The Fathers Speak
Readings from the Church Fathers for the Western Rite Calendar
Fr. John Fenton
Show overview
The Fathers Speak has been publishing since 2019, and across the 7 years since has built a catalogue of 2,342 episodes. That works out to roughly 150 hours of audio in total. Releases follow a near-daily cadence.
Episodes typically run under ten minutes — most land between 3 min and 4 min — and the run-time is fairly consistent across the catalogue. None of the episodes are flagged explicit by the publisher. It is catalogued as a EN-US-language Religion & Spirituality show.
The show is actively publishing — the most recent episode landed yesterday, with 132 episodes already out so far this year. Published by Fr. John Fenton.
