Matt and Cameron Fradd Go on a Date (and You're Third-Wheeling) | Ep. 537

Episode replay from the first season. Today's guest is Fr. Paul Scalia, the Vicar General of the Diocese of Arlington. Fr. Scalia shares his testimony and a bit about growing up with his father, Antonin Scalia. He talks about his calling into the priesthood and what it's like to be a priest for such a young diocese. We discuss the state of men today and how in today's society, men have been deprived of heroes and the role of providing and protecting. Additionally, we talk about the need for fraternity, specifically in seminaries and the priesthood, and for fatherhood in the family and the Church.

EP 72 - Q&A With Fr. Larry Richards - The Reason For Our Hope Foundation

Brothers, what if the quiet guy in the Bible could teach you how to master temptation and tackle life’s toughest hits? Welcome back to The Manly Catholic for another Lenten deep dive into St. Joseph, this time with Patrick O’Hearn—author and past guest from Episode 112. Today, we’re zeroing in on two game-changers: Joseph’s ironclad purity and his knack for enduring suffering. If you’re ready to stop folding to the world’s lies and start fighting like a saint, hit play and let’s get to it.Patrick drops some heavy truth here. He calls St. Joseph a "martyr of purity"—married to the most beautiful woman ever, yet living a life of total sacrifice, not possession. That’s strength, guys, not weakness. Then there’s his suffering—scrambling for a home for Mary, feeling outmatched by his holy family, yet never quitting. Sound familiar? We’ve all felt like failures as dads, husbands, or just men trying to keep it together. Joseph shows us purity isn’t just dodging sin—it’s honoring beauty—and suffering’s a forge, not a grave.Your challenge: Pick Your Fight. Two options—purity or perseverance. For purity, guard your heart today—delete social media apps (Instagram, Twitter, whatever’s got you scrolling), pray to St. Joseph when temptation hits, and ditch the smartphone noise. For perseverance, pinpoint one spot you’re struggling—family, work, whatever—and take it to prayer. Journal it, plan one faithful step forward, and lean on Joseph to carry that cross. Optimized for men hungry for holiness, this episode’s your battle plan. Products/References<ul><li>Our Lady of Sorrows (book by Patrick O’Hearn): Check it out and Episode 112.</li><li>St. Joseph Terror of Demons Prayer: Recited here—find it online.</li><li>Memorare to St. Joseph: Closing prayer—look it up for daily use.</li></ul>3 Powerful Quotes<ol><li>"St. Joseph is a martyr of purity… married to the most beautiful woman in the world and he could not consummate his love."</li><li>"Purity is not only possible but is the path to true strength and holiness."</li><li>"Suffering is not meaningless, it is a pathway to holiness."</li></ol>Guard your heart now.

From gang life to God’s grace—Alan Diaz’s transformation is nothing short of miraculous. In this gripping episode of Heroic Stories, Alan shares his journey from the dark streets of New York, where violence and survival ruled his days, to a life of faith, purpose, and true Brotherhood in Christ. He opens up about the pain of abandonment, the false promises of gang loyalty, and the moment he cried out to God for a way out. A chance encounter, the love of a good woman, and an unexpected blessing set him on a path to redemption. Now, Alan is a devoted husband, father, and leader in his community, using his testimony to reach the next generation. This is a story of struggle, faith, and the power of real Brotherhood—the kind that lifts men up rather than tears them down.Subscribe free to weekly Heroic Men email: <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://stories.heroicmen.org">https://stories.heroicmen.org</a>| ABOUT THIS SHOW |Heroic Stories—the series to strengthen Catholic men with raw stories of heroic grit &amp; faith.

The World Needs YOU To Be A Leader w/ Dr. Dan Schneider

Everyone who tries to do something new has to go through the pain of actually doing it.  Ideas are one thing, inspiration is another, but execution is where things really happen.  And executing on an idea carries with it a burden – the sacrifice of the grind.  Is it possible to stay happy even when toiling?  What happens to a Christian’s joy when they embrace the grind?  And how can we embrace the grind in a way that not only maintains our joy but allows it to expand.

