I'm Protestant myself, but recently I was perusing his books "How to destroy a Civilization" and "Catholics and Protestants: what we can learn from each other".

Kreeft's writings helped steer me away from protestantism, will always be grateful for that!

Absolutely my favorite philosopher (apologist) I love this man. What's even more fantastic, is that he has influenced my son to seek an education for the glory of Christ. My son will have his BA when he's 20. Dr. Kreeft is the motivation for that. He needs to be highlighted (guest) on every new apologist's KZread channel. And I'm a surfer too.

I had the pleasure of meeting Peter Kreeft a couple years ago at a pro life conference, really nice guy. When I first reverted back to Catholicism his book, Prayer for Beginners, was what started me on my journey to a deeper prayer life.

Dr. Kreeft is totally awesome! He came and gave a speech at our university not too long ago. We took him to BK, played chess with him (he whooped me twice in less than 5 minutes), and he told us he loved to surf. He also left his beanie with us on accident. Glad you had him on the show, keep the awesome guests/interviews coming, Matt! God Bless!

I love Peter Kreeft and have been listening to him for years. I just subscribed to Matt. I’m not sure why I’m sharing this...Thanks for this amazing guest Matt!

Wow, Peter Kreeft is a delightful person, full of life, joy, and wonder - like a child. I became a philosophy major after reading his Love is Stronger than Death. Such a profound little book from a profound soul. By the way, I downloaded both of your sponsor’s items - thank you for all you do.

What a wise man. Wonderful! Just a wonderful discussion!

Do two more hours.

Matt Fradd is such an incredible interviewer in that he is so open to allowing his guest to go wherever he likes and he just comes right along with him. There is never a dull moment and if there is an ever so slight lull, Matt jumps right in with his quick wit and consequently we are beneficiaries and can sit back and enjoy!! Thanks Matt!!

Excellent interview! At 82 he is so real, so sharp, so rational. Love his 45 page explanation on transubstantiation. Jesus Shock book.

I love the books of Dr. Kreeft. I write poetry, and wrote one based on one of Dr. Kreeft’s books which I found particularly touching.

I love you both... I love the Catholic atmosphere

"We are fools. We appreciate things only by contrast."

Amazing dialogue. Thank you. What joy Dr Kreeft has on his face!

This was refreshing after listening to the T. Gordon interview. Gordon honestly stressed me out but Kreeft reminded me of the joy of Catholicism and inspired me to pray the rosary after avoiding it for a couple of days.

miguel O Are you suggesting that people only disliked the Gordon interview because they can’t handle the truth? I disliked it because of his snide, repeated comments about chubby women and such. I didn’t get very far into the interview for that reason alone. When you insult someone’s appearance, the strength of your actual argument is easily overlooked. I sincerely hope that he doesn’t speak or think that way regularly and that he made errors in judgment that day.

A few months ago I wrote a reflection on Brave New World saying that's where we're headed. I cant believe it - Dr. Kreeft agrees!! A scary thought.

I love Peter Kreeft as much as Papa Benedict or CS Lewis ... I'm his biggest fangirl !

Listening 2 years later. PK is amazing and as always Matt does an amazing job with his interviewing. It's really like having the privilege of sitting in on a fabulous chat between 2 men who seem to have a lot of commonality. Love being able to listen as I go about my homemaking. Always so good to listen to honorable men. We need more men like these 2. I found myself wondering what Peter would say about the future at this point 2 years of the Plandemic

Ok, now you got my attention. Well done Matt, keep it going. I want Peter Kreeft to be my granddad or my teacher, i get so engaged when he talks..

Okay, y'all. What's your favorite Peter Kreeft quote? I'll start. "Our culture thinks the Church views sex the way airports view smoking: 'if you have to do it, at least do it in there.'"

Thank you, Matt!!! Peter Kreeft is terrific. Loved the interview. Was glued to the computer for the entire duration of your program. Did not mind doing so for over 2 hours. See if you can line up other superminds. Congratulations on your show.

I think my favorite part of this is finding out I have the same phone as Peter Kreeft.

That was delightful!!! Thank you both.

All the questions I would ask Peter Kreeft if I knew what I was talking about. Thank you!

I recently came back to the Catholic Church after attending non-denominational churches for several years, God used both of you to help with that! Peter Kreeft is one of my favorite writers, philosophers, and apologists, it was a joy listening to your delightful conversation with him!

By far, one of the best interviews I've ever seen on both sides. Matt you did a fabulous job here because you knew your guest so well and Dr. Keeft? Man. He's truly a brilliant and talented man. God bless you both. I was truly blessed having the opportunity to tune in. Nailed it at 41:22 when he speaks about prayer and the will.

A truly wonderful conversation. Loved it from start to finish!

Peter Kreeft is the best philosopher in the world! I wish there were more access to his works in Argentina. I´ve read a lot and I make my high school students read. They also love his writings!

That short story Kreeft mentioned is called 'The Ones Who Walk Away from Omelas' by Le Guin.

I thoroughly enjoyed this interview! Thank you for acknowledging and distinguishing the general, yet truthful difference between men and women. I'd love to meet Peter Kreeft at some point in my life. I wish I'd have been a student in his philosophy class on Augustine.

Awesome! You talked to Peter as I would like to and his willingness to go along with everything and provide his insight was excellent! Thank You. I've subscribed, and God Bless

"Yeah, but so is a washing machine!" LOL!

