If you are a long-time Immaculate Heart Radio listener, you have likely noticed some big and exciting changes in the past few days.
This summer, Immaculate Heart Radio and Relevant Radio® merged to form one organization – Immaculate Heart Media, branded as Relevant Radio. We are now working together as one organization to reach 133 Million people in 39 states across 127 radio stations. Our Catholic radio programming is heard from Los Angeles to New York City, from Hawaii to Texas, and many places in between!
After lots of hard work and prayerful consideration, we now have:
- One brand
- One program schedule
- One logo
- One web site
- One mobile app, coming soon.
So if you’re wondering where Immaculate Heart Radio went, the answer is that it didn’t go anywhere! Your favorite Immaculate Heart Radio shows can still be heard on air, online, or on demand under our new name, Relevant Radio. We are now bigger, better, and stronger together.
Below are some frequently asked questions about our merger and the changes that are taking place.
Why did Immaculate Heart Radio and Relevant Radio decide to merge?
There is no more important or urgent task than to reach souls for Christ. The two largest owned and operated Catholic radio networks have united under the patronage of the Immaculate Heart of Mary to bring more hearts home to the merciful embrace of the Father.
Why the name “Relevant” Radio?
The name reflects our commitment to quality programming addressing the many facets of Catholic life and – most importantly- the fact that everything is relevant to Jesus and Jesus is relevant to everyone.
Why were shows repositioned?
One of the benefits of our merger was the opportunity to offer Relevant Radio programs to Immaculate Heart Radio listeners and Immaculate Heart Radio programs to Relevant Radio listeners. By repositioning some programs, Relevant Radio is able to expand our program lineup, offering you more hours of live programming and fewer encore shows, each and every day. Our new, unified program schedule is the result of much thoughtful, prayerful consideration as to how we could best meet the needs of our combined listening audience.
How can I listen to my favorite show now?
There are many ways you can listen to your favorite show! You can tune-in live at its new time through your local station, online at RelevantRadio.com or on our mobile app. Or you can listen to past shows through the On Demand section of our web site. You can also subscribe to the show’s podcast so you never miss an episode. To do that, just search the show name in your preferred podcast player and then hit ‘Subscribe.’
How can I help?
The most important thing you can do is to pray, pray, pray. The Lord, alongside the Blessed Mother and the communion of saints, is the silent but powerful force behind Relevant Radio. Please pray for us, and be assured of our daily prayers for you.
Another way you can help Relevant Radio is by making a tax-deductible donation to help keep us on the air nationwide. You can make a monthly pledge or one-time gift safely and securely through our Giving Page.
