Thank you
I only found this podcast series a few months ago and I have listened relentlessly ever since. I have a long drive to work and so I average 3 or 4 a day. These priests are wonderful, relatable, articulate and intelligent men who share so much. I live on the other side of the world and yet I feel so connected. They are a blessing, in a world so torn and disconnected. Their faith, certainly has helped mine. I really hope they continue to make them. I’m praying for them.
Wow
I’ve been listening to these guys for years, from Seminary, the Diaconate and Priesthood. Going on their journey through the faith and their companionship has been incredible. A lot of times I’ve accompanied their podcast by sharing a whiskey with them. I’ve laughed out loud with them, got emotional with them, and more than I care to admit, I’ve been held accountable by their truth and honesty. Keep up the good work lads.
