Luke and Gomer became friends Freshman year at the Franciscan University of Steubenville and 14 years later they started a podcast. The show oscillates between a conversation between just the two of us and interviews that we do together of other, fancier people. Sometimes we get explicit either by being too honest or by being too stupid. Either way, it's fun!

Episode 8: Authentically Honest about Pornography 06.08.2015 1:06:44

SHOW NOTES This episode is a heartbreaker. We share as honestly as possible what went wrong in our lives when it came to human sexuality: A.K.A. Pornography . Porn is in our face and easily reachable by our broadband, HD technicolor Internet connections. We talk about this subject in a very humble and even humiliating way, trying not to dodge the issue. Also, this conversation gives Luke yet anoth...

Episode 7: Interview with Arleen the Virgin 21.07.2015 1:37:36

Our first interview show ever! With a real guest and not Luke pretending to be a Marvel character! Ahem. Tonight we interview Arleen Spenceley , journalist and author of the recently published book, " Chastity is for Lovers " from Ave Maria Press. She has to deal with a lot in this episode from us, so you should buy her book as our way of saying "Sorry." Special Guest: Arleen Spenceley.

Episode 6: Perpetual What Now? 30.06.2015 1:02:49

SHOW NOTES Gomer and Luke discuss fun things like the crushing reality of perpetual adolescence for both Gen-Xers and Millennials, and then, without a single hint of irony, complain that Beyonce should not be an Avenger. We are the exceptions that prove the rule, folks. Just keep in mind when you listen to this podcast, it was recorded at 5:22 AM my time, 6:22 for Luke last-name-redacted. We thoug...

Episode 5: Big Events for the Kidz 06.06.2015 1:16:43

Gomer and He-Who-Shall-No-Be-Last-Named talk about BIG EVENTS and its relationship to youth ministry. We get serious for a bit and dig deep on high school ministry, evangelism and catechesis. Also, we repeatedly try out our Bane impressions from The Dark Knight Rises , which degrades quickly into a bad Sean Connery. Oh yeah. And at one point Luke actually called Rocky Road ice cream "pop ice cream...

Episode 4: Luke Authentically, Genuinely Loves Star Wars Trailers 01.06.2015 6:55

Hey kids! Have you ever heard a grown man emote over a movie trailer that it makes you kind of uncomfortable? Well, you're gonna! Here's Luke attempting to explain the rawness of his emotions the day the second Star Wars, The Force Awakens trailer was released. It's crazy.

Episode 3: I Watch Mad Men for the Suits 23.04.2015 1:04:44

SHOW NOTES In this episode we talk movies and TV shows that edge on the "too" side of the Catholic moral equation: too much violence and too much sex. We discuss why some bad movies are actually good and some good movies are bad. Case in point, those terrible family-friendly Christian movies. Sure, they are good in moral content, but they are bad in artistic value, which may mean it's just plain b...

Episode 2: My Poofy Hair 21.04.2015 48:10

SHOW NOTES Luke talks about why he didn't have girlfriends in middle school. Gomer challenges him on that, but ultimately agrees. Then we dive into something rather important. In San Francisco the Archbishop tries to get teachers listed as "ministers" and to get them to sign a statement of belief that clearly defines hot button issues ( cough gay marriage cough ) and requires one's full assent as...

Episode 1: Create, Don't Just Consume 21.04.2015 42:55

This is the kick-off episode of my new podcast show, "Catching Foxes" with my pal Luke. We will talk about culture and it's impact on young adults living their faith. In this first episode, we basically introduce the show, each other, and do our first rant. At one point I slipped away to the bathroom, in which Luke decided to ask me a question. Whoops!
