Oh goodness. Oh God. I just stepped in cap. I should clean that. Uh, rambling discussion in theology that ends up with too many cabinet puns.

The time is nigh for us to review our New Years's resolutions. Of course when we made them we didn't know that the year 2020 will be THE year 2020. Thankfully, in hindsight, at least one of us made his resolutions to be very corona-friendly. The other guy managed to check his checkboxes for at least some of his (less important) resolutions. Which one is which? Let's find out!

In today's very serious episode we follow M, his brother and his father to HELL (and back!) - by 'hell' we mean the crumbling health system of a corruption-based, poverty-struck country that's nothing more than a plaything of world powers and pestilential winds. Pardon B's French.

Brigid is back so we finish where we left off - to answer the question how did she convert to Orthodoxy? What were her struggles? What was the most clickbaity title we could have chosen for this episode in order to optimize clicks, likes and subs? When is your feminism and secularism a mere foil for your jealousy? Thankfully, we have our lovely Brigid to answer all of these questions for us and inspire us to open 5 more hard questions! Stay tuned for our very special guest!

A serious episode today. As you might have heard, the Patriarch of Serbia Irinej has passed away due to Covid-19-related complications. You might have also heard that he's still alive and in critical condition. We discuss our own thoughts and feelings over this confusion as regards to health of His Holiness, as well as on the less than stellar approach of the Serbian Church to spreading information.

During the episode we mentioned a newly founded humanitarian organization: Kosovsko Pomoravlje (kosovskopomoravlje.org). Sadly they don't seem to have an English version of the website.

How do we approach the lockdown measures from the Church point of view? How to deal with kids as they grow up to find their church under a lock? Just how controversial is veiling in the Church, is it at least cool? Can we get in trouble over it? What are the dark sides of living in a country with a predominant Orthodox population? How does it feel for your husband to get you in touch with a celebrity? We sift through these questions casually and carelessly with lovely Brigid! Texas meets the Balkans, and it's okay!

Wanna see how friends catchup after 2 weeks? :) You're right, "friends" might be taking it too far. But we talked about many things with a smile, join us :)  Hint: Troparion to Met. Amphilochius played at the end of the video was written and sang by a church custodian from Belgrade, Serbia. May The Lord reward him for his heart.

Our new special guest is an altarboy, a judoka, a Russian, an American and a teenager - and an aspiring physicist! What are his altarboy pet peeves? What is in vogue with today's youth? Physics, really? Find out that and more in the next episode of Teen Mice Chronicles!

The mice have their own Official Protestant Consultant! His name is Austin and he's awesome, as you'll see within the first 15 minutes of our conversation. Austin runs a great Christian YouTube channel that goes by the name "Gospel Simplicity" where he explores Christianity from the lenses of different Christian faiths. He has just discovered Orthodoxy so let's cut him some slack :P Sub to him tho, he'll be having some prominent Orthos as guests on his channel in the days to come.

We wanted to record today so badly! But life (and our town manager Mr. Idiot) said NO! So we give you an impromptu, raw account on our failed day today. Enjoy if possible. 😂
