  <description>Jeremy is one of the premiere Catholic worship leaders &amp;amp; joins Taylor on this week's episode to discuss their shared passions: sports, faith &amp;amp; music. They have gotten to work together at multiple events &amp;amp; finally turned on the recorders to share one of their conversations with you.
They kick the show off discussing how they both coach at small Catholic schools (where they are actually rivals!) and the way sports can bring people together. They share some of Pope Leo's recent comments about the intersection of faith &amp;amp; sports and how they have seen those in real time during their many years coaching.
Then, they talk about the importance of music to our everyday lives, including  how it impacts how we pray. Jeremy shares about his experiences leading worship but also how his band reaches people with the Good News simply through good music, like good ol' Switchfoot. 
He is a talented and great man so I'm happy that we FINALLY recorded this and get to share it with you today :)

  <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>Tanner is our guest cohost this week as we get to know him, hear about his journey from acting in LA to Catholic leader &amp;amp; hear about his new book from Ave Maria Press.
I've been working with Tanner behind the scenes on a couple of his podcast projects and we started to get to know each other a bit and found out that we had a lot in common! Tanner shares about his past in college baseball, having a hit movie and his friend Glen(one of the best moments in show history!) 
We hope you enjoy this fun and insightful episode. May you and yours have a blessed Thanksgiving week!

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.
Finally, Taylor asks some questions about commiting sins in a Church which leads to some fun thought experiments.

  <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!

    <![CDATA[<p>We kick this week&#39;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; more! Taylor shares a hot take about homilies that may stir the pot a little bit! It&#39;s a topic we all struggle with but often don&#39;t talk about.</p>

<p>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! </p>

  <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.

Taylor shares some good news about his track team utilizing a fun play on words.

  <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!

  <description>I've respected Ryan O'Hara from afar for quite some time now so I was thrilled when we connected to be on each other's shows. In this episode, we talk about his podcast "Better Preach" where he chats with speakers on how they hone their craft of sharing the Gospel.
We also put him to the test with our spur of the moment Catholic talk game called "Freestyle Preaching."
To close the show, Ryan shares his story of becoming foster parents, how that process works and what lessons it has taught him.
We hope you enjoy this conversation! If you do, please hit subscribe and also check out Better Preach wherever you enjoy podcasts. https://www.ryanohara.org/betterpreach

  <description>Taylor has a laundry list of things currently driving him into fits of rage. Allison does her best to help him through it. As the Lenten season begins to wrap up, join us in our suffering. Misery loves company! They laugh through it and Allison shares her classic fiery preaching skills to guide us through times when anger wells up.
They also soft launch a new segment called Catholic Questions, where they pose random questions about the faith and give zero attempt to answer them. We hope you like it!

  <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>We're doing a Forte Flashback this week, highlighting our cohost Kathryn Whitaker's first two appearances on the podcast as a guest. These conversations were the seeds planted that eventually led to her joining us on a monthly basis.
Today's show kicks off with her first appearance is person on Ep 256. We were recording in Liv Harrison's house so the three of us shared some things that are anchors or foundations for them as people that keep us strong during even the toughest of times.
Then we go alllll the way back to Ep 153. This was back in our radio/podcast days. The title of the episode was "Nightmares Are You Scaring /you" which is still one of my favorite episode titles. We discuss her book "Live Big, Love Bigger: Getting Real with BBQ, Sweet Tea and a Whole Lotta Jesus" which is a title that perfectly captures Kathryn's aura. She shares her story of dealing with loss and pain, how it affected her relationship with Christ and, as a bonus, how to share your faith without being a weirdo.
If you like this episode, all of our episodes are available wherever you are listening to this. Check out our backlog if you've joined us at some point in the last eight years!
A great place to start is the list of our top ten episodes which can be found at ForteCatholic.com/podcasts.

  <description>Taylor shares about he and his wife's recent trip to North Carolina for the Game of Favorites wedding between our friends Peter and Yenza. They met dozens of internet friends in person for the first time, had a tremendous time celebrating the newlyweds &amp;amp; some fancy food(that made Taylor realize he's an idiot!) This leads to Allison sharing about her own wedding, some hilarious stories of her kids in Mass &amp;amp; Schitt's Creek(of course!).
Taylor also shares about one of the longest homilies he's ever heard and some of the strangest things he saw at a recent Mass. It's like they did EVERYTHING POSSIBLE to make the Mass a hostage situation.

    <![CDATA[<p>Taylor shares about he and his wife&#39;s recent trip to North Carolina for the Game of Favorites wedding between our friends Peter and Yenza. They met dozens of internet friends in person for the first time, had a tremendous time celebrating the newlyweds &amp; some fancy food(that made Taylor realize he&#39;s an idiot!) This leads to Allison sharing about her own wedding, some hilarious stories of her kids in Mass &amp; Schitt&#39;s Creek(of course!).</p>

<p>Taylor also shares about one of the longest homilies he&#39;s ever heard and some of the strangest things he saw at a recent Mass. It&#39;s like they did EVERYTHING POSSIBLE to make the Mass a hostage situation.</p>

  <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.

  <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!

To kick off the show, Taylor talks with Ebin Baby, the director of the Syro-Malabar Youth Movement for Ireland.

Then, Taylor is joined by Fr. Binoj Mulavarickal, the leader of the Syro-Malabar Youth Movement for all of Europe. He and Taylor discuss his first experience at a Syro-Malabar rite Mass (called Qurbana) &amp;amp; adoration. They talk about what makes the Syro-Malabar rites different than what those of us in the Latin rite may be used to. Taylor shares about the beautiful experience of worshiping in this new way. Fr. Binoj is an incredible speaker and highly regarded musician with millions of listeners on YouTube &amp;amp; Spotify. Connect with him @binoj_achan on Instagram.

  <description>Happy New Year! Taylor is back with some great guests to celebrate the New Year. Keith from Grassroot Catholic returns to the show to co-host this week. He &amp;amp; Taylor discuss their Christmas celebrations, including quite possibly the worst Mass experience Taylor has ever had! Later, they discuss piety, knowing we love God but lacking the desire to do anything about it &amp;amp; devotion. Keith tries to guide Taylor through some issues as an emergency spiritual director stand-in. Follow Keith @grassrootcatholic on Instagram.
Also this week, Fr. Peter Pomposello joins Taylor to teach us about military priests. Fr. Peter (also known as Fr. Uncle Sam) discusses how he became a priest for the diocese of the US military, how the military works with priests &amp;amp; more. It's a fun discussion with insight into an entire part of the Catholic world that Taylor knew almost nothing about.

  <description>Merry Christmas from all of us to all of you! The gang is all hear with our yearly guest, comedian Aaron Weber.
All three cohosts join in the celebrations! Taylor is first joined by Allison Sullivan to share their favorite &amp;amp; least favorite parts about the Christmas season. 
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. 
Thank you so much for listening! We love you guys! Merry Christmas!

  <description>Kathryn Whitaker cohosts our final episode of Advent. She &amp;amp; Taylor talk about how there are multiple pathways to holiness within Catholicism. This has been accepted for generations (i.e. different religious orders) but these days people find what works for them and want to impose it on everyone else.
Taylor shares one of his strangest quirks and discusses how iPhone upgrades mirror his spiritual life. How do we deal with spiritual growth?
To close the show, Kathryn has some hot takes on the College Football Playoff committee's decision &amp;amp; Texas A&amp;amp;M's historic firing of Jimbo Fisher. This connects to our moral life as we discuss fairness, excess, leadership &amp;amp; more.

  <description>Allison has been hyping up The Shift film for about a year now and was invited to walk the red carpet at the premiere! FANCY! She shares about that experience she shared with her son &amp;amp; discusses Christian art in the public sphere.
Allison also wrote a new talk for Advent and shares some of the highlights from that. Taylor shares what he has been pondering throughout this season of preparation and Allison is shocked by how insightful it was. Taylor was both hurt &amp;amp; happy with this outcome.
Finally, they end the show sharing their differing opinions on Matt Rife's new special. He has been called to be "cancelled" over some of his jokes. Allison agrees, Taylor thinks it might be taking it a bit too far. They talk about where comedy &amp;amp; morality mix &amp;amp; when they clearly don't.

