0:00.0	Gide, gooday, gooday, and welcome to Pints with Aquinas. My name is Matt Frad, and it's lovely to be with you.
0:08.4	Today, I want to do three basic things with a lot of fun stuff sprinkled in between.
0:15.2	I want to take a look at what Thomas Aquinas has to say about alcohol. Three things in particular will look at. Whether one can
0:22.2	use alcohol legitimately. Second, whether drunkenness is a sin. And thirdly, whether or not it's a
0:29.1	mortal sin. I then want to take five questions from my amazing patrons, including a question about
0:35.9	Catholic mindfulness and my thoughts on it. And then just
0:39.2	for fun, I want to create the super Catholic apologist. And what I mean by that is, if I could take
0:46.3	attributes of different Catholic apologists and biblical scholars and push them into one amazing package,
0:57.0	what would it look like? So anyway,
1:02.7	should be fun. I've had a great couple of weeks. I was just in South Carolina giving some talks on pornography. It's the first time I've actually really gone on a trip. I spoke at
1:07.8	Francisco University of Steubenville a couple of months ago,
1:16.1	but the first time I've spoken in a high school in like five months, thereabouts, crazy stuff.
1:21.0	But it was amazing. It was really a beautiful time. I just recorded a video about an amazing thing that happened during one of those talks on pornography that I gave. So I won't recap it here,
1:26.2	but feel free to go check that out.
1:27.5	Some exciting things have been happening. We just hit 90,000 subscribers which is pretty
1:34.1	amazing. I'm trying to think about what I'll do once we hit 100,000 subscribers to
1:38.3	celebrate. I've got some ideas. Love to hear your thoughts below in the comments
1:42.3	section. But yeah, pretty excited about that. If you haven't yet subscribed, you might want to think about that. Here's one reason to subscribe.
1:47.5	Next week, we're hosting a debate between Protestant Steve Christie and Catholic apologist, Trent Horn.
1:56.4	And we're going to be debating the Deuterocanonical books. So if you're a Catholic and you're like,
2:01.5	why do we have more books in the Old Testament than Protestants do? Or if you're a Protestant thinking,
2:05.8	why do Catholics have more books? Did they add to the Bible? How should I think about that?
