  <description>We PROMISE you will never think about relics the same way again...for better or worse lol
This week we get into the WEIRD side of Catholicism. Taylor has never thought too deeply about relics but now that he has, he has some questions for our friendly neighborhood priest. Learn all you ever wanted to know about 400% more in the first half of today's show.
In the next segment, Taylor asks Fr. Anthony how we would handle a list of very strange confessions. This conversation was sparked by seeing the confessional in some movies, tv shows and video games that may or may not understand the Sacrament. Enjoy!

  <description>Fr. Anthony gets off an all-time rant, Taylor ponders changing his stance on burying St. Joseph to sell his house &amp;amp; asks the good priest some confession themed theological questions.
Working in the Church can be difficult. Fr. Anthony is proving that with the week he is currently having! He goes off about how crazy parishioners can be and Taylor just sits there with a stupid big grin on his face.
Then, Taylor gives an update on his house not selling and how it may be time for his to reconsider his previous stance on a popular superstition and/or Catholic practice in order to sell the house more quickly.

  <description>We kick this week's show off with the State of Sciarappa address. Fr. Anthony lets us know how things have been going in his world: including being pastor for a week, lighting heavy things &amp;amp; more! Taylor shares a hot take about homilies that may stir the pot a little bit! It's a topic we all struggle with but often don't talk about.
Then, they introduce a brand new game revolving around scripture memorization. How much do Catholics know about the Bible! We will find out as our two contestants take turn narrating famou Scripture passages while the other has to fill in the blanks. We hope you enjoy this hilarious new game! Play along and let us know how you did!

  <description>Last summer, Taylor got a disease most commonly associated with teenagers: mono. This year, the Lord decided it was time to go the opposite direction and give him an old man disease in his 30's. Awesome!
Fr. Anthony was in quite the car accident! Hear as he explains this wild story involving yelling, a bike, shattered window &amp;amp; the police.
Taylor closes out the show by sharing that his anniversary trip to see comedian Pete Holmes &amp;amp; stay in a nice hotel was not going to be stopped by a mere hurricane! He and his wife braved the eye of the storm of Hurricane Beryl in order to enjoy themselves lol.

  <description>Live from Pittsburgh!
Taylor visits Fr. Anthony and they record from the rectory. Taylor suggests seven Catholic things and asks Father whether they are more helpful for evangelization or more of a hinderance. They agree on a few, disagree on other but have good conversations about all.
Then, in honor of last year's discussion on the morality of the zombie apocalypse, this year Taylor has a new scenario where we explore the grey area of Catholic morality: being stranded at sea. This is inspired by a true story of men stranded at sea after killer whales attacked their boat and the incredible yet horrifying story of their survival.

  <description>A total eclipse is as rare as an incredible episode of this show. Both happened this week!
Taylor and Fr. Anthony start the show by sharing a few things in their lives/parishes that are going really well, and a few that could use work.
Then, Taylor gets Fr. Anthony ranting about his favorite topic: THE MOON! With the rare eclipse happening this week, Taylor asks our good priest if his thoughts on the moon have changed. (Narrator: They haven't)
Finally, Taylor has an observation from his lived experience that MIGHT contradict some popular theology. He talks through it with Fr. Anthony to see if he's crazy or the other people are!

  <itunes:subtitle>LENT IS HAPPENING! The suffering continues in a true comedy of errors for today's two hosts. They commiserate about the last couple weeks &amp; then play a brand new game to try and stave off despair. They close the show with a deep discussion about what transubstantiation actually does.</itunes:subtitle>

  <description>Taylor &amp;amp; Fr. Anthony Sciarappa jump right in to discuss their frustrating and difficult past couple of weeks. Taylor can only laugh as he shares the comedy of errors occuring in his life. 
Next, they play a brand new game to try and lighten the mood. The game was stolen from social media and we're not exactly sure how it went. You'll either love it or hate it! lol
Then to close the show, they get into a theological discussion of the accidents and substance of the Eucharist. Taylor thought he knew what all this meant until he thought about it for a while. The more he thought, the more confused he became(typical smh). Fr. Anthony answers his questions and shares his expertise in an attempt to help Taylor (and hopefully you) understand one of the central mysteries of our faith.

  <description>Fr. Anthony has convinced Taylor to watch wrestling for the second time, and this time it's a family affair! At Fr. Anthony's behest, the entire Schroll family sat down to watch the Royal Rumble and it was a HIT! They discuss how this event really won over these non-wrestling fans and what this experience teaches us about how we can better evangelize.
In the next segment, Taylor shares about a recent podcast he listened to about "pilot voice", when all airline pilots sound the same. They discuss how this extends to priests in homilies and maybe even Catholic speakers/podcasters. It's a fun discussion about conformity, making people feel safe &amp;amp; some bonus rare voice acting work by our hosts.

