What happens when doing the right thing leads to more suffering?

In this episode of Logos Podcast, Joe Heschmeyer (Catholic Answers) joins us to break down one of the most challenging questions in moral philosophy: can you ever do evil so that good may come from it?

We dive into the thought of philosopher Elizabeth Anscombe and explore:

• Why intention matters in moral decisions
• The problem with consequentialism
• Whether outcomes justify actions
• The morality behind real-world dilemmas like war and the atomic bomb
• How Catholic teaching approaches suffering, truth, and virtue

This conversation challenges the modern mindset that results are all that matter and offers a deeper framework rooted in truth, conscience, and the moral life.

“There may be times where… more suffering was caused by doing the right thing… and we would say: it doesn’t matter.”

What happens when Shayne Smith agrees to eat wings that get hotter every round?In this episode, things start off fun but get real pretty quick. As the heat kicks in, the conversation shifts into faith, marriage, prayer, suffering, and what it actually looks like to try to live a real Catholic life day to day.There’s a lot of chaos, a lot of honesty, and somehow it all turns into a solid conversation about vocation, discipline, and learning to follow God in the middle of a messy life.This one’s painful, funny, and way more real than expected.– Connect with us here:Website: http://www.logos-podcast.com/Spotify:https://open.spotify.com/show/3PCPWBvNcAbptX17PzlC2x?si=BkEHS4vGSf-xmMlDFcpZ2QApple Podcasts:https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/logos-podcast/id1560191231YouTube: https://youtube.com/@logospodxast?si=RaYkZAfLKea2kBtZInstagram:https://www.instagram.com/logospodxastPatreon: https://www.patreon.com/logospodcastSponsored by St. Paul's CenterGary Michuta’s new book, Messiah: stpaulcenter.com/messiah-logos

What really happened on Holy Thursday?
In this episode of the Logos Podcast, we break open the mystery of the Last Supper, the institution of the Eucharist, and the origin of the priesthood—all in one night. As the Church enters the most sacred time of the year, we explore how the Paschal Mystery doesn’t begin on Good Friday… but on Holy Thursday.
From St. Paul’s earliest account of “This is my body” to the deeper meaning of the Triduum as one continuous liturgy, this conversation unpacks what the Eucharist actually is—and why it changes everything.
If you’ve ever struggled to understand the Mass, the Cross, or the Eucharist, this episode will help you see it with new clarity.

In this episode of the Logos Podcast, Fr. Max and Fr. Joseph sit down with Cameron Fradd for a conversation on motherhood, spiritual warfare, and the deeper meaning of sacrifice.

Drawing from her own life as a wife and mother, Cameron reflects on the hidden suffering that often accompanies motherhood and how it reveals something profound about the Christian life. What does it mean for a mother to live the words of Christ — “This is my body, given for you”? And how can women confront the lies that distort their identity and vocation?

Together they explore the beauty of the feminine genius, the spiritual battle for identity in modern culture, and the redemptive meaning of suffering in light of the Cross.

This episode is a reflection on motherhood, sacrifice, and the mystery of love that gives itself away.

What does it mean to become a student of culture?

In this episode of the Logos Podcast, Fr. Joseph and Fr. Max introduce a new initiative called Students of Culture — a community for people who want to read the signs of the times, think deeply about the world around them, and discover the truth, goodness, and beauty present even in contemporary culture.

Drawing inspiration from the Church’s tradition and the thought of Pope St. Paul VI, they explain how Christians are called not to retreat from culture but to enter into dialogue with the world — recognizing the traces of the Logos present in music, art, film, and the human heart.

Students of Culture is an invitation to become intellectual disciples:
people who study, think critically, engage culture, and grow in love for Christ through the pursuit of truth.

Join the conversation and become a Student of Culture.

In this episode of Logos Podcast, we sit down with Dominican friar Father Gregory Pine to talk about the power of speech, sins of the tongue, and why our words matter more than we think.

Drawing from his book Training the Tongue: Growing Beyond Sins of Speech, Father Gregory explores:

• Is it ever okay to use cuss words?
• What counts as taking God’s name in vain?
• Can we become overly scrupulous about speech?
• The spiritual danger of “locker room talk” culture
• The forgotten power of silence
• Why our integrity and speech ultimately pre-exist in God

From Genesis and the power to name, to modern social media pressure to “say something” about everything — this conversation challenges how Catholics think about words, humor, roasting culture, confession, and everyday speech.

What is penance, really? Is it just giving up chocolate for Lent — or is it something much deeper?

In this episode of the Logos Podcast, Father Max and Father Joseph unpack the true meaning of penance: not just as a Lenten practice, but as a virtue, a sacrament, and a lifelong conversion of heart. Drawing from St. Thomas Aquinas, St. John Paul II, and the rich Catholic tradition, they explore metanoia, the Sacrament of Confession, satisfaction for sins, fasting, mortification, and the powerful difference between active and passive penance.

Comedian Egan sits down to talk stand-up comedy, Catholic faith, guilt, confession, and what it’s like bombing on stage, living on a sailboat, and accidentally turning your life into material. From growing up Catholic in New Orleans to doing comedy in LA and Austin, this episode dives into Catholic humor, stand-up comedy stories, faith and comedy, near-death experiences, Japan, and why being honest is funnier than being perfect.