  <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>Happy Thanksgiving from our crew to yours! We hope this episode gives you some laughs while you're avoiding your in-laws ;)
There has been some negativity floating around the past few weeks so we decided to combat it with some thanksgiving! Of course it was perfect timing with the holiday this week, but Taylor was also reminded that it is hard to be negative and thankful at the same time so recalling what we are grateful for is a great remedy. He &amp;amp; Kathryn share the things in their personal lives, families, church, work and more that they are most thankful for this year.
In keeping with the theme of Thanksgiving, we had to talk about arguing and people not minding their own business ;) Kathryn shares a ridiculous comment she received that definitely crossed the line. She shares the story &amp;amp; what bothered her about it. She &amp;amp; Taylor talk about how we should all mind our own business a little more, especially when we don't have all the facts. Like mama always said, if you aint got nuthin nice to say then don't say nuthin! 
We hope y'all all have a beautiful Thanksgiving! We are so grateful you listen to our show. :) Blessings on you and yours this week!

  <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.

    <![CDATA[<p>Fr. Anthony is back to discuss the lost years of Jesus with Taylor. There is ONE verse that covers the majority of Jesus&#39; life from when He is a teen until His public ministry. We talk about what this verse means for our own spiritual growth &amp; some Father gives some practical tips.</p>

<p>They also discuss one of Taylor&#39;s leadership heroes, Zig Ziglar. He played a large role in Taylor&#39;s formation in college so they discuss some of his most famous quotes.</p>

<p>Then finally, the moment you&#39;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; gets his thoughts on some Catholic hot takes.</p>

    <![CDATA[<p>Allison joins Taylor as he shares about something most people keep pretty close to their chest: money. He shares that money has been a constant stressor for over a decade and Allison thinks he&#39;s not alone. They discuss financial stressors, the pit of comparison &amp; what role money plays in on spiritual lives.</p>

<p>In the second segment, Allison helps Taylor prep for two new talks on the Vine &amp; Branches and Martha &amp; Mary. They discuss the Scriptural texts, their thoughts on what they would preach about and how to adapt it for a younger audience.</p>

  <description>Liv Harrison is back in studio to talk with Taylor about Main Character Energy. We all think from our own point of view, so how do we break out of thinking we're the main character in the story. Taylor shares a strange tactic he uses to try and not make everything about him.
Liv shares about her new tattoos &amp;amp; alliterative faith advice. Taylor is incredibly proud of one of his jokes &amp;amp; they discuss a possible solution to dryness in prayer. We hope you enjoy this episode!

  <description>Taylor &amp;amp; his kids were on their own this last weekend and it was a glimpse into how much things have changed over the years.

Kathryn also shares how she has been in a season of change and the importance of continual change in the spiritual life.
Next, Taylor shares a story about how he saw a grown man shaming some teenagers and it enraged him. He &amp;amp; Kathryn talk about battling shame and how it has no proper place in the lives of Christians.

  <description>Shaun is back! One of the OG cohosts returns for a fun conversation. 
How to live your faith in the workplace has been a frequently requested topic for us to tackle so we finally found someone who doesn't work for the Church lol. Shaun talks about how he is able to live his faith in his fancy government job.
They also talk about Sacramentals which is one of Shaun's favorite topics &amp;amp; Taylor doesn't understand all the hubbub. Shaun does his best to convince Taylor of their importance in the lives of Catholics. It's almost like he wrote a book about them or something...(https://tanbooks.com/products/books/compendium-of-sacramentals-encyclopedia-of-the-churchs-blessings-signs-and-devotions/)

  <itunes:subtitle>Fr. Anthony tries to make a WWE fan out of Taylor with mixed results. They play a new Catholic word association game that reveals maybe a little too much &amp; Taylor makes some wild claims about Jesus again including about the Lord’s qualifications, liturgy preferences, views on healing ministry, Catholic conferences and more! </itunes:subtitle>

  <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>The Johnny Manziel documentary just came out. Kathryn is a fan of Johnny. Taylor can't stand him! They discuss a plethora of topics surrounding this Texas A&amp;amp;M College Football star, his rise, fall &amp;amp; how we are left to sort through the wreckage.
While Johnny is the impetus for our conversation, we discuss topics from a Catholic point of view like tribalism, sports, consequences for our actions, forgiveness &amp;amp; how all of those things together make life a bit more complicated than we might like.
This is a rare ONE SEGMENT episode because there was just so much to dive in to on this topic. We hope you enjoy this rare episode :)

  <itunes:subtitle>Taylor &amp; Chris chat about topics they tend to shy away from when giving talks, the reasons behind it and whether they should expand their horizons or stick to the stuff they know? (queue High School Musical) They also give each other a run for their money in Freestyle Preaching &amp; discuss Spiritual Nostalgia with the help of the song "Old Church Basement." </itunes:subtitle>

  <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 ;) 
Listen to "Old Church Basement", the song Taylor discusses in the final segment on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/track/5j4EazAPhtFyHhwNpbNzEx?si=aa87cb18f4764a59

    <![CDATA[<p>Guest Cohost Chris Bartlett joins Taylor to discuss the frustration of not being given parameters within which to work, how that works when they&#39;re invited to speak somewhere &amp; topics they typically don&#39;t share about. For example, Taylor doesn&#39;t usually speak about Mary because it isn&#39;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)</p>

<p>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?</p>

<p>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; Taylor has to hold back the tears. Because of the Care Bears? You&#39;ll have to listen to the end to find out ;) </p>

<p>Listen to &quot;Old Church Basement&quot;, the song Taylor discusses in the final segment on Spotify: <a href="https://open.spotify.com/track/5j4EazAPhtFyHhwNpbNzEx?si=aa87cb18f4764a59" rel="nofollow">https://open.spotify.com/track/5j4EazAPhtFyHhwNpbNzEx?si=aa87cb18f4764a59</a></p>

  <description>Liv Harrison makes her triumphant return after taking a break from the show for a year! She &amp;amp; Taylor share about the best things that have happened in her life over the past year in our Chicken Soup for the Schroll segment.
Next, Taylor shares his newest obsession in an app that allows you to text with Jesus, Mary &amp;amp; other biblical characters through the magic of Chat GPT. He &amp;amp; Liv ask their favorite biblical characters questions live on the show. It's incredible how well it works! It may have forever changed how Taylor prays &amp;amp; does show prep, for better or worse.
To close out the show, they discuss one half of the summer blockbuster sensation weekend in Oppenheimer. They have differing opinions on how good the movie is &amp;amp; discuss the themes of the movie through a Catholic lens. It's mostly spoiler-free until the last couple minutes where we give a warning if you haven't seen the movie yet. Enjoy!

  <description>Taylor kicks off the show by asking Kathryn about her history with sports. They discuss how to break a slump in sports and what that teaches us about breaking slumps in our faith. Kathryn also gives the best sports team name of all time!
Next, they play the faith based version of the alphabet game. They attempt to have discussions about faith topics with every alternating sentences that have to start with the next letter in the alphabet. It's silly and leads to some outrageous statements.
Finally, Taylor realizes that he doesn't know much about Kathryn's childhood so they share stories about how they're very similar now to as they were as kids and some other ways where they are very different.

