Summary: The challenges and consequences of speaking the truth as a Catholic, highlighting the inevitability of facing hatred similar to what Jesus experienced. The speaker reflects on how being outspoken about Catholic beliefs can attract criticism and persecution, paralleling it to modern-day 'cancel culture.' The script welcomes a viewer with a surprising username, emphasizing openness and blessing. It delves into Jesus' ultimate sacrifice for embodying the truth and contrasts the reception of Catholic and Protestant speakers. The speaker emphasizes the unique opposition Catholics face, regardless of their expertise or knowledge.

Diving way-down into a complex discussion of truth, justice, and gender from a Catholic perspective. In this insightful episode, I react to a conversation between Candace Owens and Nick Cannon about objective truth and societal beliefs. The episode explores the distinctions between knowledge, belief, and whether emotion is how we discern truth. I also emphasizes the importance of aligning with Truth, Reality and God's revelation. From tackling controversial subjects like gender identity to critiquing secular thinking, this video provides a thorough commentary on contemporary issues while maintaining a faithful Catholic viewpoint.

Five years after being devastated by fire, Notre Dame was recently reopened after a massive renovation project. But can we call this a "restoration" of what once was? And how does this symbolize what we see all over the Church, and even in our own lives as Catholics?
Ultimately in this episode I emphasize the point that God is actively renewing the Church that was ravaged by the "fire" of modernistic and secularistic culture and ideas.

Hello Adventurers! Today, I'm going deep into a throw[way]back episode called "Jesus Cancels the Debt" where I talk about the awe-inspiring sacrament of confession. Ever wondered why confession is so crucial for Catholics? How Jesus, with his eternal sacrifice, continues to cancel our sins debt every time we confess? Join me as I unravel the significance of confession through a captivating analogy you might not have heard before.

Description: In this special episode I dive into the case of Father Carlos Martins, a well-known priest and exorcist, who is currently under investigation for alleged inappropriate conduct involving minors during a St. Jude Relic tour in Illinois. I discusses the investigation, how it broke, how it developed, and the subsequent media narrative, and use the opportunity to question the integrity of some in Catholic media, especially independent sources like The Pillar. The episode also covers reactions from various quarters, including a strange tweet from Mel Gibson and comments on the reporting methods of different Catholic news outlets. Be careful about rushing to judgment.
