About this Episode
Oscar Rivera welcomes Steve Beckholt—a devout Catholic, Fourth Degree Knight of Columbus, and Houston Texans “Ultimate Fan”—for a conversation that blends football passion with fearless faith. From praying the Rosary for strength to standing by a team through criticism, Steve draws powerful parallels between lifelong fandom and steadfast devotion. This episode challenges listeners to live their faith boldly, lead their families by example, and remain rooted in Christ even when the noise gets loud.
Steve Beckholt, also known as the “Ultimate Fan,” is a devoted longtime season-ticket member of the Houston Texans. Behind the mask, Beckholt is a champion for the community, particularly through his work with the Marfan Foundation, an organization dedicated to improving the lives of thousands of people living with the syndrome. He and his wife, Norah, regularly volunteer with the Marfan Foundation in support of their son, Hunter.
