    The interview begins at 1:21:38.

    Congrats to James on actually being Catholic, now!

    Listen to a live recording of a real-life internet celebrity deleting his FB profile! The Men get into Catholic Church craziness, we discuss the ills of modernity, the heresies of liberalism and Americanism, and how they’re causing prelates out in LA to push weird sexual degeneracy. We talk about how Zucc has been censoring Catholic pages and also Cardinal Timothy Dolan’s op-ed in the WSJ about how the Democrat party has turned it’s back on Catholicism.

    We have two interviews today. The first is a religious scholar from Sweden named Johan Edebbo. He gives us his insights into Catholicism and why he’s converting to the Church from Lutheranism following his study of GK Chesterton.  The second is with the founder of the Traditian Order, Patrick Pierce. We discuss his reasons for founding the order and how you can join to help the cause of promoting traditionalism. Enjoy!

    Oh! How To Be A Christian is back!

        This week we have James Arruda, Shawn Smith, and Sam Bolton. We get into momentous world events with the canceling of Rick and Morty and Shawn’s mild disagreement with Vox Day. We have a big-brained discussion about the nature of humor, usury, and economics. We all have a listen to Ned Beatty’s epic monologue from 1976’s Network and then give a little insight into how and why we became Catholic in the first place.

        Tune in to hear a joke I probably should have cut out.

          • Against the Naivetés of Modernity – 019

            Facebook – Twitter – Gab – Patreon – Paypal

            This week we have Frank Andollo, James Olson, and Sam Bolton to discuss some of the happenings going on in the Church and some commentary on the state of our world. We get into the male escort who leaked the names of 40 gay prelates to the Diocese of Naples. We discuss Jordan Peterson and the impact he’s having as a non-Catholic intellectual with great respect for Christianity. Anthony Esolen provides us with a stirring call for the Church to boldly take a stand much like Peterson has. We then get into a conversation about Placuit Deo and the backgrounds of Pelagianism and Gnosticism. This leads us to a discussion of Our Blessed Mother as the Hammer of Heresies.

            The 2nd segment has us lambasting the abortion industrial complex and their plans to subvert our democratic process with their blood money. Finally, we conclude with a sobering and inspiration call from Msgr. Charles Pope to shed our “comfort Catholicism” and embrace a warrior stance in our faith.

                      Nick B. Steves joins MWC to discuss America. We get into her founding, what ails her thinking, and what a monarchical future might look like on this continent. We also discuss Moldbug and NRx thought more broadly.

                      In the first hour, we have Sam Bolton, Shawn Smith, and James Arruda. James gives us his impressions of the book The end of the Modern World. We talk a lot about the problem of masculinity today and why there isn’t enough of it. We get into how this affects the shortage of priests and how we can inspire men to once again wage glorious jihad against their inner bug man. We also have a discussion about sodomy and how even demons are grossed out by it.

                            Jay Dyer joins MWC to discuss social engineering, who’s doing it, and why. We get into the ancient origins of this diabolism, how it became industrialized, and talk about some of the shadowy groups and figures behind it all. We also talk transhumanism, Darwinism, and how this agenda has impacted Christianity and the Church.

                            During the news round-up we have a fairly long discussion about monarchism and then we offer some helpful tip on how to increase your reverence during mass.

                                  The Men With Chests return with a lively discussion about contraception, the scandals rocking the Church, and how Catholic Men are supposed to live in response. We talk about China and Catholic social doctrine which gets us into the differences between monarchism, distributism, and anarcho-capitalism. We also talk about why it is important for us to be friendly to our allies in the Protestant world that fight on the same side in the culture war.

                                            The Men With Chests tackle 82% of the important issues of the day. We cover a listener question about how the Church regards the forgivability of serial killers which leads us into a conversation about cheap grace and purgatory. We also talk about St. Paul and how the early Church must’ve regarded him. We get into a recent tweet by Matthew Dowd about abortion and Catholicism, we discuss the first Thanksgiving on the North American continent, the threat of materialism and Black Friday, and how B A S E D Poland is hopefully abolishing shopping on Sunday. Finally, we get into a lengthy discussion about the Social Kingship of Christ and a hilarious Babylon Bee article to sum it all up.  Tune in to hear why it’s more likely that the UK will abolish shopping on Friday.
