Podcasts about corona diaries

There is a paradox at the heart of this weeks episode of The Corona Diaries (see what I did there…) and it is this.Getting Lucy Jordache on the zoom call was easy, she was more than up for a repeat appearance on the pod. Getting her to actually talk about herself and her life, was a darn sight more tricky. But we are nothing if not determined (creatives code for just bloody nosey) and between the two of us we were able to get to know a bit more about one of the significant dollops of glue that holds Marillion in place.Oh and if that wasn't enough you also get an update on a PZ T-Shirt pre-order.Love'n'political skeletons,hTCD Merch StoreBecome Purple and support the showThe Invisible Man Volume 1: 1991-1997The Invisible Man Volume2: 1998-2014FacebookInstagramWebsite

We have hit a bit of a milestone, and it is sort of crept up on us. Would you believe it has been five years (and a few days) since we announced the upcoming launch of The Corona Diaries, and pretty much five years to the day that the first chapter (This Strange Podcast) was offered up for your consumption.And haven't we been through some crazy stuff; in fact haven't we helped each other through some crazy stuff. We are bound together by a heady mix of the half-remembered and the humorous, by the grief and the giggles, by the warm purple glow of our own accidental cult.So here is (quite literally) to the next chapter, and the next and even to the one after that. TCD (...sorry Lucy) is a journey that still feels like it has a few good miles left in it, and who would we be to argue with that.Love'n'kismeth & AntTCD Merch StoreBecome Purple and support the showThe Invisible Man Volume 1: 1991-1997The Invisible Man Volume2: 1998-2014FacebookInstagramWebsite

W/C 8th July 2024Of the random things I have done this week I put together a 'kind-of-britpop' mixtape on Spotify, mainly for Josh actually, and I have been enjoying some guitar-drenched nineties bangers as I have been sat behind my screen. Totally independently of that I mentioned Thea Gilmore on this week's Corona Diaries podcast and when I realised I had put Cast on my playlist, I happened to say out loud that I thought Thea's version was my go-to.So I have put links below for both, so you can have your say. And of course I hope JB gets to walkaway with the dignity that befits his service.Stay safe.Walkaway - Thea GilmoreWalkaway - CastTherapy For Me (or TFM as I now refer to it) is a bit of an audio curiosity. It started out as a mechanism for me to clear my head, with the hope that by saying stuff out loud it would act as a little bit of self-help. It's remains loose in style, fluid in terms of content and raw - it's a one take, press record and see what happens, affair.If you want to keep in touch with TFM and the other stuff I do then please follow me on Facebook, Insta, Twitter or Patreon. Thanks for getting this far.

We don't very often about the technical side of producing The Corona Diaries (see what I did there Lucy) mainly because we don't want to be seen to be blowing our collective trumpet, and partly because it isn't that interesting. But it is slightly relevant this week so here we go.Most weeks, usually on a Tuesday, Ant sets up a Zoom call and we congregate - rarely on time, and never before ten - to ease ourselves into the process. In short order we hit the record button, and away we go, but because the audio quality on Zoom is a little sketchy we choose to capture our individual tracks on separate software at either end. Then either Ant or myself will take those tracks, along with the intro/outro beds and the piano noodles and build what will ultimately be the finished episode.With me so far? Cracking!Now one of the little tricks of the trade is that we both have to wear headphones or earphones, because if you monitor via headphones the sound of the zoom call would be rerecorded through the microphone and create a kind of echo. Seems obvious right, but the reason I am telling you is that we have a perfect example of that this week when our guest joined us and did that very thing...So while you listen to #208 see if you can spot that little moment, because it is a little peek behind the “tech curtain”. Mind you, it's probably because his volume goes up to eleven.Love'n'Leonardh

In this episode, the Goods from the Woods Boys are joined once again by the hilarious and wonderful comedian and writer Carly Garber! We kick this one off by re-visiting the classic "conversational crack" discussion from The Corona Diaries before ingesting some low grade speed in the "phorm" of a citrusy energy drink that may or may not have staphylococci in it. We also talk about the self-driving cars and food delivery robots that are currently running amok in California and the street rebels who are trying to stop them. We've got some tales from the "Bartenders of Reddit" and a JAM OF THE WEEK from Alice in Chains. Carly is the best. This episode is the best.

