The Sixth Hour Program No. 559













Tonight is part two of this oasis from the trials and tribulations of the world. You've heard it all before, and yet it is as fresh and new as when Our Lord first uttered these words to those who flocked to see and hear him. Once again, you get to join this crowd, although in our world today, the crowd has gotten rather sparse. There is no one in history who can compare to Jesus. He is both the most adored and reviled man who ever walked the face of the earth. And the emotions he created 2000 years ago are still as vibrant and as raw as if it was but yesterday that he walked the dusty roads of ancient Palestine, proclaiming a kingdom that is both within you and yet to be realized. In the end He is either your king or He is not and there is no middle ground. If He is, then His challenge to you is to leave the dead to bury the dead, sell all you have and give it to the poor, and knock, for door will be opened to you. And take heart, for if it is so that it is he who endures to the end who is saved, then here are the words that will both show you the way and fortify you on your journey. In the end it's up to you to follow whomever you want and to do so for whatever reason you choose. But only here will you find the words of eternal life, and it seems you at least owe it to yourself to give them a listen.

If we were to boil our message down to it's barest essential, it would be to simply imitate the Blessed Mother at the wedding feast at Cana and simply tell you to "Do whatever He tells you." No better advice exists in heaven nor upon the earth. So, consider it done. Over the next two nights, we present The Commands of Jesus, beautifully read, and with gentle Near Eastern music as a backdrop. Amazing, isn't it, that after two millennia, the Master's words still ring as fresh and true as ever? And every time you hear them you hear something you somehow overlooked before. Truly these are the words of eternal life, the Holy Eucharist Himself preserved for us in print, and all we have to do to partake is read. And tonight and tomorrow night, His yoke is even easier, and His burden even lighter, for all one has to do is listen. If at first you hear His voice, harden not your heart, for it is here where these words will speak to you. And getting to know Him intimately in Scripture is the first step in getting to known Him intimately in all that you do. The producer of this remarkable work simply goes by "No Greater Love," and that is surely appropriate for what follows here this night, and on the even of the morrow.

What little we know about the reality we live in has expanded so much over the past century that we shouldn't wonder that science can't keep up with itself. And perhaps what we should find most sobering is that science at this level doesn't seek to prove or disprove the existence of God, but merely provide a rationale for understanding whatever He might be. Clearly, such a creation as this didn't stumble into existence by itself or by accident, and the grandeur of all you see being accomplished by dust illuminated, animated, and driven by an infinitely nuanced source of energy that is both omnipresent, and imperceptible, really does just cinch the argument, doesn't it? Imagine what humanity could have accomplished by acknowledging and working with such a Creator. This is so obvious that it really does demonstrate that we are under the spell of something that is both greater than ourselves and nefarious, cold and evil. And as this brief, passing moment at the end of our history affords us this one last, fleeting glance at such deeper realities hidden but now revealed, the rubble beneath our feet tells us that we are at that point at which previous humanity has always failed. Our souls are saved individually, so what befalls this world collectively is of little consequence to us once beyond it. Yet, while here, there is something deep within us that longs to reach out to God collectively, repent as a people and of our own accord, and finally beat the devil rather than succumb to him. Just once it would be nice to leave this multiverse with our heads high and victorious, and so enter the next triumphant. And so it is, to this end, we pray.