  <itunes:subtitle>Taylor has some confessions to make! Two extremely repressed (for good reason) memories just resurfaced and he wanted to share them with you &amp; Fr. Anthony. They also debate which of them are cooler &amp; what coolness has to do with living out our faith. They also talk about how old our Church is, some of the things about it that have made it stand the test of time that might also be the same reasons we get frustrated with it &amp; Fr. Anthony shares some good ol' fancy Catholic words that Taylor (and you!) have to guess what they mean.</itunes:subtitle>

  <description>Taylor has some confessions to make! Two extremely repressed (for good reason) memories just resurfaced and he wanted to share them with you &amp;amp; Fr. Anthony. They both involve musical performances from Jr High/High School. Fr. Anthony is TRULY shocked by one of them! 
They also debate which of them are cooler. After hearing stories about both of their childhoods, they discuss "coolness" and what makes someone cool in childhood &amp;amp; how it may be different than in adulthood. They also discuss what our faith has to do with "coolness" and a revelation Taylor had that shouldn't be a revelation.
Finally, they talk about how old our Church is, some of the things about it that have made it stand the test of time that might also be the same reasons we get frustrated with it. Fr. Anthony shares some good ol fancy Catholic words that Taylor (and you!) have to guess what they mean.
This was a really fun episode to record and we hope that you enjoy it! :)

  <description>Fr. Anthony is back to discuss the lost years of Jesus with Taylor. There is ONE verse that covers the majority of Jesus' life from when He is a teen until His public ministry. We talk about what this verse means for our own spiritual growth &amp;amp; some Father gives some practical tips.
They also discuss one of Taylor's leadership heroes, Zig Ziglar. He played a large role in Taylor's formation in college so they discuss some of his most famous quotes.
Then finally, the moment you've all been waiting for...Fr. Anthony does the hot ones challenge. While he eats progressively hotter hot sauces, Taylor asks him questions about fire in the Bible &amp;amp; gets his thoughts on some Catholic hot takes.

  <description>When Taylor visited Fr. Anthony in Pittsburgh, Father made him watch wrestling for the first time and it was an...interesting experience to say the least. They talk about how it was going well for a while until...well...then it wasn't lol.
The guys introduce a new game: Catholic Word Association. They have some ho-hum answers but some that get them all riled up that they discuss for a while. A wide gamut of topics!
Finally, Taylor shares some wild claims about himself &amp;amp; Jesus. Comparing yourself to Jesus ALWAYS goes well. He also makes claims about Jesus' liturgical preferences, His views on lights in Church, healing ministry &amp;amp; Catholic conferences. It's a blast!

  <description>Fr. Anthony is back from a well-deserved family vacation and joins Taylor to share about the important of rejuvenation, especially for priests. He talks about how changing up the normal routine, spending time with family and simplifying life is good. 
Taylor shares about a recent Sunday gospel that he struggled with. Jesus says his yoke is easy and his burden light, but it often feels heavy. He shares a hilarious experience he had with the homily that day and Fr. Anthony shares his insight into how Jesus can lighten our burdens.
Finally, Taylor has two questions about when a priest is In Persona Christi &amp;amp; when he isn't particularly during the Mass. What if a priest says something crazy during a homily? Is the priest as Jesus eating Jesus' body in the Eucharist. New and strange questions that we enjoyed exploring the answers to. We hope you enjoy this episode :)

  <description>Fr. Anthony &amp;amp; Taylor kick off the show with some Italian stereotypes &amp;amp; two great moments for God's chosen people in the Old Testament: The parting of the Red Sea &amp;amp; the Battle of Jericho. We promise you've never heard the Jericho story like this!
Next, Fr. Anthony actually did some show prep so that we can play Fancy Catholic Words. The good priest gives Taylor some words that only fancy Catholics would know and he has to guess what they mean. Can you do any better than Taylor did?
They close the show with a conversation about leadership, failure &amp;amp; improving after Taylor was inspired by a recent Malcolm Gladwell story.

  <description>Fr. Anthony joins Taylor for a discussion on what we should be focusing on during the extended Easter season. Taylor also shares a strange insight about the people who grew up around Jesus during the "lost years" of his childhood/teen/young adult years.
Taylor also asks Fr. Anthony about indulgences: 
-What are they? 
-Why the bad rap?
-Are they worth the confusion?
They also discuss the morality of addiction, especially when addiction leads to other sins. It is a complicated and nuanced discussion on sin, culpability &amp;amp; the depths of the moral life.

  <description>Fr. Anthony and Taylor start the podcast in a brand new way that you could have never seen coming! Taylor shares a story about a new Church he went to that distributed Communion in a different way than he is used to which led to some awkwardness, questions and ultimately a great experience.
Taylor also approaches Fr. Anthony with a dilemma about not wanting to pray bold prayers. He was recently in a couple of situations where people wanted him to pray for big healings or miracles and he just couldn't for some reason. Was it prudence? Fear? Both? Fr. Anthony has some great advice!
Finally, they discuss Fr. Anthony's favorite topic: LAY PEOPLE! Taylor has some questions about how lay people's role of priest, prophet and king should play out in a parish/diocese that has ordained men also being priest, prophet and king. Where is the line between what God has called me to do and still being respectful of the structure God put in place in the hierarchy of the Church?
We really enjoyed recording this episode and hope you enjoy watching!

  <itunes:subtitle>Happy New Year! I'm terrible at looking back at the past and seeing all the good things God did in my life. I'm usually focused on the present or working towards building a better future that I forget to be thankful for what has already happened. That is why every year, we do a "State of the Forte" as our first episode of the new year to see all the cool things we experienced together.</itunes:subtitle>

  <description>Happy New Year!
I'm terrible at looking back at the past and seeing all the good things God did in my life. I'm usually focused on the present or working towards building a better future that I forget to be thankful for what has already happened. That is why every year, we do a "State of the Forte" as our first episode of the new year to see all the cool things we experienced together.
In today's episode, Taylor looks at the highlights of the show from the past year, counts down our top ten episodes, our top ten moments and shares how the show has grown. We also review the additions to our YouTube channel in 2022 and the rest of the work we did through producing other great Catholic podcasts and our events.
Taylor also takes a few moments to address the passing of one of his heroes Pope Benedict XVI and his thoughts on the Damar Hamlin situation from this week's Monday Night Football.
We hope you enjoy looking back at the past year with us. Blessings on your new year!

