today are often lost and quietly confused. Some know they should strive for more, yet feel strangely unmoved to pursue it. Others are driven but stuck, spinning their wheels, repeating the same habits and even the same sins, wondering why nothing ever changes. Still others feel unambitious, listless, and disengaged, moving from obligation to obligation without a clear sense of direction. In this episode, John Heinen and Devin Schadt name a reality they see everywhere: men who are not evil or careless, but internally stalled, unsure why they never seem to get ahead. 
Drawing on the work of Dallas Willard and their own experience walking with men, John and Devin unpack a simple but necessary framework for real change: Vision, Intention, and Means. They explore why some men burn with misdirected ambition while others drift without desire, how both stem from the same interior problem, and why a man’s belief in heaven, whether real or merely theoretical, shapes how he lives today. 🟢 Join over a 1000 men inside of Catholic Gentleman+ and get 33 sessions of exclusive formation, daily saint quotes, dozens of books, and a lot more: https://catholicgentlemanplus.com 👉 Get Devin Schadt’s book The Rule: https://sophiainstitute.com/product/the-rule/ COUPON CODE for 20% Off: Gentleman20 Video Producer - Pietro Damasceno

No. 1 Reason Men Struggle to Get Ahead

Most husbands love their wives and are trying to do their best, yet many still make hidden mistakes that quietly convince her she isn’t loved. These aren’t failures of bad men, but blind spots of good men who don’t realize how their actions (or inactions) land.
In this episode, John Heinen and Devin Schadt expose the unseen ways husbands lose their wives’ hearts and reveal a path toward lasting love and trust. With Scripture, Catholic wisdom, and real experience, they challenge men to grow into the husbands they are called to be. If you’ve ever wondered why your wife doesn’t always feel cherished, even when you’re trying, this conversation is for you.

4 Things She Notices But You Don’t

What do you do when every conversation with your wife seems to go sideways, even when you're trying to do the right thing? John Heinen and Devin Schadt sit down to expose the hidden habits that slowly destroy communication within marriages. With spiritual clarity and lived experience, they unpack how small patterns, like avoidance, assumptions, or rushed “fixes/hacks", can consistently unravel trust between husband and wife.
Instead of playing defense, this episode shows men 5 ways to take responsibility for the tone, clarity, and direction of the most important conversations in their home. We discuss how resentment breeds in the silent darkness of unmet needs. Because a Catholic husband doesn’t just talk, he leads. And that starts with the next conversation.

4 Hidden Ways to Win Her Heart Every Time

What if the most important spiritual formation in your child’s life isn’t happening at church—but at your dinner table? Today, John Heinen and Devin Schadt discuss how family dinner has quietly lost its soul—and how fathers must bring it back, not just as a routine, but as a call and obligation. The culture has shaped the dinner table into what we commonly see today on TV. It is failing at its core mission to be a cornerstone of a thriving family.
This isn’t about Pinterest-perfect meals or polite conversation. It’s about forming identity, memory, and virtue in the chaos of real life. John and Devin share how their own families bring structure and meaning to mealtime—from the nightly “Good Thing, Difficult Thing, Random Thing” ritual to coaching kids through cleanup as a form of love and responsibility.

Joe Hart CEO: This is How to Take Command

John Heinen, Devin Schadt, and Sam Guzman explore the nature of marriage in our fast-paced hook-up culture and examine why some men (and women) argue that men should avoid marriage. With declining marriage rates and persistently high divorce rates, it's clear that marriage is challenging, leading millions to opt out entirely. We discuss 5 reasons why marriage is difficult for men and why some argue we should abandon this supposedly outdated social construct. But is there truth to these statements? The discussion reveals how these five reasons fall short in helping men live their best lives and uncovers the enduring value of marriage.We also get to answer a question from a listener about how to pray and improve his life after a devastating divorce.✅ Send us questions that we can answer on the show to podcast@catholicgentleman.com.Devin's YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@DevinSchadt🔴 Get this and watch the entire 1h 32mins of episode 177 here - https://catholicgentlemanplus.com🔴 NEW SESSION ON FINANCES NOW AVAILABLE.

5 Reasons Men Should NOT Get Married

"All of humanity's problems stem from man's inability to sit quietly in a room", stated Pascal, and this is the issue we tackle today. Prayer is a challenge for our modern minds, and the idea of growing in prayer, allowing prayer to transform us, as well as be our life support in every struggle, suffering, and tough decision in life is even more difficult. Today we give a road map for prayer, one that can allow you to commit to, expand from, and stick with at all times.🔴 🔴 In the extended edition of the episode we answer a listener's question on how to truly live sacrificial love as a friend.

