The Hours (Sneak Preview)

I had an amazing weekend at my son’s wedding! I can’t wait to say more about it in next week’s episode. Needless to say, it was a crazy busy time. So when I woke up on Monday, I realized that I had to fly… Continue Reading “The Hours (Sneak Preview)”

Texting Like a Baby

Man, Fr. Dave is such a baby when his stuff gets edited out of the podcast! Last week I brought up gambling addictions and how serious they were. Fr. Dave then told a story of playing a dollar at a slot machine and getting… Continue Reading “Texting Like a Baby”

The Gambler

I’m busy grading! Graduation is this week and grades are due. So, enjoy the episode 🙂

10,000 Screaming 7-Year-Olds

For the record, this is probably the most unsettling episode picture I’ve designed for They That Hope. Apparently, it was created by AI, which is a nice nod to our previous episode. I just searched for “screaming children” and this was one of the… Continue Reading “10,000 Screaming 7-Year-Olds”

Artificial Intelligence

Well, the Abiding Together ladies took a next step in their podcast warfare with us. Fr. Dave and I walked into a “feminized” studio: a soy candle, glitter on the table, pink covers on the microphones, and a huge “Abiding Together” banner that said,… Continue Reading “Artificial Intelligence”

Nightmare on Franciscan Street

For the record, we are good friends with Sr. Miriam, Heather Khym, and Michelle Benzinger—the wonderful women who do the “Abiding Together” podcast. When I first titled the episode (yes, that is my job) I thought I’d photoshop my face over a picture of… Continue Reading “Nightmare on Franciscan Street”

Achtave, Baby

One of U2’s most popular albums was called “Achtung, Baby,” and that was the reference I was going for in the podcast when I said, “Octave, Baby.” To even make the obscure reference more obnoxious, I titled the episode after it. As you’ve probably… Continue Reading “Achtave, Baby”

Appendages with Digits

Well, both teams that Fr. Dave assigned me to root for last week lost (no surprise, there), and though we didn’t know it at the time, UConn won the NCAA tournament. On the women’s side, congrats to LSU! And, for the record, I actually… Continue Reading “Appendages with Digits”

It Was Rocky IV

Yes, I did see Creed III this weekend. And I hadn’t even seen Creed I or II. Or Rocky I-VI. Still loved it! Apparently, all the Catholic schools are out of the Final Four, and it has been a crazy March for upsets. None… Continue Reading “It Was Rocky IV”

March Madness

Ironically, I watched college basketball this weekend and Fr. Dave did not! But that was because he was in Ireland and then Austria, whereas I was hanging with a cool priest in his basement while being away at a parish mission. I was watching… Continue Reading “March Madness”
