Water scarcity issues are also a significant concern, comparable to the public reaction to fracking. Peek notes that elected representatives must address how these massive buildings impact the national conversation regarding resource allocation and pricing. 1910 VALDEZ

AMDG. Catholic author Susan Peek joins the Kolbecast to discuss her mission: bringing the stories of lesser-known saints alive for teens and young adults. Susan found herself frustrated searching for morally-sound but still engaging stories for teenagers: “the plots might be exciting, the writer might be excellent— and yet there's so few things that we can give to teenagers to read.”Her first novel began as a movie script about Saint Camillus, whose struggle of conversion (and reconversion) has inspired many young readers. Today, Susan's collection of books for teens includes Saint Cloud of Gaul: The Prince Who Trades Kingdoms, St Dymphna of Ireland: The King's Prey, and Crusader King: A Novel of Baldwin IV and the Crusades, among many others. If you are already a fan of Susan or are just hearing her name for the first time, this episode is a must-listen for parents of Catholic teens!

Did you know: the original Hippocratic Oath is a vow to other healing gods? Are you searching for true healing, but feeling lost in the complexities of the modern healthcare system? Do you sense a disconnect between physical treatments and a deeper, spiritual well-being? Melia unfolds a fascinating discussion about the original Hippocratic Oath, the cornerstone of medical ethics, to reveal its ancient origins - as a vow to other healing gods. Many do not understand or view this oath as a spiritual contract, a verbal promise made to higher powers; and NOT God. This eye-opening podcast episode doesn't advocate for rejecting modern medicine entirely, but debunks the importance of addressing spiritual components of our health as well. Often, many wounded souls are neglected due to the healthcare system being primarily focused on physical symptoms, insurance reimbursements, and capital-driven!
