Mother Angelica of EWTN always used to say “put us between your gas and electric bill” when encouraging her viewers to consider a regular donation to what would become the largest Catholic television network.
At The Catholic Underground we’re supported by our listeners in a new era of The New Evangelization and so we ask you to put us between your Internet Service Provider bill and your sizeable gaming allowance!
We talk about the March For Life so the Mainstream Media doesn’t have to (don’t they?). Pope Benedict’s message for World Communications Day: Don’t say Anything. Ford brands itself as a consumer electronics company rather than a car company, will it work? More information comes to light for this year’s CatholiCon, as do our picks of the week!
In our first episode of the new year, we talk about digital strategies for the Catholic Church in the United States, Social Media as a possible Catholic Media killer, defense of life with dental floss, Film as a way to have “The Great Discussion”, and how to shore up weak faith….we’re looking at you Ireland! All this, a bit more, and our picks of the week!
