  <description>Many Catholics are struggling to find a spouse in today's modern dating culture, but Candid is a new fun way to meet people that blends the old school conversation with the new school technology available to us. 
This week you get not one but TWO Taylors and we are joined by the founder of Candid, an online dating site that plays matchmaker for Catholics through their online speed dating platform. I love this idea! It gets past the simple swipe left/swipe right monotony to having real conversations with other single Catholics to see if there's a spark. If you're single, I highly recommend Candid! If you're married like me, this is a great suggestion for the Catholics in your life looking for love!

I love this idea! It gets past the simple swipe left/swipe right monotony to having real conversations with other single Catholics to see if there&#39;s a spark. If you&#39;re single, I highly recommend Candid! If you&#39;re married like me, this is a great suggestion for the Catholics in your life looking for love! </p>

Then, Fr. Anthony &amp;amp; Aaron Weber join in for the second segment. Having Aaron as our Christmas guest is a yearly tradition since 2018! This year, we discuss holiday traditions, Aaron's Comedy Central special this year, &amp;amp; Father Anthony's pastoral heart. Check out more from Aaron at https://aaronwebercomedy.com/
Kathryn Whitaker joins Taylor for the final segment as they debate "Mary Did You Know?" Choosing a side on whether she knew or not has become a yearly Catholic online tradition &amp;amp; Taylor &amp;amp; Kathryn are on opposite sides of the debate. They hash it out and hope to sway you to their side.

  <description>Aaron Weber, Father Anthony and Taylor unite for their annual Christmas episode! They debate a theory about comedy that Father Anthony has and Aaron shares the funniest moral dilemma he found himself in that we've ever heard! Check out Aaron's comedy at http://aaronwebercomedy.com/.
In the rest of the episode, Taylor &amp;amp; Fr. Anthony touch base on how their Advent went, share some Christmas insights and Taylor shares about a funny announcement made before Mass at his parish.
To close the show, they do their new segment "Plane Theology" where Taylor puts Fr. Anthony on the spot with theology questions he got no prep time for. This week's topics include if the Apostles were baptized, if demons can hear our thoughts and if Mary knew.
Merry Christmas y'all from the Forte Catholic family!

Taylor shares a few food takes &amp;amp; reactions to some odd news stories with Jon that leads to a conversation about a Scripture verse Taylor has struggled with: Ask, Seek, Knock. They try to figure out how that verse works for seemingly unanswered prayers.

  <itunes:subtitle>Taylor has a lot of off-the-wall questions for Fr. Anthony Sciarappa from married priests, to weird Catholic spelling choices to random thoughts on Heaven. It's quite a fun journey as Taylor tries to entrap Fr. Anthony with his questions. They also play a new game that is either the best thing or worse thing we have ever done.</itunes:subtitle>

  <description>Taylor has a lot of off-the-wall questions for Fr. Anthony Sciarappa. How do celibate priests feel about married priests? Why do Catholics have to be so weird sometimes(ex. misspell normal words)? And finally, Taylor tries to trap Fr. Anthony in a question about Heaven. Fun!
They also introduce a brand new game that you'll either love or hate called "Read my Lips." They take turns explaining basic Catholic terms to each other, but the twist is, the other person has their volume turned all the way down so it's all based on reading the lips of the other person. This game was hilarious to play. We're interested to hear if you love or hate it lol.
Thanks for listening! Y'all rock! :)

    <![CDATA[<p>Taylor has a lot of off-the-wall questions for Fr. Anthony Sciarappa. How do celibate priests feel about married priests? Why do Catholics have to be so weird sometimes(ex. misspell normal words)? And finally, Taylor tries to trap Fr. Anthony in a question about Heaven. Fun!</p>

<p>They also introduce a brand new game that you&#39;ll either love or hate called &quot;Read my Lips.&quot; They take turns explaining basic Catholic terms to each other, but the twist is, the other person has their volume turned all the way down so it&#39;s all based on reading the lips of the other person. This game was hilarious to play. We&#39;re interested to hear if you love or hate it lol.</p>

<p>Thanks for listening! Y&#39;all rock! :)</p>

  <description>Taylor Schroll &amp;amp; Fr. Anthony Sciarappa kick off the show by sharing about their fun anger management issues. Funny stories of when rage and anger boiled, the outcomes and what strategies they've learned to quell their rage.
Next they bring back a fun game creatively called "fancy Catholic words." Fr. Anthony gives Taylor random Catholic words no one has ever heard and Taylor has to define them. Hilarity ensues AND you will learn random Catholic facts you can use to impress your two friends.
Finally, they have a conversation around the topic "Is faith a blind leap?" Is it? How do reason and faith correlate? We hope you enjoy this conversation. Have a great week y'all!

