Another car show, on the way home from seeing 2012.

Ben turned 7 and had a sleepover, we review Planet 51 and revisit Star Trek, and what does the Church say about the apocalypse?

Spartacus goes to doggie heaven, V is still cool after all these years, and Mac & Kat throw down about germs at communion.

Cub Scout trips, zombie batteries, Transformers 2, lots of voice feedback, and how great is our creed?

Carcasting this week: Green Measles, Sam likes brunettes, the emotional truth of Wild Things, and how to raise bos who respect women.

Mac is in uberlove with Ubercaster, The Wrestler is good but rough, and Kat deals with small town drama.

Podcasting from the backyard, we talk about first Friday Mass, Point Break does NOT hold up over time, and is geo-politics ready for Jesus?

Kat’s surgery goes off without a hitch, Ben is into Bakugans, don’t fast forward through Flash Fowad and clearly, the Devil created Sudoku.

Kat's got a surgery coming up, Mac loved Coraline, and GarageBand ruins our day.

Homeshoolers attacked by ducks! The Tenenbaums return Home! We have to defend the faith!

We help Colby finish his Eagle Scout project, talk to Father Ben about District 9 and try to apply the fruits of the Spirit in a terrible local tragedy.

Mac's back from Baltimore, Sam has "transformed" into a 4 year old, Jude is cleaned from original sin, Greek is entertaining.. for Kat.  Oh yeah, we should pray.

Kat hates CiCi's Pizza, Mac is curious about an "Angry" sandwich, Dollhouse is pretty boring, our kids are into Heroes, lots of voicemail, and distractions during Mass.

Mac has to go back to school, but the gutters are clean. Too many movies and shows to mention. And Katherine is tired... weepy tired.

This week, Mac's ears recover from a weekend with the Willits, we defy you to like Defiance, and we talk about the Eucharistic Congress.

Vacation complaints, go see Up, not Night at the Museum 2, Judith is scandalous and the pope knows him some St. Paul!

This week Mac already starts to lose track of the days, we pack for vacation,  we just don't care about Valkyrie, and we talk about Chris West getting into hot water.

Graduation, playing in slow motion, the CNMC, Star Trek, and why can't we adopt a frozen embryo?

This Week, Mac gets a smile from Jude, school is winding down, we get "Lost" in finale week, and we harp on taking time for family on the Sabbath.

This Week, we play a game show with Kat's mom and try to raise a few bucks for SQPN.  We also talk about Wolverine and The Shack.

It's been a long time.  We catch up on the last three weeks in our small town.

Spring Break comes to an end; we buy a brood of chicks, BSG was great from the beginning; there's a Where the Wild Things Are movie coming out; and make the most of Holy Week.

We're adjusting to life...and podcasting with a baby; Mac says goodbye to BSG; and Kat prefers confession like you see in the movies.

It's a short show about the arrival of the newest Barron boy.  Lock up your daughters, folks!

No yet, last Friday was sort of unplugged, we recommend Horton Hears  Who, don't know if we can recommend The Shack, and talk about almsgiving in the Lenten season.

Homebirth on the horizon, Man on Wire, and Lent is on its way.

This week we fill you in on Katherine's butt pain (that baby is laying on her last nerve!), how Mac had a great husband moment, beautiful warm weather, and our family feeds us all weekend.  We share reviews of Eagle Eye and Lake of Fire, as well as ask you to watch Man on Wire this week and let us know what you think.  To round out, we hear your emails about the issue of altar servers. 

Katherine is limping around our house which is not expanding, Mac is revisiting the Matrix trilogy and rolling the world up into a big sticky ball.  In Catholic Stuff we look at the role of alter boys in raising male leaders... and complain about our parish.

Sam's got pneumonia, we're cookin' like crazy, no SQPN babies yet.  We're far too entertained with Lost, BSG, Stuff White People Like, and World of Goo!

