Hi, I'm Scott Hunt, and I want to welcome you to the Road to Amas, our podcast here at the St. Paul Center.

And it is my privilege to introduce my special guest today, and that is

Jeremiah Bannister, who has had a wild journey spiritually and in theological terms as well. So

welcome, Jeremiah. Thank you very much. It's an honor. Not only have you had a journey, but it has

also led you

to move your family to Stubmanville, Ohio last year in 2025. Now, I just want to introduce you a little

bit because some people know you as the paleocrat. That's true. Years ago, you were also involved

in the distributist review. Yes, it was. Yes. And so you have a spiritual journey,

the likes of which I have seldom read or heard about. And it's characterized what I would say,

I would describe as personal enthusiasm, I mean personal passion, but also intellectual zeal

and a willingness to follow the truth just about

anywhere. But you also have a special ingredient in the recipe, and that is a family dynamic,

especially with your daughter, Samantha, Princess Sammy, who died when she was, what, 11 or 12.

12 years old, yeah.

The brain cancer.

Yeah.

But the dramatic journey of faith that you have taken begins way back in terms of Protestantism.

And you were involved in ministry as well.

Yes.

As a pastor.

And perhaps we might even dabble a little bit into your own experimentation with

theonomy and reconstruction because I meet very few Catholic converts who share that in common
