Bill welcomes Dan and Kevin back to the studio, and the chaos starts before the mics are even hot—Dan sends a voice message from traffic, setting the tone for a hilarious take on construction season and never-ending delays. From there, things get deep as Bill brings up psychologist Dr. John Gottman’s eerie ability to predict divorce with 93.6% accuracy. The crew dives into the “Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse” in relationships—criticism, contempt, defensiveness, and stonewalling—and whether our facial expressions might actually reveal more than our words.
In a more somber and reflective segment, the recent passing of Pope Francis brings Fr. John Huber C.S.B.—Kevin’s former theology and French teacher from Aquinas—onto the podcast! They explore what happens behind the scenes at the Vatican after a pope passes, the significance of the papal enclave, and what qualities the next pope should embody in today’s world.
Switching gears to playoff excitement, former NHL player and current Rochester Americans assistant coach Nathan Paetsch joins the show. He shares stories from his playing days, winning the Calder Cup, and what he’s learned in his new role behind the bench—including a surprising first coaching gig that had nothing to do with hockey!
Things wrap up with a strange but funny song about flatulence, one of Bill’s most outrageous relationship stories, and a competitive round of “Name That Tune – Closest to the Pin.” Play along and see if you can outscore the gang in this jam-packed, unpredictable episode!
