This episode kind of takes a resemblence to the Easter and Christmas specials that we posted in the past. We could subtitle this The Christ the King Special, or (since we also include Thanksgiving Day) The Last Week of Ordinary Time Special.  We also talk about Black Friday, and issue my annual compulsory Christmas Overkill Rant.

In What We Have Done, and In What We're Going to Do: Today's feature topic, as we showcase our music for Christ the King (with brass trio - thus the "going down with horns!") and Thanksgiving Day, and reveal what we're doing for the First Sunday of Advent (in addition to the New Translation, of course).

We managed to pull off a show in less than 40 minutes. Let's call this a pep talk of sorts. Why is that? Simple! The new translation of Holy Mass begins just ten days from today (today being XI-17-11, the day I'm uploading this podcast), and we at iSNARK! want to make sure you're as ready as humanly possible.  Of course, this doesn't go without a shameless plug from my own Holy Angels Mass.
Also: another update on my Psalm re-writes. 
Feasts for the Week: November 20-30.
