Chris Hodapp Address Grand Masonic Day 2024

The Mystic Tye

Welcome to the Mystic Tye. A podcast for Freemasons. I am your host Troy Spreeuw.

This recording took place at Grand Masonic Day 2024 at the Agnes Street Masonic Centre on May 25th 2024. Brother Christopher Hodapp was the keynote speaker that day and he delivered a great presentation full of the candor and humour about our Gentle Craft that he is known for. Br. Hodapp was a gracious guest to our jurisdiction for several days and I was blessed to be able to spend so much time with this humble brother. I am now proud to be able to call him a friend as well as a brother.

Please note that this was recorded with nearly 100 people in attendance as well as broadcast through our zoom audience that afternoon. Apologies for any loss of sound quality as events such as this are organised to be attended live not recorded in a studio. Still, I am ecstatic that this turned out so well and expect my processing and mastering of it will increase the listening quality before release.

Stay tuned to our channel for a future episode where Br. Wes Regan and I provide a running commentary of this event. Also, watch for future episodes with recordings of the other four presentations from GMD2024.

Christopher L. Hodapp is the author of Freemasons For Dummies, the world's best-selling introduction to the Masonic fraternity. His blog of the same name is the most widely read source of current national and international news about Freemasonry. Check out his website for a full biography of his publications and accomplishments.
