Patrick launches into listeners' heartfelt questions about faith, anger, liturgical customs, and Catholic identity, peppering the conversations with wisdom, humor, and personal stories. One moment Patrick unfolds advice about handling irritation over “organized religion,” while the next, he responds to a Marine’s anxieties about spiritual witness among friends. Quirky banter with Cyrus seeps in between weighty reflections, all while Patrick threads practical suggestions for tithing, grappling with prayer, and recognizing unity even when church customs unexpectedly shift. Carmen (email) - Is it a sin to get angry or upset when people say they don’t like “organized” religion? (00:41) Marcin (email) - Why is everyone always beating up on Catholics? I just don’t get it, why are we so hated. (05:22) Zach - Going into the Marines Corps. with a buddy who isn’t very religious. How can I bring him to the faith? (12:33) Maria (email) - I travel a lot for work/fun, sometimes even up to 4 different dioceses per month for Sunday mass! Which parish do I give my weekly tithe to? When I encounter a situation at a parish in which the Eucharist appears to be treated illicitly (for example leavened bread or missing essential rubrics) should I still receive the communion or hold off? (18:05) Ruben (email) – Were the Armenians the first practicing Christians? (29:44) Rick (email) - If God allowed you to go back in time and be an eyewitness to any one of Jesus' many miracles, which one would you choose and why? (32:37) Paul (email) - I feel like I compartmentalize my prayer: Praying to God at church (Mass, Adoration), formal prayers at home, and my informal conversation with God throughout the day. But it feels like I’m praying to three different Gods. How do you merge these? (39:37) David - What are the differences between the new mass said now vs. the pre-Vatican II mass? (45:42)

All this and much, much less! Debts No Honest Man Can Pay is a curated collection of musical eclectica & other noodle stories.

Ep.#1 "Bequeath" credits: Bequeath written & narrated by Xavier Combe Episode written & produced by Jim Hall Bienvenue! We are delighted you are here for our inaugural episode. May we set the table for you with some fine French wine (1958 Chateau Lafite Rothschild) and pair it with American Velveeta Cheese Product. Oui, you are in for a Une aventure mouvementee!(Wild Ride). Chock-full of Absurd & Quirky stories and song. Canary Canard is your Paris Home Companion without the Prairie... Presented from the stage of the Muffy Drake Lost Bistro Cabaret, you will hear quirky & absurd songs and stories with a French sensibility and worldview. Xavier Combe had a storied career while working at French public radio for decades as a translator that included being the voice of Nobel Prize Lauerates and Academy Award winners. Jim Hall is a 2-time Peabody Award winner for his work in television as part of an investigative team. Together, they forged a Franco-American alliance with Canary Canard Studios. CC produces podcasts and short films with over 100 Official Selections worldwide. Take a look and listen here: canarycanard.com WARNING: Full Disclosure-Elements of this podcast were made with AI. It's apparent, the fix is in, and has been in the works for some time to flip the script into Autocracy. As creatives, what are we to do? How can we possibly fight back with equal measure? Canary Canard Studios was created to be a cudgel to Far Right politics. We ultimately felt like we were taking a knife to thermonuclear gunfight. The struggle was how to amplify our voice and message to Roll Back this RED TIDE. Artificial intelligence was used in the production of this podcast. We disclose that openly because we understand the concern. AI carries profound risks: it exists in a world already marked by war, violence, disinformation, and the possible displacement of artists and human labor. We do not dismiss those fears; we share many of them. For us, AI is not authorship, ideology, or replacement. It is a tool governed by human hands, human judgment, and human values. We remain fully responsible for every creative and ethical choice. But, why? We believe the world is hurtling, yet again, towards a critical mass and Democracy is worth saving, by any means necessary. In the end: “Well, Doctor, what have we got—a republic or a monarchy?” Ben Franklin replied: “A republic, if you can keep it.”
Portland’s Lloyd Center is scheduled to close Aug. 8 after more than 65 years in business. The current owner, Urban Renaissance Group, plans to demolish the mall to make way for housing, businesses and a new music venue. Groups such as Save Lloyd Center Mall and the Save Lloyd Ice Coalition are holding out hope that a city hearing in June could prevent the mall’s closure, but it seems likely that the Lloyd Center is in its final days. After its last anchor stores shuttered in 2021, the mall’s low rents and large usable space attracted a wide array of community groups and independent retailers. In its last incarnation, the mall became a hub for the kind of quirky community that Portland prides itself on. We’ll listen back to three conversations that capture that recent era: Jason Leivian is the owner of Floating World Comics. We spoke with him in 2022, shortly after he relocated his store from Old Town to the Lloyd Center. In 2023, we talked about a production of Samuel Beckett’s “Happy Days” that was staged in a former Victoria’s Secret store in the Lloyd Center. It was put on by the Northwest Classical Theatre Collaborative, which aims to bring theater to nontraditional spaces. We were joined by director Patrick Walsh, the collaborative’s executive artistic director, and Portland actress Diane Kondrat, who starred as “Winnie” in the play. Finally, Krista Catwood joined us last summer to talk about the Food Court 5000. That’s a 1980s-themed mall walk that Catwood leads every Sunday morning in the Lloyd Center.
This week on Get Out There, we hit the road for quirky, short summer day trips!

