Walker and Peake discuss Popes interesting comments about a GM... again. Corey Price comes in for Trivia Thursday!

Hey folks, Dean is traveling for work this week and is going to see St. Francis' bones on display in Italy (this is not a joke), so this week we're reposting some classic Cuba content from 2022! It's the last week of Advent! We made it. We're rounding out our series on Cuba with some extremely niche content about Papal visits and Cuba. This is some really in the weeds content, but it shows a real interesting interchange between the Cuban revolution and religion. There's a dialectic at play here that is worth paying attention to! Here was the book we mentioned from Fidel on the podcast: https://archive.org/details/capitalismincris00cast/page/36/mode/2upYou can find all of JPII's addresses in Cuba here: https://www.vatican.va/content/john-paul-ii/en/travels/1998/travels/documents/trav_cuba-1998.htmlGet our Cuba Zine

The Great Rosary Campaign is an ongoing prayer and penance campaign for the conversion and strengthening of both Catholic and non-Catholic leaders.As a "Trekkie" (lover of Star Trek), we will be devoting several Great Rosary Campaigns to praying for the conversion of all remaining Star Trek cast members to the Catholic Faith.THIS WEEK of the Great Rosary Campaign: Star Trek Edition, we are praying for the conversion of Marina Sirtis, who played Counselor Deanna Troi on the various Enterprises in "Star Trek: The Next Generation." Please join us in praying that she may "live long and prosper" unto eternal life.The SUGGESTED PENANCE this week is a Holy Hour before the Blessed Sacrament, the Body, Blood, Soul, and Divinity of Our Lord in the Holy Eucharist.In these dark times, we must fight evil with the most powerful weapons we have. The Rosary is foremost among them. Join the Great Rosary Campaign today at: www.GreatRosaryCampaign.com.Countless Saints and Popes have told us that the Rosary is incredibly powerful for three things in particular:Keeping the FaithMoral renovationConversions of non-CatholicsThe Great Rosary Campaign is also based on several biblical themes and principles.First, PRAY FOR OUR BRETHREN. “Pray for one another…” (Jas. 5:16). “So then, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all men, and especially to those who are of the household of faith" (Gal. 6:10).Second, PRAY FOR OUR ENEMIES. “You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.' But I say to you, Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, so that you may be sons of your Father who is in heaven" (Matt. 5:43-44).Third, PRAY FOR ALL MEN, PARTICULARLY LEADERS AND THOSE IN AUTHORITY. “First of all, then, I urge that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgivings be made for all men, or kings and all who are in high positions…” (1 Tim. 2:1-2).Fourth, GOING INTO BATTLE WITH THE ARK. When the ancient Israelites came to Jericho, God didn't tell them to besiege the city. Instead, He told them to march around it with the Ark of the Covenant seven times, and on the seventh the walls would fall. We will now "march" in prayer for seven days with the New Ark of the Covenant, Our Lady, through the Rosary. We pray in hope that on the seventh day, a day especially devoted to Our Lady (Saturday), extraordinary graces of conversion will be given to those we are praying for.Fifth, EVANGELISM AND APOLOGETICS = LOVE + ARGUMENTS + PRAYER + PENANCE. Ultimately it is God who reveals Himself to a soul, and empowers them to say "yes" to Him by His grace. He chooses to use us, but He does not have to. We must remember that as we evangelize and defend the Faith, our arguments will be fruitless unless informed by love (charity), and reinforced by prayer and penance.Sixth, RETURNING GOOD FOR EVIL. “Do not return evil for evil, or reviling for reviling; but on the contrary bless, for to this you have been called, that you may obtain a blessing" (1 Pet. 3:9).Sign up to take part in the Great Rosary Campaign today: www.GreatRosaryCampaign.com

