Customer Reviews
Great show. Wish there were more episodes
Love the show Father Dave & crew.
Highly recommend!!
I really enjoy listening to this podcast. I have learned so much about the Catholic faith but with humor and humility. The questions that they delve into are real life questions and really make me feel as if this is a learning process and every day we strive to get better. Thank you Father Dave and the busted halo podcast crew for bringing this to us. I just listened to a podcast on what does faith mean and they went very deep and really hit home. Thank you for being so honest and vulnerable.
Growing up in the Catholic faith it has always been very formal and this podcast feels like talking to a friend. Thank you!
Busted Halo: For Busted People needing “Halo” repairs
Basically this is what The Busted Halo Show is for some people who are like so-so Catholic or Christian in their faith but not too much a traditional Uber Catholic or Evangelical that they are ignorant in accepting their brothers /sisters in the faith.
Yes we are called to be good for heaven but then our “Halos” need repairs if broken or tarnished. This is where this show comes in. This faith is shared quite joyfully in this program.
This is for those who want a variety of topics from the latest news of the topics affecting the Church to the newer generation seeking a better quality of Evangelization.
While some can agree with the various guests on the show sometimes questions of faith are in search of answers that can’t be fixed with a “busted halo”and who better to find than New York City Priest Fr. Dave Dwyer CSP in his Radio Ministry on Sirius XM The Catholic Channel 129.
So if you want to get a bit of repairs then take a listen & see. This is what living in the faith shared joyfully sounds like.
