Traditional Catholic Audio

Charlie Goodall, well on his way to baptism in the Catholic faith, sat down with me to discuss and give some perspectives on his journey into the Catholic faith, from the first time he approached a Church with the purpose of seeking God, to the online virtual Catechism classes he has been taking. The audio resource Charlie refers to in the discussion can be found in the following link https://fsspx.asia/en/cat-ex. Enjoy!

We wrap up our chat on movies with a quick comment on the classic, A Man for All Seasons, and some  comments on contemporary evangelisation.
We then dive into the old testament Mesopotamia, to talk about wines originating from the ancient lands of Georgia, Turkey and Armenia. Enjoy! 

Tim Erbacher grew up on a farm in Toowoomba and later became a mechanical engineer. His Catholic faith was a constant in his life from his childhood through to the present. Tune into the Lounge Room to hear Tim's recount of growing up a Catholic, his formative years and the Catholic he is today.

Chris, Tam and I give some movie recommendations that we hope you can enjoy, from classics to cult movies, box office breakers to B-grade garbage  - whether the good, the bad or the absolutely ugly, hopefully some recommendations that all can enjoy. No shortage of movies with good Catholic themes, plus some movies just for fun. Enjoy!

Jason Kelly joins me  to discuss overcoming doubt and trials and maintaining faith in Catholicism, in times when one's faith is challenged by circumstances and society. It was a privilege to interview Jason, and I hope you enjoy the show. 

When all was said and done we decided that it was probably worth getting out of bed and getting stuck into the new year. Join us back in the Lounge Room where we discuss Christmas  and New Year celebrations, Covid-19 and the world as it is with masks, and - much more importantly -  books!

I am joined by Chris and Joe Sudlow to compare memories of Christmases past, discussing the current Christmas environment, and to share some thoughts on getting the most out of Christmas.

I was joined by Tam Martinez  - wine enthusiast, traveler and devoted Catholic - to talk about Tam's Catholic journey. Tam shares some fun facts about the Portuguese wine landscape and we discuss the lessons that can be drawn from the humble grape vine and applied  in our lives as Catholics. 

Is there space for only one hundred and forty four thousand people in Heaven? Are we all tied to our predestined fates, irrespective of our choices and free will? Join Father Joseph Ockerse and I as we discuss the theme of predestination, the Church's teachings and the application it can and should have in our lives

Pierre Boralevi joins me in the Lounge Room to talk about how he found traditional Catholicism, his love of literature and beauty and the complexity of the Catholic landscape today. Faith has always had a central place in his life and over the years his understanding of it deepened ultimately leading him to make the daunting and sometimes lonely journey to the Traditional Latin Mass. Pierre believes that the best way to navigate religious complexity is with humility and to develop a love of beauty, history and the richness of Catholicism.