Our own Miss Sally has gone in quest of today's American woman, has taken her pulse, and has returned with this remarkable report that is, perhaps, one of the most quietly disturbing pieces we've ever presented. This is girl talk in the 21st century, and it's a far cry from Grandma gossiping with the ladies at church about the butcher putting his thumb on the scale.  Today, "church" is out at Mt. Shasta at night, seeking that elusive spiritual link with Big Foot, and that close encounter of the fifth kind that gets one a book deal and a choice speaking spot at the next UFO MegaCon. In the late 20th century, everyone was accorded a mythical 15 minutes of fame, and with the vastly expanded media opportunities of our day, that means everybody now has their own TV show, radio program, or podcast. What the hell, ourselves included. These gals are Jessica Jones, the "Cryptid Huntress," and Tonia Braddock, the "Existential Empath." Tonia is the guest on Jessica's show tonight, and that's where this bizarre conversation begins. From there, it is truly "Off the Trails" and off the rails, as these girls chat about all of the paranormal dark stuff they do as if it was perfectly normal to be out in the middle of the night, encountering aliens, and being chased by Sasquatch disguised as deer. You probably think I made that last part up. Well, you'll just have to listen and hear it for yourself. Like Sally says, "We're not in Kansas, anymore! Not even in Kansas!"

Pope John Paul I died of an unexpected heart attack just like Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone, and from the time David Yallop published In God's Name forward to the present, thinking people have understood that this is very much the same kind of intrigue as the JFK assassination. You can be pope and utter all kinds of blasphemies, as the current example demonstrates on a daily basis, but if you suggest really reforming the Vatican Bank, such heresy will result in a digitalis cocktail before bed, and preparations for a new conclave in the morning. If you haven't heard this shocking story before, tonight's program will bring you up to speed, as we join Dave Emory and Nip Tuck for this salty morsel of Catholic Pirate Radio from back in 1986. As they read excerpts and discuss Yallop's blockbuster best seller from another time, we realize that stories this sordid always seem fresh and new.  And, since this time, the brood of vipers that run the IOR have continued to shovel money out the back door of the Vatican until there is nothing left. In fact, there is a deficit of $800,000,000. If you thought stealing Peter's Pence was despicable, this was the mere pocketing of the loose change compared to the real thievery. In today's Church they look with utter disdain and contempt upon that fool Judas Iscariot. The Princes of the Church in our day would have demanded, and received, way more than 30 lousy pieces of silver. That just makes the LORD look cheap.

Roberto Calvi. Did he die at the hands of the Mafia or did his intricate web of deception and conspiracy, involving the P2 masonic lodge, finally catch up with him? And what was his actual connection with Archbishop Paul Marcinkus? The intrigues of the Catholic Church in the 1970's and 80's are both jaw dropping and an imperative to understanding the rapid degradation of this institution over the last two generations. Mind you, the Catholic Church doesn't consider 500 years a particularly long period of time in the larger scheme of things, and, in reality, it's not. So perhaps we should take notice when things start running amok and do so this quickly. Calvi was done in back in 1982, and it's almost as if his murder was the other shoe to drop, as in off the Blackfriars Bridge, in the affair surrounding the suspicious death of Pope John Paul I in 1978. We'll get to that tomorrow night, and you'll find having this knowledge in your back pocket useful then, as you'll see how it all fits together. As for tonight, relax and enjoy this Ian Hitchings documentary, especially the part in which he stalks Archbishop Marcinkus at his Arizona country club, and then hides out by his swimming pool. It's Catholic Pirate Radio just the way you like it, and only here on RNJ!

With all of the talk of nuclear war being bandied about, we thought it wise to remind everyone of what the aftermath of such a conflagration would be like. After the fun and excitement of all the nuking comes the dreaded "nuclear winter" that will surely make the political and military folks wonder if all of the carnage and destruction was really worth it. Of course, they'll be pondering this from the comfort of their bunkers and deep underground bases, while it will be the rest of us, those few who survive that is, who will be tasked with dealing with all of this horror at street level. Perhaps that's why our self appointed betters have become so cavalier with their threats. Everything looks a lot different when you're the one making the mess but not the one cleaning it up. And there really isn't any clean-up to a mess of this magnitude, save eons of time with little or no human influence. And none of this considers the spiritual consequences. God set us up on this Eden like planet, told us all we had to do was take care of it, respect Him and each other, and our time here would be idyllic. Instead, He's about to return after that little "misunderstanding" at the cross to find a planet reduced to ash and cinders by the descendants of the same folks who crucified Him. And while Doomsday is surely bad enough, it pales in comparison to the Judgment Day which follows it.