  <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!

  <description>Taylor shares some fun stories about being mistaken for an elderly woman and how he handled losing a contest in elementary school. He also chats with Fr. Anthony about forsaking sin. As Catholics, we know the importance of confessing our sins but a lot of us have gotten complacent in our call to forsake our sins.
We also introduce a new segment called "Plane Theology." Popes have been writing encyclicals for years after careful research and revisions. But in modern times, our leaders are often asked questions on the spot like in interviews or on planes. So Taylor asks Fr. Anthony a series of theology questions he's been wondering about recently with absolutely no prep for the good priest. The topics include Jerusalem, infant baptism and hiccups. Enjoy!

  <description>Taylor Schroll &amp;amp; Fr. Anthony Sciarappa have a conversation about holy and unholy things. They discuss what sacrilege is, Taylor tries to toe the line. They also share that a recent hit song might possibly be the most sacrilegious pop song EVER!
Next, they discuss the SURPRISING origins of the term "Yolo" and how it actually lines up with the Christian notion of remembering that we only have one life and should be acting accordingly. 
Finally, they play the "imitate, intercess or ignore" game with saints who's feast days are in October and November. Laugh along as we learn about saints in the silliest of ways. Enjoy!

  <description>Taylor &amp;amp; Fr. Anthony have a HUGE announcement in this week's episode! But first, Taylor has to complain about the flooding in his house and how he blames Fr. Anthony for it. 
Once he is done complaining, they announce that Forte Catholic is going on pilgrimage to Rome next summer! We want you all to join us for a wonderful trip to Rome, Assisi, Florence &amp;amp; Tuscany in June of 2023. More info at ForteCatholic.com/travel.
Following this big announcement, Taylor follows it up with another announcement: he is now a cult leader! Well, in a video game at least...
He tells Fr. Anthony about it and asks if it was sinful or bad for him to be playing this game that clearly has some things in it that oppose our faith.
They end the show with a silly hodgepodge of topics involving pipe organs, the alphabet, maydays and more. We hope you enjoy this episode! :)

  <description>Fr. Anthony Sciarappa &amp;amp; Taylor Schroll share their thoughts on last week's episode 300 celebration. They also discuss the love they received from the episode &amp;amp; the best piece of hate mail the show has ever gotten! 
Taylor shares the story about the Sunday Mass he went to on vacation about how it made him feel like he was in the Matrix! Everything about the experience was just a bit odd or strange. He shares the strange story with Fr. Anthony to get his thoughts on the matter.
Finally, they play the "Is This a Sin?" game where Taylor presents hypothetical scenarios that may or may not be from his personal life and asks if the decisions made were sinful or not. This may be Fr. Anthony's favorite segment we ever do on the show. We hope you enjoy it! :)

  <description>All the cohosts together to reminisce, laugh and annoy one another ;)
The Forte Catholic hosts unite for a rare episode recorded with all of them involved! This leads to a lot of hilarity, great stories and a fair amount of insanity. They kick off the episode sharing some favorite memories of the show and how much they've all changed since it launched in 2016.
Next, they play a "get to know the cohosts" game where they each submitted random facts about themselves to Taylor before the show. He presents them to the group and they have to guess which host that statement belonged to. We learned a lot of strange, random and concerning things about our fellow hosts.
Finally, they play a staple game of the show: Life Verse. They each have to pick a random verse from Scripture and apply it to one of the other hosts' lives. It's somehow a perfect combination of earnestness, spiritual depth &amp;amp; stupidity. 
We hope you enjoy this episode! :) Thanks for listening today and for all the support you've given us over the last 300 episodes. We love y'all! :)

A huge thanks to Paul George for getting this set up for us! We gathered at a beautiful ranch in the Texas Hill Country and spent four days praying, celebrating the Sacraments, skeet shooting, drinking, bonding and playing poker. It was the best of being a Catholic man :)

  <description>Fr. Anthony is still in Texas so he teams up with Taylor &amp;amp; Jon to discuss a wide variety of topics. The start off with a hilarious video that swept the Catholic internet last week of a priest sharing the most hilarious intercessions at Mass. This leads to a discussion of liturgical abuse and what we can do about it(and what Jon has already done!)
Next, Taylor posits that priest seminary formation takes way too long and yet often isn't enough. The three amigos put their heads together to try and find a middle ground solution.
To close the show, they discuss a recent interview with the awesome head coach of the Pittsburgh Steelers, Mike Tomlin. It's a story about how he held out one of his stars players from a game because it was what was best for the player. A true sign of leadership. And speaking of leadership...is Pope Francis retiring soon?!?!
We hope you enjoy this week's episode!

  <description>Father Anthony Sciarappa is spending the week in Texas with Taylor for vacation &amp;amp; a retreat they're going on together. They talk about how Taylor was berated for a grammatical error on last week's show &amp;amp; some highlights from Taylor's youth conference.
Then, they dare to tread the murky waters of Trinitarian theology. The Trinity is a mystery and Taylor has been scared to teach about it for years for many reasons. But he had to give a talk on it recently so he learned a lot but still has questions. Father Anthony explains how he has eluded heresy in his Trinitarian preaching.
Finally, they discuss the recent reversal of Roe V. Wade and how the Church has responded. They discuss hope(and the lack of it) and share how they've been feeling since the decision was released. 
We hope you enjoy this week's episode!

