One of my first ever guests was Daniel Rogers, who gave perhaps the best answer on the question what's the point anyway that I've heard - to love and to be loved.

As is probably the case for anyone interested in Catholic or Christian content, I came across some great little videos from Emily Torres AKA Catholic.Converts in my journey to study the Catholic faith and was immediately impressed by her wisdom and intellect.

1:12:28

Anyone who has ever lifted the lid on preterism has almost certainly come across Don Preston in their studies - and they'll either love him or hate him! I disagree with Don on many things, but I've always warmed to him so it was great to finally get him on the show. We worked out that he became a preterist the year after I was born, which shows jus…

Episode #41 - Wading Through Christian Cults And Finding Peace with Catherine Gavin 1:00:34

1:00:34

Catherine is a fellow Aussie who I was connected to via our mutual friend and former guest, Rick Welch. Though we both have come to similar conclusions on our Biblical studies, we recorded this episode right after I'd converted to the Catholic Church and it was interesting to 'compare notes' given Catherine grew up Catholic but has arrived at a dif…

I heard Davey's story when he appeared on Behind the Smile with one of my former guests Ash Butterrs and was very keen to bring him on for a chat.

For as long as I can remember, I've always been interested in financial markets and it was actually in the process of studying this that I really started to get interested in broader things like history, philosophy and faith.
