When most people think of the midterm elections, their attention is focused on the race for governor, Congress, or ballot initiatives such as Proposal 3. But it’s important to remember another race- the one for state supreme courts. Judge Michael Warren joins us.

Earlier this week we celebrated All Saints Day. It’s easy to look at the saints as paragons of virtue and holiness, and forget that they were real people who faced real struggle, temptation, and doubt. Fr. Thomas Dubay wrote extensively on the saints as examples of everyday holiness. We look back on a conversation with him today.

Late last month the Vatican re-renewed its deal with China for another two years. This comes as Cardinal Zen's trial picks up again and Xi Jinping makes moves to increase his power within China. Benedict Rogers updates us on what is going on.

In this Sunday's Gospel, the Sadducees attempt to trick Jesus. They pose a situation where a woman continued to marry her late husband's brothers, and asked whose wife she would be at the Resurrection. What can we learn from Jesus' response? Peggy Stanton joins us.

The European witch hunts, and witch burnings, is one of those historical events that virtually everyone has heard of, but almost nobody knows anything about.

What was the background for them? Sandra Miesel joins us.

Proponents of Proposal 3 try to say that it will simply restore the rights that existed under Roe v Wade. But it actually represents an unprecedented extreme. Dr. Kathryn Moseley explains why.

On October 16, 1962, President Kennedy learned of Soviet missile sites under construction in Cuba. For the next thirteen days, he met with his advisers to determine the best course of action. The popular understanding of what happened during those meetings is quite different from what the historical record shows. We take a close look with Sheldon Stern.

In His deepest nature, God is Love. This can make it hard to understand the concept of Hell – eternal separation from God. Al continues his thoughts from last week.

On this All Saints Day, we commemorate the life of St Dominic, Founder of the Dominican Order. He had a special devotion to the Blessed Mother and is attributed with the spread of the Rosary. We look at his life and influence with Thomas Madden.

As Catholics, we are all called to be saints. We can choose to live a life of sanctity, aiming for perfect conformity with Christ – or we can aim for the opposite. What does a life lived in this matter look like? On this All Saints Day, Al shares some thoughts.
