  • Can a Baby Go to Heaven Without Baptism? – Questions with Father #55

    Can a Baby Go to Heaven Without Baptism? – Questions with Father #55
    Dec 5 2025
    Today on Questions with Father, we explore one of the most delicate and often misunderstood topics in Catholic theology: the necessity of Baptism and the mystery of Limbo. Fr. Ian Andrew Palko joins us to explain what the Church teaches about the fate of unbaptized infants, the difference between Baptism of desire and sacramental Baptism, and when Baptism must be administered conditionally. What happens to miscarried or stillborn children? Can we hope for their salvation? And what limits does the Church set on that hope? This episode offers clarity, charity, and a deeper appreciation for God’s mercy and the urgency of Baptism.

  • Co-Redemptrix and Mediatrix: What the Church Has Always Taught – Questions with Father #54

    Co-Redemptrix and Mediatrix: What the Church Has Always Taught – Questions with Father #54
    Nov 15 2025
    Today on Questions with Father, we take a closer look at the Vatican’s recent document Mater Populi Fidelis, which discourages the use of the Marian titles “Co-Redemptrix” and “Mediatrix of All Graces.” Fr. Paul Robinson and Fr. Ian Andrew Palko join a roundtable discussion to explain what these titles mean, why they matter, and why the Church has long honored Our Lady in this way. Are these just outdated expressions—or is something deeper at stake? We’ll explore the theology behind Marian mediation, the history of these devotions, and why the faithful are right to be concerned—and even outraged—by this document.

  • Where Do We Go From Here? The Future of the Mass – The Catholic Mass #48

    Where Do We Go From Here? The Future of the Mass – The Catholic Mass #48
    Oct 31 2025
    Today in The Catholic Mass Series, we ask the big question: Where do we go from here? After nearly 50 episodes on the liturgy, Fr. Palko helps us take stock of what we have learned about the Traditional Mass, the Novus Ordo Mass, and the confusion in the Church that underlies this crisis. What reforms are acceptable? At what point must changes in the liturgy be rejected? Can the liturgy develop without compromising the Faith? And what does fidelity look like in an age of confusion? As we approach the end of the series, we look ahead with realism, charity, and hope—knowing that true renewal must begin with holy priests, holy families, and unwavering love for the Faith.

  • Can Any Pope Forbid the Traditional Latin Mass? – The Catholic Mass #47

    Can Any Pope Forbid the Traditional Latin Mass? – The Catholic Mass #47
    Oct 24 2025
    Today we tackle a foundational topic in the traditional Catholic world: Is it still lawful—or even safe—to celebrate or attend the Traditional Latin Mass? With growing restrictions and renewed attacks on the ancient Mass, Fr. Paul Robinson unpacks the legal, historical, and theological questions at stake. Does Quo Primum still bind the Church? Can a pope forbid what previous popes promulgated? What about the authority of Pope Paul VI and the New Mass? This episode explores the extent of papal power over liturgy, debunks common misconceptions, and makes a powerful case for why holding fast to the TLM is no act of rebellion—but of fidelity.
