Why are American colleges and universities failing to instruct their students in virtue, and what can be done about this issue? Kyle Washut joins us.

The idea of Integralism holds that the Catholic Church should have indirect authority over Christian states. We examine what it means with Kevin Vallier.

The utopian vision of the left has inspired a shift toward various forms of reactionaryism on the right, not just in America, but across the globe. How does the faithful freedom-lover stay sane and move our conversations forward? Dr. Rachel Ferguson is our guest.

Each epoch of history brings stories of pain, triumph, oppression, freedom, purpose, suffering, grief, and joy. Leslie Corbly joins us to explore the depths of the human experience through an exploration of the present moment, a time in which postmodern, progressive ideas reign as the societal benchmark for goodness, justice, beauty, and—ironically—truth.

“Conscience” and “conscience rights” are not terms used as much as they used to be. Yet a notion of conscience is essential to understanding why freedom is necessary and to what it is directed. We talk more with David Deavel.

Pope Francis has made a number of statements on economic matters that have led critics to describe him as "left wing" or even "Marxist". The reality is different. Philip Booth examines Pope Francis’ Catholic social teaching.

Three ascendant ideologies distort the truth about human nature, and in the process, become deeply anti-human. All result from failing to capture the fully material and fully spiritual nature of man. Transgenderism and Transhumanism abandon the body. Deep ecology reduces man to a (merely material animal). We analyze these ideologies with Jay Richards.

American Catholics traditionally do not advocate for authoritarian or "integralist" approaches to politics. Rather, they have advocated for a Catholic interpretation of American constitutional republicanism. The two most important twentieth-century figures in conceptualizing this interpretation were Ven. Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen and Fr. John Courtney Murray. Despite writing nearly a century ago, their ideas are newly relevant given the current political context for people of faith in America and more broadly. James Patterson has more.

Our Lady of the Rosary School is a Classical School located in Uganda. Fr. Joseph Lugalambi tells us more about how he is bringing education to one of the poorest parts of the world.

Government is fitting to human nature. But political government is subsidiary to the self-government that humans perform within natural communities and associations. God made us to govern ourselves and some part of the world for a common good. We explore what this means with Dr. Hunter Baker.
