Are You Accidentally Letting the Devil in Your Home? w/ Dr. John Cuddeback

July 2, 2026 • 72 mins
The Culture of Death is not random. Today we discuss the intelligence behind it and how your home is the first target. We dive deep into why you are so busy it hurts, and why you try so hard to “keep work at work” without realizing this is hurting your family. Feeling as if you are being pulled in a hundred different directions and looking for one simple solution is not the answer. The devil slowly seeps into ...

No. 1 Way to Unlock God's Blessings in Your Life

June 25, 2026 • 74 mins
We hand our identity to the things we own. The house, the car, the title in the email signature, the number in the account. We see a man who is thirty seven and retired and decide he must have life figured out, and we measure ourselves against a pile we know nothing about. Underneath a lot of it is fear, the fear of losing what we have and the fear of who we would be without it. Devin and I sat down to talk about money, and we ende...

3 Things the World is Stealing from Every Father

June 18, 2026 • 86 mins
The world is stripping three things away from every Catholic man. Not in ways you'd recognize as an attack but disguised as a busy evening, a competing priority, or a reasonable excuse. Then one day you wake up and realize something essential is gone. In this episode, we sit down to name three things the world, the flesh, and the devil are working together to take from you: your role as Kustos, what it means to be the guardian an...

A Fortune 250 company's Salesman of the Year. Devoted husband. Faithful Catholic father and a 17-year addiction no one knew about, including his wife. John Edwards spent nearly two decades living two lives at once. He closed sales by day, chased down his dealer by afternoon, and kept the mask on at home so well that no one knew. It held together right up until the morning he sat in a jail cell on Good Friday with nothing left to co...

4 Reasons Satan Hates St. Joseph

June 4, 2026 • 77 mins
The Church calls Saint Joseph the Terror of Demons. A carpenter. A foster father. A man who speaks not a single word in Scripture. And hell is terrified of him. In this episode, John Heinen sits down with Devin Schadt, executive director of the Fathers of Saint Joseph, to unpack the four reasons Satan hates Saint Joseph. These are the virtues that send demons running. The same virtues every Catholic man is called to build. We dis...

The Drift that's Killing Catholic Men

May 28, 2026 • 74 mins
🟢 FREE Handmade Rosary This Month for those joining CG+ https://catholicgentlemanplus.com/rosary Drift It accumulates in the gap between who we intended to be and who we've actually become. Recent studies show that 63% of men wish they didn't have to be adults, and 41% of men between 24 and 29 don't feel like adults at all. That's not a personality quirk. That's a crisis. This week, John and Devin trace how we got here, from G...

Raised in abuse, living a wayward life, he and his wife stumbled into the Catholic Church, and he settled comfortably into being lukewarm. His marriage came to the edge. Then at a men's conference...

Why 90% of Catholic Kids Leave the Faith (w/ Dr. Greg Popcak)

May 7, 2026 • 66 mins
This stat should shake every Catholic father awake: 85 to 90 percent of kids raised in Catholic homes will leave the faith by adulthood. We've somehow accepted that as normal. It's not. In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Greg Popcak, a Catholic counselor with over 30 years in the trenches and author of more than 20 books, to talk about what the families who beat those odds are actually doing differently. Greg walks me through ...

Exorcist Fr. Ripperger: Raising Your Sons to Be Men

April 26, 2026 • 63 mins
Exorcist priest Fr. Chad Ripperger grew up working in his father's diesel mechanics shop, where he learned that reality doesn't care what you think or how you feel. A bolt either fits or it doesn't. A machine is either fixed or it isn't. And a man is either being formed or he's being stunted. In this conversation, Fr. Ripperger unpacks why young men today are trapped in adolescence, what the curse of Adam has to do with effeminacy,...

In this episode, Devin Schadt and I walk through a practical seven-point framework for building a morning routine that actually holds.

No. 1 Relationship Expert Reveals the Secret to Real Intimacy (w/ Adam Lane Smith)

Men today are doing everything they’ve been told, working hard, providing, staying faithful, yet they still feel disconnected or confused from their wives and children. In this episode, John Heinen and Devin Schadt sit down with Adam Lane Smith to uncover why. Drawing from the science of attachment theory, Adam exposes how a man can be highly capable on the outside while remaining emotionally isolated on the inside, and how t...

The Hidden Root of Anxiety w/ Dr. Bob Schuchts

We carry pain we can't name. It shows up as anxiety, anger, overwork, or the sense that no matter what we do, it's never enough. In this episode, John Heinen and Devin Schadt sit down with Dr. Bob Schuchts of the St. John Paul II Healing Center to explore what's really driving the unrest men feel and why pushing through it, numbing it, or ignoring it only makes it worse.

The Only Way for a Man to Behave Online (w/Timothy Flanders)

April 2, 2026 • 75 mins
Men using the internet have no idea they are losing a war they never knew they were fighting. The algorithm is not neutral, it is rewarding outrage, feeding pride, and quietly rewiring the way men think, speak, and relate to God. Timothy Flanders, Editor-in-Chief of OnePeterFive, has lived inside this tension for years. He has built a major Catholic journal online while wrestling personally with what the digital world does to a man...

The World Will Turn on You. Be Ready.

March 29, 2026 • 11 mins
In this episode of Into the Desert, Fr. Ken Geraci and John Heinen confront the tension at the heart of Palm Sunday: the same voices that cry “Hosanna” can quickly turn to “Crucify Him.” What looks like devotion can collapse under pressure, revealing how easily men drift with the crowd, seek approval, and abandon the path of Christ when it becomes costly. They press into the question: “Will I remain ...

5 Traits Women Want in a Man

March 26, 2026 • 73 mins
We get this question all the time, what do I need to do to find a wife or get married? So often we find men waiting for the right woman to find them, the right opportunity to arrive, the right moment to finally step up. The problem isn't that they lack a desire; the problem is that they haven't yet done the interior and exterior work of becoming marriageable. In this episode, John Heinen and Devin Schadt cut through the noise and l...

The Father Who Ran: When A Child Refuses

March 19, 2026 • 77 mins
Every father eventually faces a moment when his child pulls away. The distance grows, the relationship hardens, and most men respond in one of three ways. In this episode, John Heinen and Devin Schadt use the parable of the Prodigal Son to diagnose what's really happening beneath the surface: why rebellion cuts so deeply into a man's sense of worth, and what the wounds underneath his reactions are actually telling him. But this ...

This Is Where Men Quit Lent | Fr. Ken Geraci & John Heinen

March 14, 2026 • 8 mins
We start Lent with strong intentions. The fasting plan is clear. The prayer routine feels doable. The discipline is there. But somewhere in the middle of Lent, the struggle begins. The motivation fades, the routine breaks down, and we quietly give up. In this episode of Into the Desert, Fr. Ken Geraci and John Heinen explain why this exact moment is where real spiritual growth begins. The desert exposes the limits of self-reliance...

The Leadership Lie Destroying Families

The word "headship" has become so loaded that most men either weaponize it or abandon it entirely.
