On The Kindness Chronicles podcast, John Schwietz surprises Winona State student Addison Nash—called while she's on a boat—after her friend Sienna nominates her for a Minnesota Masonic Charities Selfless Scholarship, awarding $5,000 shared between Addison and Sienna; they discuss Addison's empathy, the death of her brother Tommy from sudden cardiac arrest, and the family's Be Like Tommy nonprofit that provides acts of kindness and “joyful experiences,” including sending campers to YMCA Camp Manitou. The episode then features Mario Esteb celebrating his Syracuse graduation and plans to pursue documentary development work, followed by his mother Rose describing a faith experience at the Shrine of Our Lady of Guadalupe in La Crosse, Wisconsin, where repeated photos and video showed a moving light-like “apparition” pointing toward crosses; staff and nuns called it a miracle and noted the “Miracle of Roses” connection to her name. The hosts close with John recounting a claustrophobic MRI experience, mentioning newfound fear of heights, and offering condolences for Kevin Gorg after his father's death and upcoming service.

The Readings for Today's Homily: https://bible.usccb.org/bible/reading...In today's homily, Fr. Chris Alar, speaks about the moral and spiritual dangers of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and how Catholics must respond with wisdom, courage, and fidelity to the truth. As Pope Leo XIII once addressed the crisis caused by the Industrial Revolution with his landmark encyclical letter Rerum Novarum, Pope Leo XIV now warns that the age of Artificial Intelligence must be guided by the protection of human dignity. Technology must serve the human person, not reduce us to data, consumers, or objects of control.Read the First Encyclical Letter of His Holiness Leo XIV Magnifica Humanitas: https://www.vatican.va/content/leo-xi... ★ Support this podcast ★

The Readings for Today's Homily: https://bible.usccb.org/bible/readings/052626.cfmIn today's homily, Fr. Anthony Gramlich, MIC reflected on the beautiful and joyful witness of St. Philip Neri, a saint who did not take himself too seriously because his heart was completely focused on God. St. Philip Neri would wear large shoes, put his clothes on inside out, and even shave only one side of his beard. He did these things so people would have a humble opinion of him. He did not want to be praised, exalted, or admired. He wanted to become small so Christ could be great in him. Even during the Oratory, surrounded by people of importance, he was willing to look foolish in the eyes of the world. Why? Because he understood that humility is the first virtue we need to practice. Fr. Anthony repeated this powerful message many times: “Be a fool for Christ.” St. Philip Neri was full of joy, full of compassion, and full of love for God and neighbor. He prayed for the fire of the Holy Spirit to come, the fire of divine love that transforms hearts.Today, St. Philip reminds us: Don't put yourself first. Don't exalt yourself. Don't worry so much about being criticized. Make yourself small. Be joyful.Be humble. Be a fool for Christ. St. Philip Neri, patron saint of joy and laughter, pray for us! ★ Support this podcast ★

We open every episode with the St. Michael prayer. You know the words by heart. But do you actually know who you are talking to?James chats with Fr. Frederick Schmidt, a Norbertine priest and sacristan at St. Michael's Abbey in Southern California, to go deep on one of the most powerful and misunderstood figures in all of Scripture and Church history. Fr. Frederick and his fellow Norbertine Fr. Peregrine just released a children's book, "St. Michael the Archangel Through the Ages," and what comes out of this conversation is anything but child's play.You will hear about the bishop who delayed consecrating a shrine St. Michael told him to build...so St. Michael just did it himself, left an altar, lit candles, and pressed his footprint into the stone. You will hear about another bishop who ignored St. Michael twice, so the archangel reached down and poked a hole in his skull...a hole still visible to this day. You will hear about the nine choirs of angels, what each one actually does, and where St. Michael fits in the hierarchy. You will hear the real story behind Pope Leo XIII's vision — Satan asking God for a hundred years to destroy the Church, God saying yes — and how the St. Michael prayer was born from that moment. And you will hear about seven ancient shrines built at different times across different centuries that form a perfectly straight line from Ireland to the Holy Land.

