Carolina Catholic
The Carolina Catholic's show host and husband were featured in an interview by Amanda Green and published on WilmingtonFavs.com and in Sunday, May 6th's Wilmington Star News.
Carolina Catholic is a locally produced radio show which highlights what Catholics are doing in North Carolina and around the nation. In its monthly broadcast, the host of the show, Judi Paparozzi, interviews local Catholics, our diocesan leaders, and Catholic leaders around the nation to find out how they are living their faith. These Catholic men and women are doing the corporal and spiritual works of mercy that we are all called upon to do.
The shows on Carolina Catholic also tackle the tough issues facing us in our everyday lives such as being pro-life in a pro-choice world, local poverty and what we can do to help, converting to the Catholic faith, the African American Catholic, evangelizing in a non-Catholic area, and other challenging and exciting topics.
Carolina Catholic welcomes ideas for future shows from the show's listeners. Some of the most exciting shows include interviews with politicians like Congressman Chris Smith, State Senator Thom Goolsby, well known members of the clergy like Father Benedict Groeschel, Priests for Life National Director Father Frank Pavone, Father Larry Richards, and Fr. Dwight Longenecker, apologists Tim Staples and John Martignoni, and authors Immaculée Ilibagiza, Joseph Pearce, Greg and Lisa Popchak, Matthew Kelly, Pat McCaskey, and Dr. John Bergsma.
From its initial broadcast in July 2007 to the present, the show has featured many of our diocese clergy members including our bishop, His Excellency Michael F. Burbidge, Bishop of Raleigh, who graciously did five shows with Carolina Catholic. The show has featured Father Pat Keane, Father Ned Schlesinger, Cape Fear Dean, Padre Marcos Leon, Sister Isaac Koenig, SU, Father James Garneau, Father Dan Oschwald, Father Tony DeCandia, and other diocesan priests. Bishop Burbidge was also kind enough to speak with us about the Year for Priests and his first five years as our bishop.
Our show has also featured a story on the founders of Wilmington Catholic Radio (Bill Hamilton, Joe DeRobertis, and Jim Edens), as well as shows on pilgrimages to the shrines of Italy, the pro-life movement, home-schooling, the St. Patrick’s Day Parade, Marian apparitions, and conversion stories.
Carolina Catholic airs on the first two weekends of every month. The one-hour show is aired on the first Saturday of the month at 11 am, and it is rebroadcast on the first Sunday at 6 pm, and at the same times on the second Saturday and Sunday of every month.
Carolina Catholic is produced by the Paparozzi family (Mario Sr. is the recording engineer and Diana is the audio engineer) and the beautiful music heard each show is provided by the show's musical director, Barbara Gallagher.