Welcome back, WIFs.This week, the sisters are talking about something wildly underrated:whimsy.Not optimizing your life.Not fixing yourself.Not becoming better.Just…enjoying it.We get into why adults are so serious, how tiny moments (like drinking water from a wine glass) can shift your whole mood, and why you might need a solo playdate more than another self-improvement routine.Lauren and Michelle also share what they're currently reading, watching, and listening to—including a conversation around therapy, self-understanding, and learning to work with the different “parts” of ourselves instead of against them.This episode is your reminder that not everything needs to be serious.Some things can simply be joyful. Quirky. Comforting. Whimsical.Press play, get cozy… and come find a little whimsy with us.Resources: A Cozy Night For ReadersFollow Us!Shop Our Cozy Candle LineCheck Out Our WebsiteThis episode is sponsored by Let It Be Us and Chicago Private Wealth Group

In this episode of Take-Away with Sam Oches, Sam talks with Rachel Cope, founder and CEO of 84 Hospitality, which has four concepts in its portfolio, including the eight-unit Empire Slice House. Rachel — who NRN recently named to the Power List of restaurant founders, and who was also named a 2026 James Beard Award Semifinalist for Outstanding Restaurateur — opened the first Empire in 2013, and every restaurant that she's opened since has been imbued with the five things she's passionate about: people, art, music, booze, and of course food. In fact, 84 Hospitality is so committed to the atmosphere of their restaurants that they don't even call them restaurants; they call them “hangouts,” because their main goal is for customers to enjoy themselves on site and plug into their community. Rachel joined the podcast to talk about the details that go into a great restaurant atmosphere — from a curated music playlist to free prosecco pours — and about how she's positioning Empire Slice House and its counter service offshoot, Empire Slice Shop, to be a major growth opportunity. In this conversation, you'll find out why:The best leaders figure out how to adapt to their situationA carefully tailored restaurant atmosphere can be the difference between a good time and a great timeCreativity must be balanced with practicality Quirky real estate is a great characteristic — until you need to scale The restaurant industry must resist becoming too transactional Have feedback or ideas for Take-Away?

This weeks sponsor: Probio Carbon enriched biocharhttps://www.probiocarbon.ieA one-acre garden can feel like a whole world if you design it for discovery, and Elma's Poppy Garden proves it. We're back with our open garden features, heading to a “quirky Irish garden” in County Meath where winding paths, salvaged treasures, and bold planting choices create that constant sense of what's around the next bend.We talk about the honest beginnings most of us recognise: a new build site, uncovered topsoil turning into a weed factory, and a first tiny flower bed that flips a switch. Elma shares the real learning curve behind the charm, from plants that simply refuse to thrive to the moment a soil test explains everything. If you garden on alkaline soil, you'll pick up practical, low-fuss approaches for choosing the right plants, using containers, and stopping expensive mistakes from repeating.Then we take a virtual walk through the garden: woodland shade created by fast-growing trees, cheap DIY woodland paths with cardboard and mulch, black bamboo used for sound and surprise, and a house wrapped in climbers. We also get into pot displays, nursery plants you don't see everywhere, and brilliant upcycling ideas like turning old school lockers into planters. Along the way, we dig into autumn colour favourites, standout conifers and specimen trees, plus what wet ground teaches you when an orchard plan doesn't quite deliver.If you enjoy open gardens, cottage garden style planting, and straight-talking advice that makes you feel braver about experimenting, you'll get loads from this one.

Welcome back friends! Tonight, we continue our journey with The Bee and the Orange Tree by Madame d'Aulnoy… a dreamy fairy tale of devotion, bravery, and quiet magic.Before we drift into Part 2, here's a reminder of where our story left off…In Part 1, we met Princess Aimée, lost at sea as a baby and raised among ogres—yet somehow growing into a kind, gentle, and courageous young woman. Living in the shadows of danger, she quietly devoted herself to protecting others.One day, after a fierce storm, she discovers a shipwrecked stranger—Prince Aimé. Though they cannot understand each other's words, a deep connection forms between them. She hides him away to protect him from the ogres, returning each day with food and care… and slowly, something tender begins to grow between them.But danger lingers close. As the prince begins to suspect her true identity, and their bond deepens, their fragile safety hangs by a thread…And now, Part 2…Faced with a forced marriage to the young ogre, Aimée must act quickly to save the prince—and herself. With courage, quick thinking, and a touch of enchantment, the two set out on a perilous escape.What follows is a journey filled with transformation, clever disguises, narrow escapes, and unwavering love… as they face relentless pursuit and discover the true strength of their bond.So settle in, and let yourself be carried gently into the rest of this enchanting tale…Sweet dreams

