  • The Catholic Man’s Call to Heroism with Doug Barry

    The Catholic Man’s Call to Heroism with Doug Barry
    Sep 28 2026

    In this episode of Gotta Be Saints, I sit down with Catholic speaker and author Doug Barry to talk about what it means for men to embrace their God-given call to heroism.

    We discuss the challenges facing men today, the temptation toward comfort and passivity, and why authentic masculinity requires sacrifice, discipline, and a willingness to take responsibility. Doug shares why men are called to be the “first line of defense” for their families and how prayer, the sacraments, and devotion to Our Lady prepare us for the spiritual battles we face.

    We also talk about Doug’s new book, First Line of Defense: The Catholic Man’s Call to Heroism, co-written with Daniel O’Connor, and the practical ways men can grow spiritually, mentally, emotionally, and physically.

  • Why Honest Conversations Lead Us to Holiness with Rob Kaczmark

    Why Honest Conversations Lead Us to Holiness with Rob Kaczmark
    Sep 10 2026
    Send us Fan MailWhy do honest conversations matter? And can sharing our struggles actually help lead one another toward holiness?In this episode of the Gotta Be Saints Podcast, I sit down with Rob Kaczmark, founder of Spirit Juice Studios and host of the new podcast Flicker & Burn.Rob has spent nearly two decades using film and media to share the Catholic faith, but this conversation goes well beyond his latest project. We talk about why people need meaningful conversations, the danger of pretending everything is okay, and the role that suffering, friendship, vulnerability, and storytelling can play in bringing us closer to Christ.Rob also shares how some of the most honest conversations of his life have happened in an unexpected place: the tattoo chair. Those experiences helped inspire Flicker & Burn, a show built around real conversations with people from very different backgrounds about suffering, hope, conversion, loss, and what ultimately sustains us.We also talk about why suffering can open the door to deeper relationships, what Father Stu teaches us about carrying our crosses, why Catholics need to take digital evangelization seriously, and how God patiently works on each of us, even when our path to Him isn't clean or straightforward.A podcast can never replace authentic friendship or Christian community. But a good conversation can remind someone that they aren't alone, challenge the way they see their circumstances, and perhaps even help them take another step toward Christ.In this episode:• Why honest conversations are essential to the Christian life• Rob's story and the mission behind Spirit Juice• The unexpected conversations that inspired Flicker & Burn• Why Rob intentionally talks with people from different backgrounds and levels of faith• Isolation, friendship, and our need to be known by others• Why we shouldn't pretend everything is okay when it isn't• What suffering has taught Rob personally• How suffering can allow us to accompany others more deeply• Father Stu and the Christian understanding of suffering• Why everyone's journey toward God looks different• The future of Catholic media and evangelization on YouTube• Rob's favorite tattoo and how it has opened conversations about JesusResources mentioned:Flicker & BurnListen to Rob's new podcast and find episodes on YouTube, Spotify, and Apple Podcasts:https://www.spiritjuice.org/flickerandburn/Spirit JuiceLearn more about Spirit Juice Entertainment Group and its Catholic media projects:https://www.spiritjuice.org/Support Flicker & Burn / Spirit Juice EntertainmentFlicker & Burn and Spirit Juice's other original Catholic content are made available for free through the support of donors:https://www.spiritjuice.org/flickerandburn/Juice BoxSpirit Juice's Catholic YouTube content for children and families:https://www.spiritjuice.org/donate/juicebox/About Flicker & BurnHosted by Rob Kaczmark, Flicker & Burn explores the everyday struggle between life and faith through long-form conversations about doubt, hope, loss, redemption, conversion, suffering, and the search for meaning.As Rob explains in our conversation, the guests don't all have the same story or even the same relationship with faith. That's part of the point. Whether someone's conversion happens dramatically or unfolds slowly over years, God continues working.If you're looking for conversations that are real, raw, hopeful, and willing to wrestle with life's harder questions, give Flicker & Burn a listen.TruthlyGotta Be Saints is proud to partner with Truthly, a Catholic AI app designed to provide answers grounded in Scripture, the Catechism, and the teachings of the Church.

  • Heaven in Stone and Glass with Branden Stanley

    Heaven in Stone and Glass with Branden Stanley
    Aug 18 2026

    Send us Fan Mail

    What can the great Gothic cathedrals teach us about God, beauty, evangelization, and our own call to holiness?

    In this episode of Gotta Be Saints, I sit down with Branden Stanley of Spirit Juice Studios, co-director of Bishop Robert Barron’s new documentary, Heaven in Stone and Glass. Rather than simply talking about how the film was made, we dive into the deeper ideas behind it: why beauty has the power to stop us in our tracks, how sacred architecture can draw people toward God, and why the Church should never underestimate beauty as a means of evangelization.

    Branden shares his experience filming some of France’s greatest Gothic cathedrals, what these buildings communicate about God, and why beauty, alongside truth and goodness, remains essential to the Church’s mission. We also discuss what ordinary Catholics can learn from the people who built these cathedrals and how each of us can create something beautiful with our own lives that points others toward Christ.

    Heaven in Stone and Glass

    Bishop Robert Barron’s Heaven in Stone and Glass takes viewers on a cinematic pilgrimage through five of France’s great Gothic cathedrals and explores the spiritual and theological truths expressed through their architecture.

    The film will be in theaters nationwide on September 20 and 23, 2026.
