Podcasts about deuterocanonical

In this episode of Catholic Answers Live, we tackle one of the most persistent Protestant arguments against the Catholic canon: Did St. Jerome actually reject the Deuterocanonical books? Some claim he supported a 66-book Bible—so what's the truth? We unpack what Jerome really believed, what he said about the Septuagint, and how his writings have been misused.

In this first episode of the series, we consider the Readable Books (aka Deuterocanonical, Apocryphal) in general, and how they are esteemed by Orthodox, and then read the poignant prayer of Azariah (Daniel 3:25-36), seeing it in the light of Genesis 15, Psalm 79, Romans 3:4, and Rev 16:7.

God is concerned with justice, yet some of those who hold positions of power in His name abuse it. Congregants may give a blank slate to their leaders, mistakenly believing them incapable of evil. In the story of Susanna, we are presented with a narrative depicting the abuse of power and sexual exploitation—an ancient Jewish story that sheds light on a very contemporary problem. Entering the world of the Apocrypha helps round out our knowledge of God, His people, and their worldview through history. The guys invite you to join in the mini-series on the Deuterocanonical 'Second Canon' writings that provide insight into the thoughts and lives of the exiled Jewish people who were awaiting the Messiah.

D. John Bergsma joins us to discuss the history of the Deuterocanonical books and their place in the bible.

Professor Tony Burke: Ph. D. (1995-2001) University of Toronto, Centre for the Study of Religion https://www.tonyburke.ca/about/ New Testament Apocrypha 1st Edition: https://www.amazon.com/New-Testament-... New Testament Apocrypha 2nd Edition: https://www.amazon.com/New-Testament-... New Testament Apocrypha 3rd Edition: https://www.amazon.com/New-Testament-... Free Apocryphal Text Resource: https://www.nasscal.com/ apocrypha, (from Greek apokryptein, “to hide away”), in biblical literature, works outside an accepted canon of scripture. The history of the term's usage indicates that it referred to a body of esoteric writings that were at first prized, later tolerated, and finally excluded. In its broadest sense apocrypha has come to mean any writings of dubious authority. A brief treatment of apocrypha follows. For full treatment, see biblical literature: Apocryphal writings. There are several levels of dubiety within the general concept of apocryphal works in Judeo-Christian biblical writings. Apocrypha per se are outside the canon, not considered divinely inspired but regarded as worthy of study by the faithful. Pseudepigrapha are spurious works ostensibly written by a biblical figure. Deuterocanonical works are those that are accepted in one canon but not in all. https://www.patreon.com/GnosticInformant Please Consider joining my Patreon to help finding scholars to bring on. Any amount helps me. Thank you existing Patrons. 2nd Channel:    / @latenitegnosis   Follow me on Twitter: https://twitter.com/NealSendlak1 Discord: https://discord.com/invite/uWBZkxd4UX All the New Testament apocrypha are pseudepigraphal, and most of them fall into the categories of acts, gospels, and epistles, though there are a number of apocalypses and some can be characterized as wisdom books. The apocryphal acts purport to relate the lives or careers of various biblical figures, including most of the apostles; the epistles, gospels, and others are ascribed to such figures. Some relate encounters and events in mystical language and describe arcane rituals. Most of these works arose from sects that had been or would be declared heretical, such as, importantly, the Gnostics. Some of them argued against various heresies, and a few appear to have been neutral efforts to popularize the life of some saint or other early leader of the church, including a number of women. In the early decades of Christianity no orthodoxy had been established, and various parties or factions were vying for ascendancy and regularity in the young church. All sought through their writings, as through their preaching and missions, to win believers. In this setting virtually all works advocating beliefs that later became heretical were destined to denunciation and destruction. In addition to apocryphal works per se, the New Testament includes a number of works and fragments that are described by a second meaning of the term deuterocanonical: “added later.” The Letter to the Hebrews attributed to Paul, who died before it was written, is one of these; others are the letters of James, Peter (II), John (II and III), and Jude, and the Revelation to John. Fragments include Mark 16:9–20, Luke 22:43–44, and John 7:53 and 8:1–11. All are included in the Roman canon and are accepted by the Eastern Church and most Protestant churches. Heretical movements such as Gnosticism and Montanism spawned a great body of New Testament pseudepigrapha. The existence of such purported scriptures lent great impetus to the process of canonization in the young and orthodox Christian Church.

