Those Catholic Gamers
Friends coming together to discuss leisure, video games, life issues, all through their Catholic world view.
Listen on:
Welcome to Those Catholic Gamers
This is a podcast about intersection of video games and the Catholic faith. While we are not professional philosophers, theologians, or game designers, we do love to discuss these topics. The aim of the podcast is to invite both gamers and non-gamers alike to the dialog of faith and entertainment.
We seek to have these dialogs through different structured conversations. These conversations are categorized into reviews, both with newer games and retrospectives, and in in-depth discussions on aspects such as game design, themes, genres, and so on, all with a Catholic world view.

Gaming has gotten a bad rap within Catholic discussion and Conner and James talk about it. Areas discussed include ordo amoris (not mortis, that would be death), our prayer life (or how we are failing and striving to be better), other ongoing struggles, how we met our wives, a little dating advice, and how we game now being married men. Its a rambling episode so just strap in and enjoy.
