Whether he’s trying to understand Old Margaret’s “usual” confession; parsing out how Tom can better help care for his wife’s pet pig, David; or getting to the bottom of the Christmas Eve Mass Incident, Forgive Me! explores the intertwined lives in Ben’s new community and the funny, sad, and sometimes painful experiences that come out of confession and the Catholic experience.Episode 1.01 The Simple Joy Of ItMargaret educates Father Ben on the unfamiliar and unorthodox concept of confessing “the usual.”Produced by Rogue Dialogue Productionshttps://roguedialogue.com/Written and directed by Jack Marone and Bob RaymondaCast:Casey Callaghan as Father BenAnn Sweet as MargaretSound design and score by Adam RaymondaLogo by Sam Twardy (www.samtwardy.com)Follow @ForgiveMeShow on Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram Find a transcript of the episode here.