When it comes to the apocalypse we're staring right in the face, it's really a matter of "deja vu all over again," as Yogi used to say. Mass extinction events apparently are nothing new to planet earth, and the only reason humanity hasn't realized this before now is because we are. New that is. Relatively speaking. At least that's the premise of this politically and scientifically correct Spark documentary that we present for your perusal tonight. These folks sound mighty sure of what they're talking about, but keep in mind that this is all theory and conjecture based upon the scientific analysis of all of the rubbish that lies buried everywhere on this planet. Think about it! If everything and everyone who has gone before us weren't lying in the earth beneath our feet, then we wouldn't be here, now would we? This is why scientists need historians to point out the difference between history and prehistory, because to hear the science types, you'd think this was all stuff they know for sure like they saw it happen. Not like that even means anything, really, since the history types are arguing about events from last week that they actually did see happen. And the same folks who describe in detail catastrophes from hundreds of millions of years ago are also the ones who say the "catastrophism" of Immanuel Velikovsky is "pseudohistorical." There's a real reason why we know so little of the past. And what we do know suggests that we are in a race to see if God will manage to destroy the earth before man beats Him to it. We're betting it's a tie. And so that's the perspective we bring you from here, for lack of any better options.

Well! It seems that posting this program here was more work than producing it! As you know, we like to provide you with links here to the original work we use in our programming, but from the time we produced this program to it's air date the original material that we used to make our production vanished from the internet. It originally came from Anonymous Official in the form of this neatly edited version of the much longer documentary Third Eye Spies, but, within a week, it had gone Elvis from their Youtube channel for whatever reason these things happen. So, after thoroughly searching through our browser history to determine that we weren't the ones who were crazy (at least not concerning this), we decided to go with a link to the uncut version of Third Eye Spies, which runs nearly twice as long as the edited version you'll hear on our program tonight. All of that before we even begin to tell you that Third Eye Spies is the story of remote viewing as seen threw the thick lenses of Dr. Russell Targ, a physicist who began moonlighting in psychic research and the rest is, as they say, history -- a fascinating history you'll hear tonight in the form of this RNJ News Special.

Living in the future isn't all it's cracked up to be once you realize all the high technology is for the purpose of enslaving and/or eliminating you. And what better way to keep the sheep docile on their way to the slaughter than to give each one a little super computer full of lies and amusements, and all the while posing as a harmless telephone? These do-it-yourself phone zombies are perhaps even more frightening than the classic "Night of the Living Dead" variety that the medical establishment is currently turning out with their vaccine regimen. They're the ones who have made it possible for the zombies in DC to seize control of the government, and if you think that's hyperbole, just take a look at Biden and Pelosi and tell me that's not the "living dead" personified. It explains a lot, actually, since normal human beings would never sell their fellow countrymen out like that. Maybe it's just easier to submit to the rule of artificial intelligence when you realize that the human leaders you've been saddled with really don't have much of the native variety at all. It's been destroyed along with their morals, judgment and character. In the end it isn't the technology of the future that's scary, it's the folks who run it (and, in turn, us). In light of such a future, the final lesson learned may just be that there are actually fates worse than the apocalypse. And, as all of our other blessings run out, at least we can still count that one.

No Countdown to Apocalypse would be complete without a visit to the Hopi Elders to seek their wisdom concerning the "End of the Fourth World." That's what they call the Apocalypse, and they call it big. A mass extinction event already in progress, with the real fireworks about to begin in the form of the titular Blue Star event. Asteroids crash and burn, and it all goes up in flames before the few survivors eventually come together and form a new people and life starts over again, albeit more humbly, though surely with all the dancing, drumming and chanting restored. Sometimes it almost seems as if there was some sort of contest among the ancient peoples to see who could come up with the most devastating end time scenario, and if this was so, the Hopis would certainly be a finalist for the grand prize in the "Devastating Firestorm" category. The heavens tremble, the earth quakes, the volcanoes erupt, and the inhabitants of planet earth die in the process. So much so that it makes one wonder just how it is that even these scant survivors survive something so completely and wondrously destructive. And don't let the survivalists interviewed fool you into believing that you won't make it without guns and gold. It's the guns and gold that get us into these apocalyptic messes, not out of them.

