Welcome back to Fellowship. Episode 3 continues our adventure at the Conference of Grand Masters of North America, where Matt & Andrew are still stationed at their little table with microphones, doing our best impression of legitimate podcast professionals. For four days the conference gathered some of the sharpest Masonic minds from across the continent. And for reasons we still do not fully understand, many of them wandered over, sat down, and started talking with us. In this episode th...
Welcome back to Fellowship! Episode 2 finds your brosts Matt & Andrew still wandering the winding, slightly surreal pathways of the Conference of Grand Masters of North America. By now, the microphones feel less like equipment and more like enchanted artifacts we accidentally picked up after taking a wrong turn somewhere between registration and the really expensive hotel starbucks. The adventure continues. More conversations, more brilliant minds, and more moments where insight app...
Welcome back to Fellowship! Our brosts Matt & Andrew had the incredible opportunity to attend the Conference of Grand Masters of North America, where they were invited to set up a table and officially look like they knew what they were doing. For four very full days, they recorded interviews with fascinating Masons from all over the country. Some of the finest Masonic minds on the planet gather at this conference… and somehow, many of them got trapped at our table with microphones in fron...
Welcome back to fellowship. In this episode, Matt and Andrew tackle a deceptively simple question: Is the Fraternity losing its mystery? A conversation about photos in lodge unfolds into a deeper reflection on initiation, presence, and the unintended cost of constant visibility. You can describe a thunderstorm forever, but standing in one is different. Degrees are designed to be thunderstorms. Social media has a way of flattening thunderstorms into JPEGs. They explore how overexposure can dil...
Welcome back to fellowship! In this episode, the Brosts attempt to answer the philosophical question of what the Inner Temple is, how we build it, and what any of this has to do with pocket watches. Matt and Andrew wander through allegory, speculate wildly with minimal qualifications, and somehow connect temple-building to time itself. Is it deep? Maybe. Is it ridiculous? Absolutely. So prep for anything, because the Brosts are getting philosophical. Text us for ...
Welcome back to Fellowship! This time around, the brosts sit down with Worshipful Brother Frank McKenna from Lake Country Lodge #43 right here in the great cheese-filled land of Wisconsin. Frank’s lived a whole lotta Masonry and has stories, wisdom, and educational prowess. We chat about Freemasonry, philosophy, life, the universe, and possibly breakfast sausage. It’s deep, it’s fun, it’s Frank. So grab your apron, fire up that pod machine, and tune in for a good time with the man, the ...
Welcome back to Fellowship! On this episode, the Brosts are joined by Worshipful Brother John Pettigrew of James M. Hays Lodge No. 331. Naturally, the burning question had to be asked: what does the “M” stand for in James M. Hays? To many it remains a mystery… but rumors persist that it might stand for Muckle. We share fellowship with John and dive into his unique Masonic journey, a bit of good-natured lodge rivalry, and plenty more along the way. So grab a drink, get comfortable, and s...
Welcome back to fellowship! On this episode, the brosts are kicking it old school with Worshipful Brother Brian Byrd from The Old Fashion Masonic Podcast. We talk shop, swap stories, and uncover the sacred truth behind why there’s no “ED” in an Old Fashion. Plus plenty more spirited discussion along the way. So grab some whiskey. Add a little sugar. Dash those bitters. Splash some water, drop in the ice, and twist that orange peel. Because tonight… we’re having Old Fashions. Check out Brian o...
Welcome back to Fellowship & Welcome to Season 3! After a much-needed winter break filled with rest, snacks, and probably a few forgotten dues notices, the brosts are back and ready to kick off the new year. To start the season, we're joined by a familiar voice. It's our very first guest (S1E5) the one and only WB Jeff Thiele. He just wrapped up his second term in the East, a full 9 years after his first. He claims it was voluntary, but we have questions. Andrew is now the Worshipful Mast...
Welcome back to Fellowship! You're invited to the grand finale of Season 2 of Time for Fellowship, the podcast where good company, good conversation, and a touch of brotherly mischief are always on the menu. In this heartfelt and humorous wrap-up episode, our Brosts Matt and Andrew reflect on the journey through Season 2. They’ll share favorite moments, lessons, and take a moment to practice an attitude of gratitude as they look back on the year in honor of Thanksgiving. Grab your apron...