Today's episode is about wine, Vatican City, and the papacy.The Vatican City, officially known as the Vatican City State, is an independent city-state enclaved within Rome that serves as the headquarters of the Roman Catholic Church and the home of the Pope. As the smallest internationally recognized independent state in the world by both area and population, the history of the Vatican City is closely intertwined with that of the Papacy and the Catholic Church.One integral part of this history is wine. As wine holds religious and cultural significance for the Catholic Church, the vineyards and wineries within the walls of Vatican City and the Papal States have an extensive history dating back centuries. This blog post will provide an overview of this history, exploring the relationship between wine, the Vatican, and the Papacy throughout the years.Wine has long held religious and cultural importance within the Catholic Church. As one of the elements of the Eucharist – the ritual commemorating the Last Supper of Jesus Christ – wine holds deep spiritual meaning. Cultivating vineyards and producing sacramental wines thus have ancient origins within the Church.Archaeological evidence suggests vineyards have existed in the Vatican since Roman times. As the seat of the Roman Catholic Church was established in Rome beginning in the 4th century AD, wines grown in the surrounding regions became associated with the Papacy and the Vatican.In the Middle Ages, the Papal States expanded to encompass a large area of central Italy. Wine production flourished in these regions under papal patronage. Important wines were produced in areas near Rome, like Frascati, Est! Est!! Est!!! Di Montefiascone, and Orvieto Classico.The Avignon Papacy, from 1309 to 1377, when the Papacy resided in France instead of Rome, introduced Italian wines to the French aristocracy and royalty. The so-called “Popes' wines” gained significant renown. The Popes' treasury of wines laid the foundations for the Vatican to become a driving force in the development of Italian wines.Following the return of the Papacy to Rome, the Renaissance Popes of the 15th and 16th centuries oversaw a “golden age” for Vatican wine production. Pope Julius II, who commissioned Michelangelo to paint the Sistine Chapel ceiling, owned vineyards in Frascati and viewed wine as a status symbol among the church hierarchy.Pope Leo X, born to the famous Florentine Medici family, continued to elevate the role of wine in Vatican culture. He grew up appreciating fine wine and held lavish feasts and celebrations with copious amounts of Tuscan wine. Leo X declared Roman wine shops tax-exempt to ensure an adequate supply.Vatican wine production reached new heights under Pope Paul III in the mid-16th century. He appointed a personal “wine taster” to make the Vatican self-sufficient in wine. Vatican-owned Roman vineyards expanded via land reclamation projects along the Tiber River.Paul III established a stockpile of fine-aged wines in the Vatican cellars for his inner circle to use. Wines like Greco di Tufo were collected to fill hundreds of amphorae. This stockpile of exclusive vintage wines essentially established the Vatican as the world's first “wine bank.”In the 19th century, the Vatican's wine industry faced significant upheaval due to geopolitical changes and the phylloxera epidemic. The unification of Italy in the mid-1800s confiscated most of the Papal States' lands outside Rome. This significantly diminished Vatican-controlled vineyards and wine production and severed ties between Rome and historic wine zones like Montepulciano and Orvieto.Then, the phylloxera outbreak severely damaged vineyards across Europe. Phylloxera is an insect that feeds on and destroys grapevine roots. More Podcasts HereRead Full Content HereThe Flavors + Knowledge NewsletterProduced by SimVal Media Group, USA

Among the many curious claims is the assertion that Epstein “lived in the Vatican,” and an email to him from 2014 explains that, because Vatican City is a sovereign entity, the bank is exempt from Italy's and the European Union's transparency and regulatory rules for “elite clients.” Dr. Taylor Marshall explains.

Eddie has started playing padel, and Frank is settling in nicely to the Minnesota hockey lifestyle. Novak Djokovic is reminding the tennis world that he's still a force to be reckoned with, but has he always been chasing a big two? And Bill Belichick didn't make it into the Pro Football Hall of Fame at the first time of asking, but were his controversies with the New England Patriots enough to deny him being a first ballot HOFer?  And has the Champions League become too convoluted for its own good? Eddie thinks not and believes that the new format may be optimized for gambling, but not for actual football fans. 