3 Sure Signs That the Devil Owns You

Today, John, Devin, and Sam are discussing something that will get you out of the vicious cycle that sin places upon us.

Confession is Not Enough?

Today John, Sam, and Devin explore various dimensions of anger as it arises in the hearts, minds, and actions of men. Have you noticed that anger is everywhere today? We discuss why we experience anger, when it becomes a sin, or when it is just. Anger, rightly understood, can be a positive force in our lives, but it can easily become a downward spiral that creates a toxic living situation for ourselves and those we love. Moreover, we equip you with strategies to control your own anger, use it rightly, and help you to maintain virtue throughout these frequent situations.QUESTION OF THE WEEK: Each week we are going to answer one of your questions during the podcast.

Best Anger Management Advice

Recognizing the disorder within our culture is the initial step toward rectifying the missteps, often subtle, within our individual lives. Today we discuss how the world is playing this out on a grand scale which culminates in seeing things and even people simply as a means to our own personal ends. In light of this, Dr. John Cuddeback engages with us to assert that we must first identify and be aware of this limited and disordered mindset to begin to re-order and improve our lives and those around us. However, it is not enough to speak of things in the abstract or philosophical sense, we bring this knowledge into the fabric of our daily lives and offer a number of actionable methods through which we can start living out our best life.Life Craft - https://life-craft.orgInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/lifecraft_johncuddeback/Youtube - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC_k-11w5x6ivEem1z4eyOXwBook - True Friendship - https://ignatius.com/true-friendship-tfp🔴 🔴 Help Support Our Need for Professional Studio Equipment and get 3 Months of Free Access to CG+ - https://catholicgentleman.com/support🔴 Catholic Gentleman+ is Now Live - https://catholicgentlemanplus.com Learn more about your ad choices.

Fixing the Disorder in Our Lives

In today's episode, Sam and John discuss how our lives are marked by affluence, abundance, excess, and convenience and how this presents a very unique challenge to fasting, but even more so, a challenge to feasting. In one sense, feasting has a higher place in the Church than fasting, yet we very often never discuss this. How do we feast correctly? What are the practices we need to truly experience feasting so as to live more abundantly? We unpack all of this today.🔴 Catholic Gentleman+ is Now Live - https://catholicgentlemanplus.comJoin the movement of The Catholic Gentleman by supporting us and getting incredible sessions to help you strategically become a better man - https://catholicgentlemanplus.com Learn more about your ad choices.

Why You Fail at Lent and How to Fix it

It has been used for centuries to elevate and to glorify the Mass, memorize Scripture, and harnessed as a weapon against Satan.

He earned a decent living as a middle manager in retail yet this career left me feeling wholly unfulfilled. Leszek knew that he wanted to create something that would last. He was used to getting dirty and working with his hands – so he was thrilled to learn that Hereford College of Arts ran a blacksmithing course. The next thing he knew, he quit his job and started training.Since then he has found his passion in producing a series of superb artisan tools and knives, using age-old skills to produce modern objects of desire. His inspiration comes from the history and the traditional methods, getting to grips with hammers, tongs, and fire. Having these skills has paid off more than a career in retail ever would.

Reid later joined The Leon River Stump Jumpers before creating his own family band, which included his four children. The youngest, Jarrett’s father Roland, went on to lead a touring band in the 90's, and he's still playing venues in Texas today. Jarrett spent his childhood surrounded by guitars and live music, and by age 14 had mastered the guitar by playing along to his father’s cassette tape recordings. He eventually found himself on stage as well, touring as Jarrett Schaub and the Vagabonds for several years throughout Texas. He stepped away in 2012 to focus on his growing family.Jarrett built his first guitar in 2002 in his grandfather's guitar shop. Reid Schaub had been building acoustic guitars and mandolins since 1968, and he was eager to pass his wisdom on to future generations. For many years the Schaub family held weekly sessions in Reid’s guitar shop, with three generations of Schaub men learning and working together under one roof.Website - https://www.schaubhaus.comInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/schaubhaus Learn more about your ad choices.