Its been two weeks since the last show.  Colds have come and almost gone, it's finally cold outside, West Wing Alias and Okami have been entertaining us, no feedback, and its a week of prayer for Christian unity.  Oh yeah, don't get a dead hamster.

Christmas hits and misses, holiday trips, Benjamin Button, resolutions, and the book, Boys Should Be Boys.

We starve our dogs (not really), look at the year in review, Mac revisits the Mad Max saga, we look forward to the Jan return of Lost and BSG, and we get pretty fired up about the Church abuse scandal.  Merry Christmas!

This Week: Its been two weeks, calamitous Sundays, putting up lights, we review The Fall, get more info on Catholic weddings, and look at whether charity should have its limits.

Thanksgiving at the Barron homestead, unexpected weddings, quick reviews of Twilight & Bolt, and nitpicking the differences between Catholic and Protestant weddings.

Ben has a sleepover party, Katherine drains her sinuses, Thanksgiving is coming, we review Incredible Hulk, some of you hate Expelled, and Advent is coming!

Kat's been taking the boys all over the place, we're taking a shopping day Tuesday, Netflix is ruining our lives, you guys add to our advice, and we discuss the good reasons to go to church.

This week: The election is over and camping was a success. We review Son of Rambow, The Hustler, and Into the Wild. We hear from you and answer (in a roundabout way) the question - things I wish I knew before I got married.

New cameras can't capture the essence of homecoming week vandalism or the fun of sleepovers, Vince Vaughn's Wild West Comedy Show is long on humanity (and profanity), your kids aren't going to hell if they trick or treat, and cycles of faith are just part of the human condition, not part of God.

This week: Fridge fixes and fall festival time. We talk about SNL, Palin, and a host of Hulu related time wasters.We read from your mail (answering questions about families reactions to NFP). Chris asks about Walk to Emmaus and we fill in a little about Crusillo.

blog mentioned: http://catholictechtips.stblogs.com/2008/06/12/10-ways-to-avoid-being-a-dud-at-church/

Dog bowel events, Tropic Thunder, John Adams, and what we expect from our parish priest.

This week, Mac's getting a day off, we need to pray for the Gulf Coast, we revisit Casino Royale, and talk about a painful topic...circumcision!

The Boys started school, we read The Road & other stuff, lost of voice mail, and talk about the Catholic view of the "Personal Jesus".

Mac goes back to school totally unprepared, Guitar Hero III sucks Mac in, and we look at the Church's position on gambling.

Mac's last week of freedom, Ben discovers capitalism, Flight of the Navigator doesn't hold up, and we discuss what makes our marriage strong.

It's been a big week...especially around Kat's tummy area. We talk about everything from video games to books and revisit NFP.

We're back from two weeks off and a road trip to Blakely. Updates on Kat's mom, The Young Indiana Jones Chronicles is boring, ER is not, Hulu rocks, and Penelope is good for the whole fam. Catholic stuff focusses on holding on to too much stuff.

We celebrate the 4th with good friends, fireworks, and a potato cannon; we tell you why you shouldn't see Wanted and should see Wall-e; and we look at the passion of St. Paul.

We are still on a high from the CNMC; we review the Happening, Lego Indiana Jones, and Bella; and talk about why we do what we do.

We didn't get a new show out this week, but we got several requests to post this online. This is the short "film" we used for one of our presentations at the CNMC. We were supposed to come up with a segment on blogging. This is what oozed forth from the creative spigot.

The week has involved lots of play dates, a rusty saw, and grizzly portrayals of trench warfare.  Colby stops by to tell us about the Ridgeline and we talk about God the Father.

Red dye and mysterious allergies, Mac sees First Blood for the first time, we recommend The Prestige for a second time, and Katherine takes the long way around to connect breastfeeding to the sacrament of marriage.

Not quite a show this week.  This is the only 10 minutes we could sqeeze out of 90 minutes worth of trying.  Too many interruptions... too many children... etc.