DGT Episode 331 - Embracing The Grind - Secrets To Joyful Leadership Part 4

Twenty-year-old Catholic YouTube strategist Evan Raugust is with the BeatiDudes to unpack his recent solo trip through the Holy Land, including places like Bethlehem’s cave, Nazareth’s streets, Golgotha’s stones, and the peaceful waters of the Sea of Galilee. 
Evan shares how filming on pilgrimage deepened his faith, how he designs thumbnails and stories that reach millions, and why “vanity metrics” must stay in their place. Paul Kolker, Nick Bezner, and Jeff Schiefelbein talk community, humility, and the Church’s mission on the “eighth continent”: the internet.
Highlights:
• Holy Land, handheld: Evan traveled solo by bus and foot to film the major sites of Jesus’ life, turning Scripture locations into lived reality.
• Expectation vs. reality: From beach trash along Galilee to Nazareth’s modern demographics, the surprise details made the Gospel feel even more human and immediate.
• Sea of Galilee moment: In loneliness and awe, Evan experienced God’s
protection, seeing Peter’s rescue as present tense, not past.
• Community matters: The comment box brings prayer requests, testimonies, and real relationships, proof the internet is a place for mission, not just a tool.
• Why film elevates memory: Editing forces deep reflection, turning travel into testimony that others can actually enter.
Key Takeaways
• Pilgrimage reframes Scripture as a specific place and time, and that
concreteness strengthens faith.
• Creative discipline (clear hook, visual contrast, tight narrative) is how
beauty meets reach.
• Numbers serve mission; they don’t define worth. Keep virtue ahead of virality.
• The Church’s digital mission works best when creators ask for prayer,
accountability, and community.

How are Christians called to respond to the polarization of our nation? How should we respond to the rioting and looting of stores? How do we navigate the difficult conversations around these things and racism that must be had?&nbsp;

Accepting Who God Made You to Be (Fr. Mike Schmitz) | Ep. 549

Not a deep dive into scripture, but a casual reflection into the works of the Early Church and other powerful Heroes of our faith, like Elijah. Some terms:
"Crucible" (from the Latin, "crux"): A situation of severe trial, or in which different elements interact, leading to the creation of something new (Source: lexico.com: <a href="https://www.lexico.com/definition/crucible" target="_blank">https://www.lexico.com/definition/crucible</a>).

Prayer to St. Michael the Archangel: "St. Michael, the Archangel, defend us in this day of battle; be our safeguard against the wickedness and snares of the Devil. May God rebuke him and do thou, O Prince of the Heavenly Host--by the Power of God--cast into Hell Satan and all evil spirits who prowl throughout the world seeking the ruin of Souls. Amen."

Most of us spend most of our time working.  And yet most of us have a hard time linking what we do when we work to the most important of tasks – namely, our relationship with God.  In this series I want to explore the deep foundations of the work that we do and its link to our spirituality.

DGT Episode 26 - Laborem Exercens - The Spirituality Of Work Part 6

What happens when two intentional grandparents turn a simple
idea into a decades-long family tradition? 
Meet Michael Green, 80 years young, who, with his bride
Rosemary, built “Grandma &amp; Grandpa Camp,” a week of fun, formation, and cousin-to-cousin friendship that’s changed their entire family culture. From “I Wear Pink for Grandma” (a breast-cancer-survivor moment that will hit you right in the heart) to “non-negotiables” like high tea in a tux, outdoor movie night, and murder-mystery dinners, Michael shows the BeatiDudes how ordinary time, shared faithfully, becomes extraordinary grace. Along the way, we talk faith, Eucharistic reverence, Fulton Sheen, and why the rule “No Parents Allowed” might be the secret sauce to stronger generational bonds.
Paul Kolker, Nick Bezner, and Jeff Schiefelbein learn all about how to run a successful Grandma &amp; Grandpa Camp.

No Parents Allowed | Michael Greene | Episode #257

An engaged and loving father has a direct effect on the morality of his son or daughter. A father’s love impresses upon his child that he or she is beloved. The child will grow in confidence as they are loved and will more easily be able to bring love into his or her relationships, and ultimately the world. When a father’s love is not imparted, history has shown that there are devastating consequences.

Ep 13: Mind-Blowing Statistics: How Fatherhood Absence Affects Our World

Converting to Catholocism is not easy. It's not easy spiritualy, emotionally, socially, or practically speaking. But it was an even tougher journey for today's guests, Clay and Cat Dimick. &nbsp;&nbsp;
This young married couple had an incredible journey home to the Catholic Church. They dealt with pushback from family, self-doubt, and struggles with Catholic teaching. &nbsp;&nbsp;
Their boldness in faith and commitment to excellence is absolutely awe-inspiring.&nbsp;

Episode 22 “Terror of Demons” features Fr.

Terror of Demons w/ Fr. Donald Calloway

Bruce Lee once famously quipped that in order to win in martial arts you had to be like water.  Willing to find any crack, any way and being irresistible in your motion forward.  We see the same thing in the life of St. Peter and we see the same thing in the life of every successful business leader.  Let’s look at how this applies at our spirituality today.

Stop complaining!! Nobody wants to hear it and it&#39;s not good for your soul! 
 
But seriously, we need a reality check. We ought to be grateful for the things we GET to do, rather than constantly complaining about all the things we HAVE to do.

