A Visit To Iron Spike Model Train Museum

Ever agree to a “quick little day trip” and end up completely blown away? That’s exactly what happened when we followed our friends to the Iron Spike Model Train Museum in Washington. We expected a tiny room with a couple of trains… and maybe a solid lunch stop. Instead, we found a massive, beautifully designed space, incredibly detailed layouts, the friendliest volunteers you’ll ever meet, and yes—even a VIP greeting from Susie the dog. In this episode, we’re sharing the surprises, the laughs, and how a simple day trip turned into a full-blown miniature adventure. 🚂

The Last Supper Homily by Fr Jim Benz

Welcome to today’s episode as we reflect on the Fourth Sunday after Easter. In this homily, Fr. Jim Benz invites us to return to the sacred moment of the Last Supper— a moment filled with love, sacrifice, and a promise that continues to shape our faith today. Through his words, we’re drawn deeper into the meaning of Christ’s presence, the gift of the Eucharist, and what it truly means to follow Him. Take a moment, settle in, and open your heart to this powerful reflection.

First Communion - Taste and See

First Communion - The big day has finally arrived for our granddaughter, Aria. Her heart is bursting with joy, wonder, and just a few butterflies.

Filled with excitement, meaning, and childlike awe, her story is gently woven with the beloved song “Taste and See,” reminding us all of the sweetness of faith and the joy of her faith-filled journey milestone.

Good Friday - A Journey Through Time

The Podcast that Transcends Time and Space Based on the Good Friday Homily by Fr. Jim Benz Step into the story… not as a spectator—but as a witness.

Because every time the Eucharist is celebrated, it’s not just a memory—it’s a moment. Not just history—it’s happening right now. You’re not in Missouri… You’re in Jerusalem. You’re not in 2026… You’re at the Cross. At the Empty Tomb. At the Table. 🎙️ Tune in and discover the mystery, the power, and the love that turns every Mass into a doorway through time. This isn’t just a podcast… …it’s an encounter.

The Easter Sunday Podcast: Ants. Worms. Eggs.

Easter Joy Homily – Ants, Worms, & Eggs This isn’t your grandma’s Easter homily… unless your grandma is extremely cool! This Easter, we’re diving into the Resurrection using three words we absolutely did not expect in church: ants, worms, and eggs. Yes… ants. We’re zooming out from a comic strip all the way to the cosmos to remind ourselves just how tiny we are — and how wild it is that Jesus chose to become one of us anyway. Spoiler: if you’ve ever felt like an ant trying to understand the universe, this episode is for you. Then we’re wriggling straight into worms — thanks to Bishop Fulton Sheen and one very honest seventh‑grader who responded to theology with a heartfelt “Ew!” We’ll explore why the Incarnation is far more shocking (and far more loving) than we usually let ourselves imagine. And finally… eggs. Not the chocolate kind — the “are you spiritually fresh or spiritually hard‑boiled?” kind. Because nothing says “He is risen” like a metaphor that makes you rethink your omelets. We’re talking Ho‑Hum faith versus Oh‑My faith. We’re talking fifty days of Easter wonder. We’re talking about letting the Resurrection crack open your life the way a chick cracks open a shell. If you’re ready for an Easter message that’s equal parts hilarious, heartfelt, and holy — tune in.

Dating After 60 Zone: Episode 2

The Dating‑After‑60 Zone You unlock this door with the key of experience — a key you’ve earned through decades of triumphs, missteps, and at least one relationship that should’ve come with a warning label. Beyond this door lies another dimension: a dimension where romance moves more slowly, conversations run deeper, and everyone brings their own reading glasses. You’re entering a realm where first dates happen over early‑bird specials, where text messages are thoughtful, and where red flags are spotted quickly because, frankly, everyone has better lighting now. It is a landscape shaped by wisdom, humor, and the occasional creaky knee. Here, men and women over 60 search not for perfection, but for connection — the kind that feels warm, steady, and delightfully drama‑free. A place where hope lingers in the corners, patience is plentiful, and sometimes… the shadows flirt back. You are now stepping into… The Dating‑After‑60 Zone.

Life's Next Chapter Series - Episode 1 Welcome to the Golden Years

Imagine stepping into a dimension not only of sight and sound… but of senior discounts, mysterious joint noises, and the sudden urge to go to bed at 8:15 p.m. Welcome to Life’s Next Chapter—the podcast that lives somewhere between the Twilight Zone and the Early Bird Special. You are about to enter a world where: Time moves differently (mostly because you keep forgetting what day it is). Gravity becomes more aggressive every year. And objects—like your glasses, your keys, and your sanity—vanish without warning, only to reappear in the exact place you swore you already checked. Here, four brave senior citizens gather in the dark to investigate the strange phenomena of aging. Not ghosts or aliens—those are easy. We’re talking about the real mysteries: Why does your back hurt even though you did absolutely nothing? Who keeps turning down the thermostat? And why does every grandchild talk like they’re auditioning for a fast‑talking auction? This is the realm where naps are portals, doctor visits are plot twists, and every birthday after 60 unlocks a new superpower—usually the ability to predict the weather with your knees. So buckle up, adjust your hearing aids, and prepare to cross over into a place where aging isn’t scary… it’s just hilariously weird. You’ve just entered Life’s Next Chapter—the Senior Twilight Zone.