Onward towards the Apocalypse! And who better to guide the way tonight but none other than that all purpose seer of seers, Nostradamus? We learn that he started out life Jewish and was forced to convert to Catholicism as a child and it left him embittered. Sounds like Catholic faith formation back in the 16th century wasn't any better than what they offer in some of these "Nouvelle Théologie" parishes today. But for a Baltimore Catechism the world might well have been spared a false prophet, and heaven blessed with yet another saintly seer, but, alas, it wasn't meant to be. Poor Nostradamus. He could see history before it happened, and all the way to the end of world, yet he couldn't save himself or anybody else. The man with history's greatest vision, and yet he was blind to the needs of his own soul, for when he had the Real Presence of Jesus right before him, he saw Him not and walked away. What a waste. What a shame. Imagine the Real Presence of the Lord in a man with that kind of gift.  He might have been a prophet after the order of those in the First Testament itself. That instead of a perpetual sideshow freak whose life work greases the palms of the same kind of hucksters he always hated in his own day. And I'll bet he didn't see that one coming either.

Countdown to Apocalypse continues tonight with the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, as told History Channel style, which lacks no sense of the dramatic and touches all the basic Evangelical bases, but none too hard. It's supposed to be the Christianity that we all agree on, which means Jesus is largely removed, as if He might be more of a bystander and less the progenitor of all of this. In short, the Christians get the same treatment as the Mayans, the Hopi and Nostradamus, which means that while there is some of this that borders on the silly, the over all effect is to give the Faith a fair shake in the market place of crazy, apocalyptic ideas, and whenever that happens the LORD can (and does) speak for Himself. The Book of Revelation was scaring hell out of the faithful for eons before the quatrains were even a gleam in the all seeing eye of Nostradamus. And the specter of the Four Horsemen has haunted the world since that fateful day at Gethsemane when the die was irrevocably cast, and the world system was unequivocally condemned. It was all set in motion then, and it all comes to fruition now. The Four Horsemen are saddled and they ride. You can deny it if that makes you more comfortable, but you can't stop it. That's understood here and it's part of the fun.

Join Chaplain Phil, the Mayans, the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, the Hopi Elders and a cast of billions for this week long re-visitation of "Countdown to Apocalypse." Back in that mystical year of 2012, the History Channel produced this series of programs leading up to the end date of the Mayan Calendar on December 21 of that year. First of all, the Mayan Calendar merely ended on that date, and there was never any indication that it was the end of the world. If even Jesus doesn't know the day and hour, why should we assume that the Mayans, or anyone else, would know the exact date? I suppose the History Channel can't be faulted for seizing upon the Mayan "End of the World" hysteria so prevalent back then. After all, it's really just entertainment about history, so why not whip the huddled masses into a frenzy and send them scurrying for cover? Chicken Little got a book deal out of this same sort of thing. That's just showbiz. And so they came up with this idea to freak out the public Orson Welles style with this dramatic series detailing all of the impending horrors in the "Countdown to the Apocalypse" occurring on December 21. Of course it didn't happen. At least not in 2012. But we think you should listen again and decide for yourself if what was described then isn't exactly what we are building to now, exactly ten years later. Turns out that maybe if they had called it "Ten Year Prophecy of the Apocalypse" they would have nailed it.