We are caught between a meatball and a clotted cream scone this week, with Ant squirrelled away in a corner of Devon and me in Sweden for a couple of weeks.It seems like an age since we last recorded one of these, so we eased ourselves back into the podcasting swing by catching up with my recent off-mic activities and reflecting on my recent natural show in Liverpool.And as a special treat the legend that is Lucy Jordache is on hand to tidy up some of the debris from Chapter 168 and generally sprinkle a light dusting of competence & clarity that The Corona Diaries (see what I did there) aspires to, but tends to lack - especially on the right-hand-side of stereo ...where I tend to reside.Keep on rocking and er..

Now, there are two reasons why Seamus is all over #166.The first one you will find out pretty much as soon as you start listening, and tbh it's a thing of beauty. No need to know the backstory, it is what it is and as you will hear, it moved me to oblige.Secondly he was one of the first (possibly the first) to vote for The Corona Diaries in the British Podcast Awards. And in this he is not alone.So thanks to all of you that have taken the trouble to vote, and if you haven't as yet (but you are thinking about it) then remember It is as easy as 1-2-3Click the linkSearch for The Corona DiariesRegister your vote.

To help you navigate this weeks episode some of you may well need a little help.You see when you get a couple of blokes from loosely the same time, and roughly the same neighbourhood, and they get into a groove then they are going to drop in a few cultural references that are, for want of a better phrase, a little oblique.So you might want to have the following nuggets of information to hand;Basil Brush A children's TV character predominantly from the 60's & 70's. Basil was a Red Fox with a voice based around the actor Terry Thomas.More about BasilThe Three Bees of Napoleon Not necessarily as described in the episode, but then again what is. Certainly a link between the three bees and the the infamous Emperor himself.More about the three beesRod Hull & Emu Another puppet character (and puppeteer in this case) that transitioned from kids TV to light entertainment and chat shows. Generally remembered for leaving chaos in their wake, how apt.More about Rod Hull & EmuShure SM7B The recording microphone of choice for the Corona Diaries, and countless other podcasters, singers and content creators. No money changes hands between Shure and ourselves.More about the SM7BKeep it purple, keep it real, keep it on a clothes hanger.h

Well we have only gone and bloody made it to one hundred and fifty.No one can be quite as surprised as us about this particular milestone because when we started this journey there wasn't a destination programmed in, and certainly not one so far on the horizon.The fact is that The Corona Diaries wasn't really much more than a concept, an idea that hadn't really developed into a firm plan. We had the notion to include the diary of course, but to be honest that was about it.So for the past 150 weeks TCD has just kind of found its own level, following the path of least resistance, being what it was always going to be. Sometimes it can be funny, occasionally it can be serious, often it is silly and every once in a while totally incomprehensible.But because it has plotted its own path, it will always be honest.Thank you for being part of the journey, and thank you for playing your part. You have influenced the outcome as much as we have, of course you have. Because when push comes to shove you are all bloody purple.To wherever it takes us next...h & Anth & AntTCD Merch StoreBecome Purple and support the showThe Invisible Man Volume 1: 1991-1997The Invisible Man Volume2: 1998-2014FacebookInstagramWebsite

The one where we talked all things acoustic with Rosie Heydenrych.A passion for music, and an outlet for self-expression, is what brings a lot of people to the guitar, particularly in your late teens. In that respect what drew Rosie to the acoustic is not especially ground-breaking or unique. What is somewhat unique though is the determination and drive to channel that passion into building some really fine instruments, that look and sound great. And that is exactly what Rosie has done with her brand, Turnstone Guitars.We get the full story behind that journey, from her first guitar and her early musical influences, to the hard hours necessary to master the art of acoustic guitar building before you can even begin to turn your vision into reality.Turnstone Guitars Website9-42 is the podcast from the team behind The Guitar Show UK, an annual event held in Birmingham and loved by guitarists young & old.

