Just thought you may be interested to know there is a school of thought (although most historians dispute) that Washington converted to Catholicism on his death bed. Here is a good starting point if you want to look into this: https://catholicism.org/george-washington-died-a-catholic.html
Also of interest, Confederate General James Longstreet did convert to Catholicism after the Civil War:

Happy 4th of July! Love you guys.😀
I have watched three of your broadcasts and am now watching the one you did for the Fourth of July. I am a new fan to your podcasts and enjoy learning the history behind the history of the church in America, and your discussions are educational, interesting and entertaining.
I love your religious statues and bobble heads. Why no Blessed Mother? Or St. Joseph? Or God? (perhaps Michelangelo’s God). I wouldn’t worry too much I think Jesus has a sense of humor and Ryan Scheel has that head bobbing the entire show from the vibrating table.
The first time I tuned into your show Rabbi Gordon was a guest, and all I could think of was the joke that starts out a rabbi, a priest, and a Catholic walk into a bar…..
I have been reading the Bible more during the past couple of years and the words are living words not words back from the dead. You take the Bible further and I hope your show is successful. I have even written an inspirational book that is scheduled to be published this fall.
I have always been intellectually curious about a myriad of subjects and as I said there is no reason why I can’t be entertained while I am learning new facts about Catholicism in America and the world. I hope your podcasts remain on the air. You are almost as entertaining as the cardinal who tossed his cape during his show, ‘Life is Worth Living’. Bishop Fulton Sheen. He is being beatified as Fr. Pagano probably knows, and had a powerful intellect. His show was live 60 years ago or more and what he said is still relevant if maybe his modern day analogies are now anachronistic.
Keep up the good work, bring on some more guests, and investigate and analyze our faith. I am a truth seeker and I believe you three are also.
Best of luck,
Andrea
