Fun Fact Time w/ James D.

We are back with our second episode of the week as James interviews Mark P. about his state report on South Carolina. Mark delivers a ton of great info. They dive into the state’s quirky history, including the "odd law" that actually banned tattoos in the state until 2004! Once the state business was settled, Mark stuck around to discuss his current reading obsession: a series all about dragons.Of course, it wouldn’t be a show without a little side-tracking. Mr. Eck gets hit with a major wave of Hanna-Barbera nostalgia, though we had to remind him to keep his picnic baskets guarded around here! We wrap the episode with our signature jokes and a whole lot of South Carolina spirit. Don't miss it!

Welcome back to the fun-sized chaos of Fun Fact Time! We are returning to our roots this week, diving back into our state report interview series where the experts are under four feet tall and the facts are (mostly) accurate.Host James D. sits down with Owen Gerdy to explore the wonders of New Jersey. From the Shore to the Garden State's hidden gems, Owen breaks down why his chosen state is a standout. But this isn't just a geography lesson—we’re digging into Owen’s current reading list to see what’s on his bookshelf.Things get a little... supernatural (?) this episode. Bob the Skeleton is acting more lively than usual. It appears a possession has taken place—is James inhabiting Bob, or has Bob finally taken the reins? Either way, Bob has plenty of comments to share throughout the recording.

Lent is over, and we are back! After a 40-day journey, James and Mr. Eck are returning to the microphones, along with regular David D., for a "back to normal" session. In this episode:St. Joseph’s Update: Happenings and upcoming events at the school.The Madness Ends: We wrap up the NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament. We’re breaking down the Michigan vs. UConn final and—more importantly—revisiting our brackets to see who actually knew what they were talking about (and who was just guessing).Hot Takes: James sounds off on Tiger TV. Whether you're a fan or a critic, you’ll want to hear this breakdown.The Force is Awakening: We look ahead to the calendar. With May 4th approaching, the conversation naturally shifts to Star Wars. Could a themed episode be in the works? I have a good feeling about this.The Post-Lenten Recovery: We’re shaking off the dust and getting back into the swing of things with full-strength coffee, tootsie rolls, and zero restrictions.

James and Andrew's dad is sitting pretty with a bracket that looks surprisingly clean—even his misses aren't doing much damage to his deep-run potential.The Basement: Meanwhile, Mr. Eck is feeling the heat in last place. His entire survival depends on some high-stakes outcomes for Virginia and Kansas. Is a comeback possible, or is it game over?The Legend of Chuck Norris: Stick around until the very end, where James and Andrew dive into the world of Chuck Norris "facts." We aren't sure if they're jokes or just terrifying truths, but we’re learning together.Fun Fact: Chuck Norris doesn’t wear a watch. He decides what time it is. (Hopefully, he decides it’s time for Mr. Eck to win a game.)

In this special episode, James sits down with Sister Gabriela, the Vocation Director for the Sisters of Charity of Our Lady, Mother of the Church. Visiting us from the Motherhouse in Baltic, Connecticut, Sister Gabriela brings a wealth of joy and wisdom to the St. Joseph’s School community here in Danville.While the original conversation was so engaging that it lasted for nearly an hour, this episode has been carefully trimmed down to about 25 minutes of high-impact storytelling and spiritual advice. Both James and Mr. Eck learned a great deal during their time with Sister, and they are excited to share the highlights of that deep-dive conversation with our listeners.This episode focuses on two timely themes:Vocations: What it means to truly listen for God’s call and how students can start "tuning in" to His plan for their lives.Lenten Reflection: Since we are currently in the heart of the Lenten season, Sister Gabriela offers practical ways to improve our preparation and participation during this holy time.Sister Gabriela will be visiting with the students at St. Joseph’s School throughout the day this Friday and will be present at all three parish Masses this weekend to share her mission and make special presentations to the congregation.We are incredibly grateful for the extra time Sister Gabriela spent with the team, and we hope this conversation inspires your own Lenten journey.