The Great Rosary Campaign is an ongoing prayer and penance campaign for the conversion and strengthening of both Catholic and non-Catholic leaders.THIS WEEK of the Great Rosary Campaign, we will pray for John Hudson Dilgen, a young man suffering from the horrible disease of Epidermolysis Bullosa, which causes the skin all over his body to break out into sores and wounds. John's moving story went viral several years ago, but it now sounds as if his health may be taking a turn for the worse. He has been an incredible example of suffering with dignity, grace, and hope. Let us pray, especially if he is nearing the end of his life, that he has all the graces necessary to spend eternity with Christ.The SUGGESTED PENANCE this week is a Holy Hour before the Blessed Sacrament, the Holy Eucharist.In these dark times, we must fight evil with the most powerful weapons we have.

The Nonsense season finale starts off strong with a Kelly Fact so insane it involves a pope putting a dead pope on trial. Henvincible is just happy to see justice served (alive or not), while FNBob gets sidetracked trying to remember which historically corrupt pope era this even happened in. From there, the guys talk Derrick Rose's retirement, what it means for Chicago, and why his jersey absolutely belongs in the rafters. FNBob also retells a moment where he may—or may not—have run into D-Rose on the streets of Chicago. Then it's time to reminisce. The crew looks back on the season: the highs, the moments that worked way better than expected, and the ideas that almost happened. But no Nonsense season finale would be complete without chaos. Kelly brings out super spicy wings, and the guys must eat them while answering trivia questions about the show itself. The pain is real, the trivia is questionable, and Henvincible absolutely does not handle the first bite well. After the suffering, the episode wraps with talk about what everyone plans to do during the short break before the show returns. Is it our best episode? Maybe not. But it's a perfectly unhinged way to end the season. Highlights:

In this episode, Monks, Kings, and Popes: Christianity's Second Beginning, we trace how God used unexpected instruments to preserve and spread the faith after Rome's collapse.  From the monastic vision of Benedict of Nursia—shaping education, charity, and evangelism—to Christian kings like Emperor Justinian I influencing councils and doctrine, and popes such as Gregory the Great sending missionaries like Augustine to England, this episode explores how Christ built His church through monks, monarchs, and missions in a pivotal era of history.

Gar(t)bage is back with 2024's airport paperback papal political thriller, Edward Berger's CONCLAVE!We're learning Ralph Fiennes' full name, revisiting 3rd Rock from the Sun, and decide that every character in this film is a Pope, before discussing Catholicism and the Absolute Mysteries, power structures and rotting institutions, and what it means to stand for something instead of against something.Get ready to hear a lot about specificity becoming universality as we get into each pope's candidacy, the power of presenting alternatives in the face of certainty, and how much you have to screw up to have a sin named after you. And we're here to investigate: is John Lithgow's Father Tremblay Canadian?We're getting heavily into the ending and varying interpretations, so be warned of heavy spoilers! Next time, we're getting into Oscar talk with Paul Thomas Anderson's ONE BATTLE AFTER ANOTHER!

