In this heartfelt and hilarious episode of The BeatiDudes, we welcome back Joseph Rodriguez—husband, father, pilgrim, and founder of Vocatio Travel. The Dudes pick up where they left off, diving deeper into Joseph’s family life, his journey through early fatherhood, and the holy (and often hilarious) chaos that comes with raising little saints-in-training.

From pandemic wedding plans and DIY honeymoons to balancing work and diaper duty, Joseph shares how he and his wife surrendered their family plans to God and found unexpected beauty in the mess. With two boys, a third child on the way, and a calling to bring families closer to God through pilgrimages, Joseph reflects on how justice, love, and humility are transforming his fatherhood one “toe knuckle” at a time.

This episode touches on:

• Parenting through a pilgrimage mindset
• Discipline vs. prideful correction
• What justice really means in the home
• Custom pilgrimages for kids based on their namesakes
• Irish toe knuckles, two birthdays, and other delightful detours

Join Paul Kolker, Nick Bezner, and Jeff Schiefelbein as they blend holy wisdom with belly laughs, bringing you another memorable episode for Christian men striving to live beatitude-fueled lives.