(MB) Happy MLK Day! Dr. Anders shows how Martin Luther King was a good example of someone who reached into the past and depths of culture to find wisdom.

Callers choose the topics during Open Forum, peppering our guests with questions on every aspect of Catholic life and faith, the moral life, and even philosophical topics that touch on general religious belief.  Questions Covered: 05:22 – How is faith a rational thing?  14:20 – Why are there candles in front of the statues of Mary in Catholic Churches?  17:52 – A Protestant recently told me that 1 Maccabees 9:27 proves that Maccabees could not be written by an inspired author, and he also claimed that same lack of inspiration for the other Deuterocanonical books. How can I refute that?  22:50 – Who were the different Mary’s at the foot of the Cross?  29:04 – Is it true that change cannot happen outside of time? Does the Church teach this?  36:10 – What is ‘selah’ in the Bible?  43:28 – I am Protestant but recently married a devout Catholic man. I love going to Mass with him, but I also love being Protestant. Is there some way that I can have both?  49:00 – When Jesus was tempted in the desert, did he even have the option of committing a sin and giving in to temptation, as he is God?  …

The Bible is full of weird and wonderful books. But some of the most weird and wonderful—the Apocrypha or Deuterocanonical books—get a bad rap today. What's the deal? In this inaugural conversation, Joel and Jamey introduce the “bad” books, discuss their history, and explain their value to contemporary readers.

One of the objections that our Protestant friends give to the Deuterocanon, the 7 books that Catholic Bibles have and Protestants don't, is the cessation of prophecy. This is also known as the 400 years of silence between the time of Malachi and the New Testament. Gary walks us through to show the holes in this objection, and how the Deuterocanonical books show prophecy. He also discusses Jewish sources who also claim this. For more information about Gary visit his website www.handsonapologetics.com and listen to his daily Hands on Apologetics radio program Monday-Friday on Virgin Most Powerful Radio at 1pm EST.

0174 - Providence and the Protestant Canon of Scripture pt 1   What is the relationship between Providence and the Canon? In today’s episode, I talk about recent arguments in favor of the idea that God positively willed Christians to accept the 66-book Protestant canon of Scripture. This question came up in a recent video I was watching where two Protestant scholars were discussing various views about the canon within the Christian world.   These claims about divine Providence and the Protestant canon of Scripture harkened back to a statement I read in a popular systematic theology penned some time ago. Therein a popular Baptist scholar argued that all Protestant Christians should have confidence in their 66-book canon of Scripture for a variety of theological, historical and experiential reasons.   In this episode, I briefly address the various reasons forwarded in favor of the idea that God positively willed Christians to accept the 66-book Protestant canon of Scripture. Therein, I devote the majority of my attention to addressing the question of the historicity of the 66-book Protestant canon. I briefly discuss the acceptance of a Jewish listing of the Old Testament book in the fourth century by Christian leaders in the Roman East. The use of these leaders as a testimony to the Protestant canon, I argue, is problematic because their theory differs radically from their actual practice. On the one hand, these fourth-century leaders did indeed provide a list of scriptural books that came very close to purported Jewish canons of the period. But on the other hand, in their actual practice these fourth-century Christian leaders quoted from the Deuterocanonical books as scriptural, even though they did not include these books on their formal canonical lists.   In the end, we conclude that it is of utmost necessity for Christians to rely primarily on the authority the historical church of early Christianity and the Middle Ages in order to determine with certainty what exactly the canon of Scripture is. Criteria such as Providence, I argue, cannot be used as a reliable guide to determine that identity of the canonical books.   To forward this argument, I note, among other things, many Christians of the early church and Middle Ages did in fact regard books rejected from the 66-book Protestant canon not only as scriptural but even as canonical. In view of this complex history of the reception of the books of Scripture, the Providence criterion makes it virtually impossible to determine with certainty which books ought to be included in the canon of Scripture accepted by Christians.   Join us today as we talk about the question of Providence and the canon of Scripture.