A Conversation on The Church in Modern Times with Archbishop Cordileone

In this episode of The Catholic Gentleman, Sam and John are joined by Dr. Peter Malinoski to speak about the difference between courage and fearlessness. Peter discusses how a lot of what men experience is not in direct control of the will, and how we must work to become attuned to that in our own lives. If you or anyone in your life struggles with fear, anxiety, or depression, join us.<ul>
<li>Why many of us are just parodies of a true man</li>
<li>The problem with constantly spiritualizing our problems</li>
<li>Why we should avoid white-knuckling emotional difficulties</li>
<li>How to handle fear appropriately</li>
<li>And more...</li>
</ul> Peter Malinoski, Ph.D., is the president and co-founder of Souls and Hearts, and a clinical psychologist for the past 20 years in private practice in Indianapolis. He specializes in resolving problems and healing wounds that bridge the psychological and spiritual realms. A particular emphasis on unconscious psychological factors that thwart one’s capacity to receive love from God, the Blessed Virgin Mary, and other people underlies his work. He also focuses on the unconscious dynamics that get in the way of us loving God and each other. He has been particularly influenced by Carmelite spirituality, especially St. Teresa of Avila, St. Therese of Lisieux, and St. Maximilian Kolbe. With Souls and Hearts, he manages the business operations and contributes to content creation. Peter has been married for 25 years to his beloved wife Pam and has seven children ages 8 to 23.

Dating Before and After Marriage w/ Lisa Cotter

Silas Mahner joins the BeatiDudes for a conversation about Catholic entrepreneurship, vocation, risk, surrender, and what it means to build as a co-creator with God. Silas is the founder of Earth Search, a recruitment consultancy serving clean technology companies, and the creator of Catholic Founders, a podcast and Substack exploring how faith shapes the work of founders and builders. Alongside Paul Kolker, Nick Bezner, and Jeff Schiefelbein, Silas reflects on the deeper purpose of business, the danger of chasing success for its own sake, and the invitation to discern the specific track God has laid out for each person.
Silas shares how growing up in the middle of nowhere Wisconsin, as the oldest of eight in a large Catholic family, shaped his view of work, freedom, and entrepreneurship. Inspired by his father’s cabinet shop, his family’s maple syrup operation, and the rhythms of Catholic life, Silas began to see business as something far more meaningful than profit. For him, entrepreneurship is not only about starting companies. It is about learning to cooperate with God’s creative work, steward resources well, serve others, and stay open to the Holy Spirit’s direction.
The BeatiDudes dig into the tension between planning and surrender, ambition and prudence, and risk and responsibility. Silas talks about the challenge of discerning when God is calling a founder to take a leap and when the more faithful move is to remain steady for the sake of family and responsibility. The conversation also explores failure, resilience, founder dinners, the Catholic community, and how hard moments become mile markers of growth. As usual, the Tiny Table keeps things lively with maple-syrup memories, personality-test chaos, Catholic-business reflections, and just enough nonsense to prove that the Holy Spirit can work through almost anything.

Catholic Founders, Holy Risks | Silas Mahner | Episode #323

Edmundo Reyes joins the BeatiDudes for a rich and energizing conversation that starts with authentic fraternity at the Tiny Table and quickly moves into the deeper story of Edmundo’s life and mission. Edmundo shares his powerful conversion story, describing how a retreat at age 17 changed everything by forcing him to ask a life-altering question: What if all of this is true? 
From that moment on, faith stopped being cultural background noise and became the animating purpose of his life. He reflects on growing up in Mexico, discovering that the Gospel is not just something to study but Someone to believe in, and sensing an early call to communicate the best message the world has ever heard through emerging technology and media. Along the way, he also opens up about marriage, missionary work, fleeing violence in Mexico, and how God’s providence led his family to Michigan, where they found an unexpected place of peace and belonging.
The conversation also explores Edmundo’s remarkable work in digital evangelization, from serving in the Archdiocese of Detroit to founding Digital Continent and helping to launch major initiatives such as Real + True and Seeking Beauty. He walks through the vision behind unlocking the beauty and truth of the Catechism for the modern world, the surprising ways the Vatican affirmed that mission, and why he believes the Church must dream bigger, build with excellence, and create what he calls digital cathedrals for a new era. 
Throughout the episode, Edmundo challenges listeners to stop thinking small, to see calling as an invitation from God rather than a self-made career plan, and to move with confidence when the Lord opens a door. Guest Edmundo Reyes and hosts Paul Kolker, Nick Bezner, and Jeff Schiefelbein deliver an episode full of humor, wisdom, missionary urgency, and hope for what faithful creativity can do in the life of the Church.

