  • Understanding the Truth Behind the 1955 Holy Week Reform – The Catholic Mass #46

    Understanding the Truth Behind the 1955 Holy Week Reform – The Catholic Mass #46
    Sep 12 2025
    Today we’ll do a careful study of the 1955 reform. Fr. Palko explains what changed, why it changed, and whether these revisions were justified—or dangerous. From Palm Sunday to the Easter Vigil, we explore the reasons behind the time shifts, structure changes, and liturgical simplifications. Were these revisions paving the way for the Novus Ordo, or were they well-intentioned efforts to help the faithful participate more fully? We also examine the SSPX’s actual practice today, and whether using the 1956 rites is a compromise, a prudential choice, or a litmus test for tradition See all the episodes, and download resources: https://sspxpodcast.com/mass We’d love your feedback on this series! podcast@sspx.org – – – – – – View this episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/IYKvJ_xXoJM – – – – – – – The Society of Saint Pius X offers this series and all of its content free of charge.

  • Why the SSPX Uses the 1962 Missal – The Catholic Mass #45

    Why the SSPX Uses the 1962 Missal – The Catholic Mass #45
    Sep 5 2025
    Today in the Catholic Mass Series, we look at a question that sparks heated debate in traditional circles: Why does the SSPX use the 1962 Missal? Fr. Palko walks us through the history of liturgical change—from Quo Primum in 1570 to the turbulent 1960s—and explains the Society’s principled decision to adhere to the final pre–Novus Ordo edition. Along the way, we clarify myths about Quo Primum, address the role of Annibale Bugnini, and explore why change is not inherently bad—so long as it doesn’t endanger the Faith.

  • How the New Mass Changed the Church – and Us – The Catholic Mass #44

    How the New Mass Changed the Church – and Us – The Catholic Mass #44
    Aug 29 2025
    Today in the Catholic Mass Series, we turn to the real-world impact of the New Mass, including how it has shaped the Church, the faithful, and reverence for the sacred. Fr. Burfitt joins us to discuss the collapse in belief in the Real Presence, the rise of Eucharistic irreverence, and the fading understanding of the sacred and profane. Drawing on decades of pastoral experience and recent data, he outlines how changes in the liturgy led to a more horizontal, man-centered worship. He also explains why reclaiming the sacred is essential for spiritual renewal. This episode is a call to vigilance, virtue, and the rediscovery of Catholic Tradition.

  • Why does the New Mass Resemble Protestant Services? – The Catholic Mass #43

    Why does the New Mass Resemble Protestant Services? – The Catholic Mass #43
    Aug 25 2025
    Today we take a sobering look at the similarities between the New Mass and Protestant liturgies. Father explains how changes made by Luther and Cranmer in the 16th century—reducing the priesthood, eliminating sacrifice, and downplaying the Real Presence—are echoed in the Novus Ordo. We examine how a Mass shaped by ecumenism and a new theology ends up looking more like a Protestant service than the Traditional Latin Mass. This episode lays out the evidence, side-by-side, and asks: Can we worship like Protestants without thinking—and believing—like them?

  • 13% Survived: How the New Mass Rewrote Tradition – The Catholic Mass #42

    13% Survived: How the New Mass Rewrote Tradition – The Catholic Mass #42
    Aug 15 2025
    Today in the Catholic Mass Series, we examine the prayers of the New Mass—what was removed, what was changed, and what that reveals about the underlying theology which we discussed in the last two episodes. While the New Mass is valid, Fr. Paul Robinson explains why it is still spiritually dangerous. We look at how nearly all the traditional prayers were edited or eliminated and how this shift reflects a new view of sin, salvation, and man’s relationship with God. From loss of sacrificial language to silence on heresy and the souls in purgatory, this episode lays bare the core concerns.

  • The Paschal Mystery: Replacing the Cross – The Catholic Mass #41

    The Paschal Mystery: Replacing the Cross – The Catholic Mass #41
    Aug 9 2025
    Today we examine one of the most influential concepts behind the New Mass: the Paschal Mystery. What is it, and how does its reinterpretation affect our understanding of sin, redemption, and the very nature of the liturgy? Fr. Haynos explains how modern theologians shifted the focus of the Mass away from Christ’s sacrifice on the Cross to His Resurrection and Ascension. We’ll unpack how this change redefined sin, downplayed divine justice, and turned the Mass from a sacrifice of atonement into a celebratory meal. This episode reveals how small theological shifts led to a radically different liturgy.

  • Turning the Mass into a Time Machine – The Catholic Mass #40

    Turning the Mass into a Time Machine – The Catholic Mass #40
    Aug 1 2025
    Today we begin a deeper look at the New Mass—starting with its new theology. What is the “theology of mysteries” and why has it become so central to modern liturgical thinking? Fr. Leo Anthony Haynos explains how modernist thinkers, influenced by philosophical trends like Kantian idealism, began emphasizing experience over doctrine—shifting the Mass from a sacrificial act rooted in truth to a re-lived emotional event. This foundational shift helps explain many of the changes that followed. In this episode, we lay the groundwork for understanding the New Mass by examining the very ideas that reshaped it See all the episodes, and download resources: https://sspxpodcast.com/mass We’d love your feedback on this series! podcast@sspx.org – – – – – – View this episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/TV-ZKFEgKjA – – – – – – – The Society of Saint Pius X offers this series and all of its content free of charge.
