    Our buddy Jon refused to become a Patreon supporter until we got Van Vickle back on the show to talk ghosts, hauntings, and exorcism stories. BUT FIRST!

Then ghost stories, kids!

    This is what happens when one guy had 3 hours of sleep and the other guy is 3 beers in before the conversation starts.

    catholic, contentment, family, grace, happiness

    I love the Stewart story! Conversion to Catholicism, dead-end unhappy life, a return to the land and farming, and pooping in a bucket, to discovering the grace of enough. Rest assured, her personal commitment to Christ will make you happy you suffered through Luke and me till the bitter end. She's amazing.
