What a promising idea. I've often hoped that some Catholic entity would rise to the daily sophistication of National Public Radio (at least some of their programming some of the time). It would be very interesting if your team could regularly track Fresh Air, On Point, Forum, Market Place, Morning Edition and All Things Considered and take up where they often leave off with a deeper Catholic perspective on the issue at hand. NPR does a great job in so many cases of developing the dialogue on a pertinent issue, but often lets it just drop for lack of a deeper spiritual insight. You could call it All Things Considered and Then Some.......

Blessings,
