  • Highly recommend!!

    I really enjoy listening to this podcast. I have learned so much about the Catholic faith but with humor and humility. The questions that they delve into are real life questions and really make me feel as if this is a learning process and every day we strive to get better. Thank you Father Dave and the busted halo podcast crew for bringing this to us. I just listened to a podcast on what does faith mean and they went very deep and really hit home. Thank you for being so honest and vulnerable.

    This is for those who want a variety of topics from the ... more
