.On Father’s Day weekend, Kevin Wells and missionary priest Fr. Dan Leary discuss the symmetry between the fatherhood of dads and priests in rectories. They succeed – and fail – in similar ways.

In this week's One2One Podcast, Kevin Wells and Fr. Dan Leary discuss a lack of coherence in spiritual fatherhood and discuss the many aspects of the nobility and heroism stemming from Fr. Al's priesthood, as Kevin reads excerpts from Priest and Beggar.

Kevin welcomes Fr. Dan Leary back into the One2One Podcast as the pair discuss the might and power of Fr. Al as portrayed in Kevin's just-released biography, Priest and Beggar. Fr. Dan discusses drawing from the sacrificial life of Fr. Al's priesthood and bringing into his own - and of the priests that make a choice to live more comfortably.  

Kevin shares a wide-open discussion with Indiana priest Fr. Jonathan Meyer, whose witness of sacrifice and radiance for his flock during the pandemic, brought 28,000 new subscribers to his All Saints parish YouTube page. Discussed today is the "insanity" of many of today's bishops and priests having left the holy path that St. John Vianney and Venerable Aloysius Schwartz blazed for the world.

Kevin invites renowned author, scholar and moral theologian Dr. Janet Smith into the One2One Podcast today to contrast the soaring heroism of Father Al with the many dark clouds that hover over chanceries, rectories, and the American Catholic Church today. Their frank discussion centers around what may be aptly termed “bullying” in the Church today. 

America's boldest shepherd joins One2One host Kevin Wells on today's podcast to discuss the bold and prophetic voice the shepherd must possess today. With the Heresy of Modernism around every corner, the Texas bishop tells Kevin how devotion to the Eucharist and the consolation of the Blessed Mother has guided and shaped his voice as he's addressed issues other bishops refuse to touch. 

Fr. Dan and Kevin break into an open-air discussion on the profound meaning of suffering and redemption in today's One2One Podcast, live from Girlstown in Chalco Mexico. 

One2One Podcast host Kevin Wells travels to Chalco, Mexico to spend time with Fr. Dan Leary at Girlstown, where he is overwhelmed by 3,300 joy-filled girls, Fr. Dan's intense spiritual work load and a graduate who plays the cello like Yo-Yo Ma. In fact, Leo - who was adopted by the Sisters of Mary as a baby and a graduate of Boystown in Korea - occasionally performs in orchestral concerts with Yo-Yo Ma. 

In today's One2One Podcast, Fr. Dan and Kevin discuss the lost flock, the fading voice of the Good Shepherd, and the identity of the shepherd that will lead them back. He will have his work cut out - more than a year after shutting down churches, Masses, and the sacraments because of COVID-19, many American bishops are wondering what they have wrought. Several millions of once Mass-attending laity remain at home on Sunday. Too many believe they will never return. 

Missionary priest Fr. Dan Leary discuss the manner in which missionary work for the poor and devastated allows them to see Christ in the flesh, rather than as a forgotten and seldom-remembered Savior.

The story does not end in the Cross. It continues in the hope and healing found in the resurrection. Fr. Dan Leary and Kevin are joined by a SPECIAL GUEST, Sr. Margie to discuss the joy and hope of Easter.

Kevin and Fr. Dan conclude the one2one Lenten Journey Podcast by discussing the sacrificial work of the Sisters of Mary, Father Al and the role of the holy priest. Each looks to the crucified Christ to learn what true love is.

Fr. Dan and Kevin dive deep into the ten saints who engineered a future saint's heroic work. Venerable Aloysius Schwartz's entire priesthood rotated around sanctity - and these ten paragons were never far from his heart.

Fr. Dan and Kevin discuss the manner in which Fr. Al's devotion to prayer enabled him to accomplish things never before done in the history of the Church.

Kevin and Fr. Dan discuss righteous anger, holy boldness and the daring priesthood of Fr. Al.

Instead of heading home to America for Christmas after six months in Mexico, missionary priest Fr. Dan Leary felt strongly called to remain with the Sisters of Mary and the children who couldn't return home due to unsafe conditions. A quiet Christmas ended up becoming perhaps the most memorable Christmas of Fr. Dan's life. He speaks of it here in the latest One 2 One podcast with co-host Kevin Wells.