Digital Missionaries for a New Age | Edmundo Reyes | Episode #311

In this powerful Bonus episode of The BeatiDudes, Andrés Villaseñor Urrea returns to the Tiny Table to share a wild and deeply moving story of conversion, pride, surrender, and miraculous healing. What begins as a story about youthful rebellion, heartbreak, and ego turns into an unforgettable account of leaving college behind to join a missionary community in the Andes of Peru. Andrés opens up about woundedness, friendship, the hunger to be known, and the humbling spiritual formation that came not through platform or applause, but through silence, service, a broom, a mop, and the hidden life of obedience.
 
Alongside the BeatiDudes Paul Kolker, Nick Bezner, and Jeff Schiefelbein, Andrés reflects on holiness as becoming whole, on how God prepares us to receive the gifts He already desires to give, and on the profound mercy he encountered during a near-death illness that led to what he describes as a miraculous healing. The conversation lands on a bold challenge for every man listening: stop trying to be somebody else, ask the Lord what He wants from your life, and trust that obedience matters more than visible results. It is a funny, vulnerable, and faith-filled Bonus episode about discovering that God uses humble hands to light the world on fire.

Set the World on Fire | Andrés Villaseñor Urrea | Episode #310

Andrés Villaseñor Urrea joins the BeatiDudes for a powerful, hilarious, and deeply faith-filled conversation about Fearless Masculinity, the apostolate he founded to help men rediscover their identity in Jesus Christ. Andrés shares how a simple encounter with Wild at Heart sparked a calling that eventually became a retreat movement reaching nearly 1,500 men across Mexico, Dallas, and New York City. Along the way, he shares about living in multiple countries, building retreats with spiritual, psychological, and philosophical depth, and learning that true fearlessness is not the absence of fear, but acting with courage in the middle of it. 
This episode also includes one of the more delightfully unpredictable Tiny Table journeys in recent memory, complete with Chili’s confusion, polyglot jokes, and the kind of side quests only the BeatiDudes can deliver. Andrés joins Paul Kolker, Nick Bezner, and Jeff Schiefelbein for a conversation that is equally inspiring, convicting, and laugh-out-loud funny. The heart of this episode is Andrés’ radical witness to prayer, surrender, and trust in God’s providence. He shares story after story of bringing impossible desires to the Lord and watching doors open in astonishing ways, from launching retreats and planning a major congress in Guadalajara to unexpected encounters involving Christopher West, Jordan Peterson, and high-ranking leaders in the Church. 
What stands out most is not the size of the vision, but the simplicity of the posture: ask the Lord, listen closely, and move when He speaks. The BeatiDudes reflect on how easy it is to live by checklists, calendars, and control, while Andrés offers a striking reminder that God still leads, still speaks, and still calls His sons to boldness. This is an episode that will challenge listeners to pray with greater confidence, trust God more fully, and maybe even stop waiting around for “perfect conditions” before saying yes.

FEARLESS Masculinity | Andrés Villaseñor Urrea | Episode #309

An incredible discussion with Jonathan Roumie, the face of Jesus in The Chosen, alongside Jonathan Reyes and Sean Lynn from Heroic Men. In this powerful event, they dive deep into what it means to lead with faith, courage, and conviction, inspired by the life of Servant of God Father Edward J. Flanagan. Roumie and Reyes connect Father Flanagan's legacy to the challenges men face today. If you’re looking to strengthen your resolve and lead with purpose, this replay is for you. Don’t miss out!

Heart of a Hero

Aaron Frei joins the BeatiDudes for a wide-ranging and unexpectedly joyful conversation that moves from laughter and absurdity straight into beauty, meaning, and the architecture of the soul. What begins with classic BeatiDudes banter quickly settles into a thoughtful reflection on how beauty, especially sacred beauty, draws us toward God, even when we do not yet have the words for it.
Aaron brings insight into the language of architecture, especially Romanesque form, explaining how structure, proportion, and physical space can preach the Gospel without saying a word. The conversation explores why beauty is not ornamental to the faith but essential to it, and how encountering beauty can reorient men who feel lost, distracted, or spiritually stalled back toward something higher.
Along the way, Paul Kolker, Nick Bezner, and Jeff Schiefelbein reflect on how beauty rescues us, how humor keeps us human, and why fraternity matters as we seek to live lives ordered toward eternity.
Key Takeaways and Action Items
• Pay attention to the beauty that already surrounds you and ask what is stirring in your heart
• Notice how physical spaces influence your prayer, attention, and sense of peace
• Use humor as a bridge to deeper conversation rather than a distraction from it
• Invite beauty back into your daily life through music, art, architecture, or silence

