Art, AI, and Acedia—an interesting conversation with a full-time artist and professional art director Johnny Isorena, who is not only a talented creative but who has many thoughts about the intersections of AI and art and the possible spiritual dangers AI can cause those who are not careful. Isang masayang usapan na naman in Episode 138 of the PadsCast

It's question and answer time from the OG PadsCast duo!Dahil sa pag-iikot ni Pads Albert sa iba't ibang mga youth and church events, he has actually collected many questions that he promised to answer in the show (dahil di na kinaya sa event!). So eto na, the first of what could be many, many, many more episodes for answering your questions, as many as we can, until the next Q&A episode. From how to tell your Titas na fake news ang na-share nila, to using AI as a counselor/spiritual director, watch out as the questions we get might be the same question you have been looking an answer for. All this and more at episode 137 of the PadsCast!

We have a new beatified soul and we think he should be your next favorite saint!The more you read and know about Archbishop Fulton Sheen, the more we are amazed by him—una dahil grabe ang achievements niya (Emmy award, top-rating show, countless bestselling books), but more importantly, because how fruitful his activites were to convert souls, make even the most unchurched listen and open up, and support the Church's mission around the world. All that, while crediting the Eucharist as the source and power behind his person and ministry!Sana ang episode na ito ay maging isang invitation—for you to look more deeply into this holy man's life and works, and learn how to be good and faithful Christians that make the world stop and consider being Catholic.

Wait, don't skip...this episode with the one and only paboritong taga prayover ng bayan, Fr. Fiel Pareja! We've had him via zoom before but now finally Fr. Fiel is in the studio! And in this episode we will look back and look forward—balik tanaw sa Jubilee of Digital Missionaries kung saan pareho kaming nakapag-attend, and pagtanaw sa paparating na World Youth Day 2027 sa Korea, by reacting to their newly released official theme song. It's another chill, meaningful, and exciting time together kasama kayo sa episode 135 ng The PadsCast!

Sa wakas nakabalik din ang paborito ng bayang mga madreng masayahin! And this time we have not one, not two, but three sisters, whose vocation stories will both enrich you and leave you breathless (kakatawa!)All this and more in Episode 134 of the PadsCast!

Muling nagbabalik ang PadsCast OG duo para pag usapan ang ilang mga natatanging pangyayari nung nakaraang Holy Week: kalapating ginapos at ginawang props sa salubong; prusisyon na sinabayan ng AI-generated prayer leaders imbes na tao, at ilang reaction ni Pads Albert sa kanyang pagiging Good Friday Special ng isa sa pinaka-kilalang podcasts sa bansa: The KoolPals. All this and more in Episode 133 of the PadsCast!

Sa pagkasiksik at paguumapaw ng reflections and wisdom ng mga guests ko, napahaba kami, buti na lang they're also very engaging and funny, kaya samahan niyo kaming paliparin ang oras sa isang kwentuhan tungkol sa mabuting paraan (at mga kakulangan) nating mga Katoliko pagdating sa ating pinakamahalagang misyon: ang pagbabahagi kay Kristo, kasama sina Fr. Migs Ramirez and Bro. Jonathan Yogawin

Nakilala ko ang batang batang pari na kasama natin ngayon sa Jubilee of Digital Missionaries sa Roma nung 2025. Wala pang dalawang taong pari, pero nakakainspire at nakakachallenge siyang halimbawa sa mga paring tulad namin at pati na sa libu-libong taong nakakabasa ng kanyang mga viral reflections sa Facebook. Pero sa kwentuhang ito mas nalaman ko ang kanyang kwento—a powerful testimony to how letting God's plans override our own, no matter how painful and crushing it can be, is always the best path to follow. Kwento ng pagsunod at pagpapaubaya sa mga plano ng Panginoon mula sa tunay na buhay ni Fr. France Baasis, in episode 131 of the PadsCast!

Dalawang trending issues, both surrounding priests on social media. Ang isa, pinag-usapan dahil sa maanghang na salitang binitawan sa kanyang pagturo. The other, an influencer priest from Italy who suddenly announced he is stepping away from the ministry. Mga katanungang inspired ng mga kwentong ito, pag-uusapan nina Pads in episode 130 of The PadsCast!

"Kailan ka mag-aasawa?" "Uy daming travel pics, pero ayaw magpautang!" "Bakit palagi na lang ako?" Kung naka-relate ka sa kahit isa dyan (pero yung totoo, sa lahat no?!), this episode is for you! And not only that, but we're having this crucial discussion with our most requested comeback guest, Doc Michele Alignay! So need we say more? Click play now at sabay sabay tayong tumawa at umaray sa usapang siguradong maraming tatamaan, in Episode 129 of the PadsCast!