173: What Does the Term Deuterocanonical Mean? - CHS 173   There is some confusion today in certain Protestant circles as to what exactly the term “deuterocanonical” (i.e., pertaining to the second canon) means to Catholics. This question came up in a recently video I was watching where two Protestant scholars were discussing various views about the canon within the Christian world.   One of the Protestant scholars stated that Catholicism relegates the deuterocanonical books (i.e., 7 books accepted by Catholics among the canonical books not—i.e., 1-2 Maccabees, Judith, Tobit etc.) to a second class. The scholar asked whether Catholics believed that the deuterocanonical books were produced as a result of a second level of inspiration of sorts.   In this episode we briefly discuss what the term originally meant when it was coined by the sixteenth-century biblical scholar Sisto di Siena OP and why that meaning is still important for Catholics today.   We also discuss how Catholic ecumenical councils such as Trent, Vatican I and Vatican II have understood the inspiration and authority of the deuterocanonical books. We note that each of these councils did not demean the inspiration or authority of the deuterocanonical books but rather regardem them as possessing equal authority with the proto-canonical books (n.b., more on that term in the episode).   In the end, we conclude that it is of utmost importance for Catholics to know their history. History is often the key to answering such objections. Oftentimes, claims such as the ones noted above go unchallenged because the records of Catholic tradition are not well known.   Careful attention to the history, however, can better help Catholic Christians engage in dialogue with other members of Christian communities. With historical records better known, we can all get a better sense of why such terms as “deuterocanonical” were coined in the first place and what they have meant to Catholics since.   Join us today as we talk about the of the history of the term “deuterocanonical.” To access the show, download our free app on the iOS or Android stores.

Gary is the author, among other things, of Why Catholic Bibles Are Bigger? and in this episode we tackle, in depth, the problem that exists from Protestants trying to live "Bible alone" faith with a Bible that, as we'll see, is missing some very important parts!It's a great conversation about the deuterocanonical canonical books of the Bible and their importance – as God's Word – and what happens when they're not in the Protestant canon. What's missing? What's missed? And what important theological developments are completely unknown to Protestant Christians as a result?

From: Apocryphile1970 Additional information. From: https://www.christianity.com/wiki/bible/what-is-the-wisdom-of-solomon.html What Is the Wisdom of Solomon? The Wisdom of Solomon, also known as the Book of Wisdom, is a Jewish text, composed in Greek, created in Alexandria (Egypt). Commonly dated to the late first century BC, the primary subject of the work is "Wisdom" itself, relating to two main views. Meaning and Significance of the Text According to Wikipedia, the Wisdom of Solomon, also known as the Book of Wisdom, is a Jewish text, composed in Greek, created in Alexandria (Egypt). Commonly dated to the late first century BC, the primary subject of the work is "Wisdom" itself, relating to two main views. In its relation to man, Wisdom is the achievement of knowledge of the righteous as a gift from God showing itself in action. In close relation to God, Wisdom is with God from all eternity. It is one of the seven wisdom books included within the Septuagint, along with Psalms, Proverbs, Ecclesiastes, Song of Songs (Song of Solomon), Job, and Sirach, and is inserted in the literature of Deuterocanonical books by the Roman Catholic Church and the of the Eastern Orthodox Church. Most Protestants view the Wisdom of Solomon as part of the Apocrypha. Outline of the Wisdom of Solomon: 1. Book of Eschatology -Appeal to justice -Speech of the sinful; variations of the wicked and the just -Appeal to wisdom 2. Book of Wisdom -Solomon's speech regarding wisdom, wealth, power and prayer 3. Book of History -Introduction, followed by diptychs of plagues -Digression on God's power and mercy -Digression on false worship and further plagues -Recapitulation and concluding doxology Wisdom of Solomon: Author and Theme The text is directed to the leaders of the earth, inspiring them to love righteousness and pursue wisdom. It states the sinful think that all is chance and that they should just enjoy each day, but they are misled. In the second section, the author describes his quest for wisdom. According to GotQuestions.org, the Wisdom of Solomon was considered to have been composed by King Solomon, although his name is found nowhere in the text. However, the early church renounced Solomon as the author as an old document known as the Muratorian Canon notes the Wisdom of Solomon as composed by “the friends of Solomon in his honor.” Although Solomon penned much on the matter of wisdom in Proverbs and Ecclesiastes, he never glorified it to be a component of the Godhead, a viewpoint found in The Wisdom of Solomon. The Wisdom of Solomon mentions Wisdom in terms the Bible uses for the Messiah, stating, “She [wisdom] is a reflection of eternal light, a spotless mirror of the working of God, and an image of his goodness” (Wisdom of Solomon 7:26) ~~~~~~~ If this blessed you, please share it!

