Welcome
The 15th Station is the first Catholic Podcast in New Zealand. We launched on the Feast of the Assumption (August 15) 2007, as that is the feast day of New Zealand.
Our monthly podcast brings together fresh perspectives on Catholic news from around the world. We also try to bring you up to speed with the big events in the Church in New Zealand.
If you like our podcast and you want to get in touch with us, you can drop us an email at 
. You can also
find out more about this project (like where we got our name) on the about us page.
Thanks for tuning in to the 15th Station.
It's kind of hard to ignore it with an election both here in NZ and over in the USA. This month we talk about an open letter from the NZCCSS to all political candidates on poverty issues, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi getting things very wrong with regards to the Catholic teaching on abortion, an Auckland-based homosexual publication slamming the Catholic bishops' pre-election statement as bigoted and ignorant, the tragedy in Orissa, and the cancelled beauty pageant for nuns!
