And we're live. Welcome to the Loopcast. It's Tom Erica and Josh. The Loopcast is brought to you by the Loop. Every American Catholic's favorite morning newsletter. And I'm delighted already with the chat activity. We have someone from Lithuania checking in. Awesome. And the conversation is ranging right now between NFL franchises, disappointing or exciting people. All Souls Day. And, yeah, good homilies, All Souls Day.

Something about the NFL, because, like, isn't this kind of like this blue?

It's sort of like a Honolulu blue almost, like, for your, for your lions.

But listen, listen, I got, I got nothing.

I was they most definitely. All right. All right, guys, settle down. I got nothing but, look, I got nothing but praise for the Vikings that came into a hostile environment. They clearly played harder than the Lions. Rookie quarterback had a day. Probably the best game. He's played so far. Bright future had of them. You know, must win for the Vikings if I could get in that little jab.

You know, in that position, must win.

You had a chance to put us away for the year. Right, exactly. Look, the line's got to be better. We all know that. The problem is, is we're so hyped up all the time. If you have a buy, it's like we can't let them relax. Like the lines, we grind it out all the time. You need to just keep playing.

We have elections going on.

It's actually election day.

Tomorrow.

Tomorrow. We grind it out all the time. You need to just keep playing. But that's not what we're here to talk about. Okay, we have elections going on.

Speaking of data, I'm seeing some pretty alarming signs of a K-shaped economy. That's kind of a little buzzword going around. And I'm like, okay, is there anything to this? I guess you'll have to wait for that section. Some news on that. Good news, Twilight Zone. And good news coming in from Nigeria. some pretty strong words from Trump and the Department of War of the persecution of Christians going on there.

Shout to Riley. zone and good news coming in from Nigeria, some pretty strong words from Trump and the

Department of War of the persecution of Christians going on there. Shout to Riley Moore, had a good

conversation with the bottom. He's been beating that drum for a while. So we're going to get
