    #222 Did The Vatican Just REVERSE Its View On Mary?
    Nov 6 2025
    Joe reviews the Vatican’s latest document on Mary, “Mater Populi Fidelis.” Some Catholics are concerned that age-old titles of the Blessed Virgin (Co-Redemptrix, Mediatrix) are being banned. Is that actually the case? Transcript: Joe: Welcome back to Shameless Popery. I’m Joe Heschmeyer and I want to explore some controversial Marian titles and the Vatican’s recent intervention into whether we should use these kind of terms or not. And the two in particular I want to focus on are the terms whether we should call Mary Co-Redemptrix and whether we should call her Me...

  • #221 Gavin, “Quote-Mining,” and The Didache… - Joe Heschmeyer

    #221 Gavin, “Quote-Mining,” and The Didache… - Joe Heschmeyer
    Nov 4 2025
    Joe replies to Gavin’s video examining his position on the Didache and it’s scholarship, as it applies to the Papacy. Transcript: Joe: Welcome back to Shameless Popery. I’m Joe Heschmeyer and I have to apologize in advance. I’m losing my voice a little bit, so this may be a little raspier than usual, but I wanted to reply to Dr. G Orland’s recent video about bishops in the early church and a controversy over the meaning of the did decay. So does the earliest Christian evidence disprove Catholicism on the papacy or does it actually disprove the belief many Protesta...

  • #220 5 Hilarious Ironies of Reformation Day - Joe Heschmeyer

    #220 5 Hilarious Ironies of Reformation Day - Joe Heschmeyer
    Oct 30 2025
    Joe highlights a few ironic things that some Protestants do when they celebrate Reformation Day. Transcript: Joe: What’s actually happening in the Reformation is no less dark. It’s still celebrating sin only. Now it’s the sin of schism. It’s less spooky maybe, but it’s not less sinful. Thesis number 25 says that the power which the Pope has in general over purgatory corresponds to the power which any bishop or curate has in a particular way in his own diocese. And per, I don’t know of a lot of Protestants who would agree with that. If you’re imagining ...

    #219 Catholic Apologist Confronts Fr. Moses - Joe Heschmeyer
    Oct 28 2025
    Fr. Moses McPherson, an Orthodox priest, had released a few videos explaining his problems with Catholicism. Joe gives his response. Transcript: Joe: Welcome back to Shameless Popery. I’m Joe Heschmeyer and one of you recently asked in the comments if I would respond to some attacks on the Catholic Church made by a Russian Orthodox priest in YouTuber. Father Moses McPherson. Now if you’ve never heard of him, father Moses is a Protestant convert to Eastern Orthodoxy. He was originally ordained as a priest of the Orthodox Church of America, but left that for some reason to become Rus...

  • #218 New Priests Are MORE ORTHODOX Than Ever, but there’s a catch… - Joe Heschmeyer

    #218 New Priests Are MORE ORTHODOX Than Ever, but there’s a catch… - Joe Heschmeyer
    Oct 23 2025
    A follow up to his video, “Why Liberal Catholicism Is Dying,” Joe examines the results to a follow up study on priests in America, which results show some good, some bad and some ugly. Transcript: Joe: They interviewed more than a thousand priests. It doesn’t appear they got anyone saying that they were extremely liberal. There is this sea change of orthodoxy coupled with compassion, but that’s the good news. Let’s talk about the bad news. The bad news is young priests are burning out. Welcome back to Shameless Popery. I’m Joe Heschmeyer, and today I want to...

  • #217 Responding to Gavin Ortlund’s “The Papacy is Not From God” - Joe Heschmeyer

    #217 Responding to Gavin Ortlund’s “The Papacy is Not From God” - Joe Heschmeyer
    Oct 21 2025
    Joe responds to some key points raised in Gavin’s video “The Papacy is Not From God.” Transcript: Joe: Welcome back to Shameless Popery. I’m Joe Heschmeyer and Dr. Gavin Ortlund just released a video titled The Papacy is Not From God that I think warrants a reply. Now, I should say at the outset, I respect the bluntness of his argument and I hope that he won’t be offended if I answer him in an equally straightforward manner. And second, I think he’s focused on exactly the right question. As I said in my book, Pope Peter, if the doctrine of the papacy is true...

    #216 Why Dilexi Te is an Awesome Document - Joe Heschmeyer
    Oct 16 2025
    Joe does a deep dive into Pope Leo’s first apostolic exhortation, Dilexi Te. Transcript: Joe: Welcome back to Shameless Popery, I’m Joe Heschmeyer and I want to share with you some of the things that struck me about Pope Leo’s new apostolic exportation, dilexi te. Now, I want to say a couple of things at the outset. First, a little bit about what the document is. Second, a little bit about what this is going to be. The first thing to know is that dilexi te is an apostolic exhortation. In other words, it’s not laying out church doctrine per se, the way a papal encyclical...

    #215 Is Pope Leo a Liberal? - Joe Heschmeyer
    Oct 14 2025
    Many of the faithful in the West are probably wondering whether or not Pope Leo is a liberal pope, given several recent headlines and the release of his first papal document Dilexi Te. Joe gives a thoughtful analysis on why this is the wrong way to look at it. Transcript: Joe: Welcome back to Shameless Popery. I’m Joe Heschmeyer and Pope Leo just released his first magisterial document, Dielexi Te, an exhortation on Christian Love for the poor. It’s beautiful, rich, filled with quotations from scripture and from the church fathers. And honestly, the 2000 year history of the church ...
