Throughout their years of marriage, Beth Schrader's husband has struggled with depression, anxiety and ADHD.

In this first episode of Watch a Movie with Mac and Greg we take on the 2018 stinker "The Hurricane Heist," a PG-13 film available on Netflix.

In this inaugural episode of More Than Mental we set the groundwork for why its important to focus not just on mental issues, but multiple areas of our lives that concurrently help us live happier lives.

Too Old for Tequila? We recently attended a dinner for couples from our local parish and were surprised when someone at the table bought a round of tequila shots, which brought forth the question of whether we're too old to do shots, and also reminded Greg of a time when he drank a few too many. Head Over Heels A recent exploratory trip to go "tubing" down a river ended up with Greg being dunked i...

Discerning Focus Does creating content just for the online "Catholic Bubble" prevent us from actually evangelizing those who need to be evangelized? As we continue to evaluate what content to create and how to create it (i.e., with what focus and emphasis should we use), we find ourselves questioning whether our content is too Catholic or not Catholic enough. Of Thomas and Catherine Our discernmen...

Web Design Headaches Greg ponders why it was once so easy to make websites twenty years ago and why it seems to take him forever to make one today. Is it age, boredom, or the technology? Exercise Feedback We heard from listeners who encouraged our exercise goals based on their own experiences as both someone trying to avoid "the frail trail" as well as a physical therapist. Links mentioned: Choosi...

In Search of Peaches After the kids bailed on Jennifer, she ventures out on her own in search of the elusive perfect Georgia peach. CrossFit Debacle In our ongoing quest for health and fitness, we check out a local CrossFit facility. It did not go as planned.

Fear of Happiness We return from a long needed family vacation and discuss the need for rest, and how to overcome the fear that often keeps us from seeking happiness in life. This also includes a discussion about not only being wise stewards of the gifts God gives us, but also being willing to actually enjoy the gifts when they're given. Of Mantas, Sharks, and Dolphins Our trip to the beach was su...

Incredible Response Huge thanks for the INCREDIBLE positive response we continue to receive since switching our Patreon account over to monthly instead of per-creation. The consensus seems to agree with what Jan, one of our co-producers, wrote when she said, "I think monthly was a great idea and will do just what you said. Y'all will be freed up to do a greater variety of things...I'd rather suppo...

Proper Dress for Podcasting We're podcasting earlier in the morning after a couple failed attempts at recording the show and Jennifer is surprised how dapper Greg looks (or as dapper as Greg gets when it's warm outside.

We talk about why we're trying to move, the flurry of recent activity around our Rosary Army non-profit, and how three days of silence, combined with finishing the book, "The Big Leap" by Gay Hendricks, is leading Greg down a new pathway of discovery into his zone of genius.

We give an update on Walter's whereabouts and doings. We finally had a chance for a romantic date night and Jennifer literally tried to take the shirt off the waiter's back. Next, we talk about the delicate balance of work and life, and knowing when to take a break. Which leads to Jennifer kicking Greg out of the house for a few days, and a pointless game all about October.

In this week's episode: Mac Barron wrote a new book called, "Clueless in Galilee." After recent discussions on the show about fasting and almsgiving being the two wings of prayer, we discuss why parishes should do away with the annual stewardship clarion call of Time, Talent, and Treasure and replace it with something more useful, practical, and real. And lastly, Walter joins us one last time to p...

We start off talking about the significance of 244 episodes and how the last time we met this milestone, it was the end of an important era for us. We then discuss the weirdness of being sandwiched between raising our own children, and having to care for an elderly parent. And lastly, in celebration of our 23rd Wedding Anniversary, and in light of our recent revelations about needing more fun in o...

We discuss the mysterious way that grace builds upon grace, allowing us to more actively participate in deeper spiritual activities such as fasting, daily Mass, and praying the Rosary. And after several weeks on a new supplement regimen, Greg shares not only the state of his health after this year's battles, but also more insight to the benefit of confronting those who have directly hurt us, and t...
