Listeners might remember last summer when we spoke with economist, hedge fund manager and co-author of Angrynomics, Eric Lonergan, about the radical steps he suggested needed to be taken by the US and the EU to prevent the worst economic damage of the COVID-19 pandemic hitting people who already feel left behind by their governments. So following our (Patron Only) podcast with Stephen Kinsella last week, we decided to ask Eric back on to tell us how he thinks that we are getting on. Unsurprisingly it's a mixed bag. We discuss the need to change the old economic mindset and to rip up the fiscal rules and Eric outlines how this can be done whilst creating a stake in society for everyone and tackling that polarisation and wealth gap. Another great conversation. Follow Eric on twitter @ericlonners Support us and get ad free podcasts and lots of exclusives at patreon.com/tortoiseshack

In this episode of The Cordial Catholic, we've reassembled our popular panel of converts from our discussion on Sola Scriptura (in Episode 66) to talk about the other famous Protestant "sola," Sola Fide – the idea that Christians are saved "by faith alone." Joined by Matt Swaim and Keith Nester, we discuss what Sola Fide means, how it's understood differently in different denominations, how we wrestled with it, and ultimately, how it isn't all that different from a Catholic understanding of salvation anyway. It's a fantastic discussion, a real deep dive, into our experiences trying to understand the Christian faith through a "faith alone" lens, and why we all eventually became Catholic.For more from Keith Nester visit his website and check out his fantastic new book, A Convert's Guide to Roman Catholicism: Your First Year in the Church.

In this episode of The Cordial Catholic Podcast, I'm joined by author Carl E. Olson to talk about what Catholics believe about the end times, the rapture, and dispensationalism. Carl grew up in the thick of fundamentalist, dispensationalist theology before becoming a Catholic along with his wife and has written a fantastic book on the subject. He joins me to unpack exactly what Catholics believe about the end of the world as well as where belief in the rapture comes from; the historical roots of the rapture, the development of the theology, and how a literal or plain sense meaning of the texts which underpin dispensationalist theology are simply untenable. Plus, we talk about some of the dangerous anti-Catholic origins of the dispensationalist worldview.

In this episode of The Cordial Catholic Podcast, I'm joined by Scripture scholar Dr. Andrew Swafford to talk about the biblical blueprints for the Mass. What insights do the Old and New Testaments give us into the Mass? What was God foreshadowing with the sacrificial system and the Temple in the Old Testament? How should this inform our understanding of the New Covenant, of the Last Supper, and of the crucifixion and the Mass? With several Bibles at hand, Dr. Andrew Swafford takes us deep into the biblical blueprint for the Mass and the uniquely Catholic details found in how God wants us to worship.

In this episode of The Cordial Catholic Podcast, I'm joined by Jon Steingard, frontman of the Christian rock band Hawk Nelson, for a unique conversation about the deconstruction of his Evangelical Christian faith and some of the interesting places where our two "conversion" stories intersect. This is not the kind of conversation I usually host on this podcast but seeing so many similarities between by my own conversion from Evangelical Christianity to Catholicism and Jon's own journey out of his Evangelical faith I reached out to Jon and he was gracious enough to come on the show to talk about it together. We discuss the Bible, the Eucharist, views of God, the saints, and more. This is truly a unique conversation and I'm deeply grateful to Jon for making it happen. I hope, in some small way, this can bring a new, different, and, I think, deeply important voice to the table that's often missing from these conversations.For more of Jon's story check out his YouTube channel and follow him on Twitter and Instagram.For more, visit The Cordial Catholic.

In this episode of The Cordial Catholic Podcast, I'm joined by Dr. Holly Ordway to talk about imagination, evangelization, and her journey into the Catholic Church as an atheist academic.It's a fantastic interview which touches on her conversion story, the use of imagination in apologetics, important points to consider while speaking about Christianity, and the why Dr. Ordway wasn't satisfied by becoming an Protestant Christian and found herself, to her surprise, going all the way to Rome.

In this episode of The Cordial Catholic Podcast, I'm joined by Dr. Lawrence Feingold, one of the Catholic Church's leading theologians, to unpack what everyone needs to know about the Eucharist. We cover the Eucharist from the Old Testament, the New Testament, the Early Church Fathers, and discuss what happened to Eucharistic Theology when the Reformation happened. This is an unbelievably good discussion, with incredible depth, about the most central aspect of Catholic worship: the Eucharist. Why do Catholics believe what they believe about it? Why is it important? Why does it matter what we believe? For more from Dr. Feingold check out his incredible book The Eucharist: Mystery of Presence, Sacrifice, and Communion.

In this episode of The Cordial Catholic Podcast, I'm joined by apologist, speaker, and author Dr. Douglas Beaumont to discuss the phenomenon of Evangelical Christians "de-converting" and leaving the Christian faith. From his research-based perspective, and with the experience of a convert, Dr. Beaumont talks about some of the factors that go into what causes a person to "de-convert" from Christianity. We also dig into some of the fascinating and helpful Catholic responses to these de-conversions including understanding the right place of science and faith, solving problems with biblical interpretation, and understanding how to respond to some of the philosophical objections to evil and suffering. In this episode, Doug and I specifically respond to some of the challenges raised by recent Evangelicals who have left the faith like Jon Steingard from Hawk Nelson, Marty Sampson from Hillsong, YouTubers Rhett and Link, and Joshua Harris. However, this is also a perennial topic so we've tried out best to keep things generalized as well (in case you're listening long after these particular de-conversions).For more on Doug visit his website where you can find more information on his speaking, by his fabulous books, and follow him on his upcoming pilgrimage.For more, visit The Cordial Catholic.

In this episode of The Cordial Catholic Podcast, I'm joined by theologian and author Dr. John Bergsma to talk about his incredible conversion to the Catholic faith. Raised in the Reformed church, Dr. Bergsma was steeped both in biblical studies and in the doctrines and beliefs of his particular denomination. In this discussion, Dr. Bergsma explains how he began to see the cracks form in his Reformed Protestant worldview once he began pastoring a church. When he tried to determine which church – of all the Protestant denominations – looked most like the Early Church he was surprised to discover it was actually Catholicism! This is a great interview and a great example of an intelligent, empathetic, and spiritually energized disciple of Christ reading the Bible, studying the history of the Church, and, of all things, becoming Catholic as a result!
