Today on the show, my friend Robert Mixa of the Word on Fire Institute joins me to talk about our innate human desire for enchantment, how to nurture that desire through Catholic education, Max Weber, the liturgy, Big Tech, and Facebook's Metaverse. It's a wide-ranging conversation that also happens to be really fun.
