Carlo Acutis, the Millennial Saint, lived an ordinary life and loved the people around him in an extraordinary way. He shows the modern world that holiness is for everyone, we are all called to be saints. An upcoming documentary, The Boy from Milan, shows the personal testimony of those who knew him during his life. Emily Mentock, executive producer of Based on a True Saint, joins Fr. George. She shares her experience documenting the lives of saints and soon-to-be saints from the people who actually knew them in real life.

Listen to the previous episode to learn how Fitness and Nutrition are the tools for the modern ascetic. As humans, made of body and soul, we must take care of our bodies and that can be a means of self discipline. The goal is to become a total self gift to others. Exercise and eating well are means to help us love God more fully and those in our lives more fully. Chase Crouse of Hypuro Fit joins Fr. George to discuss how Catholics should approach fitness and nutrition. as tools to grow in holiness.

As a bonus, can a theologian tell when AI generates fake Bible verses? Fr. George presents 10 verses to Chase, 5 are real Bible verses and 5 are AI generated fakes. and Chase needs to tell the difference. Do you think you can tell the difference?