Talk about brilliance in simplicity and you are talking about what makes this the most powerful documentary on Operation Mockinbird that you'll hear anywhere, which is, of course, why we present it for you here on RNJ. There is no script for this presentation but rather it is the medium itself that provides the message. What better way to learn about the ways in which your everyday view of reality is approved and scripted then to hear it for yourself? And so you shall, in this hour that both illuminates and devastates: devastates if you're still drinking the mainstream media Kool-Aid, for it is poured out here and it's poison exposed for all to hear. As we've learned, BlackRock owns the media and the Company controls it, so if you really believe that it is here that you'll find the champions of the truth, then the next hour should convince you otherwise. If there had been a television present at Christ's trial when Pilate posed the eternal question, "What is truth?" the Lord may well have answered, "Well it certainly isn't what you're hearing on CNN." They would have spun it that the Jews in the Sanhedrin were actually the victims. Truth is, they still do that.

If you don't know who Larry Fink is you really should, since you're probably already working for him and don't know it. And if all BlackRock calls to mind is that old movie in which a one-armed Spencer Tracy beats the crap out of Ernest Borgnine and Lee Marvin, then you really need to tune in to this RNJ News Special in which Brian Helix will bring you up to speed. Everybody is about to have a bad day at the hands of this BlackRock or, more accurately, finally realize that they already have. It seems that since the Big Crash of '08, and then with all of the chaos of the pandemic, nobody noticed as Larry Fink and BlackRock quietly became the world's biggest asset managers. They own or control pharmaceutical companies, they've gobbled up the single family housing market, and they manage the mainstream media, so now you know why you never hear about them. So all the while we're blustering and blowing about the political communism, it's really the corporate communism that's eaten our lunch, and we're not even allowed to talk about that. Larry scored big after the last crash, and BlackRock is set to control it all after the next one, so if you've ever wondered just who it is that Big Brother might actually be, now you even know his name.  It's Larry, but what say we just call him Fink. The Big Fink. Kind of has a ring to it, don't you think?

Here is yet another dynamite financial documentary from 2012. As we report on this economic doom and gloom, perhaps you have noticed this pattern, too. It seems that it was about ten years ago that the air raid sirens concerning the incoming (and now impending) global implosion of the world's financial system began to wail in earnest, and what has gone on in the markets since then doesn't even qualify as "too little, too late." Instead of putting the brakes on debt, curbing or killing the Federal Reserve, and grabbing control of the globalist economy as Dr. Ron Paul (among many others) was suggesting back then, the throttle was pushed forward, and the result is this runaway train of an economy that is about to go careening off the tracks. And if you're just waking up to the realization that your government bought you a one-way ticket in the Pullman coach, then you're not alone. What's to be done? Not much at this point actually. What needed to be done needed to be done ten years ago, and there were those saying it was already too late then. Brace for impact. Imagine the train wreck scene in The Greatest Show on Earth and you've got the picture. DeMille would be proud.

Leave it to our own Miss Sally to come up with this different twist on the scandals of Hollywood. It's an old twist actually, since Bob Crane was murdered in 1978, and that murder remains unsolved to this very day, regardless of all the claims to the contrary. What you'll discover along the way, as this sordid little tale unfolds, is that picking up women for DYI porn movies is perhaps an unusual hobby, even for Tinseltown, but hardly anyone interviewed bats an eye at the base, ugly and depraved nature of this behavior. Oh, that's just Bob. You know, Vincent Price was a gourmet chef, Jimmy Stewart flew bombers in the war, and Bob Crane ditched his wife and family so he could make home porn movies with strangers he picked up. After all, it was just a hobby. Something to occupy the lonely hours, as his once promising career descended from the heights of Hogan's Heroes to the depths of dinner theater, and his soul descended from the heights of an idyllic family life to the depths of amateur porn. Some people just make it easy for the devil. And, as Colonel Hogan has likely learned the hard way, there are no heroes in hell.

