It’s been a while since Matt and I got behind a microphone together. Today we bring you up-to-speed with what’s been happening in our lives. We had intended to also read some listener messages, but we ran out of time. We’ll do that in the next episode!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Show Notes<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2022 Drink-of-the-week was mixed. Matt was drinking Aberfeldy (12 year) <\/a>and I was drinking \u201cLayer Cake\u201d Cabernet Sauvignon<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2022 Quote-of-the-week:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cMy happiest hours are spent with three or four old friends in old clothes\u2026 sitting up till the small hours\u2026 talking nonsense, poetry, theology, [pause] metaphysics over beer, tea, and pipes. There\u2019s no sound I like better than adult male laughter.\u201d<\/p>Autobiographic blurb for Macmillan (publisher)<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

\u2022 We chatted about catching up with long-lost friends.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2022 Matt spoke about being present at a recording of the Ordered Liberty podcast<\/a> and their simple microphone setup.  I commented that I recently came across a kickstarter for a microphone which you can sync with your iPhone<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2022 I explained why we drink on air, quoting an episode of The Catholic Man Show<\/a> where Adam and Dave explain why they<\/strong> drink on their podcast:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe [drink on air] to highlight, ultimately, the virtue of moderation and temperance. These are important virtues for today\u2019s age because it is a day of instant self-gratification. In days past, there were natural barriers between you and your appetites. Things were not readily available anytime. You could not get same-day delivery from Amazon[\u2026] You did not have central heating and air. Things were not always there when you wanted them[\u2026] There was discomfort. Today we have all things, all the time, whenever we want them and, as such, our self-regulating capacity has diminished. We must learn to regulate. We must learn to moderate ourselves,[\u2026] strengthen the moderation muscle. So that\u2019s why temperance is important. That\u2019s why learning to drink moderately is important, with the right company, at the right time, in the right way, with the right beverage. And if you can do those things, it will augment your experience with the people you\u2019re with, with the drink you\u2019re enjoying, with the time you\u2019re spending. And that\u2019s why we do it, because we want to promote authentic leisure, we want to promote the good life, the virtuous life. And virtue isn\u2019t just a \u2018shutting off\u2019 of everything\u2026 We\u2019re teetotallers\u2026if we were, then we have a big problem with Jesus and His first miracle\u2026\u201d<\/p>The Catholic Man Show, Episode “Auxilium Christianorum”<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

\u2022 Matt announced that he’s moved back to Michigan. He also brought us up-to-date on what he’s been reading recently – he’s just got one more book to go in The Lord of the Rings<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2022 Matt encouraged the listeners to download the Hallow<\/a> app. Our listeners can use the promo code PINTSWITHJACK to try it out free for a month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2022 The Beautiful Depths blog<\/a> has now launched a podcast<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2022 I spoke about some of the recent guests we’ve had on the podcast, as well as the interviews where I have been invited onto other podcasts. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2022 I explained how I lost my job, but how I now have a job at Evernote<\/a>. Many of these interview processes require a considerable investment in time and this got us talking about the Sunk Cost Fallacy in life and faith.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2022 We announced the winner of the Peter Kreeft book, Symbol of Substance<\/a>, as user “Muggins211”<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is an awesomely stellar podcast that I love to listen to on long bike rides. It makes time fly by because these two likable gents make you feel like you’re just a buddy sitting next to them enjoying a beverage and chewing the cud over our favorite subject. Further up and further in, gentlemen! Cheers!<\/p>iTunes review by Muggins211<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

If Muggins211 sends us a message @pintswithjack or through the website www.pintswithjack.com we will post the book!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2022 I reminded the listeners that there is still a chance to win the G.K. Chesterton book Knight of the Holy Ghost<\/a>, simply by posting a Chesterton quotation on social media and tagging us.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
