Called from Labor to AI | Time For Fellowship S3E13
Welcome back to fellowship!This week, our Brosts Matt and Andrew wander headfirst into the world of AI and start asking the important questions… like “should this thing be helping run a lodge?” and “why is it better at writing emails than we are?”From drafting communications and building education to brainstorming ideas and generally making lodge life a little smoother, the brosts break down how they’re actually using AI in the real world, and in their lodge.So open up your AI, ask it how its day was, slowly realize how kind and sensitive it is, realize that it loves everything you do, begin to fall in love with it… and then hear Andrew screaming in the back of your head, “NEVER FORGET IT IS NOT PEOPLE.”!!!Because it is time for fellowship.P.S. We asked AI what Little Debbie cake Andrew is as well... "Andrew is a Swiss Roll—looks simple at first glance, but give him five minutes and suddenly you’re dealing with layers, spirals, and a suspicious amount of depth for a guy that just came out of a gas station.

Welcome back to Fellowship!Episode 2 finds your brosts Matt & Andrew still wandering the winding, slightly surreal pathways of the Conference of Grand Masters of North America.

From Rosemont With Love (COGMNA Special 1) | Time For Fellowship S3E7
Welcome back to Fellowship!Our brosts Matt & Andrew had the incredible opportunity to attend the Conference of Grand Masters of North America, where they were invited to set up a table and officially look like they knew what they were doing. For four very full days, they recorded interviews with fascinating Masons from all over the country.Some of the finest Masonic minds on the planet gather at this conference… and somehow, many of them got trapped at our table with microphones in front of them.This kicks off a multipart series you absolutely won’t want to miss. There’s wisdom, laughter, and probably at least one moment where we forgot what question we were asking. So buckle up, because we’re in Rosemont, Illinois. A city where you look around and think, “Wow… they really committed to concrete.” And honestly? As Masons, we respect that level of commitment. It's time for fellowship.

Are We Killing the Mystery? | Time For Fellowship S3E6
Welcome back to fellowship.In this episode, Matt and Andrew tackle a deceptively simple question: Is the Fraternity losing its mystery? A conversation about photos in lodge unfolds into a deeper reflection on initiation, presence, and the unintended cost of constant visibility.You can describe a thunderstorm forever, but standing in one is different. Degrees are designed to be thunderstorms. Social media has a way of flattening thunderstorms into JPEGs.They explore how overexposure can dilute ritual, how images can be misused outside their context, and why some experiences are powerful precisely because they are lived rather than shared. Social media is a great tool, we should use it, but it needs to be circumscribed. Philosophy, humor, and a healthy respect for the unknown await.Because not everything meaningful needs a camera.So put your phone down, be present, and leave the some memories where they belong: in your mind and your heart.

Finding the Inner Temple... Eventually | Time For Fellowship S3E5
Welcome back to fellowship! In this episode, the Brosts attempt to answer the philosophical question of what the Inner Temple is, how we build it, and what any of this has to do with pocket watches. Matt and Andrew wander through allegory, speculate wildly with minimal qualifications, and somehow connect temple-building to time itself. Is it deep? Maybe. Is it ridiculous? Absolutely.

The weird traditions that shape our behavior. The way structure and order can calm the chaos. And yeah, maybe a few laughs about the first time we accidentally broke protocol and got the look from the Worshipful Master.If you’ve ever left a meeting thinking, “Why don’t more people act like this outside Lodge?” this episode’s for you.Text us for FellowshipYOU CAN NOW JOIN US ON DISCORD!Please rate, review and subscribe for more fellowship!Follow Us:Tiktok