The Great Rosary Campaign is an ongoing prayer and penance campaign for the conversion and strengthening of both Catholic and non-Catholic leaders.THIS WEEK of the Great Rosary Campaign, we will pray for Megyn Kelly, the well-known podcaster, journalist, and former Fox News host. She was raised Catholic, though her exact relationship with the Church is unclear. Let us pray that if she is not in full communion, she comes back into full communion, and if she is, that her influence would be radically conformed to the Catholic Faith.The SUGGESTED PENANCE this week is a 24 hour water fast (nothing but water), adjusted for your state in life.In these dark times, we must fight evil with the most powerful weapons we have. The Rosary is foremost among them. Join the Great Rosary Campaign today at: www.GreatRosaryCampaign.com.Countless Saints and Popes have told us that the Rosary is incredibly powerful for three things in particular:Keeping the FaithMoral renovationConversions of non-CatholicsThe Great Rosary Campaign is also based on several biblical themes and principles.First, PRAY FOR OUR BRETHREN. “Pray for one another…” (Jas. 5:16). “So then, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all men, and especially to those who are of the household of faith" (Gal. 6:10).Second, PRAY FOR OUR ENEMIES. “You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.' But I say to you, Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, so that you may be sons of your Father who is in heaven" (Matt. 5:43-44).Third, PRAY FOR ALL MEN, PARTICULARLY LEADERS AND THOSE IN AUTHORITY. “First of all, then, I urge that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgivings be made for all men, or kings and all who are in high positions…” (1 Tim. 2:1-2).Fourth, GOING INTO BATTLE WITH THE ARK. When the ancient Israelites came to Jericho, God didn't tell them to besiege the city. Instead, He told them to march around it with the Ark of the Covenant seven times, and on the seventh the walls would fall. We will now "march" in prayer for seven days with the New Ark of the Covenant, Our Lady, through the Rosary. We pray in hope that on the seventh day, a day especially devoted to Our Lady (Saturday), extraordinary graces of conversion will be given to those we are praying for.Fifth, EVANGELISM AND APOLOGETICS = LOVE + ARGUMENTS + PRAYER + PENANCE. Ultimately it is God who reveals Himself to a soul, and empowers them to say "yes" to Him by His grace. He chooses to use us, but He does not have to. We must remember that as we evangelize and defend the Faith, our arguments will be fruitless unless informed by love (charity), and reinforced by prayer and penance.Sixth, RETURNING GOOD FOR EVIL. “Do not return evil for evil, or reviling for reviling; but on the contrary bless, for to this you have been called, that you may obtain a blessing" (1 Pet. 3:9).Sign up to take part in the Great Rosary Campaign today: www.GreatRosaryCampaign.com

If the first hundred days of a papacy can shake up the Catholic church, how much drama occurs over 80 years? For journalist Philip Shenon, there has been a constant tension – how much should the church judge the modern world and how much mercy should it extend? Philip's the author of a sweeping new history of the church since World War II. It's called Jesus Wept – Seven Popes and the Battle for The Soul of the Catholic Church. It chronicles the triumphs, controversies, and politics of the popes before Leo. GUESTPhilip Shenon, author and journalistThis program was first broadcast in August and was made on the lands of the Gadigal People.

Friends of the Rosary,Today, November 10, the Church of Christ celebrates the feast of Our Lady of Loreto, a title that refers to the Holy House of Loreto.This is the house, in the Holy Land, in which Mary was born, and where the Annunciation took place.Tradition says that angels miraculously transported it first to Tersato, Dalmatia, in 1291, then to Recanati, Italy, in 1294, and finally to Loreto, in Italy, a small town located three hours from Rome, where it has been for over six centuries.Today, the 14th-century Shrine of Loreto is one of the most famous Marian shrines in Europe and a pilgrimage center. Many miracles are attributed to this sanctuary of the Holy House.Popes have always held the in special esteem, and it is under their direct authority and protection.Ave MariaCome, Holy Spirit, come!To Jesus through Mary!Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.Please give us the grace to respond with joy!+ Mikel Amigot w/ María Blanca | RosaryNetwork.com, New YorkEnhance your faith with the new Holy Rosary University app:Apple iOS | New!

