#337 Cardinal Burke - The Old Testament

If you spend any time off-road like I do, you already know how easy it is to end up second-guessing where you're at, whether you're still on a legal trail, or if the route ahead is even worth taking. That's why I've been using OnX Off-Road. It's an off-road navigation app that shows trails, public and private land boundaries, places to camp, and detailed trail info all in one place. And what makes it really useful is the amount of actual trail data. You can check difficulty ratings, terrain details, trail photos, even recent reports from other riders before you head out there. The other big thing is you can download maps ahead of time, because once you lose service out there, your phone is pretty much useless. But with OnX Off-Road, everything still works offline. And if you're riding with a group, their location sharing feature lets everybody stay on the same map so nobody gets lost or separated. What I like most about it is it gives me a lot more confidence when I'm exploring somewhere new. I'm not wasting time backtracking, accidentally ending up on private land or trying to figure things out once I'm already deep into the trail system. I can plan ahead, know what I'm getting into, and spend more time actually enjoying the ride instead of worrying about navigation the whole time. Search OnX OffRoad in the App Store or Google Play. Again, that's OnX OffRoad in the App Store or Google Play. Most guys will spend money on gear, training, supplements, everything else, and then still wear the same uncomfortable underwear all day. If you're moving, traveling, working out, or sitting for hours, you feel it. That's why I like Sheath. What makes Sheath different is the dual pouch design. It keeps everything separated, supported, and comfortable, so you're not constantly adjusting or thinking about it. And I like that Sheath was originally built by an active duty operator who needed something that could handle long, hot, miserable days.

So it was built to solve a real problem, not just look good in packaging. They're soft, breathable, and built for daily wear, travel, training, or long days on set. Feel it to believe it. Go to sheath.com/srs and use code SRS for 20% off.

And Sheath offers a first pair guarantee.

So if it's not for you, you get your money back. That's sheath.com/srs and use code SRS for 20% off. Sheath, the underwear of legends. Thanks to Sheath for sponsoring the episode.

Cardinal Burke, welcome to the show.

Thank you, Shawn. I'm glad to be with you.

Shawn Ryan (2:50)

Thank you for coming.

This is extremely surreal from us. So we took a long shot and I didn't think there was a chance we would get you here. And here you are sitting here. And it's an honor, it's an honor to do this. So thank you for making the trip.

Raymond Leo Burke (3:12)

Not at all. I respect very much what you're doing and you're reaching out to a great number of people and with important messages for them. And so I am happy to be some little part of it.

Shawn Ryan (3:30)

Well, let me start you out with an introduction.

Raymond Leo Cardinal Burke, you're an American Cardinal, widely respected for your expertise in canon law and church governance. You previously served as Archbishop of St. Louis and as a prefect of the Apostolic Signatura, the Church's highest judicial court. Pope Benedict XVI elevated you to the College of Cardinals in 2010 You are known internationally for your defense of traditional Catholic doctrine, the sacred liturgy, marriage, family, and the sacraments. You are also the founder of the Shrine of Our Lady of Guadalupe in La Crosse, Wisconsin, which you established as a place of pilgrimage, prayer, and spiritual renewal.

Raymond Leo Burke (4:20)

Thank you.

Shawn Ryan (4:24)

And, Cardinal, I was hoping you could lead us in prayer before we get started here.

Raymond Leo Burke (4:30)

In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, amen.

Almighty God, we ask you to guide us in our conversation to remove from our minds all distractions and from our hearts any wrong affections that we might understand more perfectly than you do. We ask you to give us your will for us and have the courage to carry out whatever it is you ask of us. We ask all this in the name of your only begotten Son, our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, who is with you in the Holy Spirit, one God, forever and ever. Amen. We ask especially the intercession of Our Lady of Guadalupe on our conversation today, and also St. Lawrence, whose feast, the Deacon and Martyr, whose feast we celebrate today. In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
