Catholics Rock!

Do you love movies and TV shows? Are you a gamer? Do you have an MP3 player or an iPod? If your answer is at least 2 "yes" for the three questions, then maybe what I'm about to say will interest you. Have you heard of podcasting? I mentioned this in a previous post; I am so totally hooked with this latest revolution in the Internet world, as well as in the media industry.

You need not be a Catholic or a devout one to enjoy the podcasts offered by the Star Quest Podcast Network. I listen to the Daily Breakfast everyday on my way to work. Fr. Roderick touches on the latest current events, movies, TV shows, games, and yes, there's the Peculiar Bunch section, wherein he discusses some things Catholic that may boggle the mind of others. The Catholic Insider, which Fr. Roderick started last year, is now more concentrated on the sound-seeing tours. And, of course, there's the Secret Series: Harry Potter, Narnia and Star Wars; these series delve into the origins of the literature and find their relation to a Christian life. I subscribe to all these podcasts and even the PrayStation Portable.

Incidentally, Catholic Insider is celebrating its first year anniversary of podcasting.
