Welcome back to fellowship.

In this episode, Matt and Andrew tackle a deceptively simple question: Is the Fraternity losing its mystery? A conversation about photos in lodge unfolds into a deeper reflection on initiation, presence, and the unintended cost of constant visibility.

You can describe a thunderstorm forever, but standing in one is different. Degrees are designed to be thunderstorms. Social media has a way of flattening thunderstorms into JPEGs.

They explore how overexposure can dilute ritual, how images can be misused outside their context, and why some experiences are powerful precisely because they are lived rather than shared. 

Social media is a great tool, we should use it, but it needs to be circumscribed. 

Philosophy, humor, and a healthy respect for the unknown await.

Because not everything meaningful needs a camera.

So put your phone down, be present, and leave the some memories where they belong: in your mind and your heart. Because it is time for fellowship.

 Welcome back to fellowship! 

In this episode, the Brosts attempt to answer the philosophical question of what the Inner Temple is, how we build it, and what any of this has to do with pocket watches. 

Matt and Andrew wander through allegory, speculate wildly with minimal qualifications, and somehow connect temple-building to time itself. Is it deep? Maybe. Is it ridiculous? 

Absolutely. So prep for anything, because the Brosts are getting philosophical.

Welcome back to Fellowship!

This time around, the brosts sit down with Worshipful Brother Frank McKenna from Lake Country Lodge #43 right here in the great cheese-filled land of Wisconsin. Frank’s lived a whole lotta Masonry and has stories, wisdom, and educational prowess. 

We chat about Freemasonry, philosophy, life, the universe, and possibly breakfast sausage. It’s deep, it’s fun, it’s Frank.

So grab your apron, fire up that pod machine, and tune in for a good time with the man, the myth, the legend himself—Frank McKenna!

Welcome back to Fellowship!

On this episode, the Brosts are joined by Worshipful Brother John Pettigrew of James M. Hays Lodge No. 331.

Naturally, the burning question had to be asked: what does the “M” stand for in James M. Hays? To many it remains a mystery… but rumors persist that it might stand for Muckle. 

We share fellowship with John and dive into his unique Masonic journey, a bit of good-natured lodge rivalry, and plenty more along the way.

So grab a drink, get comfortable, and settle in for a wee muckle of fun.

On this episode, the brosts are kicking it old school with Worshipful Brother Brian Byrd from The Old Fashion Masonic Podcast.

We talk shop, swap stories, and uncover the sacred truth behind why there’s no “ED” in an Old Fashion. Plus plenty more spirited discussion along the way.

So grab some whiskey. Add a little sugar. Dash those bitters. Splash some water, drop in the ice, and twist that orange peel.

Because tonight… we’re having Old Fashions.

Check out Brian on his podcast!

Welcome back to Fellowship & Welcome to Season 3!

After a much-needed winter break filled with rest, snacks, and probably a few forgotten dues notices, the brosts are back and ready to kick off the new year.

To start the season, we're joined by a familiar voice. It's our very first guest (S1E5) the one and only WB Jeff Thiele. He just wrapped up his second term in the East, a full 9 years after his first. He claims it was voluntary, but we have questions.

Andrew is now the Worshipful Master of his lodge, and with Jeff recently finishing his latest run with the gavel, the timing couldn't be better. We're talking lessons learned, surprises the second time around, and what it's like to step back into the Chair after nearly two decades.

So loosen up your season 3s, sit back with your season 3s, and relax for season 3, because it is time for season 3 of fellowship!

Welcome back to fellowship!

In honor of Veterans Day, our hosts are joined by two phenomenal Brothers who have served both the country and the Craft. Worshipful Brother Jeremy Mathis from Waukesha Lodge and Brother Victor Magnus from Wautoma Lodge, both Army veterans, sit down with us to talk about the connection between military service and Freemasonry.

We discuss the role of Masonic values in the lives of veterans, the unique contributions they bring to the Lodge, and the long-standing relationship between the military and Freemasonry throughout history.

In this episode, our Brosts are joined by Right Worshipful Brother Chad Kopenski from Ohio, a Brother whose Masonic résumé reads like a legend.

He is a Past Master of Paramuthia Lodge No. 25 and the Ohio Lodge of Research, a Past Worthy Patron of Athens Chapter OES, and a Past Treasurer of Amesville Lodge. He has also served as a District Education Officer, District Deputy Grand Master, founding member of the Grand Lodge Membership Committee, Chairman of the Grand Lodge Education Committee, and President of MCME.

But wait, there’s more. He helped found the Royal Scofield Society, where he served as a Regent, and has worked with Tri-Rivers DeMolay as an advisor. To top it off, he’s also a member of Oregon Lodge No. 151 right here in Wisconsin.

With a guest like this, you know we had a fantastic conversation. So grab your apron, get comfy, and enjoy some quality fellowship.

Welcome back to fellowship!

On this epsiode the lads kick back and do what they do best: talk about life, brotherhood, and the beautifully chaotic journey. They touch on the joys and trials of parenting, the discipline of Jiu Jitsu, the wisdom of Freemasonry, and even a bit of dirty talk... in the garden, of course. 

This isn’t a deep dive into Masonic esoterica. It's more like a warm evening on the porch with two Brothers who know that sometimes the best light comes from good conversation. Tune in, laugh a little, and maybe plant a few seeds of your own.
