Summary

Timothy welcomes Brother Richard back to the show for a discussion about relics. We discuss the types of relics; relics in different religious traditions; the provenance of relics; relics which disappear and reappear like apports; relic copies; the revelation of relics; and much more. Brother Richard also shares some wonderful personal stories of his own experiences with relics.

And how are you this fine evening, Allison?

1:07.7

I'm well. Allison's laughing because someone asked her what she does in the podcast and she said,

Tim asked me how I'm doing and I say I'm doing well.

1:17.6

2:06.9

Richard relates that, you know, even though they're within the realm of talking about relics,