Several decades ago, a prominent Evangelical Protestant scholar set forth the claim that Augustine dominated the Councils of Hippo (393) and Carthage (397). For this reason, the scholar argued, one should not regard the decisions reached by these two councils as truly representative of the North African church.   The scholar made this claim in order to diminish the weight of Catholic appeals to these councils in order to demonstrate the canonicity of the Deuterocanonical books. These two councils have been famous in Catholic circles because they formulated lists of the canonical scriptures that are virtually identical to the ones canonized by the Catholic Church at the Council of Trent.   Since the sixteenth century, Catholics have appealed to the witness of the councils of Hippo and Carthage with regard to the inclusion of the Deuterocanonical books. By reframing the true source of this council’s decisions, this scholar would like to challenge the authority Catholics have allocated to these two North African councils.   Is it indeed the case that Augustine dominated these two councils? And, is it the case that these two councils were mostly an expression of his thought?   Join us today as we talk about this historical claim concerning Augustine’s role at these two important councils.

Many of our Catholic beliefs and practices can seem odd if one does not understand their historical and theological basis. Practices such as praying for the dead, the intercession of saints, penance and the liturgy make sense when one understands the Jewish context out of which they emerged.  We also discuss the role the Deuterocanonical books have had in shaping and explaining such Catholic beliefs and practices.

Did Catholics add books to the Bible? Did Protestants take books out? What exactly is the Apocrypha? How do we know which books belong in the first place and, really, what evidence is there that the books accepted by Catholics were the right ones? Gary and I did very deep into the Bible and, thanks to Gary, come away with some incredible insights.

In this episode Trent shares a portion of his rebuttal to a popular video on YouTube that argues the Deuterocanonical books of scripture are not inspired because the Jewish historian Josephus said the Old Testament was “closed” centuries earlier.

Apocrypha literally means "hidden" or "unknown" implying the authorship of a writing is unknown.  But apocrypha has come to mean the books  between the Old and New Testaments, sometimes also called the Deuterocanonical books or second canon.  The books of the Apocrypha are worth reading.  Tobit loses hope, but is faithful, so God blesses him.  Judith saves Israel from the Assyrian army.  Included is a longer version of Esther, additions to the Book of Daniel and the story of the Maccabees, their revolt and God's help, from which the Hanukkah holiday is derived.  In this Religion Today broadcast Martin Tanner describes not only the books and stories in the Apocrypha, but their meaning and lesson.

You are urged therefore to read with good will and attention, and to be indulgent[a] in cases where, despite out diligent labor in translating, we may seem to have rendered some phrases imperfectly. For what was originally expressed in Hebrew does not have exactly the same sense when translated into another language. Not only this work, but even the law itself, the prophecies, and the rest of the books differ not a little as originally expressed. When I came to Egypt in the thirty-eighth year of the reign of Eu-er′getes and stayed for some time, I found opportunity for no little instruction.[b] It seemed highly necessary that I should myself devote some pains and labor to the translation of the following book, using in that period of time great watchfulness and skill in order to complete and publish the book for those living abroad who wished to gain learning, being prepared in character to live according to the law. In Praise of Wisdom 1 All wisdom comes from the Lord and is with him for ever. 2 The sand of the sea, the drops of rain, and the days of eternity—who can count them? 3 The height of heaven, the breadth of the earth, the abyss, and wisdom—who can search them out? 4 Wisdom was created before all things, and prudent understanding from eternity.[c] 6 The root of wisdom—to whom has it been revealed? Her clever devices—who knows them?[d] 8 There is One who is wise, greatly to be feared, sitting upon his throne. 9 The Lord himself created wisdom;[e] he saw her and apportioned her, he poured her out upon all his works. 10 She dwells with all flesh according to his gift, and he supplied her to those who love him. Fear of the Lord Is True Wisdom 11 The fear of the Lord is glory and exultation, and gladness and a crown of rejoicing. 12 The fear of the Lord delights the heart, and gives gladness and joy and long life. 13 With him who fears the Lord it will go well at the end; on the day of his death he will be blessed. 14 To fear the Lord is the beginning of wisdom; she is created with the faithful in the womb. 15 She made[f] among men an eternal foundation, and among their descendants she will be trusted. 16 To fear the Lord is wisdom's full measure; she satisfies[g] men with her fruits; 17 she fills their whole house with desirable goods, and their storehouses with her produce. 18 The fear of the Lord is the crown of wisdom, making peace and perfect health to flourish. 19 He saw her and apportioned her; he rained down knowledge and discerning comprehension, and he exalted the glory of those who held her fast. 20 To fear the Lord is the root of wisdom, and her branches are long life.[h] 22 Unrighteous anger cannot be justified, for a man's anger tips the scale to his ruin. 23 A patient man will endure until the right moment, and then joy will burst forth for him. 24 He will hide his words until the right moment, and the lips of many will tell of his good sense. 25 In the treasuries of wisdom are wise sayings, but godliness is an abomination to a sinner. 26 If you desire wisdom, keep the commandments, and the Lord will supply it for you. 27 For the fear of the Lord is wisdom and instruction, and he delights in fidelity and meekness. 28 Do not disobey the fear of the Lord; do not approach him with a divided mind. 29 Be not a hypocrite in men's sight,[i] and keep watch over your lips. 30 Do not exalt yourself lest you fall, and thus bring dishonor upon yourself. The Lord will reveal your secrets and cast you down in the midst of the congregation, because you did not come in the fear of the Lord, and your heart was full of deceit.Subscribe to Ask Catholics on Soundwise

