We scrapped the idea of doing an audio podcast last week in favor of CVTV-2, our second videocast. This week, the audio podcast is back!

Feasts for the week: October 29-November 4.  For more information, see the New Advent Website.

CHRISTUS VINCIT TV 2

Sorry it's been so long since the last show. However, we did do some improving of the sound on this one. It actually lines up with the video now. That's because instead of using the camera audio, I used the audio from my trusty Olympus DS-30 recorder, then doctored it with Audacity before putting it together on ShowBiz.

Today we talk about the Extraordinary Form of the Mass that I played at St. Leo the Great Church in Pawtucket, RI.
We also play a (roughly) 90-second re-enactment of the 100th episode of Christus Vincit ANYWHERE! -- performed by squirrels!
