On this very special Christmas episode of the Catholic Talk Show, the guys talk about the origins of Christmas traditions like stockings and trees, ask if Jesus was actually born on December 25th, and the crazy story of how the REAL Saint Nick busted a serial killer!

Thought I had caught up on all the shows. This one is a treasure. Don't know if I will be here in 2035, but I would love to see you Celebrate the Mass.

🤣😭🤣
The government's criticisms echo those of some survivors and concern Francis' omission of any reference to the sexual abuse suffered by Indigenous children in the schools, as well as his original reluctance to name the Catholic Church as an institution bearing responsibility.Jul 28, 2022

Great show guys! Currently going on a marathon of all your content 😁
Fantastic show!!! A great example of humor, history lessons and practical spiritual advise. U guys are salt of the earth and thank you for that.
You also need to see the video done by Dr. Taylor Marshall on the Dec 25th birth of Jesus. Loads of excellent info.
More like the pagen origins of the Roman catholic church

I love the butcher story. Everyone has the same reaction about it whenever I tell it. They always kind of just lower their head and agree as if they find it to be so outlandish they just won't argue it. Awesome followthrough on St. Nick. A lot of great thought was put into this episode and I really enjoyed it. Merry Christmas guys.
Great show! Thank you all!
I'm only 1 minute into this podcast and I already want Fr. Rich to give a "Christmas in Hollis" inspired Homily!
So the St. Martin Feast was Martin Gras.
Wow X is not a contemporary secular inventions.
The dance wasn't "pink" as all get out, but "rose" haha!!!!!!!!!!
More saints , church history, some medieval catholic practices
Love the show