Beauty is Essential, Not Ornamental | Aaron Frei | Episode #297

When nationally renowned Catholic music artist Lauren Moore returned to the stage after a harrowing battle for her life and miraculous recovery, she and her husband, Dave, knew it would be a night of celebration, praise, and memorable moments. The theme of the night was set – The Moore We Are. 
The entire evening turned out better than anyone could have predicted, as thousands gathered to join Dave, Lauren, and the Dallas Symphony at the Meyerson Symphony Center for an experience that is best described as the Church alive!
Thanks to The Catholic Music Initiative, The BeatiDudes were brought in to host various friends, new and old, on the Red Carpet, aka, The Red Tiny Carpet Table.
The pre-concert conversations turned into a rollercoaster of humorness and holiness with great guests, including Brian Asmussen, Becca Gerhart, Stephen Spies, Jacob Combo, Mike Kolker (Paul’s Father), and Andrew Gill.

The Moore We Are | BeatiDudes at the Meyerson | Episode #285

Michael Acaldo, a Baton Rouge native and national leader with the Society of St Vincent de Paul, joins Paul Kolker, Nick Bezner, and Jeff Schiefelbein for an incredibly powerful conversation. The conversation opens with Jeff sharing a deeply personal story about attending the funeral of a five-year-old child, the overwhelming grief and unexpected joy he witnessed in a vibrant, faith-filled parish brimming with large families, and the way that experience sent him home with renewed gratitude for his own children. That vulnerable moment sets the tone for an episode that blends Cajun humor, Catholic culture, and a serious call to serve Christ in the poor.
Michael shares about growing up Catholic in Louisiana, where counties are called parishes and even the alligators feel sacramental. He describes powerful Eucharistic processions from the bayou to the streets of New York City. 
The Dudes dig into the heart of the St Vincent de Paul Society as a spiritual movement rather than just a social service agency. Michael traces the story from St Vincent de Paul and Blessed Frédéric Ozanam to modern free pharmacies, mini-loan programs that free people from predatory lending, and 90,000 Vincentians across 4,000 conferences who are hunting souls by seeing Christ in their neighbors in need. 
Along the way, there are puns about the bayou, improv-style commercials, and the beloved Beatitudes game “Blessed Are the Joke Makers.” Yet, the episode keeps circling back to one core truth: holiness looks like concrete acts of charity, done with humility and joy.

Answering the Call to Serve | Michael Acaldo | Episode #281

Wall Street analyst turned musical producer Pierre Ferragu joins Jeff Schiefelbein, Nick Bezner, and Paul Kolker at the tiny table to share the remarkable story behind Bernadette The Musical, a Broadway-level production about Saint Bernadette of Lourdes that is coming to the United States. 
Pierre explains how a French stage show rooted in a deeply Catholic story managed to win over a secular French press, and why the life of a humble peasant girl continues to move hearts across cultures and worldviews. From the challenge of translating nuance and wordplay into English to navigating cultural differences between French abstraction and American love for stories that are clearly grounded in the flesh, Pierre gives an inside look at producing a show that stays faithful to history while speaking powerfully to modern audiences. 
Along the way, the Dudes share the very personal connection Jeff and his family have to Lourdes, unpack Kelsey Grammer’s unexpected role as a producer and champion for the show, and reflect on why live theater can evangelize in ways that streaming content simply cannot. The episode closes with a stunning recording of the song “Why Me,” a cry of humble wonder that resonates with priests, parents, and anyone who has ever asked God why they were chosen for a particular cross or calling.
 
Takeaways
1. The life of Saint Bernadette is universally compelling
2. Translation is more than swapping words
3. Live experiences form hearts in a unique way
4. God uses unlikely people for big missions

Episode Challenge
Pray with your own “Why me?”
Take ten minutes this week to bring your current calling or cross to the Lord. Ask honestly, “Why me” and then sit in silence, allowing God to remind you that He chooses the small, the weak, and the ordinary on purpose. Offer Him your poverty and ask for the courage of Saint Bernadette.

Bernadette the Musical – Why Me? | Pierre Ferragu | Episode #275

The BeatiDudes are back at the Tiny Table with Patrick Thornton from Catholic.Store and Tiny Saints. 
Paul Kolker, Nick Bezner, and Jeff Schiefelbein start the episode with playful banter about names, shirts, and biceps, before Patrick shares a heartfelt family story that changed his life. Not too long ago, Patrick’s oldest son survived a serious car accident, spent weeks recovering, and then stood at his wedding after a last-minute clearance from the doctor. 
The conversation turns to the gift of proximity, since all six Thornton kids now live within fifteen minutes of mom and dad in Irving. Patrick talks about ordinary names that feel wonderfully normal, the joy of grandparent life, and why Texas weather just works. The crew riffs on Tiny Saints as small reminders with a big mission, previews the red tiny table activation for the Catholic Music Initiative concert, and laughs through Catholic dad jokes, Tim Tebow sightings, and a legendary line delivered to Pudge Rodriguez. 
The show is equal parts comedy and consolation, the kind of episode that leaves you grateful for faith, family, and friends who keep showing up.

