    Dan Mullins -The Camino podcast

    Dan Mullins has a beautiful voice and a warm, engaging presence. He clearly enjoys talking to his guests, and that energy is a real strength of the podcast. He’s a delightful interviewer, and it’s obvious that he puts care into every episode.

    That said, as someone who has walked the Camino twice — starting in León, Spain, and covering around 160 miles — I feel that a very important part of the Camino is often missing from the podcast: the religious and spiritual ... more

  • “Spiritual but Not Religious”

    The host is pleasant and likable. This show is not so much practical but delves into pilgrim motivations and stories.

    In almost every episode, the guest is asked, “Are you spiritual?” And like clockwork, the guest responds, “I’m spiritual but not religious.” Or often, “I was raised Catholic but no longer practicing.”

    This call-response is so frequent as to become a show cliche. One guest even seemed to disrespect St. James.

    At least once I’d like to hear, “Yes, I am a practicing Catholic wh... more
