It's an absolute pleasure to be here with you guys. So as I mentioned in the first hour, we have a special guest for this first segment. We're talking to Matthew Lavagna. He's actually, the reason he's here is because he came to the Catholic Answers Conference this past weekend. Matthew, welcome to the show. Thank you for having me. Yeah, it's good. It's great for you to have you here in the studio. Now, you're coming all the way from France. Exactly. That's, I don't know, side, does he get a reward for this? I'm not sure, but he should get a reward from coming all the way from Europe to visit us for the conference. So just to kind of kick things off. So you're an apologist. Yes, I'm the only

2:05.9

arguments in favor of the faith. And so I started working

2:19.6
