The Conor Gallagher Show

Why does God give the Church Eucharistic miracles? Shaun McAfee joins Conor to explore some of the Church's most extraordinary Eucharistic miracles, from Lanciano and Bolsena to Siena and beyond, examining what history, science, and Catholic tradition reveal about these remarkable events. Along the way, they discuss the Real Presence, why miracles strengthen rather than replace faith, how the Church investigates modern claims, and what these signs can teach us about approaching the Eucharist with greater reverence, wonder, and devotion.

Satan and his demons are targeting your family—but his attacks are often far more subtle than most Catholics realize. Exorcist Fr. Chad Ripperger explains why the devil's primary strategy is often not dramatic possession, but subtle attacks on our thoughts, perceptions, and relationships. Drawing from Sacred Scripture, years of experience as an exorcist, and the wisdom of the saints, he reveals how resentment, distorted assumptions, and the loss of daily self-sacrifice slowly erode marriages and family life—and what Catholics can do to resist these attacks. He also highlights God's providence, the purpose of suffering, spiritual discipline, the reality of the occult, and how to achieve holiness in a world increasingly marked by spiritual conflict.

Why are so many young Catholics discovering the Traditional Latin Mass, and what does that mean for the future of the Church? Tony Shriner, CEO of Mass of the Ages and Reclaim Films, joins Conor to discuss the explosive growth of attendance at the TLM, the lasting effects of the liturgical reforms following Vatican II, and why tradition continues to attract families, seminarians, and young priests around the world. They also explore the role of Catholic media in shaping culture, the success of Mass of the Ages, and Tony’s vision for building a Christ-centered film industry that can tell authentically Catholic stories for generations to come.

Was Vatican II a renewal of the Church, the beginning of a crisis, or something more complicated? In this episode, Conor sits down for a second time with Dr. Peter Kwasniewski for a thoughtful examination of the Second Vatican Council, its authority, its documents, and its lasting impact on Catholic life. Together they discuss the question of ambiguity in the council texts, the rise of modernism, the interpretation of religious liberty, questions of outside influences, and the challenges that emerged in the decades that followed.

This special four-hour episode confronts one of the most consequential questions facing the Catholic Church today: is the Society of St. Pius X (SSPX) on the right side of history? The SSPX’s Fr. Jonathan Loop argues that a continuing crisis in the Church has created a state of necessity that can justify extraordinary measures to preserve Catholic tradition and the priesthood. Fr. Gerald Murray does not think those extraordinary measures are justified and that the SSPX’s misapplication of canon law undermines the Church's divinely established authority.
BIOGRAPHIES
Fr. Jonathan Loop is a priest of the Society of Saint Pius X, a convert to the Catholic Faith, and a respected educator, speaker, and apologist known for his clear defense of Catholic tradition. Ordained in 2011, he has devoted his priesthood to forming young Catholics, preaching the Faith, and addressing the challenges facing the Church today.
Fr. Gerald E. Murray is a priest of the Archdiocese of New York, canon lawyer, author, and widely respected commentator on Catholic doctrine, canon law, and ecclesiastical affairs. Ordained to the priesthood in 1984, he has devoted decades of priestly ministry to the defense and explanation of the Church’s perennial teaching and is one of the most recognizable voices in contemporary Catholic discourse.
