Bishop Thomas J. Tobin visited Relevant Radio’s studio in Providence last Thursday to record a Marian Message devoting 2017 to Mary in commemoration of the 100th Anniversary of the apparitions in Fatima, Portugal. Board members of Relevant Radio and Immaculate Heart Radio recently signed a merger agreement and have submitted a petition to the FCC for the required ownership transfer of radio licenses to the merged entity. The non-profit corporation will be known as “Immaculate Heart Media, Inc. d/b/a Relevant Radio.” Bishops, clergy, listeners, donors, and employees across the country have expressed enthusiastic support for the merger. The merged corporation will broadcast inspirational Catholic radio programs over 108 AM and FM radio stations and translators in 36 states reaching 133 million potential listeners. The network will operate 24/7 in 22 of the nation’s top 50 media markets, including the four largest markets: New York, Los Angeles, Chicago and San Francisco. Additionally, all programs will be live-streamed and available on podcast through multiple Internet platforms including websites, mobile apps, and social media portals.