In these dark times, we must fight evil with the most powerful weapons we have.The Rosary is foremost among them.Join the Great Rosary Campaign today at: www.GreatRosaryCampaign.com.The Great Rosary Campaign is an ongoing prayer and penance campaign for the conversion and strengthening of both Catholic and non-Catholic leaders.THIS WEEK of the Great Rosary Campaign, we will pray for the conversion of fallen-away Catholic and well-known Fox News host, Sean Hannity.The SUGGESTED PENANCE this week is a 24 hour water fast (adjusted for your state in life).Countless Saints and Popes have told us that the Rosary is incredibly powerful for three things in particular:Keeping the FaithMoral renovationConversions of non-CatholicsThe Great Rosary Campaign is also based on several biblical themes and principles.First, PRAY FOR OUR BRETHREN. “Pray for one another…” (Jas. 5:16). “So then, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all men, and especially to those who are of the household of faith" (Gal. 6:10).Second, PRAY FOR OUR ENEMIES. “You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.' But I say to you, Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, so that you may be sons of your Father who is in heaven" (Matt. 5:43-44).Third, PRAY FOR ALL MEN, PARTICULARLY LEADERS AND THOSE IN AUTHORITY. “First of all, then, I urge that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgivings be made for all men, or kings and all who are in high positions…” (1 Tim. 2:1-2).Fourth, GOING INTO BATTLE WITH THE ARK. When the ancient Israelites came to Jericho, God didn't tell them to besiege the city. Instead, He told them to march around it with the Ark of the Covenant seven times, and on the seventh the walls would fall. We will now "march" in prayer for seven days with the New Ark of the Covenant, Our Lady, through the Rosary. We pray in hope that on the seventh day, a day especially devoted to Our Lady (Saturday), extraordinary graces of conversion will be given to those we are praying for.Fifth, EVANGELISM AND APOLOGETICS = LOVE + ARGUMENTS + PRAYER + PENANCE. Ultimately it is God who reveals Himself to a soul, and empowers them to say "yes" to Him by His grace. He chooses to use us, but He does not have to. We must remember that as we evangelize and defend the Faith, our arguments will be fruitless unless informed by love (charity), and reinforced by prayer and penance.Sixth, RETURNING GOOD FOR EVIL. “Do not return evil for evil, or reviling for reviling; but on the contrary bless, for to this you have been called, that you may obtain a blessing" (1 Pet. 3:9).Sign up to take part in the Great Rosary Campaign today: www.GreatRosaryCampaign.com

In this episode, I get down and dirty with a topic that triggers all the rule-followers and religious gatekeepers: salvation. Not the flannelgraph-Jesus kind where you prayed the “magic words” at age seven and then spent the next 30 years terrified you did it wrong. Nope. I'm talking about real, liberating, soul-exploding salvation.This one's especially for you if you've ever stayed in an abusive marriage because you thought God would be mad if you left. If you're exhausted from trying to please “godly” authority figures who think they are mini Popes. If you've prayed the salvation prayer 73 times just to be sure it “took.”Key Takeaways:Belief isn't a checklist. It's not about doing the right things, following the right leaders, or avoiding the wrong music. It's about trusting that Christ already did it all.The gift of salvation is already yours. Yes, even if you cuss, leave your abuser, or buy non-organic lettuce.Many Christians are still hoping for a salvation that is already theirs. Why? Because we've been taught to fear God more than we trust Him. The verse “God hates divorce” has been weaponized. (Psst…it doesn't say what you think it does, anyway. Listen to find out what the Bible actually says in Malachi.)You can experience the joy of salvation the moment you believe it's real. Like full-body joy.

Author Xavier Ayral argues that the Catholic Church is now living through a time foreseen by mystics, saints, and Marian apparitions, an era of confusion, apostasy, and deception. Citing La Salette, Fatima, Marie-Julie Jahenny, and more, he claims these prophecies foretold two anti-popes and a temporary takeover of the Church by false shepherds. Ayral explains how long-hidden Vatican documents and seer testimonies match today's liturgical chaos and doctrinal ambiguity. He connects the present crisis to Catechism 675–677, describing it as the Church's “final trial” before a divine restoration.U.S. residents!

WarRoom Battleground EP 870: False Popes Promote False Prophets

Alice Kyteler's witchcraft trial shocked 14th century Ireland. Today, the charges against her are seen largely as nonsense, and more about personal vendettas and struggles for power.