  <description>Taylor got his beard trimmed for the first time since the pre-covid era and it was...not what he expected! Terrifying and embarrassing! 
Fr. Anthony received mail two weeks ago from a listener of the show with the explicit instructions not to open until on the air with Taylor. It was one of the greatest reveals of show history and was fodder to make fun of our favorite priest for an entire segment! We also learned more about a lesser known saint we should all appreciate more after this segment.
Finally, Father shares his secret talent of Taekwondo, Taylor wants to fight and then rants about spiritual bouquets. Wild show! Enjoy :)

  <description>Jon "Bearded" Blevins cohosts and Taylor kicks off the show with more Spanish. This time, he's interpreting a son he once sang very differently than what the Scriptures intended and it leads to a convo about God being in control and our free will.
Comedian David Studebaker joins the show to share his conversion story from Buddhism to Catholicism at 18, being a Catholic in comedy and what he finds funny about some aspects of Catholicism.
Finally, Jon shares his weight loss success while Taylor lets us know how he feels like Sisyphus more and more each day.

<p>Finally, Jon shares his weight loss success while Taylor lets us know how he feels like Sisyphus more and more each day.</p>

  <description>Taylor and Fr. Anthony Sciarappa both had recent experiences with the Church not keeping up with the times. And we don't mean we want the Church's Traditions to change, we mean we should be able to scan and email something instead of having to deliver a hand copy in person. That kind of thing. 
Taylor also shares about his recent experience of returning to Confession and Mass for the first time since the pandemic began and how it wasn't quite what he expected and then game that was created to make Fr. Anthony uncomfortable! Freestyle Preaching is our new game where each host gives the other three random words that they then have to include in a 60 second sermon on the spot. Hilarious! But maybe you can also be inspired? Who knows.
We also rant about people scolding each other in Church, how we've somehow made "like" mean more than "love" as we have gotten older in a really odd way, the Saint who was canonized twice &amp;amp; weddings we went to where we didn't know anyone.

  <description>Merry Christmas from the Forte Catholic crew!
We start the show off with a prank on Fr. Anthony! We continue by discussing how to keep Christmas going with a new understanding of peace and what the baby King means to us today.
This episode, we are joined by comedian Aaron Weber! Taylor got to see him perform live on his tour with John Crist, thought he was hilarious and invited him on the show. Now that it's not just Taylor &amp;amp; his friends making jokes, this is one you don't want to miss! 
In the final segment, we are joined by local youth minister Daniel Loch as he shares a heartwarming story about how his church did something extremely special for a young family. The story is inspirational and challenges all of us on what it means to be church.

<p>This episode, we are joined by comedian Aaron Weber! Taylor got to see him perform live on his tour with John Crist, thought he was hilarious and invited him on the show. Now that it&#39;s not just Taylor &amp; his friends making jokes, this is one you don&#39;t want to miss! </p>

<p>In the final segment, we are joined by local youth minister Daniel Loch as he shares a heartwarming story about how his church did something extremely special for a young family. The story is inspirational and challenges all of us on what it means to be church.</p>

I am also joined by "The Catholic Hack" Joe McClane. He shares his amazing life story about how God completely changed his life and what he learned about Fatherhood through it.

  <description>We did something special for the 25th episode of the show. Instead of having a guest for 18 minutes in the second segment like normal, I had Rose Sweet as my guest co-host for the entire hour! 
The primary reason for having her on the show was to talk about the difficult subject of marriage, divorce and annulments. She has been a speaker and author on the topic for over 25 years and has great personal insight to go along with her deep knowledge of Catholic theology on the issue. 
So whether you are a single person wanting to get married at some point, struggling in a current relationship or have felt the pain of divorce in family or friends, this podcast will help you focus on the truths and mercy of Catholic teaching as well as dispel common misconceptions about the church's view on divorce and annulment.
