    Interesting
    I really enjoy your podcast interviews with converts and reverts. Your name Cordial Catholic definitely fits you well. Some of your podcasts are very interesting and definitely thought provoking.

    Refreshing Catholic podcast!
    A friend recommended this podcast. It’s so refreshing to hear a conversational, friendly tone - relatable especially as a Catholic convert myself. So good!
  • Helping you out
    Informative but not entirely welcoming
    As a current, curious, non-denominational/protestant Christian, I have been listening to this podcast for a few months now. I have enjoyed quite a few episodes and have definitely learned a lot about the Catholic church; however, there have been a few times where Keith and/or his guests make negative comments about the viewpoints of different protestant denominations. I understand these differing values/beliefs do not align with theirs, but for a podcast made to help convert people to Catholicism, I find this extremely un-welcoming and disheartening. This makes it very difficult to feel open to learning from Catholics in person rather than online since I already feel like I would just be identified as "wrong" and can see how negatively any other Catholic would view my personal faith as is.

    Weird Host, Great Show
    I find Keith’s voice and tone a little odd but the show is actually very good. Very knowledgeable host, guests and good conversations without interrupting the guest but still keeping the guest on track.

    My new Go-To Podcast
    Keith, Love your podcast. I’m a new Catholic (after an amazing 14 year journey late in life - God was very patient with me!). Your guests are great, and your selective, very Cordial- dialogue with them makes their stories even better. Keep up the good work- I’m sure it’s not easy with your young family. You’re an inspiration to many of us listeners. Keep it Cordial! Dave

    Refreshingly Cordial
    After 15 years as a Calvinist, Reformed, non-denominational Protestant , I converted to Catholicism two years ago. I’ve been listening to this podcast for three years and I absolutely enjoy them. Coming from a venomous, divisive, anti-Catholic environment as I do, the host, his guests, and their approach to the subjects are refreshingly cordial while still being frank.

    One of my favorites
    Love this show!!! It’s refreshing to hear so many wonderful conversion stories and compels me to share my Catholic faith with my Protestant brothers and sisters
  • Jaquobb
    Breath of fresh air
    I’m so glad there is a Catholic podcast specifically dedicated to defending the faith in a loving matter. One of my biggest hurdles when converting from being Reformed was the difference in the culture. All the Reformed friends I had were passionate and kind people. I hadn’t had the same experience with Catholics I knew at the parish I was going to. So, a podcast like this is really refreshing. It also has great material!

    Great for those curious about the Catholic Faith with balance
    Who knew a podcast host could be engaging yet cordial? Long-time listener and this content helped our family as Protestants and Catholics. I don’t listen to every episode but he has many interesting guests and you avoid the sensationalism that many podcasts have these days to get more clicks or tickle the ears.

    Truly delightful
    I’m simply thankful for this show and everything Keith is doing. He’s making a difference and helping me on my journey to Catholicism.
  • BG 667
    Good for reverts too!
    Keith always has great content. A lot of the stories of his guests show Protestant conversion journeys. As a lukewarm cradle Catholic who reverted to orthodoxy, I still love the Protestant “war stories” and find them educational and relatable.

    Informative and enjoyable
    I love this Podcast! It has been a great help to me. I entered The Catholic Church at Easter vigil 2022. It is a blessing to have so many wonderful Catholic resources that lead us into the truth. This podcast is one of my favorites!

  • timwhiteatx
    Great show
    Packed with solid catholic content (especially for Protestant concerts) and good dose of Canadian humor.
  • kmjpmc
    Engaging show!
    KA Little is a role model for a host who is so supportive and generous to his guests. Having had his own conversion experience he can relate and share that. The big difference is that he allows some very long (and interesting) stories to be told without jumping in and talking over his guest. Cordial! 😊. I also enjoy his other apologists, authors…who bring another dimension to his show. Thanks KA for representing the faith so well!
  • kativdh
    Truly Cordial
    I really appreciate having cordial apologetics, rather than argumentative or off-putting. K. Albert Little does a great job of explaining the faith simply, without dumbing it down. Theologically rich but not too dense.
  • Handmaid of thr Lord
    Wonderful Content
    I really enjoy listening to the host’s journey to the Catholic faith through our the interviews he has. His humor is light and joyful. I also respect and appreciate that he is able to look at different viewpoints with respect and logic. Great content!!

