What About It
Rosary Army was an organization dedicated to producing their own rosaries and giving them away for free and/or help people learn how to make one themselves. I like this idea. I’m not a Catholic, but that’s kind of cool. This podcast doesn’t really deal with those elements of the organization. Rather it’s just kind of a catch-all show about issues in the news related to Catholicism and what it’s like to live day to day as a Catholic. It’s pretty low-key and basically uninteresting in style or tone. Some of the issues they discuss are of interest, being issues related to morality and religion. But this one’s just pretty bland. Never obnoxious or stupid, just . . . kind of there.
1 ½ stars.
