No Poo in My Hood!

Last updated on: March 17, 2011 at 6:58 am By Fr. Joseph Huneycutt

For those of you who are regulars to the Orthodixie Podcast, please forgive my recent absence and dearth of new episodes. I could offer multiple excuses but … The truth is: Ladies and Gentlemen, my microphone – “Big Mic” – took to cussing and, as you can imagine, this is not allowed on Ancient Faith Radio. So, obviously, I had to wait until I received a new microphone. What’s that you say? You don’t believe that a microphone can cuss?... Read more

You Had Me From … Ahoy!

Last updated on: March 10, 2011 at 8:50 am By Fr. Joseph Huneycutt

It was on this day in 1876 that Alexander Graham Bell made the first successful telephone call. Bell’s first successful telephone used a liquid transmitter: a diaphragm that caused a needle to vibrate in water, similar to the way sound waves vibrate in air. He spoke to his assistant, electrical designer Thomas Watson, who was in the next room. He said, “Mr. Watson — come here — I want to see you.” Later that day, he wrote an excited letter... Read more

It’s Beginning to Look A Lot Like LENT’S Here …

Last updated on: March 8, 2011 at 5:32 am By Fr. Joseph Huneycutt

The following helpful hints are excerpted from an email from Matushka Elizabeth Perdomo (with gratitude). After Forgiveness Sunday, which falls on March 6th this year, the Great Fast Begins. From Monday, March 7th until AFTER the midnight services for Holy Pascha, no meat or dairy or egg products are eaten. A strictly VEGAN diet is adopted by Orthodox Christians throughout the world.

I’m On The Tonight Show Again!

Last updated on: March 5, 2011 at 6:01 am By Fr. Joseph Huneycutt

With all the fanfare [last year] surrounding the return of Jay Leno to The Tonight Show – and earlier, the drama around hosts and ratings, I was remembering my own visit to The Tonight Show, as a member of the studio audience, back when Johnny Carson was host. I was a college kid selling Cable TV in Southern California – and a coworker’s mom just happened to be on the editorial staff of The Tonight Show. So, a friend and... Read more