  <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 :)

    <![CDATA[<p>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. </p>

<p>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.</p>

<p>Finally, Taylor has two questions about when a priest is In Persona Christi &amp; when he isn&#39;t particularly during the Mass. What if a priest says something crazy during a homily? Is the priest as Jesus eating Jesus&#39; body in the Eucharist. New and strange questions that we enjoyed exploring the answers to. We hope you enjoy this episode :) </p>

  <itunes:subtitle>Allison took the spiritual gifts assessment and reveals her results which leads to a good conversation on finding our place in the Church community. She also keeps Taylor on his toes by asking some of her favorite "21 questions." Nick Senz joins the show to compare NBA legends to Catholic Saints in a fun way to learn more great saint stories.</itunes:subtitle>

  <description>Allison did her homework from a few episodes ago &amp;amp; took the spiritual gifts assement. Taylor guesses what her results were before she reveals her top 6 gifts that God has given her. It leads to a good conversation about using our gifts to build the kingdom, dusting off some unused gifts and finding our place in the Church community.
In the second segment, Taylor talks with Nick Senz who compares some of our Church's greatest saints with NBA legends. It was a fun segment for Taylor because he knows more about NBA stars than saints so we got to hear some great saint stories. Whether you're a fan of the NBA, stories of the saints of both, you'll love this fun conversation.
Allison is back for the final segment to ask some of her favorite "21 questions" to keep him on his toes. The questions range from fun to hitting Taylor like a freight train.

  <description>Allison led a group of Pilgrims through the steps of St. Paul on a river cruise through Greece. She shares how they visited a ton of sites you've heard about in the Scriptures and reveals whether her thoughts on St. Paul have changed or not. She also shares one of the most wild and random takes we've ever heard on the show that simply floors Taylor.
Taylor recounts a story of him hosting trivia and how one group of people ruined it for everyone else. He somehow blames Allison and they discuss how Christians have to be better representatives in public spaces.

    <![CDATA[<p>Allison led a group of Pilgrims through the steps of St. Paul on a river cruise through Greece. She shares how they visited a ton of sites you&#39;ve heard about in the Scriptures and reveals whether her thoughts on St. Paul have changed or not. She also shares one of the most wild and random takes we&#39;ve ever heard on the show that simply floors Taylor.</p>

<p>Taylor recounts a story of him hosting trivia and how one group of people ruined it for everyone else. He somehow blames Allison and they discuss how Christians have to be better representatives in public spaces.</p>

He also shares one of the strangest moral conundrums he has ever had as a Father that happened this past week.
The show continues with a discussion on the morality of video games. Taylor accidentally made a decision in a video game that may get him kicked out of the Church lol. He shares his shame with Fr. Anthony and they discuss if it is sinful to commit sins in a video games.
To close the show, Taylor shares some reflections from a book he has been reading by John Eldredge called "Get Your Life Back." They discuss carnivals, actively loving God, finding restoration for our tired souls &amp;amp; how to handle other people's bad theology. 
We hope you enjoy this episode as much as we enjoyed recording it!

  <description>It's been a wild couple of months for the Forte Catholic podcast. The highest of highs and the lowest of lows. After some big wins, this was another tough week with Taylor's youngest breaking her arm at school and needing surgery at Texas Children's. He shares the story and Allison guides the conversation on how he is responding and how to navigate difficult times as a Catholic.
In the next segment, Taylor asks Allison some "gotcha" questions about marriage that stir the pot and they end up accidentally talking about privilege, life insurance &amp;amp; how to value our spouses more.

  <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.

    <![CDATA[<p>Fr. Anthony &amp; Taylor kick off the show with some Italian stereotypes &amp; two great moments for God&#39;s chosen people in the Old Testament: The parting of the Red Sea &amp; the Battle of Jericho. We promise you&#39;ve never heard the Jericho story like this!</p>

<p>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?</p>

<p>They close the show with a conversation about leadership, failure &amp; improving after Taylor was inspired by a recent Malcolm Gladwell story.</p>

  <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>Kathryn Whitaker returns to share her incredible experience in the Holy Land. She talks about all of the places that she went to that we will hear about at the Masses of this Holy Week. She came back changed spiritually AND physically.
She &amp;amp; Taylor also discuss how we are constantly on “holy ground” and in God’s presence in the places we may least expect it. They discuss the story of the burning bush and places where they’ve encountered God where they weren’t necessarily looking for Him. They also talk about the places in their lives where God probably is but they haven’t taken the time to recognize Him.
We hope you have a blessed Holy Week!

  <description>Taylor's associate pastor joins the show to chat about Mass, taking care of the flock and being tired of dumb arguments
Taylor has known Fr. Will since his early seminary days and he is now the associate pastor at his parish. Fr. Will comes in studio to chat about the Mass &amp;amp; Pastoral Care. Particularly how to make changes to the Mass over time in a way where the people in the pews won't revolt. Taylor has some compliments and some challenges for the young priest on that front. Some lively conversation and hilarity ensues.
They close out the show with Taylor sharing about how tired he is of "slippery slope" arguments. He sees them all the time and thinks they're one of the dumbest ways to argue. He gets Fr. Will's thoughts on some common Catholic slippery slope arguments.

  <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

  <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!

<p>They also discuss burnout and how to get out of the cycle/systems that lead to us losing drive and the joy that comes from our routine tasks.</p>

  <description>Taylor Schroll flies solo this week and shares two of his favorite reflections on this past weekend's Gospel: the Beatitudes.
The first is from the homily at his parish given by Fr. Brian Eilers contrasting the themes from Jesus' famous sermon on the mount with how the world tells us to live.
The second is from a song called "Confession" by the Poor Kings. The lead singer was Taylor's HS youth minister and its a beautiful modern reflection on these ancients truths.

They also discuss a new initiative at their parish and how it can be used as a good barometer for all of us to focus on spiritual growth in the new year.

  <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!

We're not therapists but we hope you and enjoy our honest conversation with the signature Forte Catholic laughter through the pain ;)

  <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!

    <![CDATA[<p>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.</p>

<p>We also introduce a new segment called &quot;Plane Theology.&quot; 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&#39;s been wondering about recently with absolutely no prep for the good priest. The topics include Jerusalem, infant baptism and hiccups. Enjoy!</p>

  <description>Jon Blevins cohosts as Taylor shares stories from a fun ministry trip to Seattle. The stories involve funniest ministry moments, worst biblical pronunciations &amp;amp; Catholics invading non-denominational camps.
They also play one of our favorite games: freestyle preaching. They give each other three random words that they have to include in a 60 second sermon which lead to some great points and good laughs. 
Finally, they share some of the "best nuggets" from their real preaching at retreats, youth nights, or conferences. They have both been sharing the Gospel for years and share their favorite insights to speak about.

  <description>Allison Sullivan &amp;amp; Taylor Schroll discuss how expectations can really ruin an experience. They discuss this in regards to movies, video games and people, but it also applies to how we interact with God and the Church. They also go through St. Josemaria Escriva's book "The Way" for tips on the virtues they are best and worst at. It was fun to choose themes we thought the other could work on ;)
Our guest this week is Meghan Adams. She is an environmental engineer who is passionate about the Lord's call for us to be good stewards of the earth He has given us. She and Taylor discuss why Catholics should care about the environment, Pope Francis' focus on it in his latest writings and what normal Catholics can do in their daily life to better take care of our shared home.

    <![CDATA[<p>Allison Sullivan &amp; Taylor Schroll discuss how expectations can really ruin an experience. They discuss this in regards to movies, video games and people, but it also applies to how we interact with God and the Church. They also go through St. Josemaria Escriva&#39;s book &quot;The Way&quot; for tips on the virtues they are best and worst at. It was fun to choose themes we thought the other could work on ;)</p>

<p>Our guest this week is Meghan Adams. She is an environmental engineer who is passionate about the Lord&#39;s call for us to be good stewards of the earth He has given us. She and Taylor discuss why Catholics should care about the environment, Pope Francis&#39; focus on it in his latest writings and what normal Catholics can do in their daily life to better take care of our shared home.<br>

  <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>Jon Blevins cohosts as Taylor shares his mixed feelings on music by a former Catholic, now atheist being played at Mass. It was initially frustrating but then ended in hope. They also discuss how Jesus can simultaneously be the seemingly contradictory Lion and the Lamb and what that means for us.
We're also joined today by very special guest Fr. Dave Dwyer of the "Busted Halo Show" on Sirius XM's "The Catholic Channel." Taylor has looked up to Fr. Dave for years and Fr. Dave's show has been a huge influence on Taylor's approach to Catholic media. After years of working in media, including stints at MTV &amp;amp; Comedy Central, Fr. Dave has written his first book "Mass Class." He answers some of our most pressing questions about the Mass as well as some of the strangest he's received through the years. Listen to Fr. Dave's show on "The Catholic Channel", check out the podcast wherever you enjoy pods and get his new book today. (https://www.paulistpress.com/Products/0666-0/mass-class.aspx).