  <description>Fr. Anthony recently gave communion for 45 minutes straight at a Mass because he didn't have help. This drove Taylor crazy and makes him share a recent change to how he goes about life. He's tired of worrying about stepping on people's toes and he's just going to step up instead. (Not like in the movie Step Up though. He can't dance)
Then Fr. Anthony shares about two life changes he wants to make and Taylor isn't really on board with either: a consecration to Mary(which he has questions about) and a tattoo(which Taylor thinks is dumb for Fr. Anthony). It's quite a wild conversation.
Finally, Taylor asks Father Anthony small group questions from a recent retreat he led for High School students. Tune in to see how Fr. Anthony does!

  <itunes:subtitle>Happy Holy Week y'all! Here is our "Holy Weak" episode discussing our favorite(and most annoying) parts of Holy Week. We also discuss healing and if we should be asking for miraculous healings. And Fr. Harrison Ayre joins us to play our Freestyle Preaching game against his Clerically Speaking cohost, Fr. Anthony :)</itunes:subtitle>

  <description>We're back! After taking a week off due to Taylor having the plague, he and Fr. Anthony Sciarappa kick off our Holy Week episode by discussing healing. There are many stories of healing in the Scriptures but do they still happen today? Should we be asking for miraculous healings? What happens if we ask for healing and it doesn't come? They dive into a discussion on these deep issues.
In the next segment, Fr. Anthony is surprised to find out that this week's guest is none other than his Clerically Speaking cohost, Fr. Harrison Ayre. Fr. Harrison has been discussing preaching off the cuff more so Taylor invited him to challenge Fr. Anthony to our Freestyle Preaching game where they each take turns giving 60 second sermons but the catch is they have to include three random words that Taylor gives them. Priest vs. Priest preach-off. This is not a segment you want to miss!
Finally, Taylor and Fr. Anthony discuss their favorite parts of Holy Week: the veneration of the cross, welcoming people into the Church, etc. They also air some grievances about some of the things they'd like to nitpick about Holy Week. And to close it out, Fr. Anthony shares one of the strangest Holy Week customs Taylor has ever heard! Enjoy and have a blessed Holy Week!

    <![CDATA[<p>We&#39;re back! After taking a week off due to Taylor having the plague, he and Fr. Anthony Sciarappa kick off our Holy Week episode by discussing healing. There are many stories of healing in the Scriptures but do they still happen today? Should we be asking for miraculous healings? What happens if we ask for healing and it doesn&#39;t come? They dive into a discussion on these deep issues.</p>

<p>In the next segment, Fr. Anthony is surprised to find out that this week&#39;s guest is none other than his Clerically Speaking cohost, Fr. Harrison Ayre. Fr. Harrison has been discussing preaching off the cuff more so Taylor invited him to challenge Fr. Anthony to our Freestyle Preaching game where they each take turns giving 60 second sermons but the catch is they have to include three random words that Taylor gives them. Priest vs. Priest preach-off. This is not a segment you want to miss!</p>

<p>Finally, Taylor and Fr. Anthony discuss their favorite parts of Holy Week: the veneration of the cross, welcoming people into the Church, etc. They also air some grievances about some of the things they&#39;d like to nitpick about Holy Week. And to close it out, Fr. Anthony shares one of the strangest Holy Week customs Taylor has ever heard! Enjoy and have a blessed Holy Week!</p>

  <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! :)

He also feels vindicated by making Fr. Anthony play a new game he isn't good at. Payback for all the games Fr. Anthony has made Taylor look dumb in. Finally, Fr. Anthony gets vindication for looking dumb in said game by giving great answers to some tough questions about the priesthood and prayer. Enjoy!

  <description>Fr. Anthony cohosts our first show of 2022! Taylor shares the yearly "State of the Forte" with how the show did the previous year, top ten episodes and more! 
J.P. Quinn helps us kick off the year with some insanity with his hot takes segment "Forte, Mezzo, Piano" where he shares his takes &amp;amp; the hosts yell at him and tell him he's crazy.

  <itunes:subtitle>Our Christmas special is jammed packed this year! Jon Blevins cohosts 2 segments to discuss engagement vs. entertainment and the life lessons we learn from Santa. And as is our Christmas tradition, comedian Aaron Weber joins Taylor &amp; Fr. Anthony. They chat about his comedy and how tall Jesus &amp; Mary were.</itunes:subtitle>

  <description>Jon Blevins cohosts two segments of our Christmas special. He and Taylor hung out in person this week for only the second time ever. They chat about that &amp;amp; Jon's strange request. Taylor also shares his thoughts on being entertaining vs. being engaging and what that means for the Church. 
Next, Fr. Anthony and Aaron Weber join Taylor on the show for what has become an annual Christmas tradition! This is the 3rd year in a row that comedian Aaron Weber has been our guest for the Christmas episode. They discuss Aaron's big year of getting married, losing a ton of weight, his first standup special and more. They also tackle the age old Christmas season question of how tall Jesus and Mary were. 
Jon rejoins Taylor for the final segment to go through a list of life lessons we can learn from Santa. They're mostly silly with some good advice hidden in there. Merry Christmas from all of us here at Forte Catholic!

He also shares a question that he recently heard with Fr. Anthony for his thoughts: "Is it as important to read Vatican II as Scripture." An interesting discussion ensues.
Next, Fr. Anthony has a question. "Do good talks actually matter?" 
Finally, Taylor shares the best penance he's ever received and how happy it made him to be Catholic. Enjoy!

