In this minisode, we get a little holy and talk about saints and nuns. First, Cody plays a guessing game where Chris guesses saints’ patronages after being told of their lives. Then, Chris tells the tragic true account of a group of 16 Carmelite nuns who met a tragic end after refusing to denounce their faith during the French Revolution. Can you guess our next topic?
