We are looking for a personable, outgoing, and authentic host to help launch a new Catholic podcast.
The vision for this podcast is simple: create a lighthearted, informal, and relatable look at Catholic life and religious vocations. We want to have conversations with Catholic priests, religious brothers and sisters, and others involved in the Church and show the people behind the vocation.
Religious life is often viewed as very formal or distant. We want to change that. The goal is to show that priests and religious men and women are regular people with personalities, interests, stories, humor, struggles, and experiences — people who have answered a great calling.
We want to get to know our guests beyond their title or vocation. What were they like as kids? What did they want to be when they grew up? What hobbies and interests do they have? When did they first feel called to religious life? What made them decide to pursue that calling? What was the transition like from everyday life into becoming a priest or religious? And what are the everyday challenges or struggles they experience in their vocation?
The conversations may touch on faith and serious topics, but we want the overall feel to remain relaxed, conversational, and sometimes funny. We want listeners to feel like they are getting to know a person rather than simply interviewing a priest or religious.
Ultimately, we hope to create a podcast that makes religious life more approachable and helps people see the humanity, personality, humor, and joy behind these incredible vocations.
