  <description>Allison Sullivan joins Taylor as he shares how podcasting has broken him in two ways: one during Mass and the other in normal conversations. They also discuss their thoughts on soccer during the World Cup, a difficult story from a spelling bee(didn't see that one coming) and some overall thoughts on dealing with anxiety and seasonal depression. 
We're not therapists but we hope you and enjoy our honest conversation with the signature Forte Catholic laughter through the pain ;)

  <description>Amanda Vernon came to town and cohosted with Taylor this week. The show kicked off as they shared crazy travel stories, odd dating/breakup stories(including one of them dating a future priest) and strange marriage insights.
Next, they talk about their vastly different singing careers(one being successful and the other being Taylor). This leads to a conversation about nervousness, overcoming it and the comfort that comes with practice.
