Send Them Out, TWO by TWO | Sock Religious Founder, Scott Williams | Episode #031
The BeatiDudes proudly welcome a friend and sponsor, Scott Williams, from Catholic Concepts & Sock Religious. Scott traveled to Texas from Indianapolis to bring his stories, puns, and dreams of great Catholic concepts to come.
Scott is a ministry professional turned entrepreneur and the founder of the largest Catholic sock company in the world (probably). After working nearly a decade in full-time youth ministry, Scott turned a side hustle into a rapidly growing small business in a niche Catholic corner of the internet. If you asked Scott 10 years ago if he would be selling socks and other merchandise, he would have said you're crazy.
The Dudes start the show by reflecting on how Scott Williams and Sock Religious came into our lives, and the puns ensue. Scott goes on to talk about the original story of launching a sock company and their incredible debut at the 2017 National Catholic Youth Conference.
Scott judges the Dudes during Blessed are the Joke Makers as they take on the persona of “The One Upper” to answer the prompt, “what priests really want to talk about in their homilies.”
The second segment starts with an amazing story of the bus Scott and his friends purchased in college for $1200 that was converted into a recreational vehicle for traveling to concerts, football games, and other activities together.
This episode’s TBD Question – What would you create or build if money was not an object?
Reverse Simpsons – The Dudes take turns pitching Scott on new product lines for Catholic Creatives and some of these ideas are worth exploring!
Scott then wraps up the show by sharing the great news that starting in July of 2023, every sock produced by Sock Religious is American made in his factory in Indianapolis
