NB#1: In the first couple of minutes I typed up some notes on where I wanted the interview to go, forgetting how efficient my microphone is at picking up very small sounds. I am not proficient enough to edit them out, and doing it again is impossible. Suffer the 2 minutes of keystrokes and all will be well.
NB#2: I apologize that I am a Latinist and not a media producer. Next time I will bear in mind to lower the input on my microphone for phone interviews. Still, the two hours are enjoyable and well worth it.
Episode Notes:
SSPX position for background on the 1988 Consecrations
Remnant reprint of a 1987 article on Assisi
Stephen’s position on why the “Resist you to the face” pamphlet was a great overreach concerning John Paul II
During the course of the interview, Stephen could not recall which “Matt” of the Wanderer had contacted him and whether he was still living or not, and I hadn’t the faintest idea myself. As it turns out it was Alphonse Matt, not Walter, as Stephen said in the interview, who published the book on the non negiotiables and wrote the preface. It would appear (and at the Remnant or the Wanderer they can correct me, as there is nothing readily available internet-wise) it appears Alphonse Matt is still living. Walter Matt on the other hand died in 2002, +RIP.
