And then I left right before Simple Vials because I felt God was calling me to move in a different direction and to take take what I learned in that time and apply it to this, what I've been doing since.

It is actually, Tim, informed how I served as lieutenant governor, informed how I served as RNC chairman in a very political position, that part of my Christian values should direct and help me navigate through some very sticky political stuff. And it did. I have a whole different view of how I look at people.

I used to tell people after I cussed them out, I'd say, you know, this could have been a lot worse because I spent three years in a seminary. This went a lot better than it otherwise would have. They just look at me like, okay, whatever.

You know, you could have... It's been really painful, yeah. It's like, on your knees, all right, start praying. But yeah, man, it's a very important time for us. The church is going to go through a transition. You know, the who's in, who's out horse race of the election of the next pope is going to ensue after the funeral, if not before.

But I think the legacy of this pope is going to be a profound one. And given that he selected and put in place a significant majority of the cardinals who will be electing his successor, they're not going to necessarily look for a similar type or, you know, the next version of Francis. But I think some of the things that he, the qualities he led with, they're going to realize are important.

Look, you know, I always kind of marvel, and it's true, I guess, for a lot of folks who convert to a new faith, that they have a certain zeal about it, that those of us who were born into the faith, baptized in the faith at a young age, grew up with it. You know, that zeal is there.

When you think about the charities you give to, the people you support, the programs that you advocate for, putting your children in Catholic school, if that option's available.