If memory serves, we haven't ever recorded an episode of The Corona Diaries between Christmas & New Year. Obviously I haven't gone to the trouble of actually checking that fact, I am relying purely on gut instinct and the lingering after-taste of industrial-strength descaler.Of course the beauty of this period of the year is that it's a bit like the twilight-zone, with nobody really quite sure why everything feels just a little bit off-kilter. You know the kind of thing I am talking about, when a Wednesday feels like a Sunday and nobody bats an eyelid if you want three shortbread petticoat tails and a glass of sherry for your breakfast. So if ever there was a podcast, perfectly suited to this point in the calender it would be TCD, proud to live all year-round wedged between the humps of a camel.I just can't believe it's taken this long to work it out.Keep it TCD in 23!hTCD Merch StoreBecome Purple and support the showThe Invisible Man Volume 1: 1991-1997The Invisible Man Volume2: 1998-2014FacebookInstagramWebsite

The one where we had to change our plans a bit.Think of this as a bit of a festive bonus, like a little twinkly adornment for your tree, or an extra satsuma in your stocking. So if you need a brief respite from the Christmas Day shenanigans, here is 25 minutes of 9-42 blather wrapped a few little updates and need-to-knows.There is very little extra to add, other than to wish you a groovy Christmas and a hard-rocking New Year.9-42 will be back in January.The Guitar Show Website9-42 is the podcast from the team behind The Guitar Show UK, an annual event held in Birmingham and loved by guitarists young & old.

The one where Ant surprised everybody with his knowledge of Ableton...According to Bass Guitar magazine Steve is 'Britains most innovative bass guitarist'. According to Steve he is a Bassist, Journalist and Academic. According to us he is a very fascinating, very passionate, very lovely bloke.Over the course of the episode we (of course) delve into Steves career, but mainly through the prism of trying to establish what the hell it means to be a 'Solo Bass Player' and more importantly how do you turn it into a career. This brings us in turn to his early session and touring work, how he began writing and his fascination with innovation that has knitted these pieces together.We also grapple with the slightly surreal notion of his recently diagnosed cancer being a positive career move.Steve WebsiteSteve Bandcamp9-42 is the podcast from the team behind The Guitar Show UK, an annual event held in Birmingham and loved by guitarists young & old.

The one where we scatted about all over the place with Doug Kauer.Even though we chatted for well over an hour, it will take you no more than a few moments to realise that Doug is a real character. Firstly up is the fact that he bounds into the conversation with all the energy of Tigger, and all the breathless delivery of Jim Carrey. And secondly is that infectiousness of a man who doesn't take what he does too seriously, whilst absolutely taking what he does really, really seriously...But we digress. Lets start at the beginning with his early life building furniture in his fathers workshop and his deep love of all kinds of guitar music. And when with chatted about that, then we can move onto The Simpsons.(oh and just a little heads up, we ended up having to use the Zoom recorded audio for this episode so apologies if it doesn't sound quite as clear as usual.)Kauer Guitars WebsiteKauer Guitars Instagram9-42 is the podcast from the team behind The Guitar Show UK, an annual event held in Birmingham and loved by guitarists young & old.

It's only taken 130 episodes, but we have finally completed the set. Backstage at the Tivoli Vredenburg in Utrecht, resplendent against the magnolia painted breeze-block walls, Mark Kelly himself became the final member of Marillion to pop his TCD cherry. As you would expect he was top value, fizzing between his take on the current tour, the development of the tech that drives the show and how he went about the process of collecting his thoughts to write a book. Lots of chat, giggles, and a few senior moments proving that Special K is indeed a perfect fit when it comes to The Corona Diaries. Love'n'apols for the slight echo (but then again it is Halloween, and it gave it a spooky vibe)...

The one where we learnt a load about buying & selling Vintage guitars.I think it's fair to say we would all like to be making a living in the same way that Mike Long does. Mike formed ATB Guitars in 1998 and since then he has been half way around the world on the trail of the kind of guitars most of us can only dream of. To date nearly 5000 instruments have passed through his hands, and he has dealt with a great dollop of Rock Royalty along the way.We had a fascinating chat, and as well as a few little tips about where you might go for a 'vintage bargain' he also explained how he he gained his first bit of notoriety in the early days of eBay.ATB WebsiteThe 1960 Burst Story9-42 is the podcast from the team behind The Guitar Show UK, an annual event held in Birmingham and loved by guitarists young & old.

The one where CEO Ken Haas tries to overcome his natural shyness. Even though they are celebrating their 25th birthday this year, Reverend Guitars May still be a new one on you. Born in Detroit and raised in Toledo the brand boasts a collection of unique designs and innovative features, and numbers Billy Corgan, Reeves Gabrels and Greg Koch amongst their signatories. We had a great time chatting through the back story with Ken, and exploring what drives his undeniable enthusiasm for the guitar. https://reverendguitars.com/ (Reverand Guitars) https://instagram.com/haas.ken?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y= (Ken Instagram) 9-42 is the podcast from the team behind The Guitar Show UK, an annual event held in Birmingham and loved by guitarists young & old.

