He and Jason discuss how the discipline required of a fighter carries into the spiritual life, the dangers of vice and addiction, and why learning to master yourself may be one of the most important fights a man ever faces. They also reflect on conversion, marriage, temptation, personal responsibility, and what it means to live the Catholic faith consistently when no one else is watching.
