I know you guys were doing that show as recently as a few months ago. I always really enjoyed it. What happened to it?

Good question!!! I think we just forgot about it.

We usually do it 4 times a year, but it looks like we missed April. I don't think we have room on the calendar until August, so we'll try to do one then.

Thanks for reminding us!

Actually, you guys are TOO GOOD...Karl said we were giving away too much free stuff to our winners

Not really...Jan's right, we just forgot

"Who Wants to be an Apologist?" will be back soon - August 1 to be exact!

Josh,

Having the "guts" to call is just part of the equation. You also need "good timing," as the game show has become our most popular broadcast

God bless!

You guys need to dress in colorful polyester suits and post some pictures. Then it'll work better as a game show.

MORE cheesy game show music. Talk with a big annoncer voice occasionally. Maybe have a little fun by inviting on a "celebrity" apologist. Not a well known Cathoic commentator, but just somebody kind of famous who happens to be Catholic. Be playful with the guest right or wrong.

Too bad the show isn't on TV. Then they could have a "secret word", revealed to only the viewers without being said. If any caller were to say the secret word, Karl would fly down with $100 is his mouth to give the winning caller.

Chicago--You are GOOD...I'm writing these down!

Today's show was great.
I liked the fact that the excitement expressed by the contestants really got me excited to root for them.

As always, there were questions that I couldn't have answered and surprised by the answers.

Devil's advocate...I never knew that one!

I really was looking forward to todays show and as luck would have it I just caught only the last 15 mins. because of work! If I would have only quit my job this morning I would have been at least 25 bucks richer.....Next time I am quiting because I know for sure you cant stump me.....no way..I even got the over 25 years question right. Just try me Jerry!
