It's the long awaited/slightly dreaded alcohol episode. What is the actual Catholic view on drinking underage? Is it even a big deal? Why is it so annoying? Should we submit America to papal rule? All questions that get discussed today. twitter.com/bropostle twitter.com/CatholicPat patreon.com/TheCrunch facebook.com/thecrunchcast IF YOU WANT TO SEND QUESTIONS TO US: DM on twitter ethan@thecrun...

I started reading St. Francis de Sales' book, Introduction to the Devout Life, as a part of my Lenten prayer this year. There are some things that I wanted to discuss with Patrick. We also become the bouquet boys. twitter.com/bropostle twitter.com/CatholicPat patreon.com/TheCrunch facebook.com/thecrunchcast Support the show (http://www.patreon.com/thecrunch) Advertising Inquiries: https://redc...

Lent is upon us. What are you giving up? Why? What are you adding? Why? Patrick tries to figure out what he's doing with his life while I recount the different times in my life that Lent was good/bad/nonexistent. We hope you enjoy. twitter.com/bropostle twitter.com/CatholicPat patreon.com/TheCrunch Support the show (http://www.patreon.com/thecrunch) Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com...

Confession is the name of the game this week. We pray that you learn something you didn't know about the sacrament, and are encouraged to go soon, even if you just went like, last year. Also, apologies to those that play bingo with their grandmother. twitter.com/bropostle twitter.com/CatholicPat patreon.com/TheCrunch Support the show (http://www.patreon.com/thecrunch) Advertising Inquiries: ht...

I just finished 33 Days to Morning Glory, and having our local Marian lover Patrick to unpack with was very handy. We hope that you enjoy and learn a little bit about the consecration, and maybe even decide to do it yourself! twitter.com/bropostle twitter.com/CatholicPat patreon.com/TheCrunch Support the show (http://www.patreon.com/thecrunch) Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands Pr...

I regale Patrick with my story of how I almost got in a fight at my friend's birthday party, which leads to a rousing discussion on the complimentarity of men and women, and finding our identity in Christ before finding our identity in another person. twitter.com/bropostle twitter.com/CatholicPat patreon.com/TheCrunch Support the show (http://www.patreon.com/thecrunch) Advertising Inquiries: h...

At the 10 minute mark we really dive into society and the problems we have with the way things are going in our country, as well as the Church's response. I hope that you can get something out of it, because I really just word vomited and hoped it was good. twitter.com/bropostle twitter.com/CatholicPat patreon.com/TheCrunch Support the show (http://www.patreon.com/thecrunch) Advertising Inquir...

Alternatively: CRUNCH on your Bible. Catholics unfortunately get a bad rap when it comes to our knowledge of the Scriptures. Don't let that intimidate you, because neither of us are that good at it either. twitter.com/bropostle twitter.com/CatholicPat patreon.com/TheCrunch Support the show (http://www.patreon.com/thecrunch) Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands Privacy & Opt-Out:...

Patrick made me name it this. This week we talk about the upcoming semester, and the dangers that lie in both over-committing and under-committing oneself. Also icemageddon.

Patrick and I reflect on our time at SEEK 2017, discuss some stories we'd like to share, and talk about where to go from here. We hope you find our experiences relatable to your own prayer struggles, even if you didn't go on SEEK! twitter.com/bropostle twitter.com/CatholicPat patreon.com/TheCrunch soundcloud.com/bropostle Support the show (http://www.patreon.com/thecrunch) Advertising Inqu...

New Year, New Me(me). This time of year, it's easy to get caught up in all of the plans we have for ourselves and our lives. Maybe we should forget some of our plans, and listen to someone else's, be that a friends's plan to hangout, or God's plan for your life. Both require a surrender of our own reason to something outside of ourselves. twitter.com/bropostle twitter.com/CatholicP...

True Christian friendship is important, be it between a guy and a girl, or an entire community. Patrick and I discuss both. It's nice to take a minute to step back after finals and reflect on the goodness of the friendships you have made in college. I pray you do the same. No episode next week because of Christmas. God bless! twitter.com/bropostle twitter.com/CatholicPat patreon.com/TheCrunch...

We had a ton of responses to #AskTheCrunch, but we could only get to three of them. The good news is that we'll have plenty to talk about in future episodes! Keep tweeting us if you think of something you'd like us to talk about or answer. This episode covers the Old Testament, the Church's stance on exorcisms/demons, and why we HAVE to go to Mass every week. twitter.com/bropostle twit...

Due to popular request, Patrick and I talk about one of our favorite subjects, Mary! Especially pertinent in this advent season. It was very late so we were a bit delusional/emotional. Try to laugh with us, not at us. twitter.com/bropostler twitter.com/CatholicPat patreon.com/TheCrunch Support the show (http://www.patreon.com/thecrunch) Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands Privacy &...

Advent is here! Which means it's time to survive the secular onslaught of December, ignore the rage about Starbucks cups, reflect on the Incarnation, and find enough Christmas joy to spread to everyone you meet. I apologize for my roommates playing Tequila by the Champs while we were recording, hopefully it didn't distract that much. Support the show (http://www.patreon.com/thecrunch) Adve...

Patrick and I have been on tons of retreats. We think that they're super important to grow in faith and build community. We also love to talk about them! Hopefully you can learn something about how to approach different kinds of retreats to maximize your spiritual growth. patreon.com/thecrunch twitter.com/bropostle twitter.com/catholicpat Support the show (http://www.patreon.com/thecrunch) Adv...

CHEWING ON ALL THINGS CATHOLIC. If you ever struggle with knowing God's will in your life, we're right there with you. I share a story about how I learned to trust in Him more, and Patrick gets deep into what it means to prayerfully discern His will for us. https://www.patreon.com/thecrunch twitter.com/bropostle twitter.com/CatholicPat Support the show (http://www.patreon.com/thecrunch) Ad...

CHEWING ON ALL THINGS CATHOLIC. What do those high-falootin' Catholics mean when they say they want a smaller, holier Church? Shouldn't we want a bigger Church? Isn't that why we're here? Patrick and I discuss. Patreon link: https://www.patreon.com/thecrunch Ethan's Twitter: twitter.com/bropostle Patrick's Twitter: twitter.com/CatholicPat Support the show (http://www.patreo...

CHEWING ON ALL THINGS CATHOLIC. We had some pretty lengthy banter at the beginning this time, feel free to skip ahead to the 7 minute mark or so if you so please. Afterwards we get deep into our favorite saints and how our prayer lives have taken on the spirituality of those saints we look up to.

Do you ever notice how negative we are towards school? How much we complain? Is there a reason for it, or is it just natural? Patrick and I dive in to the scholastic world of bragging about how stressed you are. All my homies 300 300.
