Episodes

Attraction 11.01.2026

Attraction is not about tricks, aesthetics, or pretending to be someone you are not. It is about becoming the kind of man a woman can rest her heart against. In this episode, we talk honestly about what makes Catholic men genuinely attractive to their significant other. Not in a performative or shallow way, but in a way that is rooted in truth, virtue, and masculine clarity. We explore why strengt...

From Martín's Self-Doubt to the Best Shape of His Life 09.01.2026

When Martín and I first spoke, he wasn’t lacking desire. He was lacking belief. He wanted to change, but he carried a lot of self doubt. Doubt shaped by old habits, inconsistency, and the quiet fear that maybe this time wouldn’t be different. In this testimonial, Martín shares what unfolded over the course of six months. Not only how he reached the best physical shape of his life, but how his fait...

Humbled 04.01.2026

This episode is a real one. This Christmas and New Year’s weren’t filled with the joy and peace I expected. Instead, I walked straight into family tension, conflict, and situations that forced me to look hard at myself. No hiding. No spiritual bypassing. Just humility. I talk about how family feuds have a way of exposing pride, wounds, old habits, and the parts of us that still need conversion. Th...

New Year Gameplan 21.12.2025

New year, new orders. In this episode I lay out the full game plan for the year ahead. No hype, no fluff. Just a clear path forward. I break down the nutrition plan to get your body under control, the training plan to build strength and discipline, and the spiritual battle plan to actually walk with God instead of talking about it. If you’re tired of drifting, repeating the same year, and calling...

Food Drug 14.12.2025

Before anything else, it was binging. Using food to cope, numb out, reward myself, and avoid dealing with what was actually going on. In this episode, I talk about my messed-up relationship with food, how binging showed up early in my life, and how that lack of discipline didn’t stay isolated. It spilled into everything. If you’ve ever said “I’ll start Monday,” “I deserve this,” or “it’s just food...

Lead The Way 07.12.2025

Most men think they’re leading, but a lot of the time they’re actually just controlling, reacting, or drifting through life. In this episode I break down what real leadership looks like for a Catholic man. Not the soft modern version. The real thing. The kind of leadership God expects from a man who wants to build a holy home and actually protect the people he loves. I talk about how easy it is fo...

Cheaters 30.11.2025

Bro… this one’s heavy, but it needs to be said. Too many men out here are destroying their marriages, their families, and their souls because they refuse to confront the truth: cheating doesn’t happen out of nowhere — it starts in the heart long before it ever shows up in your actions. In this episode, I’m breaking down the real reason men cheat, why lust becomes a cycle you can’t outrun, and how...

How Tony Got Shredded, Disciplined, MORE Catholic And Found Real Brotherhood 26.11.2025

Tony was not out of shape when he found Catholic Warrior. He was already lifting and taking care of himself but he knew he was not living with the discipline and intention God was actually calling him to. He was starting a new sales job in a very secular environment and he could feel how easy it would be to get swept up in quotas greed and viewing people as numbers instead of souls. In this episod...

Advent Maxing 23.11.2025

Bro, I’m just gonna be real with you. Most Catholics have no idea what Advent actually is. We grow up hearing the word, seeing the wreath, lighting the candles, but no one ever tells us what the season is supposed to do to our soul. And honestly, that ignorance is killing a lot of people spiritually. share the stuff I wish someone told me years ago. Why Advent used to be a mini Lent, why the Churc...

Freemasons 16.11.2025

Most people think of Freemasonry as a harmless fraternity… but the Church has condemned it for centuries. Popes, saints, and exorcists have warned that Masonic oaths, rituals, and symbolism directly oppose the Kingship of Christ. Many families today carry wounds, oppression, or patterns of sin without realizing the spiritual roots go back generations. Today we talk about:     •    Why the Church h...

Family Matters 09.11.2025

In this episode, I open up on one of the hardest parts of my faith journey that nobody really warns you about — how converting to Catholicism reshapes your relationships, especially with the people you love most. The last six years have been anything but smooth. When you give your life to Christ and commit to the fullness of the Catholic faith, not everyone understands it… and some don’t accept it...

The First Annual Catholic Warrior Brotherhood Retreat 04.11.2025

In this episode, I’m breaking down the Catholic Warrior Brotherhood Retreat — what we did, why we did it, and the real transformation that took place out there in the mountains. This wasn’t a “men’s getaway” or a feel-good campfire weekend. This was battle preparation. Iron sharpening iron. Men confronting their addictions, their passivity, their wounds, and stepping into the identity God actually...

Urraca Killers 19.10.2025

This episode is an encapsulated timeless piece for my Dad, detailing our hunt so that we never forget the memories we made during my first hunt. He specifically asked that I make this so we can have it forever.

Disney and Elk Hunting 09.10.2025

In this episode of The Catholic Warrior Podcast, Isaac shares stories from his family trip through California — from the magic and chaos of Disneyland with the kids, to visiting his wife’s family and reflecting on the beauty of family life amidst the busyness. Then, the episode turns toward the mountains — as Isaac gears up for his upcoming elk hunt. He talks about preparation, discipline, and how...

God's Punishment 16.09.2025

In this episode, we dive into one of the most sobering realities of our time: the escalating spiritual warfare tearing at the soul of America. From the shocking calls for the death of Charlie Kirk, to the growing signs of God’s chastisement upon our nation, we confront the uncomfortable truth that the battle is not just cultural or political—it is spiritual. I break down what Scripture, the saints...

The Secret Struggle 07.09.2025

In this episode of The Catholic Warrior Podcast , we go straight into the trenches of one of the greatest battles Catholic men face today: pornography. This isn’t just a casual struggle—it’s a war that destroys discipline, weakens virtue, and robs men of their spiritual strength. I break down tactical strategies to fight back—step by step, habit by habit—so you can reclaim mastery over your mind,...

O Death Where is Your Sting 02.09.2025

In this episode of The Catholic Warrior Podcast , I speak from the heart about the recent tragic church shooting in Minneapolis. Moments like these shake us to our core, but they also reveal a deeper truth: the world desperately needs Catholic men who are willing to rise up, defend the faith, and lead with courage. I break down why complacency is no longer an option, how we must fight for our fami...

Wifey 24.08.2025

Marriage isn’t just about the wedding day—it’s about the years that come after. In this episode, I open up about what it really means to keep dating your wife long after you’ve said “I do.” Too many men forget that the pursuit doesn’t stop at the altar—it just changes. I share personal reflections from my own marriage after 4 years—what I’ve learned, where I’ve failed, and how I’m still growing as...

FUD 17.08.2025

In this episode of The Catholic Warrior Podcast, we dive into one of the greatest battles every man faces—fear, uncertainty, and doubt. These invisible enemies creep into our minds, weaken our resolve, and tempt us to shrink back from the mission God has entrusted to us. I’ll share how these struggles show up in our spiritual life, training, and daily responsibilities, and why they can either brea...

Be Yourself 11.08.2025

For years, I lived for everyone else’s approval. I said the right things, played the part, and tried to fit into whatever box people put me in. But deep down, I was miserable — because I wasn’t living as the man God made me to be. In this episode, I share the turning point that broke me out of that cycle and taught me what it really means to be yourself… even when it’s not what the world wants fro...
