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. 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!). Be sure to stay until the end to see what caused this!

Taylor attended the ginormous National Catholic Youth Conference with over 24k people there but that doesn't even lead our show this week. 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.

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.
