Busted Halo Show w/Fr. Dave Dwyer

A listener named Mike asks Father Dave about priests consuming the body and blood of Christ. "Father Dave said on the show [recently] that for a Mass to be valid, the priest has to consume both the body and blood of Christ — the bread and wine," Mike begins. "What happens if a Catholic priest is recovering from alcohol addiction or can't consume alcohol for medical reasons? Does he still have to consume the wine, or is there an exception in those circumstances?"

The Church will beatify Archbishop Fulton Sheen on September 24 in St. Louis, advancing him on the path to sainthood! Father Dave welcomes Dr. Peter Howard to discuss Archbishop Sheen's life, legacy, and ways you can get involved. Peter is the founder and president of the Fulton Sheen Institute and the Fulton Sheen Movement.

This September marks 25 years since the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001, and Father Dave welcomes Kevin Tuerff to inspire kindness leading up to this anniversary. Kevin is an author, speaker, and founder of the global charity Pay It Forward 9/11, which is dedicated to honoring lives lost and the heroes of this tragedy through random acts of kindness for strangers. His own story of that day is chronicled in the Tony Award-winning Broadway musical "Come From Away."

A listener named Kathy asks Father Dave about a recent reading at Mass. "A question came to me on Sunday during the Gospel. In the very last line, Jesus says 'don't tell anybody who I am,' and he says that a couple of times throughout the Gospels. I'm just curious as to why; one would think that he would want [the disciples] to tell people who he was, right?"

Father Dave welcomes licensed marriage and family therapist Tommy Tighe to discuss how Saint Dymphna can inspire those in the midst of depression. Tommy is the author of "I'm Depressed — Now What? Saint Dymphna's Guide to Building Your Depression Playbook."