In this episode of the Planet MicroCap Podcast, I spoke with David Bastian, CIO of Kingdom Capital Advisors, to explore how he uncovers “quirky” opportunities in the microcap market where investor interest has disappeared but internal catalysts remain. David walks through why he focuses on self-help stories - businesses that can unlock value through asset sales, operational improvements, or debt reduction - rather than waiting on macro tailwinds, and shares real-world examples of turnarounds, restructurings, and special situations where narrative disconnects created compelling setups. We also dive into the risks of leverage, the importance of management incentives, and why finding value in microcaps often means getting comfortable where the market is not. We mention several companies and sectors during this conversation, and I'm not a shareholder in any of them.

Today I'm opening up a much-needed, hope-filled conversation about neurodivergence in Catholic families with Ginny Kochis, author of Quirky Catholic Kids. Because here's the truth so many moms need to hear: Your child isn't broken. And neither are you. In today's episode we talk about: What neurodivergence actually means (in real life, not just labels) Why behavior is communication—not defiance The difference between tantrums and meltdowns (and why it matters so much) How to discipline with both clarity and compassion Practical ways to navigate things like screens, routines, and overwhelm And how to help your child experience God's love in a way that fits how they're uniquely wired This conversation is full of both deep encouragement and real, practical tools you can start using right away! Because holiness doesn't look one way and "typical" isn't the goal. And your beautifully unique, unrepeatable child is fully capable of becoming a saint exactly as they are. If you've ever felt alone, overwhelmed, or unsure how to support your child grab your earbuds and join me for: Raising Quirky Catholic Kids with Ginny Kochis.

Supporting 2e students continues to be one of the biggest challenges for those of us raising twice-exceptional children, and today we're going to do a deep dive into how to do this. Maria Kennedy, director of the Bridges Educational Group at Bridges Academy joins me to talk about how the definition of giftedness in some countries keeps gifted students from getting into gifted programs, the importance of appreciating every child's unique strengths and value, and ways parents can advocate for their children's unique learning profile, even within their existing school systems that may not be designed to support or understand neurodivergent learners. ABOUT MARIA KENNEDY Maria Kennedy first joined the Bridges Academy staff as the director of the Phoenix Program. After successfully growing the program each year, she has taken on the position of director of the Bridges Educational Group. A speaker, author, and advocate, Maria has been featured on “Bright and Quirky,” as a panelist and educational expert. Several schools have used her webcast, ‘Strengths, Challenges, and my journey as my son's advocate,” for teacher training. An educator for almost 30 years, Maria received her B.Ed. and M.Ed. in education from Manchester University (U.K). She earned Advanced Teacher Status from the Manchester Department of Education for her ability to develop curriculum and her skills within the classroom. She traveled internationally, teaching students and training teachers how to tap into the strengths of their gifted and challenged students. THINGS YOU'LL LEARN IN THIS EPISODE How the definition of giftedness in some countries prevents gifted students from getting into gifted programs Why we should lean into widening the scope of what giftedness means so we can properly identify everyone's gifts What appreciating everyone's unique value can bring to a child's education and development What the roadblocks are for our educational system to be more open to embracing the changes needed How parents who are navigating a traditional educational system can advocate for their 2e children Learn more about your ad choices.

With Andy on the road, Brendan! is joined by various members of the Fried Egg Golf team for a Wednesday medley episode. He opens by himself following the latest news from Tiger Woods, who announced he was stepping away from the game to seek treatment and focus on his health. Brendan provides the latest on the situation before transitioning into a previously recorded segment with Kevin Van Valkenburg discussing this morning's release of the police report from Tiger's Friday arrest (06:25). The two also unpack some remarks from Browns owner Jimmy Haslam, who is finding a way to ruin Brendan's day in March instead of just during Sundays during the football season. Meg Adkins then stops by to preview this week's Augusta National Women's Amateur (29:35). Meg runs through the top storylines of the week, ANWA's place in the greater women's golf ecosystem, and the quirky format that leads to an interesting leaderboard late on Sunday. Lastly, Joseph LaMagna joins Brendan ahead of his favorite PGA Tour event, the Valero Texas Open at TPC San Antonio (53:35).

MJ starts off by sharin' their PhD dissertation after their marathon catch-up of "Secret Lives of Mormon Wives".