The Readings for Today's Homily: https://bible.usccb.org/bible/readings/052426-DayIn today's homily, Fr. Chris Alar, explains the meaning of Pentecost and the two moments when the Apostles received the Holy Spirit.In John 20, Jesus breathes the Holy Spirit upon the Apostles, giving them grace for personal sanctification and the forgiveness of sins. In Acts 2, fifty days after the Resurrection, the Holy Spirit descends publicly upon the 120 gathered in the Upper Room, launching the Church's mission to the world. These two Pentecost moments are not contradictory — they reveal different manifestations of the same Holy Spirit: personal, sacramental, communal, and missionary. ★ Support this podcast ★

The Readings for Today's Homily: https://bible.usccb.org/bible/reading...Father Chris Alar, MIC, reflects on John 17, the high priestly prayer of Jesus, the longest prayer of Christ on earth and one of the greatest chapters in Scripture. At the Last Supper, Jesus prays for Himself, His disciples, and the whole Church, consecrating Himself as the Victim who will offer everything on the Cross. In this prayer, He reveals the love of the Trinity, the mystery of the Eucharist, the priesthood, salvation, sanctification, and our call to intimacy with God. ★ Support this podcast ★

The Readings for Today's Homily: https://bible.usccb.org/bible/reading...Father Mark Baron, MIC, reflects on John 17:11b-19, where Jesus prays that His disciples may be consecrated in truth. To be consecrated means to be made holy — set apart for God's will. Through Baptism, Christ gives us a supernatural life and calls us to respond with our own “yes” to the Father, living in love, truth, and surrender to the Word of God. ★ Support this podcast ★

Father David Gunter, MIC, explains that the Eucharist was instituted by Jesus at the Last Supper and taught throughout Scripture as the Bread of Life. He poses a challenging question about “modern Judas,” not to condemn particular people, but as a spiritual warning: those who reject or refuse to believe in Christ's true presence in the Eucharist risk following the same path of unbelief that preceded Judas' betrayal. The message is an invitation to examine one's own faith and to pray for a deeper belief in Jesus truly present in the Eucharist. ★ Support this podcast ★

The Readings for Today's Homily: https://bible.usccb.org/bible/reading...Father Chris Alar, MIC, shares the incredible story of St. Rita of Cascia, the beloved “Patron Saint of the Impossible.” From the signs surrounding her birth to her difficult marriage, deep sacrifices, miraculous roses, devotion to Christ's Passion, and incorrupt body after death, St. Rita reveals the power of faith, perseverance, forgiveness, and surrender to God. Known as a protector in impossible situations and patroness of difficult marriages, St. Rita reminds us that no suffering is wasted when united to Christ. ★ Support this podcast ★

Today, the Church celebrates the Memorial of the Blessed Virgin Mary, Mother of the Church, a beautiful reminder that Mary is the Mother who leads us always to her Son. Jesus came into the world through her hands, and in the same way, we are invited to entrust ourselves, our families, our country, and our future to her maternal care.In this Memorial Day homily, Fr. Chris Alar, connects this Marian trust with the meaning of sacrifice, freedom, faith, and eternal salvation.As we remember the soldiers who gave their lives for the freedom and safety of our country, Fr. Chris reminds us that true freedom must never be separated from God. Those who made the ultimate sacrifice did not place personal safety above the defense of what is true, noble, and worth protecting.Fr. Chris also offers a powerful warning for our times: when fear or the promise of “personal safety” leads society to surrender its God-given freedoms, especially the freedom to worship. Christians must remain awake and faithful. We must never allow our churches to be closed or our faith to be silenced in the name of fear.As Catholics and citizens, we are called to reflect seriously on our responsibility to protect religious freedom, to honor the Christian values upon which this nation was founded, and to remember those who fought to defend them.On this day, we turn first to Mary, Mother of the Church, asking her to lead us to Jesus. We honor the flag, we remember the fallen, we entrust their souls to Mary's hands, and above all, we kneel before Jesus Christ in the Eucharist; the source of our eternal life.May we never trade eternal salvation for temporary security, and may Our Lady, Mother of the Church, guide our nation back to her Son. ★ Support this podcast ★

Nick and Benji present… The Chat: Ianto's Shrine and Torchwood… Behind-the-scenes and Drama Tease: Torchwood: Fare Well… Archive Extras: Bang-Bang-A-Boom.

There are some conversations that feel less like an interview and more like stepping back into a particular moment in time. This episode of MyMusic is very much one of those.Graham Coath sits down once again with Dave Derby to talk about the return of cult 90s alternative band The Dambuilders, the reworking of classic tracks like “Shrine”, and what it means to revisit music that once shaped an entire phase of your life.What follows is a thoughtful, funny and deeply nostalgic conversation about growing up in bands, discovering music before the internet changed everything, touring through the college radio era, and the strange beauty of reconnecting with people and songs decades later. Dave reflects on Honolulu, Boston, fanzines, cassettes, fax machines, krautrock, improvisation, Thin Lizzy, jazz influences, and the powerful friendships that lie beneath great bands.Along the way, Graham and Dave explore whether modern technology and AI are helping creativity or slowly flattening it, why younger musicians are craving something more human again, and why the spirit of the early 90s still matters in 2026.At its heart, this episode is about connection. The kind built in rehearsal rooms, tiny clubs, long conversations and shared obsession with music. It's about rediscovering what made those moments special in the first place and realising that perhaps the most important things never really disappear.If you remember the energy of alternative music in the 90s, or simply love hearing musicians talk honestly about creativity, friendship and the evolution of music culture, this is one to settle into.

