After Producer Nick helps out with a few things, the gang’s all here and Father Anthony opens the show with how so many people are suffering through seasonal allergies this summer, and yes summer is here due to beautiful weather.  However, with allergies on the brain, Father Anthony talks about his recent dealings or feelings with seasonal allergies this year.  Father Anthony also shares with everyone his recent viewing of the movie Manchester By The Sea, talking about how it’s a very intense movie and dramatic too, talking about the film and how it affected him, so just a heads up if you haven’t seen the movie: SPOILER ALERT!  This relates to the feeling of defeat, being beaten (not in a physical sense), and/or loss due to how the movie deals with some feelings of defeat, which relates to us in real life.  He asks everyone on their feelings on the movie too.  However, Father Anthony brings up the tragic terror attacks that happened again in London over the weekend, relating the two things in terms of how and what society is like and what the world is like.  Also, with the talk of movies, it relates to how movies are different that years ago and how the experience is different, Gerri in mind shares on that.  This also raises up the notion that the violence is rising up more than usual, not just around the world, but here in some Chicago areas too.
