CHRISTUS VINCIT TV 6


Watch below, or download here. (7:21/5.8 MB)

We've been wanting to do a videocast for quite some time. After all, we haven't done one since February. However, my wife's digital camera went south (the lens stopped opening). So, Shamus O'Reilly offered to give us a hand - and what a hand!

Shamus discusses his new (used) weather machine (you'd have to go back to some very old CVA episodes to hear about his old snow machine), and has his own little version of Don't Do This at Church.
