Episode LXXII - Do You See Holes in My Hands?

We start with Christmas recaps where Neil realizes that he’s the true patron of his family now, passing him the torch to be a real Clark Griswold. Neil and I argue about calendars and when the Gregorian Calendar replaced the Julian Calendar for some reason. This brings us to Lent and our Lenten struggles for some reason led us into talking about why Millennials and Gen Xers are so overprotective of their kids and into a segment that we would like to call random story time. In this episode of random story time we tell the story of how my daughter and Neil’s son ran over a three year old in cold blood in a power wheels car. We end the conversation by giving a couple of sneak peaks at some (hopefully) upcoming new Among Wolves episodes and since we don’t know how to land the plan we spend the last 20 minutes talking about the Oscars and Oppenheimer.

Episode LXXI - External Goods

Neil teaches me all about March Madness, turns out these are college games and not professional ones. Who knew? The bulk of our conversation surrounded the idea of internal and external goods. How our culture is switching from a focus on the internal goods of their work (perfecting the craft) to a focus on the external goods (recognition, money, etc).

Episode LXVII - Restored Order 66

I started a new job with the Archdiocese of Las Vegas! Woohoo! Neil and I talk about my new job, then the state of Youth Ministry and Confirmation and we make arguments for and against restored order 66 (lol, you’ll get it if you listen). This led us to talking about the importance of Youth Group as growth in discipleship. The conversation turns to formation for adults and young adult formation in the diocese and turning the emphasis to small group communities that lead to events rather than events to form small groups and how this might actually encourage continual growth.

Episode LXVI - Arch Vegas Baby!

Neil and I are drinking Old Fashions made from Makers Mark 46 Bourbon. We begin by watching the Knights play the Panthers in overtime of game 3 of the Stanley cup, and there is a point in our discussion where the game ends and Neil gets really sad. Then we start talkin about how our diocese has been elevated to become the 34th Archdiocese in the USA. We answer some questions that people have asked us about the change: What is an archdiocese and how did they originate? When was the last archdiocese in the US named? Does this mean we get more money now? Does this mean Archbishop Thomas will have a later retirement date? What changes for us? What new symbols does Archbishop GLT get? Did GLT place a hockey bet with the Archbishop of Miami? Check out this article by The Pillar about her experience in Las Vegas on a Sunday!

Episode LXV - The Flight of Dragons

I know there was some cool Catholic stuff about the diocese of Las Vegas becoming the 34th Archdiocese in the US and we’ll get to that and Neil and I plan on releasing an episode about that next week. In this episode Neil and I talk about what’s really important…The Rankin/Bass movie from 1982 “Flight of Dragons”. I know you’ve never seen it, I know you’ve never heard of it, but it’s a fairytale that marks the beginning of the modern broken fairytale and the conversion of Magic into Science. We have an interesting conversion, but keep in mind, we’re both a few whiskeys in at this point… Gratuitous sound clips The Flight of Dragons (Title Song) - Don McLean LOTR The Fellowship of the Ring - Extended Edition - Bree Wizard of Oz, Scarecrow's Mathematical Error...
