Doubting, Budgeting, Burnout, and Some NEWS

Before Easter, we recorded a podcast for this week. And then some things happened. We’re still sharing this episode, as recorded, but we’ll be back later in the week with a new episode about the passing of our Holy Father, Pope Francis, plus the upcoming conclave, the nine days of mourning, and more. We’re bringing on a special guest who is way more up on his Church history and conclave procedures than we are, so if you have questions, drop them in the comments or send them along in the dms, and we’ll put them to our expert when we record tomorrow (Thursday, 4/24/25). This episode was made possible by the support of The Catholic Balm Company, makers of clean, non-toxic personal care products for men, with scents inspired by our Catholic Faith. We love, use, and have been spending our own money on these products for years, and think you will will love them, too. So, if you’re looking for beard balms, face lotions, lip balms, soaps, and colognes that work as great as they smell and aren’t loaded up with ingredients you can’t pronounce, check them out at catholicbalm.co.Show NotesJohn Henry Newman on Difficulties versus DoubtsThe Catholic Table by Emily Stimpson ChapmanFarrow and Ball PaintsThe Inner Seas, a documentary by Kate StapletonHomeschool Connections Classes with Christopher Chapman This is a public episode.