Close to Home, Close to Heaven | Patrick Thornton | Episode #268

The BeatiDudes continue their conversation with Kurt Klement, a seasoned Catholic leader passionate about evangelization, parish renewal, and servant leadership. If Monday’s episode laid the groundwork for rethinking how we “do church,” this one explores how to live leadership in ministry, the workplace, and family life.
 
Kurt shares his unexpected journey from a self-described “easygoing floater” to a dynamic leader responsible for thousands of teens, volunteers, and parishioners. But more than just a story of rising through the ranks, Kurt opens up about the interior transformation required to lead with impact and how learning to care about others' experience of you is essential to becoming the kind of leader God calls us to be.
 
Through hilarious banter between Paul Kolker, Nick Bezner, Jeff Schiefelbein, and Kurt Klement (yes, there’s a Seraphim facepalm reference), as well as profound spiritual insight and practical examples, this episode delves into what authentic leadership looks like when grounded in humility, curiosity, and intentional accompaniment.
 
Key Takeaways:
•	Why impact matters more than intention in leadership
•	The difference between positional power and influence
•	How Catholic Social Teaching offers a blueprint for modern leadership
•	What it means to empower others as “hero-makers” rather than heroes
•	Why weekly one-on-ones might be the most transformative tool in ministry or business

Don’t Be the Hero, Lead Like Christ | Kurt Klement | Episode #240

What happens when a Catholic dad moves his family to a
homestead and starts learning theology through pigs, fences, and parables? In this laugh-filled episode, the BeatiDudes welcome Jason Craig, author, farmer, and founder of Fraternus, for a deep and humorous exploration of farm life, fatherhood, and the faith lessons that emerge from both.
From cow returns and donkey escapes to the spiritual logic of agrarian living, Jason reflects on how working the land with his children has transformed his family and made space to encounter God in the rhythms of nature. Paul Kolker, Nick Bezner, and Jeff Schiefelbein also share outrageous stories about animal chaos, DIY fence failures, and Jason’s failed attempt to launch a yogurt empire.
And yes, they do try to reenact biblical parables with mixed results.
Highlights:
·        Why suburban life stifles spiritual formation
·        How building a fence beats reading a progress report
·        The theology of milk cows, pigs, and daily labor
·        Parable reenactments gone hilariously wrong
·        The hidden beauty of a farm-based family economy

Raising Saints, Fences, and Pigs | Jason Craig | Episode #244

The BeatiDudes - Paul Kolker, Nick Bezner, and Jeff Schiefelbein - enter sacred territory with Fr. John Paul Kern, a Dominican Friar from New York City. Broadcasting once again from Catholics at the Shore, we dig deep into the heart of identity, the trials of discernment, and the peace that comes only from total surrender to God.Fr. John Paul shares his vocation story, his thoughts on monastic community, and the real cost of saying “yes” to God. It’s a conversation that swings from Notre Dame dorm-room conversions to monastery silence, from struggles with pride to joyful humility. Oh, and Jeff totally forgets what question he was asking (again).Highlights:• “A priest’s job is to get out of the way so the faithful can encounter Christ.”• The danger of identity confusion in today’s world - and how the monastery offers clarity.• Father’s advice for men discerning: “Listen, then move. Stop chasing certainty.”Fr. John Paul’s Wisdom Drop:“The more we receive who we are from God, the less we feel the need to define it for ourselves.”<h2>Our Partners:</h2><a href="https://sockreligious.com/pages/beatidudes">Sock Religious (10% Discount)</a><a href="https://learnmore.solidarityhealthshare.org/beatidudes/?utm_source=podcast&amp;utm_campaign=BeatiDudes&amp;utm_content=why_solidarity">Solidarity HealthShare</a><a href="https://aquinaswealth.com/">Aquinas Wealth Advisors</a><a href="https://www.lucidprivateoffices.com/">Lucid Private Office</a><a href="https://divinecomedyimprov.com/">Divine Comedy</a><a href="https://www.undivided.life/">Undivided Life</a><h2>Follow The BeatiDudes:</h2><a href="https://www.undivided.life/podcasts">BeatiDudes Website</a><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/90739902/admin/">LinkedIn</a><a href="https://www.facebook.com/TheBeatiDudesPodcast">Facebook</a><a href="https://www.instagram.com/beatidudes/">Instagram</a><a href="https://twitter.com/The_BeatiDudes">Twitter</a><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/schiefelbein/">Jeff Schiefelbein on LinkedIn</a>BeatiDudes Theme Song and Music By<a href="https://thepencilbureau.com/">The Pencil Bureau</a> <a href="https://www.davemooremusic.com/">Dave Moore Music</a>

