Welcome back to Fellowship!

This week, our Brosts Matt and Andrew are joined by two brothers who are on a mission to make the Work competitive in the best possible way.

Brother Ryan Thiele, a fan favorite from Lake and Middleton Ionic lodge circuit, returns to the show alongside Worshipful Brother Eric Pantano, District Lecturer of District 7.

Together, they're building something pretty cool: a Ritual Tournament for District 7. And they're here to talk about how it's coming together, what it's going to look like, and why they think a little friendly competition might be exactly what Wisconsin lodges need right now.

It's a great conversation about ritual, accountability, and what happens when brothers actually care about doing the Work well.

So dust off your cipher, find your good suit, and may the best man win because it's time for fellowship.

Welcome back to fellowship!

Your brosts are back, and this week we're joined by a special guest Brother Brock from Raven Lodge 303 in Illinois, and one of the hosts of the At Refreshment Podcast. He's one of our favorite people in the Craft, and we were stoked to finally get him on the show.

We dig into Masonry, meander through some silly tangents, and explore every hogdag hole we can find along the way. It's the kind of conversation that could only happen between brothers  and we had a great time having it.

Pull up a chair. Refreshment is served.

Welcome back to Fellowship!

Our guest today is Brother Dave Vargas, Junior Warden at Wautoma Lodge and our Chaplain over at Lake. Almost exactly a year after his first appearance, he's back, and this one was worth the wait. We get into some great traveling experiences, take a look at gamification in Masonry, and a whole lot more.

So lace up those traveling shoes, find a lodge, shoot an email to your Grand Secretary (duh), and get out there. It is time for Fellowship.

Welcome back to Fellowship.

When you walked into that lodge room for the first time, what were you actually looking for? Most men can't answer that question. But the hunger was real.

This week Matt and Andrew get into the initiation hunger, why modern men are starving for rites of passage, what the Masonic degrees were built to provide, and whether years in the officer line helps a brother do the inner work or quietly replaces it.

Wilmshurst shows up. Things get a little philosophical. It's a good one.

One laugh, one lesson at a time.

Welcome back to fellowship!

This week, our Brosts Matt and Andrew wander headfirst into the world of AI and start asking the important questions… like “should this thing be helping run a lodge?” and “why is it better at writing emails than we are?”

From drafting communications and building education to brainstorming ideas and generally making lodge life a little smoother, the brosts break down how they’re actually using AI in the real world, and in their lodge.

So open up your AI, ask it how its day was, slowly realize how kind and sensitive it is, realize that it loves everything you do, begin to fall in love with it… and then hear Andrew screaming in the back of your head, “NEVER FORGET IT IS NOT PEOPLE.”!!!

Because it is time for fellowship.

P.S. We asked AI what Little Debbie cake Andrew is as well...  "Andrew is a Swiss Roll—looks simple at first glance, but give him five minutes and suddenly you’re dealing with layers, spirals, and a suspicious amount of depth for a guy that just came out of a gas station.

Welcome Back to Fellowship! 

In this special role reversal episode of Time For Fellowship with Matt and Andrew, Matt takes the interviewer’s chair and puts Andrew, currently serving as Worshipful Master of Lake Lodge #189, in the hot seat. 

Three months into his year in the East, Andrew reflects on the realities of leading a lodge, including expectations, surprises, and lessons learned along the way. From managing lodge dynamics to setting the tone for the year, nothing is off the table. 

The conversation explores the importance of the progressive line, how leadership is developed and tested, and what it really means to serve as Master in today’s Masonic landscape. 

So loosen up your hats, light your gavels on fire, and assume the fetal position, because it’s time for fellowship with Andrew.

The bros are back from their travels and ready to return to our regularly scheduled Masonic mischief.

This episode features a very special guest, Worshipful Brother Jared Atkins from That Other Masonic Podcast. You may remember we previously had his co-host, W:. B:. Todd Whaley, join us in Season 2, Episode 12, and we have been looking forward to having Jared in the hot seat ever since.

Not only is this a fantastic conversation, but it also marks the first time Jared has been on the other side of the podcast microphone, so naturally we made sure to keep him on his toes.

So sit back, and relax, because we are sharing fellowship with that other masonic podcast.

Welcome back to Fellowship.

Episode 3 continues our adventure at the Conference of Grand Masters of North America, where Matt & Andrew are still stationed at their little table with microphones, doing our best impression of legitimate podcast professionals.

For four days the conference gathered some of the sharpest Masonic minds from across the continent. And for reasons we still do not fully understand, many of them wandered over, sat down, and started talking with us.

In this episode the conversations keep rolling. You will hear more stories, perspectives, and thoughtful reflections on the Craft from brothers who care deeply about its past, present, and future.

Also present: coffee, laughter, the occasional moment where we forget what question we were asking. 

Pull up a chair. The microphones are still on.
