In this episode, Fr. Sam and Matt set out to discuss Matt's class on the Gospel of John and fail miserably. Instead, they talk about Catholic Heart Workcamp, Uncrustables, sort of the Gospel of John, but mostly Uncrustables again. This episode is mostly about Uncrustables. @ Uncrustables you should sponsor us, we would be the greatest of your business partners by far!

The Church in the United States is in the midst of a Eucharistic Revival, an exciting time for us to grow in our understanding of and devotion to Jesus who gives Himself to us in the Eucharist. Fr. Sam's friend from seminary days just happens to be one of the priests helping to lead this important effort. It's a joy to welcome Fr. Craig Vasek to the Tangent to talk priesthood, Eucharist, conversion, and revival!

Today we're interviewing Jason Trennert, founder of Strategas and author of "My Side of the Street," in which he tells the story of a different side of Wall Street than that normally depicted in the movies and on TV. If that sounds like something a little outside our normal subject matter, you're right! The world of finance, trade, and commerce might not have an immediately evident relationship to Catholicism. But Jason helps us break open the relevance of faith in every area of life, and in every profession.