This interview was so refreshing and eye opening. Really well done Matt!

This has been one of the most helpful interviews I've watched. God bless the both of you.

What a treat, thank you!

This was a TREMENDOUS discussion between Matt and Peter. I learned a lot and appreciate both men's philosophy and knowledge.

Thanks!

I learned truths from this conversation that I had not heard before. Thank you.

Love Kreeft. I owe so much to his work

A gem of an interview. Thank you Matt. Love Peter Kreeft.

Thank you, Gentlemen. Fantastic conversation 🌹🌹🌹🌹

This interview was awesome, I find myself going back to it from time to time

We're so indebted to Dr. Kreeft. He came and gave a talk to 5 young adults starting a group in Boston. As we learned about his reputation, we became only more embarrassed at how few people we had back then. It grew up into a rather sizable group and learned a lot about the Lord's will and ministry in the church, but we still remain embarrassed about that first meeting.

I have a couple books by him, and I've seen a little of him on KZread and liked him...But now I really, really like him! Good interview, Matt Fradd!

Oh, what an amusing time I had with these two! Throughout my cooking and washing they kept me company with the most entertaining yet thought provoking exchange. It's my first exposure to this greatly-revered man Dr. Peter Kreeft. I found myself smiling and chuckling especially in the last half hour. 😄☺❤❤❤

Matt, this started out super weak. But as you said at the beginning, at about the 20 minute mark you turned a corner and it became one of my favorite interviews with one of my living Catholic heroes. Well done.

I so enjoy Dr Kreeft -- even more when I found out he at least thinks its possible that our pets end up in heaven with us. As he so eloquently puts it, "Why not?". Also, as an introvert myself who dreads small talk -- I consider it a part of Catholic charity and love of neighbor to make it as I notice it puts many at ease and it makes a small human connection if you cheerfully do it while waiting in line or with the clerk at a store. And as much as I want to hide away at parties, again, I can help others feel more comfortable if I can reach out to them and converse with them. So, as uncomfortable as I find it -- I see it as a charitable act.

Great discussion!!!

This was a fascinating discussion, I got so much from it, thank you for your ministry Matt, God bless you and your family!

Love the App Hallow and Love You And The Good Dr Peter Kreeft. Binge watch both of you Guys! Appreciate what y’all do for the Church. Ave Maria! Viva Cristo Rey! ❤️🙏🏻📿

Best interview yet!

Fantastic interview. Thanks

I love this car conversation . Do another one with Mr. Kreeft! God Bless you both! ❤️♥️❤️✝️✝️🙏🙏❤️♥️

Wonderful interview.

Thanks much for this video.

It's interesting to hear Dr. Kreeft's opinion of the future for the Church. It reminds me of the essay written by, at the time , Father Joseph Ratzinger.

This was my second view I, oh man I love this conversation! Matt Fradd and Peter Kreeft are such wonderful people

love this!!!!

25:35- Lord of the Rings 26:20- Brothers Karimozov 34:22- Vatican II 49:49- A Grief Observed (for widows) 1:23:02- Sts. Augustine & Aquinas 1:27:19- Pascal

My favorite books that I hope you read are The Chosen by a Chaim Potok, The Robe by Lloyd Douglas and Jane Eyre by Charlotte Brönte. They make the argument for patience with others who hurt you, which is an important part of being virtuous I think.

Confesó que fue el primer video que veo completo great work God bless use our bull s 💯🙏👏

Fabulous interview ❤️

Only 30 minutes in and loving it!

The story Kreeft is referencing is 'Those who walk away from Omelas'.

Test cricket is indeed wonderful.

Gorgeous show ✝️🙏🏼💓

Captivating interview. Love it

I love the new set! And the Australian flavour to it!

This is so true. 37:30 on. Absolutely love this interview

Thanks Matt for allowing God to demand of you do more extra...….. for His kingdom

Fantastic interview!!!

Love it!

Thank you

Dear Matt, Just wanted to point out how funny it is that you said that the Eastern Orthodox get angry when you nail things down. I was amused and I think Jesus would have been too. Best interview ever, will be watching this multiple times. We had puppies at my college when Trump got elected too, and one of my teachers paused opening class to ask if anyone needed to talk it out, "Are you okay? Does anyone need to talk?" So being sensitive and docile, I raised my hand and said I voted for Trump. I also hung out with the puppies, because they're the very best.

Omg. I so loved that 👌🌸

Super I love Peter Kreeft!

I have come to like more St Thomas because of your program.

I was raised Baptist/Alliance so learned from the King James Version Bible. I love the beauty of the language there. I read other translations but always return to the KJV.

Please ask Dr. Kreeft what his greatest insight with all his learning is. Or what his plans for the next book is.

Heads up, your full interviews are not popping up on my feed I only see the smaller clips.

I didn't think I could appreciate Dr. Peter Kreeft any more...until I heard him confess that he has a soft spot in his heart for farters...and the reason why!

This interview is so similar to the one you just recorded with him. Still good! Strangely similar

Wow Matt..I have been watching your more recent videos..with the beard! I have to say I prefer you without...you look years younger and you can see your handsome face! Also...I love Peter Kreeft! He does a great job explaining angels!

My father loved to say "That went over like a fart in church"

That happened to me with Fr. John Hardon

I didn’t have a near physical death experience but I mostly certainly did have a near spiritual death experience. I almost gave up on bothering with living. Not suicidal but I had nearly resigned to just putting head down and refusing to care anymore.