  <description>There are a lot of "firsts" in this episode! First episode with Taylor in his new recording set up. First time guest cohost Peter Schmidt has been on the show and first time for Catholic comics creator Andy Shaggy Korty!
Taylor introduces Peter and they talk about the online Catholic young adult community he's been able to create through Game of Favorites (on Twitch.tv/ptony). Taylor also has a confession to make about last week's show that made him feel VERY dumb.
Andy Shaggy Korty is our guest this week and he shares about his new idea "Nov Arts Ordo." Andy is an incredible comics creator who's plan is to invite other creators to make something each day in November that is connected to the saints. Connect with Andy on Facebook, Instagram &amp;amp; Twitter @andyshaggykorty.
Peter closes out the show with a topic he wanted to focus on: poverty. They discuss how whether we are rich, poor or anywhere in between, we can all still struggle with our connection to money.

  <description>Taylor shares a personal &amp;amp; professional announcement with Allison to kick off the show and then they discuss how they have accumulated enemies at an alarming rate since the pandemmy started. Taylor gets introspective and asks why he has so many enemies, if he needs to change everything, how to deal with enemies internally and struggling to forgive them. Allison gives her wise counsel as always.
They also discuss the recent She-Hulk Marvel series and how it was such a great show and really gave great insight into the differences between men and women by showing the differences between the Hulk &amp;amp; She-Hulk. They have a conversation about the show and highlight some of their favorite moments highlighting women's issues, anger, and friendship.

  <description>Jon Blevins cohosts as Taylor tries to prove to Jon that his barber is lying to him. They also discuss the Four P's and how they affect our professional and spiritual lives.
Next, Taylor has questions about a famous St. Francis story and why he had to do things the way he did. They also discuss a change to the Mass a few years ago that makes very little sense.
Finally, they discuss parish life and Taylor asks Jon for assistance in an issue he's working through at his parish.

  <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>Taylor is finally worthless and he couldn't be more excited! 
He &amp;amp; Liv discuss remembering the days that we prayed for what we have now. Taylor has a hard time being thankful for the little wins because he is constantly looking towards the next goal. They have a conversation about how to slow down and look back on how far things have come.
Finally, Taylor shares how the woman at the well story has always bothered him a bit and the new insight from an unlikely source that helped him quite a bit.

  <description>Taylor kicks off the show by sharing a recent parenting win with Jon: he and his son won a game of Fortnite together! They celebrate and share some of their favorite moments of being a parent. 
In the next segment, Taylor asks Jon how he should handle regrets in his life. A few regrets keep popping up in his mind and he wants to know how Jon deals with past failures.
Finally, they start with a conversation about the difference between a mountain and a hill that has Taylor fascinated and annoyed. This leads to a conversation about bioethics and how the Church tackles new problems as they arrive. Not quite how we thought we would end but here we are ;)

    <![CDATA[<p>Taylor kicks off the show by sharing a recent parenting win with Jon: he and his son won a game of Fortnite together! They celebrate and share some of their favorite moments of being a parent. </p>

<p>In the next segment, Taylor asks Jon how he should handle regrets in his life. A few regrets keep popping up in his mind and he wants to know how Jon deals with past failures.</p>

<p>Finally, they start with a conversation about the difference between a mountain and a hill that has Taylor fascinated and annoyed. This leads to a conversation about bioethics and how the Church tackles new problems as they arrive. Not quite how we thought we would end but here we are ;)</p>

  <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! :)

  <description>OG Cohost Shaun McAfee returns for Episode 299! He has moved back to the USA and shares about that transition and a very difficult thing he and his family had to endure. He talks about how he handled it and how he was able to survive this tough time. Taylor dishes out a rare compliment for how much faith he showed through the trials.
Our guest this week is Keith from Grassroot Catholic. He is a Trad that isn't Mad! He is inviting people into the deep traditions of the Church in a kind, loving and convincing way. Taylor asks how we can all be a bit more traditional and what a reverent Mass looks like. Follow him  @grassrootcatholic on YouTube &amp;amp; Instagram.
Shaun rejoins Taylor for the final segment where Taylor shares a very odd realization he had recently: That he is probably taller than Jesus was on Earth. Is he still taller now? Will that make Taylor meeting Jesus in Heaven awkward? Let us know what you think in the comments and on our social media channels! :)

    <![CDATA[<p>OG Cohost Shaun McAfee returns for Episode 299! He has moved back to the USA and shares about that transition and a very difficult thing he and his family had to endure. He talks about how he handled it and how he was able to survive this tough time. Taylor dishes out a rare compliment for how much faith he showed through the trials.</p>

<p>Our guest this week is Keith from Grassroot Catholic. He is a Trad that isn&#39;t Mad! He is inviting people into the deep traditions of the Church in a kind, loving and convincing way. Taylor asks how we can all be a bit more traditional and what a reverent Mass looks like. Follow him  @grassrootcatholic on YouTube &amp; Instagram.</p>

<p>Shaun rejoins Taylor for the final segment where Taylor shares a very odd realization he had recently: That he is probably taller than Jesus was on Earth. Is he still taller now? Will that make Taylor meeting Jesus in Heaven awkward? Let us know what you think in the comments and on our social media channels! :)</p>

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!

Next, Taylor asks a seemingly strange question about Jesus' first miracle that leads to a question about implicity/fault in sin.
Finally, they talk about their prayer routines/regiments that they use as a foundation for their prayer life. Enjoy!

  <description>Taylor has a backhanded compliment for Jon. This unleashes Jon's full potential!!! They discuss an odd article about Jon that Taylor found in the deepest parts of the web.
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.
Finally, they rant about a weird Catholic tradition. Enjoy!

  <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!

<p>Finally, they discuss decision fatigue, christian over-discernment and use the book of Acts as proof we shouldn&#39;t freeze in decisions. We just gotta chill bro.</p>

  <description>Taylor &amp;amp; Jon haven't talked in a while so they kick off the show by catching up on each other's lives with stories about life, work, sports.
Next, Taylor shares a story he recently heard in a homily that he's heard many times before, but this time he has some questions about it. It involved following Catholic rules(or not), respect for the Sacraments and martyrdom. Prepare for potential controversy(or to be convinced!)
Finally, Taylor recently led an 8th grade boys small group and thought it would be fun if he and Jon answered some of those questions on the show. It led to some fun answers and some more deep conversations.
We hope you enjoy this week's episode! If you do, please subscribe and share :)

  <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>

  <description>Taylor went to Jon's house for his annual March Madness party and they recorded a podcast together. This is their first ever recording in person and it was a blast! 
They chatted about the weekend: hanging out with 50 dudes &amp;amp; having Mass in Jon's house. They kept the sports theme going with comparing an elusive baseball stat with our spiritual life. And they played an intense round of our saints game of Imitate, Intercess or Ignore!

  <description>Liv Harrison cohosts as Taylor shares about his recent trip to see multiple doctors. It wasn't the greatest day but he saw a lot of silly, and some serious, connections to his faith life during his day with the docs. He also asked a one doctor a question prompted by Liv and he didn't get the answer he was expecting.
Then, they discuss if this podcast's hosts have had any character development throughout the course of the show. Has Taylor grown in six years since the show launched? How have the cohosts grown in their three years as part of the show? Tune in to find out and let us know your thoughts on social media.
Finally, Taylor shares a pop up book that his lovely daughter made for him entitled "Where Is Daddy?" She wrote this while he was on a trip so it tugs on the heartstrings. 
We hope you enjoy this week's episode! Stay tuned for next week's episode live from Chicago with Jon Blevins!