Judith from the Deuterocanonical text of the same name Read or download a PDF transcript of Judith.

In general introductions to the history of the Bible or in books critical of Catholic Christianity, the claim is often made that the Council of Trent was the first ecumenical Council to canonize the Deuterocanonical books. This claim is made in order to give the impression to the reader that the Council of Trent’s decision to canonize the Deuterocanonical books was novel and unprecedented in the history of Christianity. In this episode, we evaluate the veracity of this claim by looking at the records of other medieval councils that spoke about the canonicity of the Deuterocanonical books. Join us this week as we discuss the status of the Deuterocanonical books in the late medieval church.   To comment on this show or provide feedback, please navigate to https://catholicheritageshow.com/episode84   The Catholic Heritage is devoted to helping Catholic Christians better understand the history, teachings and culture of their Catholic faith so that they can better love and serve Christ, the Church and their neighbors.

After previously covering each Deuterocanonical book individually, I have finally now examined them as a whole, in this podcast. Here I look at the SIX MAJOR OBJECTIONS made against the Catholic Bible canon of 73 books.

Get ready, Theophiloi, because it's time for a tightly plotted heist story about our favorite Deuterocanonical heroine, Judith! We'll be heading into a slice of the Apocrypha with some sharp commentary that cuts right to the good stuff. Get to listening, chop chop! Plus: Some very good and suggestions for improving Hanukkah that you can implement in your own celebrations! Topics of discussion: The ironies (all of them), Doubting Tomax, a prelude to Martinmas, St. Isadore the Hedgehog, an extended digression about Simon Magus and Avril Lavigne, The RAMBAN, Antilebanon, the Cracker Barrel Master Mold, earth and water, the most boss flex in the entire Bible, getting captured on purpose, Alfred, cheese plots, a Comic-Con of soldiers, and whether Holofernes was just a foot guy. Hymnal: "Heads Will Roll" by the Yeah Yeah Yeahs Offertory: If you enjoy the show, head to ko-fi.com/apocrypals and send us a love offering! We absolutely appreciate it!

We are back, Theophiloi! After a bona fide Act of God, we've returned to read the capital-A Apocryphal Book of Tobit, and it is a wild one. Join us for the most canonical of the non-canonical books, in which we find out exactly why you shouldn't go to sleep under a wall, what fish parts you need if you do, and meet an ironically prudish demon and an angel who's cool but rude. Plus: What happens if we find a brand new book of the Bible, autographed by God? Topics of discussion include: Janelle Monae, Tisha B'Av, the debatable sacrament of Cheddar Bay Biscuits, "The Sons of Thunder," the Dead Sea Scrolls, Antigone, the second ominous black sarcophagus, the lowercase grateful dead, Monster In The Bridal Chamber as a genre, Jack of the Tales and the sack that he used to capture Death, rough times in Ninevah, Asmodeus, Watership Down (or maybe Redwall?), the Seven Princes of Hell, Solomon and his demon bros, the Malleus Maleficarum aka the Witch Hammer (please note we only endorse the title, not the content), the Lantern of Light, the actual true amount of money for which Julius Caesar was ransomed because I know things sometimes too, Angel Disguises, a continuity patch for the book of Daniel, St. Raphael, Dubuque, Iowa, why angels are also saints, Tobias the Eighth, Tiffany and Chad, the first of many rules about angels, Hrotsvitha of Gandersheim. Special thanks to Cathy Leamy for telling us about "Sons of Thunder!" If you like the show, why not head to ko-fi.com/apocrypals to pitch in a few bucks?