The Readings for Today's Homily: https://bible.usccb.org/bible/readings/051926.cfmWhat does it really mean to glorify God the Father? Father Chris Alar, MIC, explains that glorifying God begins with obedience — not out of fear, but with the trust of a child who knows the Father loves him. Jesus reveals this perfectly on the Cross, where His total obedience opens the way for us to return to God. ★ Support this podcast ★

The Readings for Today's Homily: https://bible.usccb.org/bible/readings/051426-AscensionOn Ascension Thursday, Fr. Matthew Tomeny, MIC, reflected on the Church's hopeful anticipation of Christ's return after the Resurrection and Ascension. He emphasized that Christ remains with us daily through the Eucharist, uniting the Church as one body journeying together toward His Kingdom. He explained the ancient Christian tradition of facing East during prayer, and the celebration of the Mass as a symbol of looking toward Christ, the true focus of worship. The priest is not meant to be the center of attention; rather, all are called to look beyond human weakness and keep their eyes fixed on Jesus. Through this shared orientation toward God, the Church continues to always follow Christ in the right direction with faith and hope. ★ Support this podcast ★

The Readings for Today's Homily: https://bible.usccb.org/bible/readings/051326.cfmOn the Feast of Our Lady of Fatima, Fr. Chris Alar reflects on Our Lady's urgent call to prayer, penance, reparation, and consecration for world peace. He explains Sister Lucia's clarification to Pope St. John Paul II about the true way Russia was to be consecrated: Solemnly, universally, and in union with the bishops of the world. Father Chris highlights the significance of the March 25, 1984 consecration, and connects it to March 25, 2022, when Pope Francis consecrated Russia and Ukraine to the Immaculate Heart of Mary with the bishops of the world. Fatima is not just a message from the past — It is a call for our time._______________________________The Seven Fatima PrayersDuring the course of the apparitions at Fatima, the three child seers were taught five unique andpowerful prayers, two by the Angel of Peace and three by the Mother of God. Later, appearing toSister Lucy at Rianjo, Spain, Our Lord Jesus Christ dictated two further prayers. For millions ofpeople, these prayers are today a living embodiment of the Message of hope and peace whichOur Lady gave the world at Fatima.Recently a practice has developed of reciting one or more of these prayers on a daily basis. Feelfree to recite them in any order which you find most comforting and appropriate.MondayMy God, I believe, I adore, I hope and I love You!

Friends of the Rosary,Tomorrow, May 13, is the Feast of Our Lady of Fatima, Our Lady of the Rosary.Last week, Pope Leo XIV celebrated Mass at the Pontifical Shrine of the Blessed Virgin of the Rosary of Pompeii, solemnly reciting the Supplication to the Virgin of the Rosary of Pompeii, which takes place every year on May 8 and on the first Sunday of October.After greeting disabled persons and venerating the relics of the shrine's founder, St. Bartolo Longo, the Pontiff recalled in his homily: “I had to come here, therefore, to place my service under the protection of the Blessed Virgin.”"The Hail Mary is an invitation to joy: it tells Mary, and in her to all of us, that on the rubble of our humanity tried by sin and therefore always inclined to prevarications, oppression, and wars, came the caress of God, the caress of mercy, which takes on a human face in Jesus. Mary thus becomes the Mother of Mercy. Disciple of the Word and instrument of his Incarnation, she truly reveals herself to be “full of grace.” Everything in her is grace!""Everything happens in the power of the Holy Spirit, who overshadows Mary and makes her virginal womb fruitful. This moment in history has a sweetness and power that attract the heart and bring it to that contemplative height in which the prayer of the Holy Rosary sprouts. A prayer which, having arisen and developed progressively in the second millennium, has its roots in the history of salvation, and it is precisely in the Angel's Greeting to the Virgin that it has as its prelude."“Hail Mary!” The repetition of this prayer in the Rosary is like the echo of Gabriel's greeting, an echo that spans the centuries and guides the believer's gaze to Jesus, seen with the eyes and heart of the Mother. Jesus adored, contemplated, assimilated in each of his mysteries, so that with Saint Paul we can say: “It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me” (Gal 2:19). Preceded by the proclamation of the Word of God, set between the Our Father and the Glory Be, the Hail Mary that is repeated in the Holy Rosary is an act of love."“From this Shrine, whose façade St. Bartolo Longo conceived as a monument to peace, today we raise our Supplication with faith,” Pope Leo added. “Jesus told us that all things can be achieved by prayer made in faith (cf. Mt 21:22). And St. Bartholo Longo, thinking of Mary's faith, defines her as ‘omnipotent by grace.' Through her intercession, may there come from the God of peace an outpouring of mercy that touches hearts, appeases resentment and fratricidal hatred, and enlightens those who have special responsibilities of government.”Alleluia! Christ is Risen!Ave Maria!Come, 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!