  <description>The show starts on a bit of a somber note this week. Taylor recently attended a funeral and shares a bit about the experience, grieving the loss of someone and the difficulties many people face with mental health.
In the second segment, they discuss the (often hidden) gem of Lectio Divina. This ancient way of praying with Scripture has helped many people grow in tremendous ways in their spiritual life. They walk through the parable of the sower with Lectio Divina in mind.
Finally, Taylor talks about a random moment that brought him back to an encounter with God from 2004. This brings about a conversation about returning to memories of times when we felt God's presence during periods of darkness.
We hope you enjoy this week's episode!

  <description>Kathryn Whitaker is in town and joins Taylor to talk about his trip to LA and her recent experience of extreme hospitality at Church. They also play Imitate, Intercess or Ignore where they each give the other three saints and they have to pick which one they want to be like, which they will ask for prayers and which they will ignore! 
Lent is right around the corner so Fr. Innocent Montgomery joins the show to discuss how we can enter into this Lenten season well. Fr. Innocent is a CFR, host of the popular Poco a Poco podcast and author of Born of Fire. This book comes from his years of preparing young men for the priesthood. He takes those lessons and applies them to how we can enter the desert with Jesus in this Lenten season. Get your copy of the book today at https://bornoffirebook.com.

  <itunes:subtitle>Usually it's Jon bringing the hot takes but this week Taylor is unhinged and Jon is incredibly pastoral. They discuss a common trope about boring Masses that Taylor no longer agrees with &amp; how auxiliary bishops are pretty much made up. This leads to questioning if some of the Church's rules are pharisaical or not. They also discuss their best and worst dates ever in preparation for Valentine's Day.</itunes:subtitle>

  <description>Usually it's Jon bringing the hot takes but Taylor has some things to get off his chest this week. Spicy! 
They kick it off with a conversation about the phrase "If you're bored at Mass, you'll be bored in Heaven." It's a common phrase from people in ministry and online personalities but Taylor doesn't agree with it anymore and he explains why.
Next, they discuss how strange the idea of auxiliary bishops actually is and Taylor argues that Bishops making up rules for their comfort makes him wonder why he has to follow random Catholic rules. Are the rules Pharisaical? The convo includes thoughts on fasting requirements and...NFP!?!?
Finally, as this is the last episode before Valentine's Day, Jon &amp;amp; Taylor both share their best and worst ever date stories and how they met their wives.
Enjoy this episode with unhinged Taylor and incredibly pastoral Jon!

Anthony gets vindication for looking dumb in said game by giving great answers to some tough questions about the priesthood and prayer. Enjoy!

  <description>Jon said this was his favorite episode in a while! Taylor kicks off the show with how he's been thinking deeply about the internet and how we take it for granted. It really is incredible the things we can do with it and we never really give it a second thought.
Next, they discuss the parish program growing in popularity, Alpha. Taylor's parish is starting it this week and Jon has led it a few times at his parish so Taylor picks his brain about it. What worked, what didn't and the importance of the work of pre-evangelization.
To close the show, they play a new game called "Catholic Fantasy Draft." They each drafted Catholic heroes from the Scriptures and Church History to play on their fantasy football team. It was a grand ol time!

  <description>Allison Sullivan cohosts what is guaranteed to be one of our best two shows of 2022 thus far! One of the bedrocks of this show is Scripture and we realized we haven't focused on it in a while so this whole episode is focused on the Bible. 
We kick it off with a new insight into typology of Baptism in the Old Testament that Taylor never knew about for 30+ years and that made him feel dumb. They also explain what typology is and why it's not typography like Taylor thought...
Our guest this week is Dr. Michael Dauphinais. He is the head of the Theology department at Ave Maria University(where Taylor's wife went to school). He and Taylor discuss biblical answers to some typical questions about Catholicism in a way that will actually be helpful with your friends and not just make you look smart amongst other Catholics.
Finally, Allison rejoins the show for the return of our Life Verse game where we randomly find a bible verse and apply it to someone's life. Hilarity ensues!

  <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.
To close the show, Fr. Anthony invents a new Christmas themed game for Taylor called "What Child is This?" It's another game for Taylor to look dumb. We hope you enjoy this episode. Happy New Year!

  <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!

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>Taylor starts the show by getting after Jon for not sharing two big announcements with him. He then shares two new things in his life: one of which is hilarious and the other frustrating.
They both share their experiences of being home with their kids without their wives and how different those two experiences were.
And finally, they close the show with a segment of "cold takes." Some people like hot takes, but these takes are so random that no one could accuse them of being hot. 
We hope you enjoy this episode and your Thanksgiving!

  <description>Allison Sullivan &amp;amp; Taylor Schroll kick off the show with a discussion of two words we often get confused: charity &amp;amp; love. They have the same root word, but have come to mean different things today.
Next, they play their game of confessing strange or outlandish "sins" to one another and giving each other ridiculous penance for them. It's a game around the Sacrament of Confession ultimately meant to lead you to a real confessional.
Finally, they close the show with a discussion on growing deeper in friendship and the trust that that takes. We hope you enjoy this week's episode!

  <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!

    <![CDATA[<p>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&#39;t do things we need to now, we will have to deal with the consequences later. He and Taylor chat about managing these seasons.</p>

<p>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&#39;t be any more different!</p>

<p>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.</p>

<p>We hope you enjoy this week&#39;s show! Have a great week, friends! </p>

  <description>Taylor recently went to Iowa and Liv spent over two weeks in New York. They trade stories. Then Taylor shares his experience of going to a Texas A&amp;amp;M football game in town even though he isn't an Aggie. He talks about his experience of their traditions, how he was welcomed in and how it made him think of the Church.
They close out the show discussing personal hygiene. Taylor has questions and it leads to a discussion on the things we all may have missed growing up and how this effects our spiritual lives. Enjoy!

  <description>Allison Sullivan cohosts and announces the relaunch of her podcast! Sinner Saint Sister is back and better than ever with great guests, now on video and part of the Forte Catholic Podcast Network. 
She &amp;amp; Taylor discuss how Jesus would social media. Would He be on it? What would He say? How would he conduct himself? Insightful conversation with moments of hilarity.
They close the show by discussing the body positivity movement that has become popular over the past couple years with Lizzo at the center of it all. They discuss the good parts of that movement but also where it falls short. This is ultimately a discussion on how we as Catholics should approach times where we are overweight.

  <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 shares a story about surprising his wife when they were dating and singing a song to her based on Song of Songs. It's a very intense romance book in the middle of the Old Testament. This leads to a conversation with cohost Liv Harrison about what it means for our relationship with the works of God and the God of works.
Next, they introduce a new game called "Punishment Fits the Crime." They take turns being the penitent and the priest as one shares an odd thing to confess in reconciliation and the other responds with a fitting penance. It's hilarious and will make much more sense when you listen (we promise!)
To close out the show, they each answer random questions from our Pod Decks. This adds some spontaneity to the show when the hosts have to answer random questions from a deck of cards. The possibilities are endless!
We hope you enjoy this week's episode. :)

  <itunes:subtitle>Taylor shares how his terrible experience in Chili's got turned around by the staff correcting the mistakes and what that means for us. He forces Allison Sullivan to play her "favorite" game, Freestyle Preaching. Finally, they discuss how we don't really know the full power of the impact we can have on those around us.</itunes:subtitle>

  <description>Taylor shares a story with Allison about a terrible experience he had in Chili's with his family that was instantly turned around into a great experience because of how the staff responded and made up for their mistakes. He was able to find God in Chili's that night
Next, he forces Allison to play one of the listener's favorite games that she absolutely hates: Freestyle Preaching! Each host gives the other three words that they have to incorporate into a 60 second message about faith. She loves spontaneity!
Finally, Taylor shares a lesson he learned from a consistent theme in many recent movies. We really have more impact on the people around than we may think.

