(http://www.cc.ductapeguy.net/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/AJ_priest.png)Shownotes for CatholicRoundup 84: 1)  Deacon Tom from Catholic Vitamins (http://catholicvitamins.com), Bob D'Aurellio from the Paulsmen Podcast (paulsmen.blogspot.com) and I have been exploring the idea of forming some kind of  association or network of Catholic podcasters for mutual support and promotion.  We are looking for interested Catholic podcasters who are willing to assist in developing this idea. 2)  I'm experimenting with the format of having longer samples from other podcasts the Catholic Roundup podcast. The idea is to get 10 minute representative samples to feature the best from other Catholic Podcasts.  I feel that this could allow people to really get a sense of the 'flavour' of a particular podcast.  If you would like to me a featured podcast on the Catholic Roundup, you can a 10 minute 'distilled version' of your podcast to catholicroundup@gmail.com .  I may also feature clips that I get myself from other Catholic podcasts.    The first 10 minute feature podcast is from the Paulsmen Podcast (paulsmen.blogspot.com) Episode 118 featuring Bob D'Aurellio. 3)  Flowing from this featured podcast idea, I'm monkeying with the idea of "sampler CDs" of Catholic podcasts where I would ask 4 or 5 podcasters for 10 minute 'sample podcasts' of their shows and put them together interspersed with contemporary Catholic music etc...   How we would use these samplers, get them produced, and distribute them is completely up in the air.  It could be as simple as posting the mp3 online together with the cover art and asking people to download them and burn CDs for their friends and family.  Or we could investigate other ways of distributing them.  I am open to discussion on whether this is a good idea. 4)  With the New English Translation of the mass coming this year I am going to start producing short 2 to 4 minute Audio Reflections including links and resources to help people educate themselves for the new translation.  If you would like to feature these reflections on your own podcast, email me at catholicroundup@gmail.com and I will send you them as I produce them.  I plan to start producing these 3 minute features in July. Here is the text of my first feature on the new mass: Hello I’m Sean McGaughey from the Catholic Roundup Podcast at CatholicRoundup.com. This weekend, my family experienced a profound supernatural event that transformed the entire world.  No-- it wasn’t the rapture.  On Sunday morning, after a nice breakfast and walk along the waterfront in our hometown, we went to our parish church for the Sunday 11am mass.  I know what you are thinking.  “So what?  How is going to mass a supernatural event?  There are masses every day in every parish around the world.”   We have become so accustomed to having Sunday mass as part of our weekly routines, that we forget that at each mass we experience the suffering, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ to redeem the world.  Celebration of the mass is a central element of our Catholic faith.  Yet we too often take it for granted. This Sunday, the mass held a special significance for our parish.  About four years ago, a seminarian named Russell spent a pastoral year in our parish, working with our youth, and ministering to the sick in hospital and in nursing homes, while he was discerning his call to the priesthood.  Last weekend, Father Russell was ordained to the priesthood.  This Sunday, he chose to celebrate his first Sunday mass at our church with our parish community.  As this was his first mass, every word, every element of the mass seemed drenched with import and symbolism.  There was a giddy feeling of joy in the congregation throughout the celebration of the mass. This joy continued afterwards in the church basement where we had a very successful reception and luncheon.  For about 90 minutes, Sean McGaughey no 36:43 http://www.cc.ductapeguy.net/2011/05/07/catholic-roundup-93-with-craig-berry/ http://www.cc.ductapeguy.net/2011/05/07/catholic-roundup-93-with-craig-berry/#comments Sun, 08 May 2011 01:37:48 +0000 Sean http://www.cc.ductapeguy.net/?p=1673 Read the Rest...