  <description>Fr. Anthony cohosts a fun show that kicks off with a discussion on how hard work pays off later. We often have to have times where we are putting in extra work in order to relieve our workload and have a better life later. The opposite is also true. If we don't do things we need to now, we will have to deal with the consequences later. He and Taylor chat about managing these seasons.
Next, they have a ton of fun with a meme that asks which biblical character you would choose to sit with in a cafeteria. They give the pros and cons to sitting at each table and ultimately decide who they would sit with. Their answers couldn't be any more different!
Finally, Taylor shares a story where he reflexively suggested a non-denominational Church in town to a couple instead of the Catholic Church. He immediately wondered why he did that, shares the situation with Fr. Anthony and asked what could have done better.
We hope you enjoy this week's show! Have a great week, friends!

  <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!

  <itunes:subtitle>Taylor has a lot of things to yell about and Fr. Anthony has some answers. They have a blast yelling about things that ultimately don't matter but just show how fun the oddities of Catholicism can be. Edmund Mitchell joins the show to talk about his new project making the catechism more easily approachable so we can dive into the richness of our faith.</itunes:subtitle>

  <description>Fr. Anthony cohosts a hilarious episode where Taylor comes in with a ton of things to yell about. They kick off with his thoughts on seminarians wearing collars, should seminarians be on social media &amp;amp; is religious life higher than the priesthood?!?! Fr. Anthony has all the answers.
Edmund Mitchell joins the show to share about his new project called Real + True. So many Catholics(including us) have never read or really used the Catechism all that much. This new project makes the Catechism less daunting and much easier to engage with. There is so much depth to our faith, the Catechism has that depth and Real + True brings it to you in a way that's fun and easy to use. Check it out at RealTrue.org. 
Taylor has more to yell about with Fr. Anthony. This time he shares how often people's personal devotions can get to a point where they're absurd and mostly just bothering those around them. We try to find a balance between honoring personal piety &amp;amp; not being a distraction to your neighbor. We have a lot of fun examples :)

    <![CDATA[<p>Fr. Anthony cohosts a hilarious episode where Taylor comes in with a ton of things to yell about. They kick off with his thoughts on seminarians wearing collars, should seminarians be on social media &amp; is religious life higher than the priesthood?!?! Fr. Anthony has all the answers.</p>

<p>Edmund Mitchell joins the show to share about his new project called Real + True. So many Catholics(including us) have never read or really used the Catechism all that much. This new project makes the Catechism less daunting and much easier to engage with. There is so much depth to our faith, the Catechism has that depth and Real + True brings it to you in a way that&#39;s fun and easy to use. Check it out at RealTrue.org. </p>

<p>Taylor has more to yell about with Fr. Anthony. This time he shares how often people&#39;s personal devotions can get to a point where they&#39;re absurd and mostly just bothering those around them. We try to find a balance between honoring personal piety &amp; not being a distraction to your neighbor. We have a lot of fun examples :)</p>

<p>We hope you enjoyed this episode! If so, please subscribe so you don&#39;t miss the next one :)</p>

  <description>Taylor brings the heat this week with some hot takes on kids in Mass, Martyrs and Satanists. Fr. Anthony isn't just along for the ride but tries to guide him back to sanity.
Parents often feel unwelcome in Mass with their little kids. There are often glares and "shushes" from other parishioners. Because of this, there has been a public outcry for allowing and welcoming kids in Mass. BUT Taylor thinks the pendulum has squng too far! With such a focus on welcoming kids in Mass, there has been less of a push on parents parenting their kids during the Mass. He shares a horrendous story of this happening at a recent Mass and tries to bring the conversation back to the middle and some sanity.
Taylor's next take on martyrdom has Fr. Anthony very worried about him. Taylor wonders why Christians have to accept martydom in the case of someone making you deny your faith. Why not let them hear what they want to hear knowing you don't mean it? Why not just plan on going to Confession? How does culpability come in to play if you're forced to do something at gun point. He asks the questions &amp;amp; Fr. Anthony tries his best to answer.
Finally, after the two hot takes, Taylor plays it safe but saying how dumb he thinks satanism is. It is the belief system that makes the least amount of sense. Like seeing the losing side and picking them. Very odd.
We hope you enjoy this absolutely wild episode to celebrate 250 episodes and 150k downloads! Thanks y'all!!!

  <description>Taylor kicks off the show with an announcement of a fun update to the show. He &amp;amp; Fr. Anthony also discuss the premise from a recent Marvel post that "real men only compliment each other behind their backs" which leads to a fun conversation about friendship.
Next, JP Quinn rejoins the show to play the game he invented: Forte, Mezzo, Piano. He shares hot takes that Father Anthony and Taylor have to grade and share their views on. Man, let me tell you, JP wanted absolute chaos this week and he got it. Fr. Anthony and Taylor haven't been this united in months as they take aim at JP's ridiculous takes. Absolute blood bath lol
Finally, you've heard the Pange Lingua, but have zero clue what it means in English. We're going to fix that. Enjoy!