  <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 :)
We hope you enjoyed this episode! If so, please subscribe so you don't miss the next one :)

    <![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>

  <itunes:subtitle>Taylor &amp; Liv are together in studio and kick off the show sharing awesome things God did in their lives during childhood. Kathryn Whitaker joins in the convo as they share foundations of who they are that sustain them even through the toughest of times. Finally, Taylor tries to talk with Liv about how salvation would work in the multiverse but she just gets confused. Enjoy! :)</itunes:subtitle>

  <description>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 :)

  <description>Jon "Bearded" Blevins cohosts. We start the show with the story of why he recently had to get stitches in his hand and then he and Taylor each share the story of how they proposed to their wives.
The next segment introduces the "Biblical Fantasy Draft" where Jon and Taylor each select the best biblical characters to run Forte Catholic: CEO, CFO, HR, etc. A really fun segment with some insight into which characters from the Bible would be great at running a modern Catholic media non-profit. Plus, you might learn about some biblical characters you've never heard of before.
Taylor tries to close the show by sounding smart with a discussion on behavioral cognition that he learned from "The Happiness Lab" podcast. It's about how we mimic the people we are around and this concept's importance in our faith growth.
Enjoy!

  <description>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?!?!

    <![CDATA[<p>We have all heard that we should be like God in every way. But Taylor says there are certain times that we shouldn&#39;t and shares one of those with Fr. Anthony to kick off the show.</p>

<p>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.</p>

<p>Finally, Taylor makes the claim that he can make a spiritual point out of Nickelback&#39;s hit &quot;Photograph.&quot; Do you think he pulled it off?!?!</p>

  <description>Liv Harrison cohosts a tremendous episode tackling a wide variety of topics! She found a Hollywood star of the nickname Taylor has given her on the show. Taylor shares some of his favorite memes including attacking "daddy God", some that give great life advice and one that makes Taylor look like Iron Man.
Our guests debaters this week are Kaitlyn Facista of Tea with Tolkien and David Bates of Pints with Jack. They debate once and for all who is the better author and man: Tolkien or Lewis. It is a thrilling and fun debate that you don't want to miss! 
The show wraps up with Taylor sharing a VERY long comment he got on Facebook about how he needs to repent and prepare himself for the Apocalypse. Fun stuff! He and Liv have a laugh and talk about what Catholics believe about the last day.

Kris Frank was in town so Taylor invited him over for an interview. He shares key insights on finding hope even in the darkest moment.
To close out the show, Taylor shares a stat that shows how big the global Church really is and the role the US plays in it. The stat may shock you!

  <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>This week's episode is brought to you live from Liv Harrison's studio in Houston, Tx! Taylor talks about how Liv ruined the beatific vision for him(and she doesn't even know what it means!). He also shares some shower revelations about all the repetitive things we all have to do every day.
Next, they bring back the Chicken Soup for the Schroll segment where they share positive &amp;amp; uplifting stories. This week includes a story that doesn't seem positive at first &amp;amp; a random coffee shop encounter.
Finally, Taylor has another issue with how people are interpreting a certain Gospel story. He thinks we've been missing a huge point and Liv finally gets to be right ;)

  <description>Forte Catholic Live in Pittsburgh! 
Gambling, Texting &amp;amp; Effeminacy w/the Sciarappas
Catholic Entertainment, Catholic Faith, Catholic Comedy
Taylor flew to Pittsburgh to celebrate Fr. Anthony's 5th anniversary and recorded this episode in the Sciarappa home while they were together. They kick off the episode by talking about their time together, including Fr. Anthony's first ever trip to a casino and the Catholic view on gambling.
Next, there's a blast from the past with a letter to a mom from a teenager asking for text messaging in 2008. Reminisce about this strange occurrence 13 years ago and what it has to do with Catholicism.
Finally, Taylor has a new pet peeve: people using the word effeminacy as a derogatory term. He &amp;amp; Fr. Anthony discuss where this term came from, how it's being used and our options on how to move forward.
P.S. Hands down the best commercials we've ever done! Huge thanks to Nick &amp;amp; Riley for letting us invade their home!

  <description>Liv Harrison is in studio for the first time in 16 months! Taylor &amp;amp; her in the same room always brings some comedy and drama lol. They kick off the show by talking about summer: Taylor's recent tubing trip, a Summer activity Liv has never done &amp;amp; the return of summer blockbusters.
Next, Taylor saw a Beyond Meat commercial and Arby's commercial back to back and it made him think about the Church (huh?). In a quickly changing world, the Catholic Church (and Arby's) remain steadfast.
Finally, Taylor reveals one of his biggest pet peeves: people not wanting to improve. He shares stories of how he's seen this play out professionally, spiritually and in coaching. He compliments Liv deeply in the segment and also lashes out at her. Perfect way to end the show. Enjoy!

  <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!

  <description>Edmund Mitchell cohosts and tries to be Taylor's "Joseph" by interpreting his strange dreams. What is dreaming? Do they tell us something real? Can you sin in dreams? Almost none of these questions are answered, but they're attempts are entertaining.
The second segment, we used Taylor's 2nd grader's new Catholic MadLibs book to try to create comedy. It bombed, which some of you think is the best comedy. If not, we apologize for one of our strangest segments ever.
Finally, Edmund gets to try "Freestyle Preaching" for the first time. Each host gives the other 3 words they have to include in a 60 second sermon. Some of them turn out great and some of them are Edmund's attempts. Enjoy!

  <description>Fr. Anthony cohosts what is probably our funniest show of the year! We kick it off by bringing back the old Life Verse segment to decide what the Life Verse for the show is. This leads to a conversation on if Mary could have possibly influenced the Gospels...hmm...
Next, Taylor shares a hot take about virtue signaling he's been holding back for a while. Should Christians bash virtue signaling or champion it? Strap in...this one's a wild ride!!! 
The final segment is really really special. We have two more videos of Fr. Anthony making mistakes in Mass AND BOY ARE THESE HILARIOUS! We watch the videos and then ask him to explain himself lol. All good fun :)

    <![CDATA[<p>Fr. Anthony cohosts what is probably our funniest show of the year! We kick it off by bringing back the old Life Verse segment to decide what the Life Verse for the show is. This leads to a conversation on if Mary could have possibly influenced the Gospels...hmm...</p>

<p>Next, Taylor shares a hot take about virtue signaling he&#39;s been holding back for a while. Should Christians bash virtue signaling or champion it? Strap in...this one&#39;s a wild ride!!! </p>

<p>The final segment is really really special. We have two more videos of Fr. Anthony making mistakes in Mass AND BOY ARE THESE HILARIOUS! We watch the videos and then ask him to explain himself lol. All good fun :)</p>

  <description>The show kicks off with a hilarious terrible review of Taylor and the show. He tells John what was said about him, who came to his rescue and...how the mean reviewer was...right??? This leads to a discussion on reviewing things in general and how we can use it as a way to shed light into dark places.
Next, they play the new Imitate, Intercess or Ignore game where they each give each other three saints and have to choose what they will do with each. Hilarity and learning a bit about the saints at the same time...and maybe some who didn't actually exist...
Finally, Taylor shares an odd story about some Scripture verses he found in a restroom. It was...strange...to say the least. Enjoy!!!

