Matthew Plese is a third order Dominican, president of https://www.catechismclass.com/ , speaker, and author. He wrote The Definitive Guide to Catholic Fasting and Abstinence which we discuss today. Why do we fast? How has the Church fasted in the past? How should we fast today?

We cover all of this and much more.
