Ep 279: Mardi Gras, Mob Football, Pancakes, and Shriving (A Buf Lenten Classic Re-drop)

Springtime brings Lent and with it come all the wonderful and wacky ways people prep for 40 days of preparation.  In this fan favorite from 2023, Harry and Rafe discuss Shrove Tuesday traditions and how they bring us to understanding the balance between feasting and fasting and staying in the the middle of the highway of virtue.#shrovetuesday #shrove #shrive #shriven #shriving #lent #pancakeday #mobfootball #royalshrovetidefootball #liberalkansas #olneyengland #ashwednesday #goodfriday #holyweek #easter #nameddays #fishfries #fattuesday #sugaronpancakes #neworleanslouisiana #riodejaneiro #virtue #thelottery #yellowwallpaper #prayer #fasting #almsgiving #chesterton #feastingandfasting #balance #bothextremes*****As always, you can reach the Buf at [email protected]*****As you know, this is an independent podcast so your hosts also carry all the expenses of running this podcast.  As such, some of you have asked how you can help out.  Well, here's the answer: support us on Buy Me a Coffee:https://buymeacoffee.com/bufnagleOn this page, you can do a really nice thing like send us a couple dollars to help cover the cost of recording and hosting and microphones and research and all that.  Any little bit really helps!  Thank you in advance!!!