Chris Alar, MIC, offers a powerful teaching on Baptism: It is not just a symbol, but a saving sacrament instituted by Christ. He explains why the Catholic Church has always baptized infants, why Baptism brings the grace of the Holy Spirit, and why parents should never delay giving their children this extraordinary gift from God. But he goes even deeper, raising an important question many Catholics may not know how to answer: Can a Baptism ever be illicit?  ★ Support this podcast ★

MUNA at The Shrine (night 2) May 9th 2026https://youtu.be/7RKnoTJLolM?si=ZLbMGKTkmKB8mX0u

The Hour Is Coming: When Killing in God's Name Is Mistaken for WorshipIn this homily, Fr. Chris Alar, MIC, reflects on Jesus' warning in the Gospel: “The hour is coming when everyone who kills you will think he is offering worship to God” (Jn 16:2). He explains how, throughout history, people of different religions and ideologies have wrongly justified violence, persecution, slavery, and even murder by claiming they were doing the will of God. But this Gospel is not only about physical persecution: Father Chris also turns the message toward Christians today, reminding us that we too can “kill” with our tongues through slander, gossip, harsh judgment, and the destruction of another person's reputation. ★ Support this podcast ★

Green Bay's Draft Without Pick No. 1 The Detroit Lions Podcast put the NFC North under the microscope. Green Bay navigated the 2026 NFL Draft without a first-round pick. Inside the room, they essentially treated Micah Parsons as that missing top selection. It framed every other choice and every roster bet. That context matters for Detroit Lions fans sizing up the division. Scouting and process took center stage. The conversation cut through recycled big boards and highlighted year-round work. Senior Bowl trips. Shrine practices back when they were in St. Petersburg. Long lists stacked against real tape. Original evaluations, not echoes. That lens set up a blunt look at how Green Bay built its board and why. Micah Parsons and the Ten-Month ACL Clock The timetable was clear. The modern ACL return is a ten-month arc from injury to full snap load. Map that to the NFL calendar and the target becomes around Week Five. Expect a roster stash to start. The assumption is the PUP list to open the season, then a ramp-up to real usage. Expectations were once sky-high. A defensive coach even floated league-leading sack potential before leaving for the Miami job. Reality now lives in checkpoints, not headlines. That timeline shapes how Detroit prepares to block, chip, and slide protections when the calendar turns. It also mirrors a familiar Detroit thread. Brian Branch's earlier injury surfaced as a reference point for working backward from health, not hype. The New PUP Rule and Week Five Targets The NFL tweaked the PUP rules, and it changes the math. Previously, players on PUP could not practice with the team for four weeks. Now the no-practice window is two weeks. After that, teams can designate to return and build a two-week ramp while the player remains on PUP. For a contender, that is roster flexibility. For the Detroit Lions, it is a calendar to monitor across the division. Layer in Green Bay's broader injury picture. Devonte Wyatt is on track. Tucker Craft's timing aligns with the start of training camp, with Week One availability expected. Extension talks are in line for him. Jordan Riley ruptured an Achilles. That points to season-long IR unless there is a settlement. Given the severity, the incentive is to keep him around and let the rehab run its course. What It Means Around the North The Packers' first-round void, the Parsons clock, and the PUP tweak all converge on the same conclusion. September snaps will look different than October snaps. Week Five becomes a circle date. The Detroit Lions will plan protections and personnel with that in mind. The NFL is a timeline league. Health windows decide matchups as much as schemes. Today's recap keeps the calendar front and center for Detroit and the division. #detroitlions #lions #detroitlionspodcast #nflpuplist #packersdraft #micahparsonsacl #brandoncisse #keithabney #jagerburton #danidennis-sutton Learn more about your ad choices.
