  <description>Chris Bartlett cohosts and shares with Taylor some of the wholesome media he's been watching and Taylor does likewise. They discuss Ted Lasso, Welcome to Wrexham, Everybody Loves Raymond and more borderline family shows.
Then the guys play a long lost Forte game called "Read My Lips." They take turns muting and guessing the Super Bowl themed words that the other is saying and guessing by only reading lips. And of course, they make every word connect with a Catholic concept (many rather loosely lol)
To close the show, they dive into the talk from Msgr. Shea at the FOCUS conference. This talk has swept the nation and seems to really be connecting with people. Chris praises it while Taylor has some mixed feelings about it and questions why the talk worked so well. It's a great conversations that challenges many of both hosts assumptions. We hope you enjoy!

  <description>Guest Cohost Chris Bartlett joins Taylor to discuss the frustration of not being given parameters within which to work, how that works when they're invited to speak somewhere &amp;amp; topics they typically don't share about. For example, Taylor doesn't usually speak about Mary because it isn't his strongest topic, but he tests out some new material on Chris to see if he should expand his horizons or stick with the status quo (que High School Musical)
Then, Taylor finally has a worthy challenger for Freestyle Preaching. The guys take turns giving 60 second sermons on the spot where they have to include three random words given to them by their challenger. Can these two guys who have been giving random youth ministry talks for decades rise to the occasion?
Finally, Chris bring up a situation that got brought up in his family in regards to nostalgia. This leads to a conversation about the Care Bears &amp;amp; Taylor has to hold back the tears. Because of the Care Bears? You'll have to listen to the end to find out ;)

  <description>We hosted a men's retreat in Southern Louisiana and it was an awesome experience! We share graces &amp;amp; play a hot takes game in a live episode :)
Taylor &amp;amp; eight other guys spent the weekend in a beautiful lake house in southern Louisiana and had a great time! We spent the weekend in prayer, fellowship, drinks, great food, a trip to the beach and some great game time! 
We decided to record an episode at the lake house together with a whole cast of characters. In today's episode, you'll hear some of the things that the Lord was doing in the hearts and minds of the men on the retreat and also get to join in our fun as we play "Mezzo/Piano/Forte", our hot takes about Catholicism game.
We hope you enjoy this episode! If you'd like more info about our retreats, head to https://www.fortecatholic.com/retreats

Will Hickl joins the show to share about his Catholic record label Novum Records and to share some of their Christmas album. As this is our Thanksgiving episode, we know many people start decorating for Christmas sometime this week, including listening to Christmas music so we have a great selection of Advent/Christmas songs to help you prepare the way for Jesus over the next month.
Happy Thanksgiving from all of us at Forte Catholic!

  <description>Forte Catholic has a tremendous new game you can play online! We have made a bracket of 64 Catholic Ministry leaders from across the nation to ask one question..."Who would win in a boxing match?"
This show is about two things:
1. Introducing the Ministry Madness Bracket with help from our producer Jake and Becka Landry who helped with the creation of the bracket. We also have guest appearances by some of the contenders like Chris Bartlett and Tony Vasinda.
I interview Chris Bartlett about his work with Next Level Ministry and how we can have the best Holy Week possible!
