In this bold and revealing episode, Mary Flynn O’Neill — a seasoned forensic auditor — sits down with Father Andre to expose the inner workings of corruption she witnessed firsthand within the Catholic Church. During her time in the Diocese of Providence under Bishop Tobin, Mary uncovered financial misconduct and the presence of homosexual priests living in rectories — findings that led to deep personal and spiritual challenges.

The conversation explores broader Church scandals involving Cardinal McCarrick, Archbishop Viganò, and the Vatican’s restrictions on the Traditional Latin Mass, while also addressing global issues like the persecution of Christians in Gaza and Syria and the plight of unaccompanied migrant children (UACs).

Mary opens up about the isolation she faced during the COVID-19 pandemic and the lack of support from Church leadership — a trial that deepened her commitment to her faith and the mission of the laity in restoring the Church. Referencing Pope Benedict XVI’s vision of a smaller but purer Church, she calls for financial transparency, moral reform, and a return to spiritual integrity.

She also shares a heartfelt hymn and reflects on America’s Biblical foundation and spiritual destiny.