The one where Guy kicked off a whole new season. You might have been wondering why you hadn't been getting your regular fix of 9-42, well the truth is we had a little break over the summer which gave us time to recharge, regroup and plan a whole new second season. And what a way to start, with guitarist and singer Guy Griffin. Guy is well known as a long term member of The Quireboys, as well as playing with Joe Elliott in the Down 'N' Outz and his own band Glimmer. As with a lot of out conversations it covers a lot of ground, and takes us into some uncharted territory including how to decide what football team to follow when you live in Bedford. http://quireboys.com (The Quireboys Website) https://www.instagram.com/griff69pix/?hl=en (Guy Instagram) 9-42 is the podcast from the team behind The Guitar Show UK, an annual event held in Birmingham and loved by guitarists young & old.

In this episode, we listen to interviews that our diarists conducted with their family and friends about how they feel being part of this podcast and what stories would they want to hear. Our host Tumiso Maseng introduces us to Nosipho Hlophe, who spoke to some of the people in her inner close circle to hear what they think of sharing parts of their lives with us on this podcast. Then, we touch on the kind of stories they would like, where our audio diarist, Kerry Lanaghan, spoke to some of her friends about how they feel about telling their pandemic related stories with her. Finally, we end the episode with Tatenda Muntungwe interview with members of his household and some of his friends. They shared with him their point of view about the on-going pandemic and how they overcame the challenges they faced during the pandemic.

As another cohort of audio storytellers brings us more stories about their lives during a global pandemic, they start to look ahead to a life post-COVID-19, all while still reflecting on their experiences and lives. In the first episode, these storytellers welcome us into their lives by introducing us to their innermost circles and some of the people we will hear from as they begin their audio storytelling journeys. In this episode, Tumiso Maseng introduces us to Nosipho Hlophe, Kerry Lanaghan, and Tatenda Mutungwe.

I hour, 17 minutes and 2 seconds. What were we thinking.... To be honest there are three reasons why Chapter 116 of The Corona Diaries is over an hour and a quarter long; We clearly weren't thinking (we were just blathering) I tried to explain what's in my music room... Ant came up with a bonkers concept for conversation, that will probably take us the rest of the year to get through. So I am going to stop typing - so you can start listening - because you haven't got a moment to waste.

If you go all the way back to the beginning, way before it was called The Corona Diaries (or even TCD for that matter) one of the first things that Ant and I talked about was incorporating a reading from my diary into every episode. Not only did we think it would give some structure, but it would provide the opportunity for me to expand on the entries and answer any follow-ups that Ant thought might be interesting for you, dear listener. Clearly we have evolved since then, as the tap-room banter and general ill-preparedness has been raised to somewhat of an art-form, but the diary segment has remained true to that original intent. I say this because every once in a while the diary entry takes centre stage, and this week is one of those occasions, as you are about to hear. Buckle up, and don't argue with the cabin-crew... h

We're finally at the point of talking about Somewhere Else - Marillion's 2007 follow-up to Marbles. It's an album that has something of a mixed legacy, and in this episode we argue that it's a record that deserves better than its reputation. We also explore where it might've gone so wrong - and why Paul may have had something to do with it.Also, we check in with The Corona Diaries, and enjoy a review of the Montreal Marillion Weekend...!

The one where we finally got around to chatting about the music. From the age of five Sophie knew that the guitar would play some part in her life. During her teens she established herself both on stage and in the studio, as well as a renowned guitar teacher. Just prior to the pandemic she shifted her focus to the online world, amassing a huge following across Youtube, Facebook and TikTok. We picked up the story to understand the reasoning behind her career choices so far and what she has planned next. https://www.sophieburrell.com (Sophie Website) 9-42 is the podcast from the team behind The Guitar Show UK, an annual event held in Birmingham and loved by guitarists young & old.