Ever Ancient, Ever New | Fr. John Paul Kern, O.P. | Episode #234

In a great rebound from the contentious Monday appearance of Sam Sorich, The BeatiDudes come back to the Tiny Table for a round of incredible questions and games. Starting with 101 Conversations for Couples (or Co-Hosts), Paul Kolker, Nick Bezner, and Jeff Schiefelbein have a great dialogue with Sam and then play Blessed are the Joke Makers.In addition to directing the new documentary “Things Hidden: The Life and Legacy of René Girard,” Sam was also a director for one of the 8BEATS, an edgy production of films based on the 8 Beatitudes. Born from the Catholic Creatives Summit, 8BEATS gathered Catholic artists to work together on a series of short films. Each film is inspired by one of the Beatitudes. Sam produced Seau De Sang based on “Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God”. You can watch the short films at 8BeatsMovie.com. <h2>Our Partners:</h2><a href="https://sockreligious.com/pages/beatidudes">Sock Religious (10% Discount)</a><a href="https://learnmore.solidarityhealthshare.org/beatidudes/?utm_source=podcast&amp;utm_campaign=BeatiDudes&amp;utm_content=why_solidarity">Solidarity HealthShare</a><a href="https://aquinaswealth.com/">Aquinas Wealth Advisors</a><a href="https://www.corexpeditions.org/upcoming-trips">COR Expeditions - Upcoming Trips</a><a href="https://www.lucidprivateoffices.com/">Lucid Private Office</a><a href="https://divinecomedyimprov.com/">Divine Comedy</a><a href="https://www.undivided.life/">Undivided Life</a><h2>Follow The BeatiDudes:</h2><a href="https://www.undivided.life/podcasts">BeatiDudes Website</a><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/90739902/admin/">LinkedIn</a><a href="https://www.facebook.com/TheBeatiDudesPodcast">Facebook</a><a href="https://www.instagram.com/beatidudes/">Instagram</a><a href="https://twitter.com/The_BeatiDudes">Twitter</a><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/schiefelbein/">Jeff Schiefelbein on LinkedIn</a> BeatiDudes Theme Song and Music By<a href="https://thepencilbureau.com/">The Pencil Bureau</a> <a href="https://www.davemooremusic.com/">Dave Moore Music</a>

Blessed are the Peace Makers | Sam Sorich | Episode #212

Sam Sorich, director of the new documentary “Things Hidden: The Life and Legacy of René Girard,” dives into the deep end with The BeatiDudes to discuss mimetic desire, philosophy, and the pursuit of truth. Sorich’s exploration of René Girard began in college, during a time when he was deconstructing his faith and grappling with whether to embrace Christianity or dismiss it. Driven by his encounters with Girard’s works, Sorich began developing a documentary in 2016, embarking on a cross-country odyssey in his van to interview key figures in the philosopher’s sphere. The film is now available to view on YouTube. Hold your breath for this one, as the guest is met with philosophical debates by Paul Kolker, intrigue and interest by Nick Bezner, and a cage match with Jeff Schiefelbein.

