The Catholic Couple

Is Tradition Making a Comeback? with Austin Peck


Listen Later

If you’ve ever wondered why people are flocking back to tradition — incense, Latin, pilgrimage, ritual, reverence — you’re gonna want to hear what a former Hollywood actor discovered across Spain that most Catholics have never seen.

What happens when a Hollywood actor spends years chasing truth… and finds it in the last place he expected?

In this week’s episode of The Catholic Couple Podcast, Bobby sits down with Austin Peck — former soap-opera star turned Catholic storyteller — for a raw, fascinating, and deeply human conversation about his journey from Hollywood sets to the heart of the Church.

After a powerful conversion, Austin dove into Scripture, wrestled with Christian identity, and walked a long road through evangelicalism. But the deeper he searched, the more he was drawn toward something ancient, rooted, and shockingly alive: Catholic Tradition.

Now, Austin is helping the world rediscover it.

He joins us to talk about his newest project with Mass of the Ages: the all-new series Discover Tradition, where he serves as host and co-producer. In Episode 1, Austin travels across Spain during Holy Week, uncovering the breathtaking rituals, devotions, and cultural expressions that point to the depth and beauty of the Catholic faith.