Just for once lets start with the apologies... Ant would like to apologise to the Flaming Lips, and/or possibly the Welsh people, and/or possibly all Americans - depending on your point of view. I would like to apologise to the Czech promoter who did in fact pay us in Prague, but not the other promoters (Czech or otherwise) over the years that didn't (or at least haven't so far). Right now we have got that out of the way, this weeks chapter is one of our infrequent Q&A episodes. Whilst these are a regular for those that support The Corona Diaries on Patreon, we only occasionally incorporate them into the general release - but we have had so many good (and brave) questions of late, it would have been rude not to share a few.

Corona Diaries is back for a 5th season! In the first episode of this new season audio storyteller and member of the 2022 second-year journalism class Qhama Yawa introduces us to a new cohort of storytellers. In a soundscape, Cassandra Scheepers, welcomes us into a space that she calls her second home in Makhanda in the Eastern Cape. We get to hear from those closest to audio diarist Mihle Mdashe who share their insights about being part of this body of work. We end this episode with Andiswa Dlamini who spoke to her family members and friends from different parts of the country how the pandemic has had an impact on their personal lives, school, and businesses.

It never seems to stop this podcasting lark. I was literally just getting over the Centennial episode (and what an episode it was, thanks again Mike H.) and the doorbell is going bonkers heralding the arrival of Chapter 101. And yet again it's another belter... 'But how can you be sure it's a belting episode of TCD' I hear you ask in a quizzical tone. Well, that's easy, because it contains all the essential ingredients that make up the Victoria sponge of delight that is The Corona Diaries; A good value guest that fits right into the purple family One of those very special diary days A crooncast totally out of left field This one's for you Don. h

On March 12, 2020, the drop-in group Tube City Writers met for their final pre-pandemic session. In addition to agreeing that future meetups would need to happen virtually, they also decided a daily blog could be a good way to occupy their time. Mon Valley resident Jim Busch led the charge. For more than a year, he documented life in the shadow of the pandemic, plus one very personal loss — his wife, Glenda, was diagnosed with end-stage pancreatic cancer.  He and Pulitzer Prize-winning photographer Martha Rial are here to talk about the project, what it took to keep building their community online, and what they hope to accomplish next.  The Tube City Writers are hosting a reading and book signing on Friday at the Carnegie Library of McKeesport at 2PM. And they're always looking for new members! No experience necessary.

The one where (amongst other things) we chatted about what it was like having an ex-Police Man as your boss. Rufus was in Paris when we spoke, just finishing rehearsals for a six month stint on the road with Sting, his first major road-trip since lockdown. We talked about what he had been doing to keep himself busy, making music with his sister, and his new single & Ep. And of course we also delved into how you manage to get into Sting's touring band and what it is really like being on stage with a tantric legend. https://www.rufusmiller.com/ (Rufus's Website) https://twitter.com/rufuskull (Rufus's Twitter) 9-42 is the podcast from the team behind The Guitar Show UK, an annual event held in Birmingham and loved by guitarists young & old.

The one where we both got a bit over-excited about Tom's house. The main reason we wanted to get Tom onto 9-42 was to talk about his new EP, finally recorded and finished during lockdown, and due out this week. And we did indeed talk about that quite a bit, but even before that point, it got a little out of hand. We won't give any more away, other than to say we had a very entertaining hour in Tom's company and we are big fans of his playing, his life choices and his sense of humour. https://www.instagram.com/thetennischampion/ (Tom Instagram) https://www.alttickets.com/tom-ford-tickets/london-the-grace/2022-03-16-19-00 (Tom EP Launch Gig) https://open.spotify.com/artist/3GjqRsFb9dpZ02vchIWQPE?si=i3obnkp8SEm2VbCF01r4Nw (Tom Spotify) 9-42 is the podcast from the team behind The Guitar Show UK, an annual event held in Birmingham and loved by guitarists young & old.

The one that got all eighties-tastic. Well this was a blast. When he isn't messing about with Metal Detectors (and playing in far too many bands to keep track of) Rich will normally be creating content for his Youtube channel 'Session Heroes'. Rich has been fascinated with this community of behind-the-scenes guitar virtuosos for quite a while, and has been producing content on the subject for about five years. This if course is perfect for Ant & Jason as it allows them to bang on about the eighties and look over the discographies of players such as Michael Landau, Dan Huff & Steve Lukather. https://www.youtube.com/c/RichardWatson/videos?view=0&sort=da&flow=grid (Session Heroes - Youtube) https://www.richardwatsonmusic.com (Rich - Website) 9-42 is the podcast from the team behind The Guitar Show UK, an annual event held in Birmingham and loved by guitarists young & old.