This week, we've got not one, but two special guests on the mics with us! Daniel Silver and Father David Subu join us to introduce us to Doxacon Prime 2018! Doxacon is a convention about Christian genre fiction and fandom, and it's happening November 2-3, 2018, in Washington, DC. (For more information, check out the Doxacon Prime Facebook group, and follow @DoxaconPrime and @Doxacast on Twitter.) You can also hear some recordings from Doxacon and other interviews over at Ancient Faith Radio. Daniel and Father David have a lot more to talk about than just their awesome convention, though. First, we all chime in to respond to Patreon backer Nathanael Farley, who asks "What is your favorite (possibly indie) RPG that you think needs more love in the wider world?" (Our picks: Swords Without Master, The Trouble With Rose, Anima Prime, Dialect, and ... 1st Ed. D&D. Seriously.) Then, after our Scripture readings (including our first Deuterocanonical reading from Wisdom of Sirach) our guests talk about the need for Doxacon, and how in many ways modern Christian genre fiction and fandoms are still affected by the "Satanic Panic" of the late 20th century. Scripture: Deuteronomy 31:19-22; Proverbs 17:17; Wisdom of Sirach 4:20-25; Psalm 18; Hebrews 10:24-25

We go back to the basics and talk about what the bible is... Like what is it, really? And why....? Topics include The Old Testament, The New testament, and that other one in between. Shannon get's way too excited about a Jesus TV show (but mostly Jesus's beautiful, flowing hair).Music was Guitalele's Happy Place by Stefan Kartenberg (c) copyright 2017 Licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution (3.0) license. http://dig.ccmixter.org/files/JeffSpeed68/56194 Ft: Kara Square (mindmapthat)

How We Got Our Bible (Pt.6) This teaching focuses on the apocryphal books and asks the question, 'do they belong in the canon of Holy Scripture?'.  Apocrypha is the name given to the 15 additional books that appear in some Bible translations which contain Jewish religious literature.  If one was to pick up a KJV Bible today, one would turn the page from Malachi, past the page separating the Old and New Testaments, straight into the first chapter of Matthew’s Gospel.  However, in the original KJV Bible of 1611, one would have turned from Malachi to 1 Esdras!!  In fact, the Apocrypha was a part of the KJV for 274 years and was not removed until as late as 1885.  If one picks up a Roman Catholic Bible today, one will find that it consists not of 66 books but of 73 books which includes some apocryphal books known as the deuterocanonical books.  Do these books belong in our Bible and if not why not?  What about the great mass of so-called lost books claiming to be from Bible characters, known as the Pseudepigrapha, such as the Book of Enoch, the Book of Noah, The Acts of John, The Gospel of Thomas etc.  We shall set out in this teaching to answer these questions along with many more.

What are the Apocrypha / Deuterocanonical books? Do the Apocryphal / Deuterocanonical books belong in the Bible?

SummaryThe Apocrypha, also called Deuterocanonical books by Catholics, are extra books included in the Roman Catholic Old Testament, but not part of the Protestant Old Testament. In this episode, I discuss the reasons I do not believe the Deuterocanonical books are Sacred Scripture. These writings give us historical information and are generally useful, but they are not to be used as Holy Scripture. The Roman Catholic Council of Trent in 1546 says they are Scripture. Do we have to believe the Roman Catholic Church just because they say so?ResourcesCatholic Answers - A "pro-Catholic" resource. They have a free version of the Catholic Encyclopedia which provided me with quotes from the Council of Trent and some definitions used in this episode.Apocrypha Debate - White vs. MichutaThe Old Testament and the Apocrypha - In depth article which includes additional information on this topic.My Friend's Podcasts“Andrew's Daily Five” - Music countdowns.
