The Unlikely Catholic Podcast

This week, Chris and Steve talk confession.  There are an incredible amount of benefits that come with regular confession attendance and we think Catholics are missing them.  Tune in and we think you'll be very motivated after hearing this one!  ...and remember, sharing is caring so if you enjoy the episodes, please consider sharing with friends and family.

In this episode, Chris and Steve interview author, Lou Bruno.   Lou's book, "The Love of San Demetrio", is an authentic read into family struggles and travels but contains some beautiful and touching moments, including Lou's travels to Rome.  In it, he discovers how connecting to the physical world also helps with faith.  To learn more about Lou, check out his site here:  www.byloubruno.com

This week's guest, Mike Lynch, talks about the importance of fraternity.  There is still clearly a need for fellowship among Catholic men and the Knights of Columbus offers exactly that.  For more information, feel free to call Mike at (412) 795 7679 or visit https://kofcpennsylvania.org/

This is an important episode with the holiday season upon us.  We need to understand what does it me when we say we are thankful and to whom are we being thankful.  A great episode to get you ready for the holidays and something to talk about with the family! 

In this week's episode, Chris and Steve talk about the challenges of 'letting go'.  But what does that even mean?   Tune in to understand what it means to 'let go' and why it is important.

This week we interview Doug Derda.  Doug is Knight of Columbus and a 'digital Jedi' who understands the pros and cons of the digital media age and its role in evangelizing.  It can either bring people to God or totally corrupt them!  Doug helps us learn how to navigate the dangers of today's saturated digital era.  You can also learn about Doug's efforts with the Knights here:  https://southhillsknights.com/

This week, Chris, Chris, and Steve are joined by seminarian, Chris Baker.  This is a truly powerful conversation on what we need to do to continue growing the church.  The discussion isn't limited to clergy being the shepherds either, you will soon realize we all have a leadership calling with something to offer.

Have you ever heard of the term, "Servant Leader"?  It is has become important in many organizations but did you know it is essentially biblically derived?  Learn more as we discuss the Servant Leader in this week's podcast with Chris, Chris, and Steve.

In this week's episode, Chris and Steve discuss the importance of patriotism.  A lot of people do not understand the biblical principle of being loyal to one's leadership/country.  However, there is a difference to blind loyalty to immoral leaders and that which is required of good citizens.  This is a very interesting episode sure to make you think about why it is important to be patriotic.  

This is an exciting episode where we dive into Marian devotion, the rosary, and the importance of intercession and why it is still misunderstood.

This week we interview Mike Aquilina.  Mike is the award-winning author of more than seventy books on Catholic history, doctrine, and devotion. His works have been translated into many languages. He has hosted eleven television series and several documentary films and is a frequent guest on Catholic radio.  This is an absolutely eye-opening episode that I think exposes what many Catholics, unfortunately, do not know.

In this episode we show how St. Joseph, even though hardly mentioned in the Bible, demonstrated some key traits that anyone, not just men, should posses.  As usual, this is a lively conversation and we welcome the feedback...in fact, feel free to reach out to us at 412 605 9074 and tell us what you think!

This week we have a very spirited round table discussion with Dave and Chris on topics ranging from the importance of marriage prep to why people are often feeling pushed away by the church.  Join us this week and buckle up because this is a very good episode with a lot of curve balls!

This week we talk faith and fitness with Rich "Richie" Earls.  A spirited conversation on the importance of staying strong both spiritually and physically...there's a lot here to take in with really good conversation.  Enjoy and God bless!

This week we interview Chris Reibold, host of the podcast, "A Very Different Catholic Podcast".  Chris , aka “The Saint Story Guy,” is a Catholic writer and Knights of Columbus Lecturer.  In this episode we touch on a variety of subjects from forgiveness to the saints and their struggles.  Chris is a wonderful speaker and this is a very entertaining and enlightening show.
