Father Vincent Lampert, lovely to have you here. It's good to be with you. I was going down the elevator to

0:04.9

get you to bring you up to my office and I was looking on YouTube. I'm like, what's he been on? You were on Vice. You're on the History Channel. I thought it was a current affair, but I guess it wasn't. What else have you been on? I've been on so many things. I can't even remember all of them. You are on the covert Catholic apologetics channel capturing Christianity as well.

0:05.8

So that's... so many things. I can't even remember all of them. You were on the covert Catholic apologetics

0:21.5

channel capturing Christianity as well. So that's cool. That's a joke, of course. But you're with

0:26.6

Cameron Batuzzi, good friend of mine. Yeah. So there's obviously a lot of interest in the kind of work

0:30.8

you do. There is, and the fact that I'm happy to be public about it. Because there are many

0:35.8

exorcists that prefer to remain anonymous

0:38.3

but I've always thought that if the church doesn't talk about it then how do people know where

0:43.7

to turn to get the true help that they need is it strange for you when people like I was

0:48.9

looking at the vice video and they've got all this kind of haunted music and people flailing

0:53.1

on the ground it's all very dramatic.

0:54.9

And it seems like they interviewed you in a dark room.

0:57.9

And I'm sure they set all that up.

1:00.7

Do you feel like they're kind of not mocking it, but kind of making light of it in trying to kind of get clicks?

1:07.9

Does that make sense?

1:09.1

Yeah, I think they take and put their own twist on it. But I've always been very open to

1:14.3

talking to many different outlets, you know, even one that some people might consider

1:18.9

to be a little suspect or maybe mocking what the church believes and teaches. But again,

1:24.0

I think it's always important just to meet people where they're at, present the

1:27.7

information of the church, and what people do with that ultimately is up to them. When were you

1:32.2

ordained a priest? June the 1st of 1991. So this is my 30th anniversary coming up. Congratulations.

1:39.4

Yeah, it's hard to believe. At diocese and priest? I was ordained for the Archdiocese of Indianapolis.