<p>Next, JP Quinn rejoins the show to play the game he invented: Forte, Mezzo, Piano. He shares hot takes that Father Anthony and Taylor have to grade and share their views on. Man, let me tell you, JP wanted absolute chaos this week and he got it. Fr. Anthony and Taylor haven&#39;t been this united in months as they take aim at JP&#39;s ridiculous takes. Absolute blood bath lol</p>

<p>Finally, you&#39;ve heard the Pange Lingua, but have zero clue what it means in English. We&#39;re going to fix that. Enjoy!</p>

  <description>Fr. Anthony quizzes Taylor on fancy Catholic words and it...was something. lol. One of the more fun games we've come up with in a while. Do you know the meaning of more of these words than a guy with a Theology degree? The answer is...probably...
Sam Blair of The Frassati Company joins Taylor for a conversation on grit, heartiness &amp;amp; resilience. Taylor thought those words were synonyms but the ex-Seal and current leadership development expert taught him otherwise. This is a great conversation for us to continue to grow in our current situation.

Finally, Taylor &amp;amp; Fr. Anthony discuss using comedy to open people up for the Gospel.

  <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>The guys recorded on election day so just wanted to bring you people joy as you listen today. And we think we delivered ;) We brought back the fan favorite segment "Chicken Soup for the Schroll" with positive and heart-warming stories.
At long last, guests are once again a thing on the show as Mark Shea joins us to share the Church's best kept secret(oooo intriguing). It was a really helpful conversation in light of what our country is going through this week.
Finally, Taylor invented a new game where he and Fr. Anthony are beginning a Role Playing Game where they have to decide what kind of Catholics they will be. It was meant to be silly(and it was) but ended up shedding a lot of light on our spiritual lives lolol. Play along at home!

Taylor kicks it off by looking back at all the ups and downs of the last four years and makes his pitch for re-election as host for four more years of this strange show. Koji de Ramos rejoins the show to discuss being Catholic at work and some much needed mindset shifts for our careers after a year that threw us all for a loop. Finally, the guys share their initial thoughts on the new encyclical from Pope Francis. And for the first time publicly, Taylor disagrees with a Pope(gasp!).

    <![CDATA[<p>Fr. Anthony cohosts the four year anniversary show! Taylor kicks it off by looking back at all the ups and downs of the last four years and makes his pitch for re-election as host for four more years of this strange show.</p>

<p>Koji de Ramos rejoins the show to discuss being Catholic at work and some much needed mindset shifts for our careers after a year that threw us all for a loop.</p>

<p>Finally, the guys share their initial thoughts on the new encyclical from Pope Francis. And for the first time publicly, Taylor disagrees with a Pope(gasp!). Be sure to stay until the end to see what caused this!</p>

<p>Thanks for all the support of the show over the years! It means the world to us :) Blessings</p>

  <itunes:subtitle>Taylor &amp; Fr. Anthony discuss the parable of the talents in light of how it opposes the way many of us think. Taylor rants about people using (and not using) their voice well in our current unrest and plays a game with Kyle Heimann about loud things :)</itunes:subtitle>

  <description>Fr. Anthony cohosts as Taylor shares about his trip to the dentist, a podcast he recently listened to that he wants to rant about and how the parable of the talents pushes back on how a lot of us think.
In the second segment, we hear Taylor's appearance on the Kyle Heimann Show "Catholic Games." Kyle quizzes Taylor on his knowledge of loud things in the world and in our faith.
In the final segment, the guys discuss the NBA, racial inequality and many people's reaction to it. I think we all need to take a step back and assess our reactions.
Enjoy y'all!

  <description>We had a blast with this one!!! 😂 😂 😂
Taylor got ejected from a HS basketball game where he is the campus minister...whoops...lol. He shares the story, gets cohost Jon Blevins' take and the surprise reaction from the community. 
We only have two segments today because the second is so special! Fr. Anthony sent Taylor his most recent homily knowing EXACTLY what he was getting himself into. So he joins us without joining us as Jon and Taylor give their commentary throughout the homily. Live with us the dream of many lay people to heckle or commentate during the homily. Soooo much fun! Special thanks to Fr. Anthony for giving us permission to roast him. We have been nice too...maybe...

What leads the show instead is co-host Fr. Anthony Sciarappa sharing the story of driving his car into a ditch and then promptly having a phone call with Taylor to clear the air in their friendship. IT. WAS. WILD!!!
We're joined this week by Dustin Bertrand to look back at his first 30 years from his recent book that Taylor definitely has a better title for. </itunes:subtitle>

Our guest this week is recording artist Amanda Vernon! She's doing great work as the Catholic Alycia Keys through her music and new book "When God Wrecks Your Romance." She somehow gets Fr. Anthony to recall his dating life before the priesthood and it was beautiful to watch unfold. She is an absolute joy with a fun life story to share unlike any you've heard before. (AmandaVernon.com)
In the final segment, we check in to see if Fr. Anthony is giving any good homilies lately and Taylor gets to live the dream of what every lay person has wanted to do during homilies since the dawn of time. Enjoy as you live vicariously though Taylor.

  <itunes:subtitle>Fr. Anthony was in a mood and boi did he deliver! In one of our funnier recent episodes, Taylor yells at Fr. Anthony for stealing his content which is a perfect segway into a conversation on imperfections. 

Our guest this week made Fr. Anthony jealous because he's a more famous priest than him. Fr. Rob Galea is a world-renowned musician, speaker and media creator. He was the priest you may have seen on Australian X-Factor, has performed for the Pope and still finds time to hear confessions.</itunes:subtitle>

He was the priest you may have seen on Australian X-Factor, has performed for the Pope and still finds time to hear confessions. He shares the story of redemption that led him from gangs, addiction and depression to a beautiful life in the priesthood. Check him out at FRGMinistry.com.
We have a special treat this episode in having TWO guests! Everett Fritz(EverettFritz.com) rejoins the show to talk about common struggles we have in knowing what to say in personal prayer and the difficulty Catholics often have with praise. He shows us we actually know more than we think we do.

