Independence Day (6/30/2018)

As the nation prepares to celebrate the 4th of July, beloved songs like God Bless America, The Star-Spangled Banner, and America the Beautiful will be sung from sea to shining to sea. This week on Register Radio we salute the country’s lyrical legacy with Register reporter Joe Pronechen. But first, it was another busy news week from Rome, and we talk with Register Vatican Correspondent Edward Pentin about the Church’s newest Cardinals, the trial of a former Vatican diplomat, and Pope Francis’ trip to Geneva.