The one where Jason had a very intellectual chat with the guitarist from Sleeper. Jon completed his PhD in 2018, and over the last few years has been working on expanding his thesis into a book. The result is Dylan, Lennon, Marx & God which was published late in 2021. In this extended chat Jon talks Jason through his academic journey, how it has been influenced by both his childhood years in Sheffield and then by his university life in Manchester in the last eighties. Along the way they touch on living in LA, working with KD Lang & Mel C, and of course his work with Sleeper. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Dylan-Lennon-Marx-God-Stewart/dp/1108489818/ref=sr_1_3?adgrpid=52787847305&gclid=CjwKCAiA9aKQBhBREiwAyGP5lSeCDj9x9pmkcYwKymZHwoXMoVmyjiWW6igzzM2RyFaUHH4lACaHphoCMJAQAvD_BwE&hvadid=259063257989&hvdev=c&hvlocphy=1006815&hvnetw=g&hvqmt=e&hvrand=3361768340196699540&hvtargid=kwd-303949058348&hydadcr=24402_1748874&keywords=jon+stewart+book&qid=1644772942&sr=8-3 (Dylan, Lennon, Marx & God) https://sleeperband-merchandise.myshopify.com (Sleeper Website) https://twitter.com/jonsleeper1?lang=en (Jon Twitter) 9-42 is the podcast from the team behind The Guitar Show UK, an annual event held in Birmingham and loved by guitarists young & old.

OK, lets gets the bad news out of the way first, this is the last Corona Diaries chapter of 2021. Ant & I have decided to have a week off over the festive period, but we will be back ready to pick up the baton in the new year. And so to the good news: As promised we bring you a full-on Christmas Special to close out the year. The legend that is Chris Neil (d.o.b Dec24) joins us for an extended edition of absolute (Christmas) bollocks. No spoilers, no trails, no clues...just immerse yourself in over 75 minutes of absolute meandering and meaningless (but proud) twaddle. And it goes without saying we both wish you a safe & peaceful Christmas and a hope-filled new year.

Greetings from the road! Well we just about managed it. From a hotel room in Cardiff, via a bit of piano onstage and a fair amount of knob tweaking in my tour bunk comes this weeks instalment of The Corona Diaries (sadly this work-flow took it's toll on the audio quality a bit as we were fighting with unhelpful recording spaces so please bear with us). Of course, to complicate matters further, we only went and threw in an extra special guest as well. I managed to track down the one and only Chris Neil, (legendary producer, actor and impressive name-dropper) and he popped up on the Zoom call with a twinkle in his eye and a urinal in his backdrop. Needless to say we had a good ol' natter about his time with the band working on HiE, his impressive discography and his slightly risqué history. Oh and in the wrap (emboldened by Mr N. who was press-ganged into it) we truly live up to our #pornographers moniker. Go no further than the diary if you are easily offended by laddish smut. What am I saying?!

This Podcast was recorded hours before Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer issued a Shelter in Place order for the state of Michigan due to the spread of the COVID-19 Virus.

~Are you bored yet?? So are we!! Come listen to us tell our embarrassing stories, discuss taboo topics, try to give advice (seriously take at your own risk) & tell stories.. it might make you cringe and will definitely make you feel better about your self. But what's a better time then the end of the world~

Does this sound like you?  We won't lie - all of the sudden being forced to be with all of our children 24/7 is not easy. We are struggling just like everyone else!  But instead of asking God “why?” we need to ask “what?”. What do you want to teach us, Lord? What do you want us to do? What do you want to show us?  We have said many times that parents are the first teachers of their children and leaders of their families. Today we see that more clearly than ever!  This crisis is giving us the opportunity to rid ourselves of all the extraneous activities that normally distract us and allowing us to focus on our children.  Listen in as we give some valuable ideas, encouragement, and inspiration for this time or any time of crisis.    “We know certainly that our God calls us to a holy life. We know that he gives us every grace, every abundant grace; and though we are so weak of ourselves, this grace is able to carry us through every obstacle and difficulty.” ~ St. Elizabeth Ann Seton   Advice and strategies for families in these challenging times, especially how to celebrate Sunday when there is no mass… sign up at https://www.messyfamilyproject.org/join/
