Fun and informative

Listening is like sitting around with a group of friends talking about super important topics.

Thought provoking

I really enjoy the Pit of Culture. The hosts are very good together and I always learn something new. The podcast is informal, but they don’t have too much banter and there’s a lot of substance. Highly recommend.

Relatable and Holy Topics

This podcast is great for young Catholics to gain practical insights on how to more fully live out their faith.