  <description>We made it 150 episodes! Fr. Anthony and Taylor celebrate by looking back at some of the best memories of the show with the help of many of our listeners who submitted their answers on social media.
The guys are also joined by two fan favorites returning to the show after long last to reminisce, laugh, talk odd Scriptures and more. We also have someone, who has been influential to the show before it even began, make their debut on the air.
We finish off the show with Taylor and Fr. Anthony dueling in a game of Biblical City or Sith Lord, hosted by the most insane game host of all time.
We hope you enjoy this episode that was an absolute blast to create. From the bottom of my heart, thank you for listening. Whether you've been on the train for years or are new to the show, I truly thank you for sticking with us. In Christ, Taylor

  <description>Fr. Anthony co-hosts as he and Taylor start the show looking back at crappy situations and realizing how they actually helped us. It gives us insight into how we handle these difficult situations.
Then in the second segment, we welcome back(to Fr. Anthony's surprise) Kaitlyn Facista, lovingly known as Tea with Tolkien! With the King and Queen of Catholic Twitter united, our goal is to break the internet, and challenge Matt Fradd's kingdom! We talk the video game versions of Tolkien, uncover how little Taylor actually knows about LOTR and Kaitlyn saves a sinking ship by taking over and showing us how Catholic thought is immersed in the Silmarillion. 
In the final segment, college freshmen Blaine Tamez rejoins the show to talk about some of the issues he's been seeing in our social media culture and makes Fr. Anthony do layman things. It's beautiful.

    <![CDATA[<p>Fr. Anthony co-hosts as he and Taylor start the show looking back at crappy situations and realizing how they actually helped us. It gives us insight into how we handle these difficult situations.</p>

<p>Then in the second segment, we welcome back(to Fr. Anthony&#39;s surprise) Kaitlyn Facista, lovingly known as Tea with Tolkien! With the King and Queen of Catholic Twitter united, our goal is to break the internet, and challenge Matt Fradd&#39;s kingdom! We talk the video game versions of Tolkien, uncover how little Taylor actually knows about LOTR and Kaitlyn saves a sinking ship by taking over and showing us how Catholic thought is immersed in the Silmarillion. </p>

<p>In the final segment, college freshmen Blaine Tamez rejoins the show to talk about some of the issues he&#39;s been seeing in our social media culture and makes Fr. Anthony do layman things. It&#39;s beautiful.</p>

  <description>Fr. Anthony co-hosts and Taylor has been saving a story for a month just for this moment with Padre. He shares a story of attending a Mass that had some odd quirks and made him think about the relationship between reverence and familiarity with Christ and how the two can sometimes feel at odds.
This week’s guest is Sam Guzman of the Catholic Gentleman to explain to Taylor what toxic masculinity actually is and how to change it. Sam has been doing great stuff for Catholic men for years. Be sure to check out his website with all kinds of resources for Catholic dudes. (catholicgentleman.net)
In the final segment, the guys talk about imaginative prayer, Taylor’s struggles with it and we laugh at/with Peter(what’s new?). This is a new style of prayer for Taylor and Fr. Anthony is quite encouraging(yep, you read that right).

In the final segment, the guys debunk some of the common misconceptions about the book of Revelation.
BONUS: The commercials on this episode are all brand new and are honestly Taylor's pride and joy :)

    <![CDATA[<p>Fr. Anthony co-hosts as we discuss the ridiculously insane weekend with the Avengers endgame premiere, largest battle in television/movie history on GOT &amp; more! NO SPOILERS! Fr. Anthony gets on the biggest soap box he ever has…and he promises not to spoil anything.</p>

<p>In the second segment, we’re joined by one of the coolest dudes in the ministry world, Ennie Hickman. We talk about preaching, actually loving your neighbors and all his work at Del Rey Collective. </p>

<p>In the final segment, the guys debunk some of the common misconceptions about the book of Revelation.</p>

<p>BONUS: The commercials on this episode are all brand new and are honestly Taylor&#39;s pride and joy :)</p>

  <description>Ooooo boy! This one was wild! Taylor got very little sleep and loses it on the air! Fr. Anthony joins and tries to help with the meltdown, but even his priest powers can't resist the tide. We talk Super Bowl, ad orientem Mass, and simple things that should have occurred to Taylor about the liturgy years ago but didn't until this week.
Our guest this week is David Bates: British Catholic, fancy word user, owner of glasses which make him seem believable, &amp;amp; former unemployed hobo. Tune in for his accent, stay for his eloquent words on why C.S. Lewis is the man! Check him out at Restlesspilgrim.net and his podcast at pintswithjack.com.

Anthony Sciarappa co-hosts as we talk follow up to the #Exodus90 convo on Ep 117 &amp; how the audience trapped Taylor into becoming a better person. Taylor is joined by youth ministry guru Chris Wesley &amp; they talk about riding other people's coattails, youth ministry stories and how to get out of the ruts we find ourselves in.</itunes:subtitle>

  <description>Just might be the funniest episode yet! Fr. Anthony Sciarappa co-hosts as we talk follow up to the #Exodus90 convo on Ep 117 &amp;amp; how the audience trapped Taylor into becoming a better person.
In the second segment, Taylor is joined by youth ministry guru Chris Wesley. They shoot the breeze(literally?), talk about riding other people's coattails, youth ministry stories and how to get out of the ruts we find ourselves in. Check out everything he's doing at Marathon Youth Ministry. (https://marathonyouthministry.com)
And the final segment may be the most ridiculous thing we've ever done. Fr. Anthony wants to blow up the moon!?!?! Taylor shares some spiritual insights in the moon and tries to back Padre into a corner. Was he successful? Tune in and find out!

