Modernist Fish Episode 1: Why Byzantine?

Episode 1 of the Modernist Fish podcast features inquiry into the relationship between the Roman and Byzantine Rites : Why Tim became Byzantine, the differing strengths and weaknesses of being one or the other, and what each rite has to offer the other.

We're all moderns in a modernist world, swamped and distracted from the truth by secularism, "the deep state", the "deep church" and more. And so, we have to put in extra effort to relearn how to live a fully traditional Christian life again. James Green and Tim Dominik are two such "modernist fish" here to journey with you on this process of relearning. Here, we'll discuss theology, philosophy, free will, Catholic spiritual life, politics, history, and more in conversations sure to be full of hot takes, wild claims, and how to see the world as it really is, which is most definitely not what the world has been telling you it is.

This is the podcast accompaniment to the Grain of Wheat Substack at grainofwheat.substack.com and conversations will often parallel or accompany written pieces from the site, with audio versions of selected articles also to be made available on this podcast feed.

Oh, and also just like our Substack page, everything somehow relates to John 12:24!