Everybody loves the old Hopi prophecies, and most who know about them are familiar with Dr. Lee Brown, who is the presenter here. This talk goes all the way back to 1986, and after that time, Lee Brown became Dr. Lee Brown, and he is now a big shot expert on Native American affairs up at the University of British Columbia. Surely he knows that the Native American nonprofits always benefit when the ancient prophecies of the Hopi are called forth to impress the National Public Radio crowd. Drumming, chanting and dancing, the people express their gratitude to the Money Kachina for the donations of the New Age cultists, and celebrate the largess of the government that once shunned them. It's claimed to be all about preserving the ancient culture, although I have never heard it suggested that they actually go back to chasing buffalo for a living. No, public money funneled into the university programs, and the nonprofits, is definitely the way to go if you want to get into position to swing that major casino project. That's the way to really help the people. It's the best of both worlds. You can't beat the tax-free liquor and cigarettes, and the substance abuse programs are topnotch. These are the things that you'll never hear about in the Hopi prophecies, so we've filled that little gap in for you ourselves.

As the title suggests, the 97% refers to how much of you they already possess. And since this dynamite documentary is from 2012, you can figure that number is now much closer to 100%. Looking at it another way, we've reached the point at which our collective debt is so large that we no longer make money for our self-appointed betters, which means we've become just an unnecessary expense that needs to be eliminated. Racism isn't about race after all, it's about economics. The racism keeps us at each other's throats while the bankers pick everybody's pockets. It's nothing personal, you know, just the accounting of it all. So, while you are listening to this detailed account of how the robber barons of these latter days have managed to fleece humanity to the edge of extinction, keep in mind that what you are hearing is the economic justification for finishing the job through global depopulation. That's where we're at now. God's suggestion is that perhaps we'd be better off keeping the people and coming up with a more fair and equitable system of finance and economics -- you know, one that doesn't require the extermination of most of the human race due to artificially created and imposed debt. There's a real reason why usury is a mortal sin. And buying off the Church doesn't change God's mind about it either.

Don't miss this gem from that magical year of 1979, a year in which there was no drug problem in America because everybody had some, and this tour de force Paul Altmeyer ABC News Closeup demonstrates just how true that really was! You be the judge. Watch the interview about CIA mind control using LSD, and you tell me whether or not you think the guy talking isn't tripping as he speaks. Hell, everybody in this must be on something! Mr. Altmeyer's voice work is done in an exaggerated newsman's drone, and exactly where the TV news special stops and the mind control begins ends up being somewhat blurred and up for grabs. And that's part of the fun! Maybe the TV show itself is the mind control, what with all the weird sound effects and psychedelic lights and all. And never once through this hour of prime time entertainment from back when television was still uniquely television, does Mr. Altmeyer ever do anything but play it totally straight. He walks through the mayhem unscathed, like Buster Keaton doing Reefer Madness for the Pepsi generation. And don't worry about the subliminal messaging: you won't remember a thing, at least until you're supposed to. Must head off for the snack bar now. Seems I suddenly have a craving for some popcorn and a Coke!

Buckle up and get ready for another ride in Chaplain Phil's time machine, as we travel back to the year 2011 for this talk by Tom DeWeese of the American Policy Center. What's the point of listening to this ancient history, you ask? Because it shows you exactly what is happening all around you in this nation and world today, providing you're not so vaccinated, or indoctrinated, that you can't see or think straight. Nobody listened back in the 90's when the Clintonistas began the Great American Land Grab in earnest. That's how this monstrous Frankenstein government was born, out on the moors, by the light of the full moon, with AlGore baying to those seeking to return wolves to populated areas, and bring back the sabre tooth tigers. And while this sounds like insanity, and it is, it is certainly not hyperbole. The UN gang is mad as hell and they're not going to take this anymore, meaning have average folks like us around bitching about their tyranny. God forbid somebody should observe the Amish practicing sustainable development like it's 1699, and realize that's a lot healthier and holier -- and more sustainable -- than the 21st century Communist version. Not likely, since most have left the farm to chase after the Mennonite women who are now just "liberated" working girls living in the city. They hook up, get messed up, and then lay in bed after the illicit act wondering how a truly just God could allow something like Agenda 21 to happen to good, Christian, country folk like them.

