261: Anger, Blind Faith & Fancy Catholic Words w/Fr. Anthony Sciarappa

Taylor Schroll — Wed, 13 Oct 2021 01:00:00 -0500

Taylor Schroll & 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!

256: Foundations, Salvation & Storytelling w/Kathryn Whitaker

Taylor Schroll — Wed, 08 Sep 2021 01:00:00 -0500

Taylor drove all the way to Liv's house to record this episode in her home studio. The kick off the show with Chicken Soup for the Schroll: sharing stories of times that God did something awesome for them in their childhood/teen years. They talk about the importance of remembering and sharing what God has done in your life.

Kathryn Whitaker was also in studio and Taylor had a bone to pick with her :) But the three of them shared some things that are anchors or foundations for them as people that keep them strong during even the toughest of times.

To close out the show, Taylor tries a segment about how salvation would work in the multiverse and Liv wanted nothing to do with it. So Taylor tried to pivot and talk about death bed conversions, especially for people who did horrible things and Liv didn't like that idea either lolol.

Super fun episode that we really hope you enjoy! We definitely all did being together in the studio :)

254: Lukewarm, Betrothals & Nickelback w/Fr. Anthony Sciarappa

Taylor Schroll — Wed, 25 Aug 2021 01:00:00 -0500

We have all heard that we should be like God in every way. But Taylor says there are certain times that we shouldn't and shares one of those with Fr. Anthony to kick off the show.

In the second segment, our priest asks Taylor to compare and contrast two prayers for engaged couples. It shows the pure weirdness and beauty of Catholicism.

Finally, Taylor makes the claim that he can make a spiritual point out of Nickelback's hit "Photograph." Do you think he pulled it off?!?!

237: Worth, Prayer, Friends & Integrity w/Liv Harrison

Taylor Schroll — Wed, 28 Apr 2021 01:00:00 -0500

Liv Harrison is back on the show with Taylor as they discuss how much a human life is worth. We often hear that every life is worth everything, but is it really? Intriguing discussion about the duality of man.

Next, they talk about friendship and integrity. First, how we are all friends with people we don't agree with on everything and that's actually better than agreeing on everything. Also, they talk about how Taylor and Liv on air can be different than off air. Is that lying or a lack of integrity? Or is it something else?

Finally, Taylor shares a recent breakthrough in his spiritual life after reading a new book by Blessed is She.(don't worry, we explain why he was reading it)
Enjoy!

228: Yelling at God, New Game & Hypothetical Sin w/Fr. Anthony Sciarappa

Taylor Schroll — Wed, 24 Feb 2021 01:00:00 -0600

Taylor yells at God. Fr. Anthony tries to help.

Taylor recently watched a clip of "The Chosen" that he really connected with and gets down to the nitty gritty of why he stays Catholic.

In the second segment, the guys play a new game with the help of PodDecks. These are random questions that they haven't seen and have to answer on the show. It led to some good and unexpected conversation.

The final segment may just be our best segment of the year. They introduce another new game called "Hypothetical Sin." Taylor shares a story that he may or may not have been involved in(involving the cops) and asks if what he did was a sin.

Thanks for listening!

Taylor Schroll — Wed, 28 Oct 2020 11:00:00 -0500

The show kicks off with Taylor sharing the story of two football games that looked very similar on the scoreboard but were very different experiences for him and his players. It made Taylor realize the unhealthy mindset he's had lately(psst....you might have it to)

In the second segment, Allison shares her story of adoption: the beauty, the struggles and the lessons. This is the first tim her and Taylor have discussed it publicly and it gives a big insight into who Allison is. She also shares some of the nuggets of wisdom she's learned through the process.

Finally, Taylor shares how different he treats his new car from his old one and what that says about how we view ourselves.
