Death is a reality we all have to confront.
Often, it can be a very hard and ugly thing.
Naturally, we all have an apprehension to it since we are made for life. We defend this reality by promoting the procreation of children, by promoting things like marriage, by promoting traffic laws and speed limits, by promoting medicine, and the sorts.
But, what happens when we simply reject it? What happens when we become insensitive to the fact of death? Does our culture allow for us to consider it?

Are all religious made equal? Is being a good person enough to go to heaven? Did Jesus Christ die for all or a select few? Why be religious?
The central question we seek to answer is: is there salvation outside of the Church? What does the Church say about this topic?
Here is our take on it.

We are all fractured, in some way. Sometimes its our own fault, other times it is not, but we all lack interior integration. On top of this, many have resorted to pornography to compensate and help them cope with an already growing disintegration. How do we get out of this hole? Is brute force the way?
On this episode, Dr. Malinoski, a clinical psychologist, contributor to FOCUS, hosted on the Chris Stefanick Catholic Show, and co-founder of Interior Integration, helps lay out a proper anthropological vision of who man is and who he is called to be. In doing so, he gives us a pathway to understand our need for interior integration and how to move towards it.

Rick Rubin and Cole Bennett, two cultural giants of our time.
Rick Rubin has helped produce music for artists like: Run DMC, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Aerosmith, Johnny Cash, LL Cool J, Jay-Z, Kanye West, Adele, Kesha, Lady Gaga, and the Avett Brothers. His experience takes him beyond classic music production genres. Beyond this, he wrote a book that became an instant hit and lead him to go on Joe Rogan to promote it and dissect it, namely "The Creative Act."
Similarly, Cole Bennett has helped artists like: Lil Pump, Mask the Slump God, Lil Xan, Juice World, J. Cole, Eminem, Kanye West, Wiz Khalifa, Jack Harlow, and Dr. Dre.
Why the lists? Well, this shows you the scope of their cultural influence. Both Rick, as a music producer, and Cole, as a music video producer, have helped infuse our world with a particular vision of reality and value structure. The question for us is: is the Logos present in what they have to say? We argue, yes. Not only that, we find it an obligation to find where Jesus Christ is in their conversation and bring Him out.
Here are our insights about this conversation!

Why are humans so bad at navigating the relationship between work and leisure?
We all want that relation to be integrated and ordered. In fact, we all know that our recreation should infuse our work and vise versa. Yet, we are either attached to our work or deem it a mere drudgery. Why? Is there a way back to a more whole, integrated living?
In this episode, we deal with these and more questions with Matt Hylom.Support the show

In this comeback episode, we digest one of Pope Francis' recent letter on the importance, the necessity, even, of literature.
Reading is for nerds, right? Yes...but also for non-nerds. We all need to foster an attitude of contemplation that literature develops within us.

In today's academia, we feel the need to teach people to be productive, efficient, and professional people rather than holy, virtuous, and noble people.
In this episode, Dcn. Joey gives a talk to a group of teachers on the necessity of truth in education. What is truth? Is it worth being a person of princples and conviction? Is Physics more important than answering questions of the heart? Tune in to find out answers to these and more questions.

In this episode, we dive into Max's thesis. What is truth? Better asked, who is truth? According to Joseph Ratzinger, Max argues, Truth is a person and that person extends Himself to man as something reasonable and relational.

In this episode, we approach another cultural piece going back to 2013 with titled Super Rich Kids from Frank Ocean’s Channel Orange Album.
Yes, it is now over 10 years old, but this song continues to ring in people’s ears and hearts. Or, at the very least, Dcn. Max’s.
Why?
Well, we give an analysis of the song and draw out its major philosophical and theological themes to bring you closer to the Person who is truth…the Logos, Jesus Christ.
You let us know if it rings true.

In this episode, we discuss about being pure in heart.
It is something we all need to grow in, but it is especially timely given our secular cultural’s celebrations of “Pride month” as opposed to the Church’s celebration of The Sacred Heart of Jesus Christ.
Then, we tell the story of St. Charles Lwanga and Companions as they died at the hands of a king whose sexual tendencies they never submitted to in the name of Jesus Christ.Support the show

In this episode, Logos Podcast dives in the virtue of humility as opposed to its vice of pride.
In the spiritual life, pride is the venomous serpent ready to strike. In fact, we often hear Saint warn us against pride and its destructive nature. Indeed, it seems to be engrained in our every action as human beings. Why do we continue to feed it, this ego of ours, even when it’s clearly hurting us?
Better yet, how do we combat it? With nothing else other than good Ol’fashion humility.

In this episode, we discuss the nature of Trinitarian love and man's participation in it. To do so, we draw on St. Augustine of Hippo, CS Lewis, and Pope St. John Paul II to help us enter this conversation.
Unlike most other weeks, however, this episode is special since it was requested of us by a Catholic parish in the Westside, in California. As it turns out, Cali has not only had Snoop Dogg's presence in its midst but, now, Logos Podcast.
We hope you enjoy listening to this conversation as much as we enjoyed giving it.

This is not Hozier's "Take me to church", but it is another one of his recent hits titled: Too Sweet. This song is catchy, poetic, and, admittedly, intense.
The protagonist in the story of this song expresses a tension he finds in himself brought about by his lifestyle and the lifestyle and persona of his beloved.

In this episode, Logos discusses the nature of The Christian Church and its relationship to the world. It describes the Church’s salvific truths as well as affirms the need for the Church, if it is to fulfill Christ's command to teach the nations, to enter and recognize the world as something fundamentally good.
Is the world evil? Does the world have anything to offer The Church?
Maybe, the best way for The Church to avoid confusion, sin, and struggle is for Her to fall into Herself and build a society that only includes Her members?
Yet, Jesus Christ challenges and obliges the Church to teach all of the nations…so…

In this episode, we dive into the need for the liturgy and rituals. St. Paul talks about humanity needing to enter into "logical worship"...what is he talking about?
Wait, isn't the Catholic Church just a cult? Those vestments, those middle aged men called "priests", the kneeling and standing, the funky smelling smoke, the weird repetitive prayers all smack of a weird cult; therefore, its pointless.
But, is that so? Why do worship God in this way? Isn't the importance of the Christian life to "have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ?"
Well...let's talk about that...