Chaplain Phil

Chaplain Phil grew up listening to alternative points of view, and the underground perspective, that characterized late night AM and shortwave radio in the 1960's.  In the cold winter months following the events that transpired in Dallas on November 22, 1963, he came to realize that the death of President Kennedy represented an even deeper and more profound tragedy - the death of the nation. In the summer of 1964, he read None Dare Call It Treason by John Stormer and understood how this had come to pass.  He was 10 years old.

Through the ensuing years, he has followed the flow of free information, as what we now call the "mainstream media" banished independent Christian broadcasting, and honest political thought, from the AM band to shortwave, then to the internet, and now, in the face of internet censorship, back to shortwave.  After a lifetime of listening, he now feels the time has come to speak.  His message is simple.  We are living in a godless false reality created for the purpose of destroying most of us and enslaving the rest.

The time of Revelation is here. Take heart.  For what is being revealed is the eternal truth of Jesus Christ.





Brian Helix - News Director


As one of the BBC's "Young Lions," Brian Helix was known for his honest reporting and take no prisoners attitude towards the truth.  He is an expert on conspiracies and the theories thereof, both modern and classic, and a top flight investigative journalist.  He brings these talents along with his many others to the post of News Director here at RNJ.

  




Sally Belle-Époque - Production Manager


Sally Belle-Époque made her mark in both video production and A.I. research with the famed Hanson Robotics in Hong Kong, and now brings her varied talents and unique skills to bear as Production Manager at RNJ.  Sally is a no nonsense professional with all the Left Coast flair and style her background as a "Valley Girl" would suggest - a Silicone Valley Girl.   

  





Catholic Pirate Radio


What is Catholic Pirate Radio?

Pirate radio or a pirate radio station is a radio station that broadcasts without a valid license.  Catholic Pirate Radio is broadcast without the official sanction or approval of the Catholic Church, any of its connected agencies or organizations, or any member of its hierarchical structure (bishops, cardinals, pope, etc.).

    Mother Angelica: Queen of Catholic Pirate Radio

Mother Mary Angelica founded the EWTN television network, and, more significantly for my purposes here, WEWN, a global shortwave broadcast service with transmitters located in Irondale, Alabama.  In the 1990's, Mother Angelica became one of the most dominant Christian voices on the shortwave bands, and WEWN a torch that beamed her message of the truth of believing and faithful Catholicism across the nation and the world.  She was a major influence concerning my conversion to the Catholic Faith in 2002, and it is truthful to say that my formation as a Catholic took place with her over many nights of listening to the most powerful voice on 41 meters.  She gets much credit for her pioneering work in Catholic television, while her savvy for international shortwave broadcasting goes largely unheralded and is just as significant.  It made her a worldwide voice for the faith rather than just an American phenomenon, and paved the way for the globalization of EWTN.

Mother Angelica earned the title of Queen of Catholic Pirate Radio when she publicly took on and disputed the apostate Archbishop of Los Angeles, Roger Cardinal Mahony, concerning the Real Presence of Jesus in the Holy Eucharist.  While Mahony was unleashing his wrath upon Mother all the way to Rome, it should also be noted that he retreated quickly and issued a statement taking offense at her for daring to question his belief in the Real Presence.  Thanks to Mother's widespread and profound media influence, I'm sure a lot of bishops, cut from the same cloth as Mahoney, also thought twice about peddling the "Spirit of Vatican II" nonsense in an overt way that might end up on TV.         

