Classical Theism Podcast

This is a MEGA re-release episode with our 2 interviews with Dr. Edward Feser. The first comes from 2019 on his book Five Proofs of the Existence of God and the second from 2024 on What is Classical Theism. 

The Classical Theism Podcast aims to defend Catholic Christian ideas in conversation. With the help of various guests, I defend three pillars of the Catholic Christian worldview: (1) the God of classical theism exists, (2) Jesus is our Messiah and Lord, and (3) He founded the Catholic Church. We place a strong emphasis on the first pillar, defending classical theism, drawing upon the work of Thomistic philosopher Dr. Edward Feser and many others.

Fr. Cajetan Cuddy joins the show to introduce Fr. Garrigou-Lagrange's major two-volume work on apologetics. He wrote the introduction to this magnificent work, recently translated by Dr. Matthew Minerd. In this episode, Fr.
