Luke and Gomer became friends Freshman year at the Franciscan University of Steubenville and 14 years later they started a podcast. The show oscillates between a conversation between just the two of us and interviews that we do together of other, fancier people. Sometimes we get explicit either by being too honest or by being too stupid. Either way, it's fun!

Let's Get Mad About Catholic Schools
It's a classic Catching Foxes episode this week, so strap in. Gomer finds a productivity religion, Luke already found one, apparently, and they both get mad about mediocre Catholic schools. Enjoy!

The Ark, the Dove, and the Gomer
Riverside wasn't terribly kind to us this time, but after technical issues, we're back!
We're Luke-less this week. However, like the hydra, we've added three heads after losing one. That's roughly how that myth goes, I'm pretty sure.
It's a great conversation about race and Catholicism. Strap in and prepare to be varying degrees of uncomfortable. It's good for you.

Going to Austria in My Mind
Normally Luke and Gomer reminisce about college without a strong purpose. This time, they reminisce so The Mothership will tweet this episode. Please?
Luke and Gomer discuss five things they each brought back from their time in Franciscan's Austria program and how those lessons apply to them as actually grown adults.
If you didn't believe they were elder Millennials, Gomer unironically says the phrase "school slapped different," three separate times. We give him points for trying. Play this audio Where's Waldo with us and see if you can find all three!

Just Let the Thing Be its Thing
Luke and Gomer talk about our Western obsession with constant growth.
Also on the docket for today's episode: flying is the worst, men are dumb in groups (but amicably fun), divorce (yikes), and Apple Vision Pro (again). Enjoy!

Ten Minute Topics? On a Tuesday? Too Good to be True!
We're changing our upload schedule! Turns out people listen to more podcasts on Tuesdays than Fridays and we need that sweet, sweet ad money.
We've got a fun round of Ten Minute Topics for this one! Highlights include silverback gorillas, the Catholic imagination, and FHA loans. If that set of topics doesn't intrigue you, frankly, we don't know what will. See you next Tuesday!

Customer Reviews
Nice guys
I’m not quite old enough to be their mom, but I’m kinda old. I like how this podcast feels like just hanging out with some cool young catholic guys. Wished they talk about more catholic things but sometimes hearing about picking skin off your feet is a good time.
Is this a good show?
No. Is this a bad show? Also no.
Luke and Gomer are a bit too ad hoc to make a good show. It’s never a bad show, it’s just probably 70% skippable to 30% insightful. But most of the skippable stuff is usually enjoyable even if being just catholic anima techniqua vacua or whatever.
Need more Fr. Fletcher’s in our world.
Thanks for your commitment to our church.
