Catholic Hitch

This week, we talk about our cookie conundrum and our experience playing "Mansions of Madness."  Then, we share some thoughts about what is happening at our Parish due to a combination of a new pastor and COVID.  And face the question:  do we stay, or do we go?

In this week's episode, we talk about our annual family trip to a mountain cabin to celebrate the Epiphany, and then we talk about a really interesting and illuminating activity we did as a family (no spoilers on the activity, so you can "play" at home).  Here is the planner we're talking about, from Ascension Press.  Honestly, quite an impressive planner so far! (And, no, Ascension Press didn't pay us to say this, lol, our reach is not quite what they're looking for in their ad strategy...).

In this pre-Christmas episode, it's a quiz show!  After talking a bit about widows ministry, we open up the second volume of the Baltimore Catechism and quiz each other over two chapters:  Confession and Indulgences.

This week, we chat about Systemic Cookie Elitism, Kit's experience taking a certification exam, and have a "Devil's Advocate" on a subject neither of us have a strong opinion on (and it shows):  When to best bring out Christmas Decorations.  Then, we start an impromptu discussion of our own Christmas decorating experience this year, which ended up being far from ideal.

In this week's episode, we talk about St. Joseph of Cupertino, aider of test-takers, watching Die Hard for the first time, and then the experience of being haunted by a Psalm.  We also talk about trying to quiet and calm our own darn souls during the loudest and craziest times of human history.  Probably.

This week, Dale is talking about MC training and his top ten list of things you should know if you're training to be an MC.  We also talk briefly about being ready for Advent.  And, poo-dar (like radar, just for...you know).

This week, we're talking about Thanksgiving -- to flout the law, or not to flout the law, that is the question?  We also spend time talking about our Grandfather Clock that is a regular guest on our show and how, and why, it came to be.

In this week's episode, we talk about our welder adventures (including an awkward return situation).  Then, we talk about everyone's *favorite* epistle reading topic:  wives being submissive and under the control of their husbands.

In this week's episode, we talk about starting our Advent/Christmas preparations (with an epic meta Christmas card and newsletter), and then we dive in deep into Tim Gray's talk, Advent: Rethinking the Season.  This talk is available on Formed.org, which is an amazing streaming service of the Augustine Institute.  The talk is epic, and we only talk about a part of it that blew our minds!  Yes, Advent is four weeks away, but starting to think about it now will lead to a (hopefully) more fruitful season.  At least if we don't all have COVID.