  <description>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)

    <![CDATA[<p>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.</p>

<p>Next, they talk about friendship and integrity. First, how we are all friends with people we don&#39;t agree with on everything and that&#39;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?</p>

<p>Finally, Taylor shares a recent breakthrough in his spiritual life after reading a new book by Blessed is She.(don&#39;t worry, we explain why he was reading it)<br>
Enjoy!</p>

  <description>We're still celebrating Easter here at Forte Catholic! Taylor &amp;amp; Fr. Anthony Sciarappa discuss the Easter season they've had so far. Taylor shares his strange insights into the events of Holy Week &amp;amp; Divine Mercy Sunday. He also has a lot of questions that came up during that span like how was something Jesus said during his trial not a lie?
They both also share how the Lord spoke to them during this amazing season of the Church. 
Finally, Taylor shares about his son's first confession, how hilarious it ended up being and a possible fake relic he prayed with during it. As always, Fr. Anthony is there to rescue the show with his answers and trying to reign Taylor in.

  <description>Taylor &amp;amp; Allison Sullivan had quite a day together last week in our little Texas town. We were both at a local track meet and then there was a mass shooting in town and just when it couldn't get any crazier, it started to hail. They discuss this crazy day and finding some meaning in it. They also lighten the mood with news from Taylor that has Allison in hysterics.
We also introduce a new game called Imitate, Intercess, Ignore. In a Catholic version of a classic game, they each get three saint names and have to decide which category to put each one. This one's a hit y'all!!!
Finally, they have a discussion about getting older and a strange injury Allison accidentally gave herself. We hope you enjoy this laughter filled episode!

  <description>Jon Blevins cohosts our Easter episode which kicks off with off the wall insights about Easter you won't get anywhere else: like Jesus being a superhero and possibly messing with the Apostles with his powers.
Fr. Clint Ressler, the Catholic chaplain for the Houston Texans, joins Taylor to discuss his favorite NFL team, how Catholicism and professional sports mix and some wild stories from Fr. Clint's time with the team.
In the final segment, Jon and Taylor discuss a new concept for Taylor that apparently wasn't new to Jon called "the illusion of explanatory depth." They quiz each other on random topics and then get to the point. Enjoy!

    <![CDATA[<p>Jon Blevins cohosts our Easter episode which kicks off with off the wall insights about Easter you won&#39;t get anywhere else: like Jesus being a superhero and possibly messing with the Apostles with his powers.</p>

<p>Fr. Clint Ressler, the Catholic chaplain for the Houston Texans, joins Taylor to discuss his favorite NFL team, how Catholicism and professional sports mix and some wild stories from Fr. Clint&#39;s time with the team.</p>

<p>In the final segment, Jon and Taylor discuss a new concept for Taylor that apparently wasn&#39;t new to Jon called &quot;the illusion of explanatory depth.&quot; They quiz each other on random topics and then get to the point. Enjoy! </p>

  <description>Amanda Vernon came to town and cohosted with Taylor this week. The show kicked off as they shared crazy travel stories, odd dating/breakup stories(including one of them dating a future priest) and strange marriage insights.
Next, they talk about their vastly different singing careers(one being successful and the other being Taylor). This leads to a conversation about nervousness, overcoming it and the comfort that comes with practice.

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.

  <itunes:subtitle>Taylor &amp; Jon look to the Scriptures to find out why our spiritual lives have been so difficult recently. They also play Christian Podcast Roulette which autogenerates podcast names. Finally, Taylor gripes about how everyone says you need to wake up early to be successful. It's hogwash!</itunes:subtitle>

  <description>Taylor &amp;amp; Jon kick off this week's episode with a conversation on how it's often hard to ask for and receive help, especially in the things we pride ourselves in. We look at Simon helping Jesus carry his cross and the Our Father for insight into how our spiritual lives seem to be harder to take care of these days.
The second segment brings us to Christian Podcast Roulette. This is a game Taylor found of the interwebs that generates a Christian podcast name for you. Taylor and each of the cohosts get a new name for their podcasts. Hilarious! 
Finally, Taylor gripes about how everyone says you need to wake up early to be successful. It's hogwash! They discuss morning routines and finding what works for you.
Enjoy!

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.

  <description>This week's episode is brought to you in conjunction with the Seek Conference hosted by FOCUS.
Liv Harrison cohosts as she and Taylor reminisce about the good, bad and ugly of their time in college. How did they grow during college? What would they tell their college selves now? How did Taylor get a professor fired? All these questions answered and more!
They also play a college edition of Freestyle Preaching where they have to come up with minute long sermons on the spot.
It was a blast to be a part of a FOCUS conference for the second straight year. Find out more about the leading Catholic campus ministry organization at https://www.focus.org/.

  <description>Jon "Bearded" Blevins cohosts a show that has hotter topics than usual. We tackle the pro-life issue and tithing for the first time in the history of the show. 
In regards to the pro-life topic, Taylor has been frustrated with how the pro-life movement has argued things and finally heard a new way of having this discussion that he found helpful.
Tithing has always been an awkward topic, especially for someone who works in the non-profit world. But we figured we would finally tackle it by sharing our thoughts on how to best share our time, talents and money.
Taylor also led a retreat IN PERSON and had an epiphany about how things we often hear like "God loves you" starts to lose it's meaning over time and how we need to refocus on the basic truths of our faith.

  <description>Taylor starts off the show by asking Fr. Anthony to recount his homily. This leads to a discussion of when holy people have absolutely no idea what's going on but can still do good things in the world whilst clueless.
Taylor is fed up with cancel culture on both ends of the spectrum. We can't seem to figure it out as a unit. We wanna cancel some forever and anoint some we canceled recently. It's all very confusing. This conundrum leads to a fine discussion
The show wraps with the age old problem of trying to do something good and having failures/growing pains along the way. Taylor tells Fr. Anthony why he's not mad at him...but very disappointed.

  <description>A Texas miracle! It snowed in central Texas where Taylor and Allison live and they share how wonderful it was for them and their families! Taylor also gives an update on "The Decision" he made on last month's episode with Allison. Was it worth it?!?
Then they talk about CUSSIN! Is cussing a sin? Does it hinder our growth in holiness? Can a saint cuss? It's an interesting conversation that probably a bit different than what you heard in youth group.
Finally, Taylor shares the "State of the Podcast" by giving an update on how the show is doing well and where it isn't. Also, Allison got a nerdy mom van.

<p>Finally, Taylor shares the &quot;State of the Podcast&quot; by giving an update on how the show is doing well and where it isn&#39;t. Also, Allison got a nerdy mom van.</p>

  <itunes:subtitle>In an attempt to rein Liv in, Taylor tries a new approach to the first segment by sharing some of his favorite quotes he's heard recently. It doesn't rein her in but it's entertaining none-the-less. Liv then shares about her new positivity challenge she's running for over 300 people and Taylor asks when she became positive. They argue. Only they can make a conversation about positivity negative lol. Finally they play a game that doesn't go anything like Taylor expected.</itunes:subtitle>

  <itunes:subtitle>Jesus played against Mary in a basketball game and the winner determined how we should be praying. Taylor(half a grad theology degree) has a wild theory and Jon "Bearded" Blevins(full grad theology degree (*online*) tries to correct him. We also brought back two long forgotten segments and had an absolute blast! We rate recent hot takes from our friends at Clerically Speaking and learn that Jon truly has a gift from God in Life Verse where the Lord speaks directly through us to share a message with someone. </itunes:subtitle>

  <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>Allison Sullivan cohosts our Thanksgiving episode that kicks off with a recent revelation about how we relate to God individually. 
We ask if us from five years ago would be proud of who we are today and how this exercise is important to know where we stand and how we can grow.
The final segment may be one of Taylor's favorites in the history of the show. They discuss the quote "A well trained intuition is a good servant and a poor master." Both share their thoughts on how this quote applies to them and how certain things in regards to it drive them crazy!
This episode had it all: comedy, insight, laughter, deep thoughts, margaritas. What more could you ask for!?!?! 
From all of us at Forte Catholic, we hope you and yours have a blessed Thanksgiving.

