Tyranny’s Favorite Tricks (Fr. Robert McTeigue, S.J.) 4/10/26
About this episode
Father Robert McTeigue examines how tyrants erase history not by burning books, but by pretending that the library itself never existed, citing examples of lost Holy Week traditions like Tenebrae. He urges a renewed reading of the Church’s heritage as an antidote to cultural amnesia and spiritual drift. Father finishes with Weekend Readiness to help prepare you for Sunday Mass.