Podcast Drama and Mimetic Desire | Sam Sorich | Episode #211

The 5th Bishop of the Diocese of Tyler and longtime friend of The BeatiDudes, Bishop Greg Kelly, joined the BeatiDudes just weeks before his installation to share his gratitude, joy, and excitement. His focus included a message of timeless wisdom to always find Christ and keep our eyes on Him. Bishop Greg Kelly is a native of Iowa and grew up in Colorado Springs, Colorado. In 1976, he arrived in Dallas. He studied for the priesthood in Holy Trinity Seminary at the University of Dallas in Irving and was ordained to the priesthood in 1982. He served as parochial vicar at All Saints in Dallas, Chaplain at the University of Dallas in Irving, and pastor at St. Gabriel the Archangel Parish in McKinney. He was ordained as auxiliary bishop of Dallas on February 11, 2016, and resided at Holy Trinity Seminary in Irving. In December 2024, Bishop Greg Kelly received word that Pope Francis wanted him to be the Bishop of the Diocese of Tyler, only 100 miles East of Dallas. When he received this news, he responded, “If the Holy Father wants me to do this, then that’s what I’ll do.” Bishop Kelly was installed as the 5th Bishop of the Diocese of Tyler on February 24th, 2025, the 30th anniversary of the diocese's inauguration. There is no better guest to serve as the start of BeatiDudes Season 5 than the 5th Bishop of Tyler. Join Paul Kolker, Nick Bezner, and Jeff Schiefelbein in celebrating this exciting time for the Church and praying for Bishop Kelly’s new flock. <h2>Our Partners:</h2><a href="https://sockreligious.com/pages/beatidudes">Sock Religious (10% Discount)</a><a href="https://learnmore.solidarityhealthshare.org/beatidudes/?utm_source=podcast&amp;utm_campaign=BeatiDudes&amp;utm_content=why_solidarity">Solidarity HealthShare</a><a href="https://aquinaswealth.com/">Aquinas Wealth Advisors</a><a href="https://onfiremedia.com/beatidudes">On Fire Media</a><a href="https://www.lucidprivateoffices.com/">Lucid Private Office</a><a href="https://one-visit-away.teachable.com/p/major-gift-millions/">Kevin's Course - Major Gift Millions</a><a href="https://ustmaxstudios.com/network/">MAX Studios</a><a href="https://divinecomedyimprov.com/">Divine Comedy</a><a href="https://www.undivided.life/">Undivided Life</a><h2>Follow The BeatiDudes:</h2><a href="https://www.undivided.life/podcasts">BeatiDudes Website</a><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/90739902/admin/">LinkedIn</a><a href="https://www.facebook.com/TheBeatiDudesPodcast">Facebook</a><a href="https://www.instagram.com/beatidudes/">Instagram</a><a href="https://twitter.com/The_BeatiDudes">Twitter</a><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/schiefelbein/">Jeff Schiefelbein on LinkedIn</a>BeatiDudes Theme Song and Music By<a href="https://thepencilbureau.com/">The Pencil Bureau</a> <a href="https://www.davemooremusic.com/">Dave Moore Music</a>

Exodus Advent Challenge | The BeatiDudes | Episode #3 of 5

Hundreds of thousands of pilgrims walk the Camino de Santiago each year for spiritual formation, healing, personal growth, adventure, and cultural exploration. The Camino de Santiago, also known as the “Way of St. James,” has many routes (Francis, Portugal, Primitivo, and del Norte, to name a few) that all lead to the same place: the Cathedral of Santiago de Compostela, where the shrine of Saint James the Great is in the cathedral itself. Tune in as The BeatiDudes talk with TJ Bogan, the founder and director of Follow My Camino, about the many facets of the Camino and the breakthroughs he and others have experienced during their pilgrimages.

Walking the Camino de Santiago | TJ Bogan | Episode #177

In this week&#39;s episode of Catholic ReCon, testimonies from reverts and converts, guest Mark Maszczak of Select International Tours joins the show to discuss an incredible series of experiences that led him to the Catholic Church. {This week&#39;s sponsor is Select Int&#39;l Tours} ▶Visit selectinternationaltours.com/recon to book a pilgrimage! What happens when a Christian musician raised in the Brethren Church begins to sense that there’s trouble brewing—and finds himself called to walk the Camino de Santiago and visit Lourdes? In this powerful testimony, he shares how God used pilgrimage, prayer, and an unexpected journey to draw him deeper into the Christian faith and ultimately toward the Catholic Church. What began as a journey on foot became something much deeper. Through the Camino, the Rosary, the tomb of St. James, and the ancient Christian practice of pilgrimage, God began opening his eyes to a faith he hadn’t fully understood before. This conversation is about more than walking the Camino de Santiago or going to Lourdes. It’s about what happens when God disrupts your plans, calls you somewhere unexpected, and uses the journey to help others. If you’ve ever wondered why pilgrimage has played such an important role in Christianity—or how God can use one journey to completely redirect a life—this testimony is for you. #Catholic #Christian #pilgrimage #truth #Testimony #Protestant #Bible #Video #Interview #Details ▶To support this channel, visit donorbox.org/catholic_recon▶This is the home of powerful, real-life faith transformations 🔔 SUBSCRIBE FOR MORE CONVERSION STORIES: @CatholicReCon Conversion stories are shared weekly.
