In this raw and unscripted live session simulcasted to Substack and Instagram , I dive into Cardinal Burke’s recent appeal to Pope Leo XIV to lift the restrictions on the Traditional Latin Mass—and what I really think is going on behind the scenes. Spoiler: Church politics isn’t always what it seems. (NOTE: This is re-published to The Catholic Experience from The Live Sessions)

I break down the historical and spiritual context of the TLM controversy, share a personal story about how a reverent Novus Ordo Mass once rescued my faltering faith, and challenge both traditionalist and modernist assumptions about the liturgy. Plus, I explain why holding too tightly to any “spiritual crutch” stops us from moving forward—and how we must move beyond it to encounter the deeper reality of the mass and the Catholic experience.
This episode kicks off my new podcast section, The Live Sessions—a gritty, honest, and totally unscripted window into Catholic life, commentary, and conviction.
