The Beauty of Tradition w/ His Eminence Raymond Cardinal Burke

I am an undergraduate studying music, and for our history requirements we had to learn chant, study the parts of the Mass, and learn religious polyphony up through the 16th century. I'm at a completely secular and very liberal university as well. My reaction was like what you discussed— "why did no one tell me about this, my beautiful Catholic heritage?!" I was astonished and overwhelmed with the richness of our tradition, and a bit angry that I'd never been taught about it before. Now I want to go into sacred music so I can help open that door for others. Edit: Wow I didn't know this was relatable to so many people haha. Thanks y'all

You gotta love that his eminence looks like he’s in a sauna.

Loved what the cardinal said about putting ourselves in God's presence before we start praying. I get terribly distracted during prayer and I've started doing this recently. It has helped. Specifically, I imagine Jesus physically walking into the room and sitting next to me. This seems to keep me more focused than just imagining myself in a general holy atmosphere, so to speak.

Cardinal Burke is so awesome! So relieved to hear him defending the truths in a very charitable and loving manner.

You don’t know how blessed I felt to be able to pray a Hail Mary along with his eminence. Beautiful stream. May the Lord bless and keep you both. 🌹🙏🏽❤️

As a fellow Australian, could you please interview cardinal Pell?

This is the most boomer camera angle/lighting I’ve ever seen. I love it

This is a man whose faith is not shaken by the current events. Praise be Jesus Christ.

As an Orthodox Christian, I can say that Cardinal Burke is a Catholic I respect for both his clear integrity and genuine piety.

My, my, what a truly Holy man. Matt you are being blessed with many graces. May the Holy Trinity continue to bless you and your family for your fortitude. Ne timeas.

I love Cardinal Burke..He is a great and holy man!..God bless and keep His Eminence.

What a great video, and great job with your communication with his eminence.

True gem and vessel in our Holy Catholic Church, Cardinal Burke. You bring sacred tradition and Scripture without watering down the truth. So many infiltrated modernists at the moment.

Excellent discussion, I appreciated the Cardinals wisdom and clarity

Wonderful interview...you are so respectful with Cardinal Burke. Appreciated you asking him tougher questions and his truthful answers. This was very good!

Did anyone else feel that hail Mary at the end? Powerful.

Thank you so much your Eminence! Thank you Matt Fradd! You both are in my prayers.

I love cardinal burke...he is so sincere and fathful to the traditions handed down to us God bless you now and for always. Yours Joseph, from ireland

Suggestion to Matt: get Peter Kwasniewski on the program to talk about the Latin liturgies, especially the Mass. He has been studying them for decades. Suggestion to everyone: dip into Kwasniewski's books - it's likely to turn into a long dip :)

I have the greatest respect for Cardinal Burke. He comes across as very prayerful and as someone who does his best to be humble. I pray that he can persevere to the end in these really tough times.