  • Hrwitte
    Great for Catholic, too!
    As a cradle Catholic, I love hearing K. Albert Little’s perspective. It is so helps me understand my faith, delve back into Catholic history, and grow in faith, as well. He invites great speakers, and he has such a captivating and kind voice! I highly recommend this podcast!

    Great guests and I COMPLETELY LOVE that he allows the guest to speak! So many others interrupt, talk over and make it about themselves. Not Keith. This provides for an informative, and interesting podcast. Well worth your time. You will love it!
  • Gospel Simplicity
    Open, Honest, Refreshing
    As an Evangelical that’s passionate about healthy dialogue between Protestants and Catholics, this is a breath of fresh air.
  • qualifyingthecalled
    One of the best podcasts!
    I am a huge Catholic podcast person. And when I came across this one, I was obsessed! I listened to almost all of them. It has helped me(a cradle Catholic), learn so much more about my faith and how to defend it! Huge recommendation to any one simply wanting to understand the faith, regardless of denomination!
  • Buckethead1486
    Kudos! So glad I found this!
    Normally the most insufficient tool on an apologists tool belt. Is the canon of scripture. Most know enough to be able to fake their way through, but the guest in episode 62 gave one of the most interesting interviews I’ve ever heard on the topic. Thank you!
  • aallen554
    Cordial! ;-)
    Such an apt name. Charitable and truthful. Smart and thoughtful guest and hosts.

    Weekly food for the soul!
    I am a cradle Catholic and love this podcast! It is an integral part of my weekly listening! Mr. Little’s guests offer weekly food for the soul- reaffirming my faith and further educating across a wide variety of topics and issues. I have listened to several other Catholic podcasts and, in my opinion, The Cordial Catholic is the best! Compelling, entertaining, informative, uplifting- Thank you K. Albert Little for the tremendous work you are doing! God bless!

    Timely resource
    This podcast came out at the same time I began my journey home to the Catholic Church. It was helpful at every turn, especially for a Protestant convert like me.
  • terpshigy2
    Great show with loads of information
    I’m so glad I found this! Love the interviews and finding out someone else went thru the same journey I am on now!
  • Snapdragon956
    Good interviewer and great guests!
    This is a great show for learning more about the Catholic Faith from people who are well-versed in the faith. Little does a great job of interviewing his guests, making them comfortable, and asking perceptive questions that draw out interesting responses. This is especially helpful for people coming from an evangelical Protestant perspective, because of Little’s background, but it is an interesting listen for anyone wanting to know more about Catholicism. Well done! I look forward to more episodes!
  • Boger woger
    This Podcast is top notch!
    I have listened to many podcasts about Catholicism and this is my favorite! Keith interviews a variety of guests covering great topics. Check it out!!
  • ElnerZ
    One of the best Catholic podcasts!
    After being an evangelical Christian for 30 years, three years ago my husband and I returned to the Catholic Church. Since then, I have dillegently sought out quality Catholic teaching, podcasts, Bible studies, etc. The Cordial Catholic is one of the best podcasts I've come across! I love the caliber of guests K. Albert Little has chosen to feature. He is a fantastic host. He asks great questions, and then allows his guests to actually talk instead of interrupting them as some "hosts" do. I would recommend this podcast to anyone who wants to know more about the Truth and beauty of the Catholic Church. (P.S. Keith, you are a blessing! Thank you for sharing your journey to the Church, and starting your blog as well as this podcast! God bless you.)
  • None but you Lord
    Episode with Marcus Grodi
    I first saw you, Albert on The Journey Home and when I saw the promo for this pod cast I decided to join in. Excellent hour and a half! Thank you and I will start to follow your pod cast more closely.

    Simply Fantastic
    Little & his marvelous menagerie of big-name guests bring welcome doses of calm, charm, & cordiality to the fundamentals of the Christian faith in its fullest expression: Catholicism. In these coarse & superficial times, this is a delightful & most welcome change of pace. By all means, listen & subscribe to “The Cordial Catholic”!
