I recently received word that my high school football coach was celebrating his 100th birthday. I thought he was old when I played for him over 40 years ago! Now I know he was my age NOW . . . way back then. Coach Cullivan features prominently in this old podcast. Even if you’ve heard it, in honor of him beginning his 101st year, give it a listen.

A Big Shout Out to Silence!

Looking back: first, ten years; then, past Mary Poppins; all the way to Arius—even to a dinosaur—Fr. Joseph sings a couple Orthodox ditties, recounts a heretical tune, and concludes with possibly worse! 

Nick Knock, Poppycock, Heretic Be Gone!
