Greg and Jennifer Willits from Rosary Army, SQPN and That Catholic Show are going to have a daily 3 hour show on Sirius Satellite Radio beginning in September. They will be continuing with the Rosary Army Podcast once a week but due to the Sirius deal and Jennifer’s pregnancy, That Catholic Show is on hiatus for now.

Congratulations to a couple of fantastic podcasters done good.

Maria Johnson has a wonderful blog called A Cup of Coffee and a Random Thought. She is also a novelist, one of the principal writers of That Catholic Show and has a regular column called Monday Musings on the Rosary Army website.

So far I’ve only had a couple responses.

While we’re on the topic of blatant self promotion, I’m in the Catholic Blog Carnival again this week. This week, the host is Father V at Adam’s Ale . And it’s still not too late to nominate me for Best New Blog at the 2008 Catholic Blog Awards.
