4.7 out of 5 stars from 130 ratings
  • Horrable music

    You have an excellent podcast but that music you use to divide your reports is so-so aggravating. Also, you do not have to yell into the microphone a normal voice would just be fine.

  • Reliable news for all Christians

    As an Anglican Christian, I rely on EWTN to keep me informed about news that is typically not reported by secular media.

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

EWTN News Nightly | Tuesday, July 14, 2026
Q: Fran, what is your request and message to lawmakers on Capitol Hill?
We are urging passage of two key legislative solutions, the Frederick Douglass Trafficking Victims Prevention and Protection Reauthorization Act and the Kids Online Safety Act, to end human trafficking, protect survivors, and safeguard children online. These bills have bipartisan roots but are stalled, and we are calling for urgent action from members of Congress.
EWTN News Nightly | Thursday, July 16, 2026
Q: Dr. Chapp, what are the Catholic Church's greatest contributions to the nation?
The Church helped assimilate millions of immigrants into the United States, providing moral and social guidance beyond pure pragmatism.
EWTN News Nightly | Thursday, July 16, 2026
Q: And Owen, what else have you learned about the president's speech tonight?
Veronica is told that the president will address safe elections and the economy, without revealing too many details ahead of the broadcast.
EWTN News Nightly | Tuesday, June 16, 2026
Q: So first, how are prediction markets different from online gambling, and why does the distinction matter?
Prediction markets are meant for economically significant contracts, but some contracts have shifted toward gambling-like forms; thus, they should be regulated as gambling for those types of contracts, with clear rules to avoid insider information exploitation.
EWTN News Nightly | Thursday, June 25, 2026
Q: What practical impact will the TPS ruling have for people currently living legally in the U.S. under temporary protected status?
There is no judicial review for TPS decisions, which makes removal decisions harder to challenge and could simplify designation or termination of TPS statuses.