  <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.

  <description>Fr. Anthony Sciarappa cohosts as we start the show talking about not only using half your brain but instead using all God(and yo mama) gave you! Padre's quote at the end of the segment is worth more than gold lol.
In the second segment, we're joined by Michael Foley to discuss the connection between preparing for Christmas and drinking a lot.....in a Catholic way! It's perfect! 
And in the final segment, Taylor rants about his "free speech booth" encounter and the guys discuss encouragement and end the show by being nice to each other. Twas' quite odd.

  <description>Fr. Anthony Sciarappa co-hosts(WHAT!?!?!) as we talk about what Taylor learned about keeping things simple from the high school students he was on retreat with this weekend. (The students may or may not have been a little comically confused)
In the second segment, we are joined by a listener favorite Fr. Augustine Wetta. He rejoins the show(from his high school classroom with actual students in it) to talk about his new novel "The Eighth Arrow" which explores what it would be like if Odysseus from the Odyssey was in Dante's Inferno. The book is a thoroughly entertaining jailbreak story, full of allusions to great works of old and the lessons contained. A segment with the monk who breaks all monk stereotypes is always entertaining. 
In the final segment, Taylor and Fr. Anthony bring back the "Mass Text" segment to revisit this past Sunday's readings, see how Father's homily went, discuss being bad at humility &amp;amp; why truths survive the test of time.

  <description>Producer Sam is in the Holy Land so Taylor is all alone in the studio.....sooooo this week's show was crowd sourced! We got tons of questions and topics submitted by you the listeners. From CrossFit to Fortnite to chicken nuggets to Vatican III, we have something for everyone this week! 
I also throw absolute shade at my frenemies at the Roman Circus podcast with the help of Fr. Anthony Sciarappa and throw shade at said priest with the help of his brother, producer Nick Sciarappa. Producer Sam wasn't around to carry the show so creativity and assistance from everyone involved was needed.
In the second segment, I am joined by my co-nemesis @TeaWithTolkien to talk about our "beef", her Catholic Twitter title &amp;amp; of course....tea &amp;amp; Tolkien. 
Tune in to this very different but super interesting(I'm biased) episode! Let me know what you think of today's format and content on social media.

    <![CDATA[<p>Producer Sam is in the Holy Land so Taylor is all alone in the studio.....sooooo this week&#39;s show was crowd sourced! We got tons of questions and topics submitted by you the listeners. From CrossFit to Fortnite to chicken nuggets to Vatican III, we have something for everyone this week! </p>

<p>I also throw absolute shade at my frenemies at the Roman Circus podcast with the help of Fr. Anthony Sciarappa and throw shade at said priest with the help of his brother, producer Nick Sciarappa. Producer Sam wasn&#39;t around to carry the show so creativity and assistance from everyone involved was needed.</p>

<p>In the second segment, I am joined by my co-nemesis @TeaWithTolkien to talk about our &quot;beef&quot;, her Catholic Twitter title &amp; of course....tea &amp; Tolkien. </p>

<p>Tune in to this very different but super interesting(I&#39;m biased) episode! Let me know what you think of today&#39;s format and content on social media.</p>

  <description>Huge celebration show planned for the 100th episode! We had 8 guests on this episode, all of which have had a huge impact on the show's history. 
In the first segment, everyone's favorite Forte Catholic Character, "Rocco" the Eagles super-fan, returns to the show to give us an update on the Eagles and his faith. Then Taylor's two favorite priests, Fr. Anthony Sciarappa and Fr. Jared Cooke, face off to see if one of them can reign supreme by the end.
In the second segment, the bros Lance Rosen of the Catholic Coaster Podcast and Alex Gotay rejoin the show. We all make fun of each other, talk faith and culture &amp;amp; of course continue the Texas vs. Canada debate.
In the final segment, Chris Bartlett and J.P. Quinn rejoin the show with our surprise guest to talk favorite podcasts, Forte Catholic memories, Fortnite &amp;amp; more.
A huge thank you to everyone who has ever listened to the show, supported, shared, reviewed, etc. I couldn't have made it to 100 episodes without you. I hope you continue to enjoy as we #MakeCatholicismFunAgain together!

  <itunes:subtitle>Taylor learned a new term called "moral licensing" and shares how it may define his spiritual life...and maybe yours. Fr. Anthony Sciarappa joins the show for the first time to talk about things that he has done as a priest that are probably the first time in history that a priest has done them. Brian Baudoin rejoins the show to talk about his favorite memories of the show and introduces a new segment.</itunes:subtitle>

  <description>Sooo many voices on this episode! Producer Sam is back! We catch up with her and talk about this new term Taylor learned called "moral licensing," how it may define his spiritual life...and maybe yours.
In the second segment, we are joined by self-proclaimed "Pittsburgh okayest priest" and "gift to the show," Fr. Anthony Sciarappa. He is a hilarious priest and talks about the things he has done that might have been the first time ever in the eternal priesthood.
In the third segment, the newest Patreon supporter, Brian Baudoin, rejoins the show to talk about why he supports the show, favorite memories, what he would do if he was in charge AND invents a new segment specifically to mess with producer Sam.
This was a fun one! Hope y'all enjoy listening as much as we all did recording. Please rate and subscribe to the show wherever you listen to podcasts and share the show with a friend.