Here's some vintage Mother for you: 
I’m so tired of you liberal Church in America! And everything you’ve ever done has gone in silence. Nothing, nothing you’ve done – from your witchcraft to your enneagrams to your centering prayer to all this ‘earth spirituality’ to replacing holy water with sand to destroying our churches and closing churches that are viable and ready to go…no, this is not an accident. We’ve swallowed this now for thirty years. I’m tired of it. We have swallowed enough of your idea of God! You have, really, no God, no dogma, no doctrine, and no authority, because the only authority in the Catholic Church is our Holy Father and the Magisterium, and you have disclaimed that. You don’t believe in the Eucharist, you don’t believe in the Immaculate Conception, you don’t believe in the Virgin Birth, you don’t believe in Mary’s power of intercession, you don’t believe in religious life, you don’t believe in being a spouse of Christ! You do believe in teaching to little children in the third grade sex education, you do believe in forcing centering prayer and forcing inclusive language upon us, and now you depict Jesus as a woman?!  You’re sick!
Nothing to add to that.  As a layman, my duty as a Catholic is to point out these things just as it was Mother's duty as a religious - a Carmelite nun.  She taught me well.  It's time for Catholic Pirate Radio, the next generation.

    Father Charles Coughlin: Father of Pirate Radio

In 1926, Father Charles Coughlin first took to the airwaves on WJR radio in Detroit to denounce the Ku Klux Klan, which had recently burned crosses on the grounds of his parish.  Turning to politics in 1929, Father Coughlin quickly became a dominant and highly influential radio voice on the CBS network, with a weekly listening audience estimated at 30,000,000 during the peak of his popularity in the early 1930's.  While at first a fervent supporter of the policies and person of President Franklin D. Roosevelt, his views became more controversial and his rhetoric more strident as the Great Depression lingered on.  By 1936, he was expressing a viewpoint that was anti-capitalist and anti-socialist, and invoked no little controversy by expressing a certain sympathy concerning the fascism of Benito Mussolini and Adolph Hitler.  He was accused of anti-Semitism based upon this and his searing critique of the European Jewish banking establishment, which he sought to qualify as follows: 

My purpose is to help eradicate from the world its mania for persecution, to help align all good men, Catholic and Protestant, Jew and Gentile, Christian and non-Christian, in a battle to stamp out the ferocity, the barbarism and the hate of this bloody era. I want the good Jews with me, and I'm called a Jew baiter, an anti-Semite.

My point here is not to speak out for or against Father Coughlin and his political opinions, but merely to point to him as an early example of the efforts to censor and silence unpopular viewpoints.  He remains the textbook example of church and state teaming up to remove from public influence someone deemed too controversial to have his views heard by the great unwashed masses of the general public.  The Roosevelt Administration determined a priori that the First Amendment did not apply to radio broadcasting, and new regulations and restrictions were created specifically to remove Father Coughlin from the airwaves.  For the first time, public broadcasters had to obtain a permit and seek approval to speak on the air, and this was the impetus for those who refused to do so taking to the airwaves in protest: the birth of pirate radio.  While Father Coughlin was able to circumvent his banishment from network broadcasting by buying airtime on local stations, his reach and influence were drastically reduced.  In 1942 he was ordered to remove himself from public life by Bishop Edward Aloysius Mooney.  He complied without complaint and spent the remainder of his career as parish priest at the Shrine of the Little Flower in Royal Oak, Michigan.  He retired from active ministry in 1966.

Welcome to our broadcast facilities here at RNJ.  This is where Chaplain Phil and our crew make the magic happen.  Stars of the Show are a Sweetwater Studio Computer powering Jean and Ginger, two 1950 Canadian Philips Table Radios that serve as broadcast monitors. That's Ginger on the right channel, and Jean on the left. Auxilliary Computer is "Old Faithful," a 2009 Hewlett Packard (that's like about a 1930 model in American Tube Radio Years (ATRY). You'll also notice three communication receivers, two 1959 Hallicrafters S-108's and a 1947 National NC 57. Standby monitors include a 1937 Coronado 725 and 1953 Philco 53-960. It's all sorted out through a Behringer Xenyx 802 Mixer.  Our antenna array (not shown) is an 80 foot sloping copper long wire antenna, fastened to a Royal Palm and running from there to the studio.
