St. Valentine is perhaps one of the most widely-recognized Catholic saints in the world, but there's actually not a lot we can say about him with certainty. At least two churches in Italy claim to house his mortal remains, but many details about his life seem to have been lost to time.

This week on the podcast, we'll talk to a historical expert about the real St. Valentine and how we can learn from his example of selfless love today.
