Today is the feast day of St. Pope John Paul II, who died in April. Because of this Mike, Nate and Jessica talk about saints who's feast day isn't the day they died and why. They talk about popes called the Great (what did Nicholas do?), St. Pope John Paul II, Lent, Advent, Easter, and other saints messing with saints' days, moving relics (translations), St. Pope John XXIII, St. Thomas Aquinas, Zelie and Louis Martin, First names as last names, St. John Henry Newman, St. Theresa of Avila, easy fasting, St. Benedict, St. Patrick, St. Joseph, St. Thomas, A book that all we know about is that it wasn't written by St. Jerome, St. Gregory the Great, Pope St. Fabian and becoming a pope.
