Summary
The podcast kicks off with some Christian bros stopping by the Rulli house - despite the "no solicitation" sign. After that, Lino gets a chance to talk Nero and Roman Martyrs (always a favorite). Then, everyone loves the Doubting Thomas, right? And the podcast wraps up with Lino describing the Mexican restaurant where you never know what you'll get!

| 0:58.5 | It is the Catholic Guy Show. |
| 1:00.7 | And, you know, for years I used to live in New York City and I worked at our Sirius XM headquarters. |
| 1:04.9 | And for the last almost five years now, my wife Jill and I have lived in in rural minnesota which means well there are a lot of |
| 1:13.1 | days where i don't even leave the house i just i sit here and i get to work all morning but because we |
| 1:18.8 | the advantage is because i get to work from home i get to play with our daughter a lot more i get to |
| 1:23.8 | spend time with family so it's good good. And then strange things happen. |
| 1:28.4 | So, strange things. About one in the afternoon today, Claire's taking her nap, and we get a ring |
| 1:34.3 | at the doorbell. And we kind of live in rural Minnesota, meaning that, you know, what is it, a cow? |
| 1:41.1 | Like, who's stopping by the house? Like, I mean, we have neighbors, but neighbors don't really stop by, so you kind of wonder, oh, is it that damn coyote stopping by for some meat or beef turkey or something? You're not exactly sure. It's a cow who's also a Jehovah's Witness, so he's going door to door. Yes, he wants to tell me about, he's going to witness to Jehovah for me. I say, good. I'm in the mood for a rump steak, actually. So I think maybe there's a little something for both of us in this case. And so I, Jill and I both have that ring doorbell app on our phone. So as soon as the door will, I mean, let's be honest, I never answered the door no matter what because what's going to happen? What good comes from answering the door? Somebody's going to hand me money? You know, nothing good has ever happened when you answer the door. Think about it. What are they going to deliver you a summons and a subpoena? Like nothing good, Is somebody going to hug me? Nothing good comes from opening the damn door. Let's be honest. And even then, I don't think I would want the hug from a complete stranger. Well, I would. I'm lonely. You're way too judgmental. You're way too judgmental about your hugs, Tyler. It's one of your many |
| 2:51.1 | faults that I've commented on before. That's fair. I agree with you, though. 99 times out of |
| 2:55.8 | 100, there's only bad news if you open the door. What possible good comes from opening the door? |
| 3:03.3 | Think about it. And now, again, unless it's FedEx or UPS and they need a signature and then somebody's |
| 3:08.8 | handing you cash or something in an envelope. |
| 3:10.7 | But otherwise, usually nothing great's going to happen. |
