Ave Maria Radio - www.avemariaradio.net
Their Catholic Radio Mission Statement - Ave Maria Radio employs radio, internet and other media to offer news, analysis, teaching, devotions and music to demonstrate the good news that Jesus is Lord over all areas of life. Through these means and activities we show that the teaching of Christ, through His Church offers a rational view of the world, a deep sense of spirituality, a firm family life, enhanced human relationships, and the creation of a culture of life and love.
This is a great resource with very informative radio shows that are broadcast live over the Internet.  They also save audio archives for all of their shows so you can listen to them on your time schedule.  An App is also available for the iPod Touch, iPhone, and iPad that allows you to listen to their broadcast live over the Internet.

EWTN - www.ewtn.com
When Eternal Word Television Network (EWTN) was launched on August 15, 1981, many felt there would be little demand for a Catholic network. Now, in its 28th year, EWTN has become the largest religious media network in the world, transmitting programming 24 hours a day to more than 148 million homes in 144 countries and  territories on more than 4,800 cable systems, wireless cable, Direct Broadcast Satellite (DBS), low power TV and individual satellite users.
EWTN is a great resource that produces a wide variety of great programming for all age groups.  Much of this programming is archived for listening or viewing anytime.  Many programs are also available on the EWTN YouTube Channel (www.youtube.com/ewtn) which makes it very easy to watch this programming on your schedule from your computer, iPod Touch, iPhone, iPad, or Android phone & tablet devices.

Catholic Answers - www.catholic.com
Catholic Answers is one of the nation’s largest lay-run apostolates of Catholic apologetics and evangelization. Its mission statement explains its purpose: Catholic Answers is an apostolate dedicated to serving Christ by bringing the fullness of Catholic truth to the world. We help good Catholics become better Catholics, bring former Catholics “home,” and lead non-Catholics into the fullness of the faith.

Catholic Answers is a great resource for finding the answer to any question you could possibly have about the Catholic Church.  They host live call in shows on most EWTN radio affiliates from 6:00 pm to 8:00 pm ET every weekday.  This live call in format is a great way to learn a lot about the Catholic faith.  Their website contains tons of electronic documents and a large number of recorded audio and video programs. They also have many videos available on YouTube (www.youtube.com/user/catholiccom).

The Coming Home Network International - www.chnetwork.org
They seek to assist the Catholic Church in fulfilling its mission of evangelization and its call for Christian unity, as most recently proclaimed by Pope John Paul II in his encyclical “That They May Be One” (Ut Unum Sint). In cooperation with Catholic bishops, the Coming Home Network International was established to help inquiring clergy as well as laity of other traditions return home and then be at home in the Catholic Church.
CHNI also hosts a weekly "Deep in Scripture" radio program and a weekly "Journey Home" (www.ewtn.com/tv/live/journeyhome.asp) TV program.  Both of these programs air live on most EWTN radio and TV affiliates. "Deep in Scripture" audio archives can be found on the CHNI website and video archives on YouTube (www.youtube.com/user/ComingHomeNetwork).  "Journey Home" video archives can be found on the EWTN and EWTN YouTube Channel websites mentioned above.

St Charles Borromeo Parish Bible Study website - www.scborromeo.org/bible.htm
This site contains a link to the Liturgical Calendar with links on the calendar to the weekend mass reading with very good and interesting commentary.  I do my best to read these bible studies every week and when I do I get so much more out of the readings in mass and father's homily.