Welcome back to fellowship! In honor of Veterans Day, our hosts are joined by two phenomenal Brothers who have served both the country and the Craft. Worshipful Brother Jeremy Mathis from Waukesha Lodge and Brother Victor Magnus from Wautoma Lodge, both Army veterans, sit down with us to talk about the connection between military service and Freemasonry. We discuss the role of Masonic values in the lives of veterans, the unique contributions they bring to the Lodge, and the long-standing rel...
In this episode, our Brosts are joined by Right Worshipful Brother Chad Kopenski from Ohio, a Brother whose Masonic résumé reads like a legend. He is a Past Master of Paramuthia Lodge No. 25 and the Ohio Lodge of Research, a Past Worthy Patron of Athens Chapter OES, and a Past Treasurer of Amesville Lodge. He has also served as a District Education Officer, District Deputy Grand Master, founding member of the Grand Lodge Membership Committee, Chairman of the Grand Lodge Education Committee, a...
Welcome back to fellowship! On this epsiode the lads kick back and do what they do best: talk about life, brotherhood, and the beautifully chaotic journey. They touch on the joys and trials of parenting, the discipline of Jiu Jitsu, the wisdom of Freemasonry, and even a bit of dirty talk... in the garden, of course. This isn’t a deep dive into Masonic esoterica. It's more like a warm evening on the porch with two Brothers who know that sometimes the best light comes from good conversati...
Welcome back to Time for Fellowship! In this episode, our Brosts are joined by Worshipful Brother Napoleon Sneed-Janczak of West Allis Lodge No. 291 (and a few others—he gets around!). He is also one of the hosts of the Further Light Podcast! We dive into a rich discussion on Freemasonry, mentorship, and the role of education in shaping better Brothers and stronger lodges. Grab your coffee, square your apron, and join us for another enlightening conversation in the quarries of fellowship. Tex...
Welcome back to fellowship! What does it mean to live Masonry every day, not just on meeting night? Matt and Andrew talk about how the lessons of the Lodge shape our daily choices at work, at home, and in the community. They explore what the working tools look like in real life, how to stay balanced and kind in a noisy world, and why living Masonically is more about action than appearances. This episode is for Masons and non-Masons alike who want to understand how the Craft becomes a way of l...
Welcome back to Fellowship! In this episode, the Brosts tackle a thoughtful question submitted by Bro. Lee Monyelle: "How can we provide Masonic education in our Lodges that explains what Freemasonry is, while also honoring the diverse spiritual beliefs of our members — and doing so in a way that fosters unity rather than division?" This one turned out to be more challenging than we expected — but we gave it our best shot. Tune in as we walk the fine line between Light and belief, and try no...
Welcome back to Fellowship! Can you believe it? We’ve made it to Episode 100 of Time for Fellowship! What an unforgettable journey it’s been—full of laughs, insights, and more than a few questionable sound checks. In this milestone episode, our brosts take a walk (or maybe a clumsy shuffle) down memory lane, sharing clips from some of our earliest recordings and answering questions from you, our loyal listeners. It’s a nostalgic, laughter-packed rodeo of silliness, brotherly banter, and heart...
Welcome back to fellowship. Our brosts join the legendary 9 O’Clock Toast—a nightly online gathering of Masons from across Wisconsin and beyond. Born during the COVID-19 lockdowns as a way to keep the cement of brotherly love strong, this virtual meeting continues to this day, offering open fellowship from 9:00 PM… until the fellowship fades or someone finally says, “Alright, I really need to sleep.” Grab your beverage of choice, raise a glass, and join us in the spirit of fratern...
Welcome back to fellowship! On this episode, we sit down with Brother Raymond E. Foster to talk about his new book, The Temple Within. The book walks through the three degrees of Freemasonry and looks at how the symbols, stories, and teachings of the Craft still speak to us today. We chat with Raymond about his book, about masonry, and about the transformative nature of masonry. Whether you're a longtime Mason or just curious about the deeper side of the Craft, this is a great conversat...
