A topic everyone is curious about. Also, candy recommendations.

We are privileged to be joined this week by Fr. Joe Gile who oversees the academic curriculum for the men at the House of Formation. He also hired Fr. Chad for his first job and began his love for reading biographies of the saints.

Every day, the three priests make a holy hour. But what do they do in that holy hour? How do they pray? This week the priests of the Vocations Office share how they spend that 60 minutes before the Lord every day.

The stirring conlcusion of the Fr. Bernie interview. Any of the episodes could easily have been titled, Short Story Long. Also, this is the first time ever, the final word goes longer than our outro music. It may be the most fitting way to end this episode. We hope you have enjoyed it as much as we did.

The saga continues. In this thirty minute segment we travel from 1987 to 1994. We also try to teach Fr. Drew what a word processor is. You can hear the train coming off the rails at the end. Enjoy.

Fr. Bernie Gorges joins us in the studio for an extended visit. He weaves together his vocation story, the start of Totus and his history with dairy farms, Medjugorje, and adoration. This is part 1 of a 3 part series. It wasn't planned that way, it is just how it is. If you know Fr. Bernie, you understand. Enjoy--we did!

Its Holy Week! After discussing some of their favorite memories from the Easter Triduum, the priests turn to talking about their experiences at ordinations, priest funerals, seminary visits and retreats.

Another member of the Burns family steps into the podcast studio. For long time listeners, we finally hear Fr. Devin's side of the story of how he told his parents he was leaving KU and going to seminary.

What was Fulton Sheen's experience right before entering seminary? The priests read a section from Sheen's masterful work, Treasures in Clay, and discuss how it challenges them. Plus it gets a little heated over the Beatles.