  <description>Liv Harrison went to Disney World in the midst of a global pandemic and Taylor has a segment's worth of questions for her. They argue(what's new?)
Taylor coaches at the local Catholic school and their football team had a historic win this weekend! He shares with Liv what happened and they have a conversation about the balance between healthy vs. unhealthy pride.
Finally, Taylor shares that his week wasn't all roses and complains about his first world problems and how his kids apparently view him.

  <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.

  <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!

    <![CDATA[<p>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 &quot;Chicken Soup for the Schroll&quot; with positive and heart-warming stories.</p>

<p>At long last, guests are once again a thing on the show as Mark Shea joins us to share the Church&#39;s best kept secret(oooo intriguing). It was a really helpful conversation in light of what our country is going through this week.</p>

<p>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!</p>

  <description>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.

  <itunes:subtitle>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!</itunes:subtitle>

    <![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>

  <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>Jon "Bearded" Blevins cohosts what he dubbed the "hangover" episode after Ep 200's celebrations. We discuss some things like sports, dining out and schools opening back up and getting just a taste of "normalcy". 
In the second segment, Jon gets to judge three new metaphors about confession that Taylor came up with. They range from terrible to maybe great?? You decide!
Finally, the guys share stories of intense emotion ranging from embarrassment to rage to fear. We had a good few laughs and might have even attempted to make a point. Enjoy!

  <description>200th Episode Celebration!!!
Fr. Anthony, Liv &amp;amp; Jon all join the show together for the first time to mark the occasion. We take some time to get to know each other and air greivances about working with Taylor. 
Then Taylor decides which cohost he likes the best by making them all play "Freestyle Preaching," everyone's new favorite game where the contestants have 60 seconds to preach with three random words Taylor gives them.
Finally, Fr. Anthony comes up with a segment of ranking things where we all argue best movies franchises, video games and BBQ.
This couldn't have been any more fun getting the crew all together! We hope you enjoy it as much as we enjoyed making it :)

  <description>Bearded Blevins cohosts and Taylor has a bone to pick with him ;) They debated about what quality time is, how love languages affect how we see things and what they both learned from their silly argument.
Taylor is joined by Sam Rocha in the wake of his recent debate on socialism with Trent Horn to have a follow up conversation about not only the debate itself but also what the "Catholic Left" means and what it doesn't. 
Jon rejoins the show for the final segment to discuss how we use our time: the over-emphasis on busyness and the ever elusive "balance" we're all looking for.

  <description>Fr. Anthony cohosts and gets complimented right off the bat so he knew he was in for a heck of a show lol. They respond to people saying dumb things about priests, Taylor's wins and losses as a person and father this week &amp;amp; much more.
Our guest this week is Fr. Harrison Ayre so you could say this episode is Forte Speaking. Or Clerically Forte. Or Clerically Catholic. Or whichever you think is funniest. Fr. Anthony shares duel citizen ship as a host of both shows so we had a little fun at his expense and then Fr. Harrison shared how we can all be smarter. Good times!

  <description>In the first segment, I finish a three part series over the last three episodes on Jesus appearing to His disciples after the Resurrection. This week's passage speaks of Jesus and Peter on the beach.
In the second segment, I welcome highly anticipated guest, Anthony D'Ambrosio. He is the co-founder of Catholic Creatives and speaks about the importance of art and collaboration in the Church today. We also talk about the new film coming from the Catholic Creatives community on the beatitudes called "8beats."
In the final segment, we introduce a new idea called "Unpublished Worship Songs." These are songs that Taylor has written about strange and obscure passages from the Bible that have never, EVER been put into song. This is a segment you absolutely don't want to miss. You will find yourself laughing and never being bored listening to the Scriptures in Mass again!

  <description>In today's first segment, I explain some crazy things that happened right before the show and share some of the key points from a cool devotional I just finished on the Youversion Bible App.
In the second segment, I interview Toni Hendricks about the RCIA. This is the process of becoming Catholic so whether you are a Catholic and want to learn more about this treasure of the Church and how you can help or if you aren't Catholic and have questions about the faith and want to know more about the Church, this is the interview for you.
In the final segment, I am joined by Christopher Dowling to talk about the Young Adult Listening Session he and I both attended with both of Austin's Bishops. This was a tremendous opportunity the Bishops held to know how to best serve the young Church.

  <description>We had a Forte Catholic record 9 people in studio for the recording of this episode! 
Last month, Ablaze Ministries took Junior High students to camp. Here, I interview 3 campers, two of their parents and a high school counselor on the impact camp and youth ministry have had on their lives from each of their unique perspectives. 
I also pit the youth vs. the parents in an epic trivia game called "Taylor Swift or Lamentations"(DownloadYouthMinistry.com) where I read a line and they have to guess who said it. Hilarity ensued. 
If you are in ministry, love youth ministry, have kids or have fond memories of your time as a young person in the Church, you will enjoy this episode.

  <description>The show was pre-recorded this week as I am currently leading a Junior High Summer Camp! In the spirit of summer camp, we talked pre-evangelization, what fun has to do with faith and how events like this can really be an avenue to bring people to Christ.
So often, we try to catechize people who haven't been evangelized and evangelize people without making a human connection with them first. In this episode we explore how we can bring Christ to others no matter where they are in their journey with him.
I am also joined by Vern Laborde from Deer Creek Camp to hear how they impact the lives of young people in a huge way each summer! Hear her stories, insights and her love for camp!
In the final segment, we dive a little deeper into the topic of prayer. So many of us struggle with prayer and I will walk through two stories from Scripture that can help us when we don't feel like praying.

  <description>Episode 28 of the show covered a wide range of topics... 
Segment 1-Easter Joy
First show during the Easter Season! I talked about my Holy Week experience and we did the "Mass Text" segment where we took a deeper dive into the Gospel reading from Easter Sunday and what it means for the times where we don't understand what God is doing.
Segment 2-Andrew Laubacher
In one of my favorite interviews, I talk with Andrew about his music ministry, extreme conversion of heart in his teen years and one of his favorite topics, the Holy Spirit. 
Segment 3-Ministry Madness Update
It has been a week since we launched the bracket of ministry leaders from across the US deciding once and for all "which ministry leader would win in a boxing competition." In this segment we finish introducing all of the candidates and I give a sneak peak into how some of the matchups are going.  Special Guest: Andrew Laubacher.

  <description>This episode had one topic and one topic only: Vocations. Choosing to follow Christ is the most important decision we will ever make; discerning and living our vocation is the second. Whether you have been married, a priest, or a religious for many years or are single and discerning your vocation, this is the episode for you. 
In the first segment, I share what I learned from a recent talk I heard from the Vocations Director of the Austin Diocese. He brought a great pamphlet for those discerning vocations that I share from to start off the show. It tackles many of the common objections to living the priesthood or religious life with a little comedy along the way.
In the second segment, I am joined by Dean Ouellette "The Married Catholic Guy." He shares about how his faith took him from the brink of divorce twice to having a happy and loving marriage. He now shares his story and encouragement with other married couples to prevent and help heal broken marriages.. For more from Dean, check out his website.
In the final segment, I tackle the big question for those discerning their vocation: "How do I know what God wants me to do and how do I prepare for my vocation." By sharing the story of my discernment process and with the help of those who commented on my social media feeds answering "What are the qualities of a good spouse or priest/religious?" I hope to help you along and put you at peace in your discernment.

  <description>Here in Episode 18, I start by discussing the Holy Spirit. By looking at the story of Pentecost, we explore together how the Apostles receiving the Holy Spirit completely transformed them and what this means for modern day Catholics. 
In segment 2, listen to an interview with Matt Arismendez, the leader of Tongues of Fire Ministries in San Antonio. He is a mentor of mine and it was a pleasure to have him on the air to talk about the importance of commitment. 
In the final 20 minutes, we do the Mass Text segment, looking at the Gospel reading from Monday about Jesus healing a possessed man. It is quite an interesting story that has meant a lot to me in a stressful week. 
Tune in and enjoy! If you like it, please share it with your friends.
