A total eclipse is as rare as an incredible episode of this show. Both happened this week! Taylor and Fr. Anthony start the show by sharing a few things in their lives/parishes that are going really well, and a few that could use work. Then, Taylor gets Fr. Anthony ranting about his favorite topic: THE MOON! With the rare eclipse happening this week, Taylor asks our good priest if his thoughts on the moon have changed. (Narrator: They haven't) Finally, Taylor has an observation from his lived experience that MIGHT contradict some popular theology. He talks through it with Fr. Anthony to see if he's crazy or the other people are! Subscribe/Rate Never miss out on the craziness of each episode by hitting the subscribe button RIGHT NOW!

I've respected Ryan O'Hara from afar for quite some time now so I was thrilled when we connected to be on each other's shows. In this episode, we talk about his podcast "Better Preach" where he chats with speakers on how they hone their craft of sharing the Gospel. We also put him to the test with our spur of the moment Catholic talk game called "Freestyle Preaching." To close the show, Ryan shares his story of becoming foster parents, how that process works and what lessons it has taught him. We hope you enjoy this conversation!

Taylor & Kathryn sit down to kick off Holy Week and share their favorite (and least favorite) parts of this special week! They rank the liturgies of the Triduum, explain why they enjoy each one & share what's on their hearts and minds as they head into this week. They also discuss the very different reasons they both became Catholic but then the oddly similar reasons that they remain Catholic. We hope you have a blessed Holy Week! We're praying for you.

Taylor has a laundry list of things currently driving him into fits of rage. Allison does her best to help him through it. As the Lenten season begins to wrap up, join us in our suffering.

Taylor & Fr. Anthony Sciarappa jump right in to discuss their frustrating and difficult past couple of weeks. Taylor can only laugh as he shares the comedy of errors occuring in his life. Next, they play a brand new game to try and lighten the mood. The game was stolen from social media and we're not exactly sure how it went. You'll either love it or hate it! lol Then to close the show, they get into a theological discussion of the accidents and substance of the Eucharist. Taylor thought he knew what all this meant until he thought about it for a while. The more he thought, the more confused he became(typical smh). Fr. Anthony answers his questions and shares his expertise in an attempt to help Taylor (and hopefully you) understand one of the central mysteries of our faith.

We're doing a Forte Flashback this week, highlighting our cohost Kathryn Whitaker's first two appearances on the podcast as a guest. These conversations were the seeds planted that eventually led to her joining us on a monthly basis. Today's show kicks off with her first appearance is person on Ep 256. We were recording in Liv Harrison's house so the three of us shared some things that are anchors or foundations for them as people that keep us strong during even the toughest of times. Then we go alllll the way back to Ep 153. This was back in our radio/podcast days. The title of the episode was "Nightmares Are You Scaring /you" which is still one of my favorite episode titles. We discuss her book "Live Big, Love Bigger: Getting Real with BBQ, Sweet Tea and a Whole Lotta Jesus" which is a title that perfectly captures Kathryn's aura. She shares her story of dealing with loss and pain, how it affected her relationship with Christ and, as a bonus, how to share your faith without being a weirdo. If you like this episode, all of our episodes are available wherever you are listening to this. Check out our backlog if you've joined us at some point in the last eight years!

Fr. Anthony has convinced Taylor to watch wrestling for the second time, and this time it's a family affair! At Fr. Anthony's behest, the entire Schroll family sat down to watch the Royal Rumble and it was a HIT! They discuss how this event really won over these non-wrestling fans and what this experience teaches us about how we can better evangelize. In the next segment, Taylor shares about a recent podcast he listened to about "pilot voice", when all airline pilots sound the same. They discuss how this extends to priests in homilies and maybe even Catholic speakers/podcasters. It's a fun discussion about conformity, making people feel safe & some bonus rare voice acting work by our hosts.

Chris Bartlett cohosts and shares with Taylor some of the wholesome media he's been watching and Taylor does likewise. They discuss Ted Lasso, Welcome to Wrexham, Everybody Loves Raymond and more borderline family shows. Then the guys play a long lost Forte game called "Read My Lips." They take turns muting and guessing the Super Bowl themed words that the other is saying and guessing by only reading lips. And of course, they make every word connect with a Catholic concept (many rather loosely lol) To close the show, they dive into the talk from Msgr. Shea at the FOCUS conference. This talk has swept the nation and seems to really be connecting with people. Chris praises it while Taylor has some mixed feelings about it and questions why the talk worked so well. It's a great conversations that challenges many of both hosts assumptions. We hope you enjoy! Subscribe/Rate Never miss out on the craziness of each episode by hitting the subscribe button RIGHT NOW!

To close the show, Kathryn has some hot takes on the College Football Playoff committee's decision & Texas A&M's historic firing of Jimbo Fisher.

Allison has been hyping up The Shift film for about a year now and was invited to walk the red carpet at the premiere! FANCY! She shares about that experience she shared with her son & discusses Christian art in the public sphere. Allison also wrote a new talk for Advent and shares some of the highlights from that. Taylor shares what he has been pondering throughout this season of preparation and Allison is shocked by how insightful it was. Taylor was both hurt & happy with this outcome. Finally, they end the show sharing their differing opinions on Matt Rife's new special. He has been called to be "cancelled" over some of his jokes. Allison agrees, Taylor thinks it might be taking it a bit too far. They talk about where comedy & morality mix & when they clearly don't.