This is another one of our most popular episodes from 2023! Father Vincent Lampert, the exorcist of the Archdiocese of Indianapolis, discusses various topics related to the reality of the devil and spiritual warfare. He shares his background as an exorcist and the process of discerning and preparing for exorcisms. Father Lampert also addresses the rise in demonic activity and the fascination with the occult. He emphasizes the importance of confession and the power of fathers in leading their families in spiritual warfare. Father Lampert provides practical tips for combating the demonic and encourages individuals to seek help from their parish priests. He concludes by highlighting the role of exorcism in evangelization. In this conversation, Father Lampert discusses the topic of exorcism and provides insights into the role of the Church in dealing with possession.

Ep 106 - The Devil is Real and Why We Should Not Fear Him with Fr. Lampert

Ohhhhh boy! You have been waiting for the day and here it is! Father Dom and James had the privilege and honor of interviewing the one and only Jesse Romero on the podcast and boy, did he not disappoint! For those of you who don't know Jesse, I am just going to drop a quote from his website: “If your parish suffers from low energy, call me, I can jump start it. I’m a full Gospel, Bible Believing, Born Again, Spirit Filled, Evangelical, Orthodox Catholic Christian, washed and empowered by the blood of Jesus.  With a Bible in one hand, with a rosary in my other hand and with Jesus in my heart, you will hear the fullness of the Catholic faith in an evangelical style with devil destroying theology.” To say Jesse is energetic and passionate is an understatement. He brought the fire and hammer down during the podcast and you will not want to miss it. Be sure you check out the resources listed below to find out more about Jesse, ways to support the podcast, and other great content on our other social media platforms.  Like what you heard?

Ep 53 | Do you have what it takes?

What’s missing when most Catholic's practice the faith? Care. Love begins with caring, and community begins with accompaniment. In this episode, John challenges us to stop going through the motions and start answering the call to care—for real people, in real tangible ways. 

If you’ve ever felt unwanted—or if you’ve found yourself missing out on meaningful relationships because of work or technology—this one’s for you.

A native of Spain, young Jesuit Peter Claver left his homeland forever in 1610 to be a missionary in the colonies of the New World. He sailed into Cartagena, a rich port city washed by the Caribbean. He was ordained there in 1615. Deacon Harold breaks open more on St. Peter today. Also looking into Soulful Psalm 31:20 & 21

Saint Peter Claver

Today Deacon Harold looks into our reflections when we go to Mass

Reflections on the Mass

Today we share the second half of Bishop Barron's 2020 address at the United States Naval Academy in Annapolis, titled "Called Into the Depths." He discussed three sailors from the Bible: the patriarch Noah, the prophet Jonah, and our Savior Jesus Christ. The sea can be thought of as something frightening and terrifying, standing athwart the purposes of God with its unforgiving power and discouraging darkness. However, when we allow ourselves to be swallowed up by the Lord's will, we will find a peace that is sure and unshakable, even in the midst of the worst storms.

Sex has the ability to make a marriage great and holy, yet how often does it become an obstacle to true love and unity? Today, we talk about 7 points that are necessary to have beneficial communication with your wife on this issue. Most couples find this topic challenging to have, and since great marriages do not happen by accident, we want to provide you with tools to make this area of your marriage a place to grow in love and holiness.

How to Discuss Sex with Your Wife

Global executive and Scouting America leader Sean Magennis joins the tiny table to share how a life of worldwide leadership, deep friendship, and renewed faith has led him right back to serving young people. 
Hosts Paul Kolker, Nick Bezner, and Jeff Schiefelbein walk with Sean through his years activating communities around the globe through YPO and Tiger 21, his time living and worshiping in places like Dubai, India, and Singapore, and his powerful experiences of the Church in many languages and cultures. Along the way, Sean reflects on the legacy of his late friend Rick Sapio, the grace of standing at his funeral and graveside, and how faith can remain an anchor even when our certainties and perspectives shift over time.
Now serving as an executive at Scouting America, Sean explains why he believes scouting is one of the most important youth movements in the world, especially because it keeps God at the center of its mission. He shares how the Scout Oath, the EDGE method of learning, and the wood badge formation are shaping kids into articulate, grounded leaders who know how to serve, collaborate, and persevere. 
From multicultural outreach and trades training to Pinewood Derby dreams and alumni reengagement, Sean invites listeners to see scouting as a powerful way to invest in the next generation while staying rooted in Catholic faith, authentic fraternity, and a sense of joyful adventure.

Fatima, Portugal is site of greatest event in Church history. In last of 6 apparitions, the 1917 Miracle of the Sun was of Biblical measure.
