The UnCommon Good with Bo Bonner and Dr. Bud Marr Bo Bonner and Dr. Bud Marr

Join us as we talk to "Elder Statesman of Vatican Insiderism" Christopher Altieri, digging into his experience as a Journalist covering the goings on with the Holy See and Vatican City, as we clear up misunderstandings and delve into confusions about the reality on the ground at the heart of Roman Catholicism!

We talk to Dr. Jeffrey Morrow (check out all his work here: https://stpaulcenter.com/dr-jeffrey-morrow/) about his recent work, the veracity of the Resurrection, and what Biblical criticism is. A very informative show!

It's a touchy subject, but it is right in our wheelhouse, so we need to comment: What's the deal with A.I. Chatbot Priests? We take on the controversy regarding Catholic Answer's "Fr. Justin" AI Chatbot, try to suss out why the response was as swift and heavy (and almost in complete unity!), and hopefully point to learning moments we can all share from this episode in the annals of Catholic popular media history!

We take a somewhat crazy Tweet about expertise in biblical translation and try to get at the root of a big debate: should you trust experts? What is an expert? Is that different than the "masters" of old? Do they both have their place in society? With a Faith like ours that believes in the Master/Disciple relationship, what ramifications does that have for us? Find out in this episode!

I don't know where you were if you didn't hear: there is a new DDF document in town! On the Infinite Dignity of the Human Person...well that is something worth unpacking!

It's Eastertide friends! We hope you are doing your job and having as much mirth and joy as possible! In this episode, we consider the Emmaus Road readings from the Easter week liturgy, and ponder what it means to rest with the Resurrected Lord during Eastertide. We end up talking about how to "hear" Scripture best, and talk about the role of hearing the Word in the Liturgy. Blessings to everyone--the Lord is Risen Indeed!
