#45 The Protestant Dilemma: Verbal Inspiration and Sola Scriptura - Karlo Broussard 16.09.2026Can Protestants prove verbal inspiration from Scripture alone? In this episode, I examine the biblical case for the Protestant claim that apostolic authorship guarantees verbal inspiration—and argue that the case ultimately falls short without appealing to Sacred Tradition. -
#43 Are Catholics Being Consistent in Their Interpretation of John 6? - Karlo Broussard 02.09.2026Transcript: Believers in the Real Presence argue that in John chapter 6, Jesus clearly intends his audience to take him literally when he commands to “eat his flesh” and “drink his blood.” In other words, this isn’t poetic imagery, this isn’t figurative speech, and this isn’t Jesus speaking in metaphors the way he sometimes does elsewhere. The claim is that Jesus really means what he says here. But some Protestants push back and say, “Hold on—you Catholics (or any believer in the Real Presence for that matter) aren’t being consistent.” After all, in the very same Gospel of John, Jes... -
#42 Is Our Justification Rooted in Interior Righteousness? Romans Has the Answer! - Karlo Broussard 26.08.2026One of the big issues that divides Catholics and some Protestants is how we understand justification. Catholics believe we stand just before God on account of an interior state of holiness—called sanctification—that God brings about within us. Protestants of the Reformed Tradition, however, deny this teaching and argue that we are just before God solely because he declares us just on account of account of the imputed righteousness of Christ. -
#041 “Eternal Life” Means Forever Saved… Right? - Karlo Broussard 19.08.2026Jesus says in John 5:24 that those who believe already have eternal life. Does that mean once we're saved, we're always saved? In this episode, I explain why that conclusion doesn’t follow and how understanding what Jesus means by “eternal life” helps clarify the issue. -
#040 Are Catholics STILL Wrong About Paul’s Traditions? - Karlo Broussard 13.08.2026Karlo Broussard responds to James White’s claim that the oral traditions in 2 Thessalonians 2:15 were a closed body of revelation identical to Scripture. -
#39 God: A Creator of Evil? - Karlo Broussard 05.08.2026Transcript: If God created everything and evil exists, does that mean God created evil? In this episode, I unpack at least one version of the problem of evil and show how understanding evil as a privation resolves the apparent conflict with God’s goodness and creative power. If God is the Creator of everything—as classical theists claim—and evil exists…then doesn’t that make God the creator of evil too? And if that’s true, then God wouldn’t be all-good. At first glance, that sounds like a serious problem for theism. But is it really? Stick around, because I think there’s a way... -
#038 Do Catholics Get Paul Wrong on Traditions? - Karlo Broussard 29.07.2026Is the tradition in 2 Thessalonians 2:15 more than the written gospel? Karlo Broussard answers James White’s objections to Sacred Tradition. -
#037 James on Abraham’s Justification—Are Catholics Missing the Whole Point? - Karlo Broussard 23.07.2026Do Catholics misread James 2:24 when it says we’re “justified by works and not by faith alone”? In this episode, Karlo Broussard examines arguments from R. C. Sproul and show why James’s teaching about Abraham actually fits the Catholic understanding of justification. -
#036 The Hidden Enemy of Science - Karlo Broussard 16.07.2026Could a worldview that praises science actually destroy the foundations of science? In this episode, Karlo Broussard explains why scientism—the belief that science is the only source of real knowledge—ends up undermining rational inquiry, the human mind, and even science itself. -
#035 Tradition and Scripture: Meeting the “Identity” Challenge - Karlo Broussard 08.07.2026Karlo Broussard argues that the New Testament presents divine revelation as both Sacred Scripture and Sacred Tradition, undermining the claim that all apostolic teaching was later preserved in Scripture alone. -
#034 Yet Another Abomination in the Catholic Mass? - Karlo Broussard 02.07.2026This episode examines whether the Catholic Mass’s use of wine is contrary to the Bible and explains why Christians need not view drinking wine as an abomination. -
#033 Did Jesus Really Give Sight to the Blind? - Karlo Broussard 24.06.2026This episode examines whether Jesus’ reported healings of the blind are historically reliable evidence that he was the promised Messiah and Son of God. -
#032 THIS Argument Proves Sola Scriptura False - Karlo Broussard 17.06.2026This episode examines whether Christ established an infallible teaching authority beyond the apostles, challenging the doctrine of sola scriptura through Scripture and early Church evidence. -
#030 Does Scripture Alone Really Suffice? Responding to Wes Huff’s Argument - Karlo Broussard 03.06.2026Wes Huff recently argued that Scripture is sufficient because it alone is the “speech of God.” In this episode, Karlo examines his argument step-by-step and explain why it ultimately fails. -
#29 Is Religious Belief a Cop Out? Debunking the ‘Thinking is Hard’ Claim - Karlo Broussard 27.05.2026Is religious belief really just a “cop-out” for people who don’t want to think? In this episode, I respond to the popular atheist slogan “Religion… because thinking is hard” by exploring what belief actually is and that Christian belief does involve careful, hard intellectual work. -
#28 Why a Bible Christian Should Believe Mary as Mother of God - Karlo Broussard 20.05.2026Is calling Mary the Mother of God biblical? This episode explores key passages like Luke 1:43 and Galatians 4:4, along with early Christian testimony and even Reformers like Martin Luther and John Calvin, to show why this ancient title flows directly from Scripture and historic Christian belief. TRANSCRIPT: The Council of Ephesus in A.D. 431 declared Mary to be the Theotokos—the God-bearer. In other words, it proclaimed Mary to be the Mother of God. But should a Bible Christian believe that? Is there any evidence from Scripture that Mary is the Mother of God? Stick around—and you’ll find out. ... -
#027 Evangelization, the Papacy, and My Journey of Faith (Interview) - Karlo Broussard 18.05.2026In this episode of Dr. Karlo, Karlo Broussard reflects on his journey from Cajun musician to Catholic apologist while discussing evangelization, the papacy, Protestantism, philosophy, and the intellectual coherence of the Catholic faith. -

#025 Chance or Design? The Truth Behind Evolution - Karlo Broussard 06.05.2026In this episode, Karlo Broussard responds to thinkers like Richard Dawkins and Christopher Hitchens, challenging the claim that evolution’s randomness eliminates the need for God by showing that chance actually presupposes an underlying order or design. Drawing on classical philosophy and Thomas Aquinas, I argue that evolutionary processes can fit within divine providence, rather than undermine it. -
#024 The Sight of Men or God? What James Meant by Justification - Karlo Broussard 29.04.2026Is James 2:24 about being justified before God—or just in the sight of others? In this episode, I break down key Protestant objections and show why James’s teaching on faith and works points to a real, grace-enabled justification before God, not mere human vindication.
