Welcome to the Eric Mataxis show. It's the show about everything. And we do mean everything.

Yes, even that. Yep. In that too. Oh, you bet. Definitely that. Now here's everything you want in a host. Eric

Mataxis. Isn't that sweet? See, talk of be sweet.

Yeah, Alben. He can be sweet. I hope people didn't miss hour one today with the Alliance defending freedom.

No, I cannot. The story of fire chief Kelvin Cochran. It is mind. I know it's beyond the pay. No, it is. Yeah.

It is mind blowing. You can go to the 80F website at MataxisTalk.com. Yeah.

In this hour, we're going to continue our conversation with Tyler Blansky. He's written a book called Immovable Feast. Amazing young writer, Christian.

And he and I share something that is very close to our hearts, which is a love for Thomas Howard and his book Chance or the Dance.

Oh, okay. I thought you shared a shard or something. No, no, no, no. No, I gave him that shirt.

But Chance or the Dance is one of the greatest books I have ever read. And I wrote a new forward to Chance or the Dance.

People know this. I've talked about this in the past, but it's such a great book. And I wrote a new forward to it.

And there is a, what do they call it? It's not a forward. It's like an epilogue or something by Tyler Blansky.

Okay.

And so in this hour, I'll be talking to him in a couple of minutes, a second part of my conversation with Tyler.

A few things I want to say before we go to Tyler. First of all, will this pope be forced to resign? That is a real question.

I am not going to answer that question right now. But in the coming days and weeks, I'm going to be talking to folks like John's Mirac and John Gervino and lots of others because this is.

This is an entirely new thing that we could be talking about something like this. And in the modern era, whether a pope might be forced to resign, but what is going on right now.

And I've been putting a lot of this on Twitter and I and on Facebook, because I think it's important. And speaking of Facebook, I want to mention that because some of these social media platforms are discriminating against conservative voice,

or Christian voices, I want to say to my listeners, I would love you to go to my website, which is ericmataxis.com, because sometimes I try to get messages out.

And I feel like Facebook, either they squelch it or I, you know, who knows why they do this, but they do it. I've noticed it with a couple of posts I put out there.

I think that it's getting zero traction. Everything else I do gets traction. And the only way I can get a message out is through my email list. So if you're not on my email list, go to ericmataxis.com. And you'll see it there. Get eric's latest thoughts. But it's the only, this sounds kind of pathetic, but it's like it's the only way I can communicate.

If I need to get a message out, because right now, you know, I mean, we have seen this where people are shut down on Twitter. They're shut down on Facebook. And then they have to go through this process. And you just think, this is great. We're living in really, really crazy times. But if you want to be sure that you're hearing from me, just go to ericmataxis.com and sign up for my email weekly email. Now, part of the reason I'm saying this is because one of the messages I'm saying is,
