From Bloggers:


Danielle Bean, Editor of Faith and Family Magazine and FaithAndFamilyLive.com:


“Pat Gohn offers a woman to woman conversation about the Catholic faith. Wonderfully inspiring stuff!”

+++



Sarah Reinhard of Just Another Day of Catholic Pondering:


This podcast is one of my must-listens, in part because Pat is such a professional, and in part because of her choice of material and her format is so wonderful. It’s a delight to listen to her saint highlight every week, and I always have a cup of tea -- real or virtual -- when I listen to her interviews. Among Women... helps me grow in my faith.”


+++


Leticia Velasquez of Catholic Media Review:


“Spiritual without being preachy... Pat brings in her years of radio experience in her smooth as silk voice and her professional standards, while her theology background lends depth to her insights. Among Women deserves its multiple nominations in the Catholic New Media Award podcast category.”


+++

Kate Wicker of Momopoly:


“Pat’s podcast is deserving of some kudos after being a top five finalist in several of the Catholic New Media Awards Awards podcast categories, including Best Podcast by a Woman and Best New Podcast. Congratulations, Pat!”


+++


Dr. Virginia Kimball, Mariologist, and US Chapter President (2009) of the Ecumenical Society of the Blessed Virgin Mary:


“Thorough, Catholic-based in faith and sources, and nicely catechetical. Great job!”


+++


Christina of A Button and A Fig:


“This podcast is such a pleasure to listen to. It is simple, honest, and interesting... Pat Gohn intertwines excellent teaching on the saints and the Catholic Church in a conversational format... this podcast has been soul food... its information and contemplation are rich, and yet very accessible.”


+++


Karen of Catholic iPod:


“Very professional and great informative content.”


+++


Tracy of Tracy’s Tales:


“Pat’s voice is like butter, so soothing I could listen to her all day long.  She introduces me to women saints and their history is truly interesting and inspiring... She also has contemporary women to interview who are no less fascinating as the saints themselves.”


+++


Barb of SFOMom:


“I enjoy the Among Women podcast because it’s not “same old, same old” each week. There’s always something new to learn, not a rehash of the same topic over and over. You have tapped into the great variety of experience that women have in this world, and connected it to the experience of the many Saints of the Church.  That keeps the content fresh and interesting!”


From Podcasters:


Fr. Roderick Vonhogen, CEO of SQPN, from Daily Breakfast (675):


Among Women is an entertaining, unique show with great content.  This is great stuff, I mean, this is not just your afternoon snack, this is good food for your faith. And its so awesome, and its definitely the first show we have that targets women as an audience. And so I think its a perfect addition to our SQPN line-up. We’re so happy, Pat, that you are part of our group of Catholic podcasters!”

Lisa Hendey of CatholicMom.com and the Catholic Moments podcast:


Among Women by Pat Gohn is among my favorite shows. Pat’s warm, professional demeanor and the incredible wealth of knowledge she possesses about the Catholic faith combine to make this show a real winner!”

+++


Sean McGaughey of The Catholic Round Up (53):


“The podcast technically sounds amazing... it’s just delightful to listen to... and she’s got some great stuff.”


Deacon Tom and Dee Fox of Catholic Vitamins:


“This isn’t fan mail... it’s blessing and prayer and thanksgiving and appreciation for Among Women... this podcast isn't entertainment... it's not something done to make us laugh or get to know Pat's family... this is faith... this is living the faith and with a wonderful vibrant witness to it.” 

From Listeners:


From a listener on iTunes:


"I love to listen to this podcast. Talking about the role women play in the Church, at home, and in the community. It feels like sitting Among Women in a tea or coffee shop discussing things relevant and feminine.  I love that it includes prayer, facts, stories, and simple discussion.”


+++


From a listener in Denmark:


“I have been enjoying your podcasts from the very first one.  I joyfully listen each week.”


+++


From a listener on the FaceBook group Among Women Podcast Friends:


“I have really enjoyed your podcast. I load them to my iPod and listen when I walk in the morning.”


+++


From a listener in North Carolina, commenting on episodes 31 & 32:


“Your podcast is an absolutely fantastic resource, especially, I think, for young women like me. 

Which brings me this most recent two-part interview with Dr. Hearden.  That was one of the most inspiring and liberating discussions of feminism that I have ever heard.  It has completely changed my mindset about my role in the world, my career, and my relationship with my husband....

You highlighted that those things that are unique to women are meant to be viewed with wonder and awe, not overcome as if they are some detriment or obstacle to my ability to succeed.


I eagerly await your podcast each week!  Among Women is an important part of my spiritual journey.”

From a listener in Quebec, Canada:


“Just wanted to say that I enjoy your podcasts and website, as well as your writings. Your work has been a blessing in my life. It has helped me come back to my faith. God bless you in your mission.”


+++


From a listener in California:


“I get so much out of your show. I’m a young university professor and I’m constantly criticized for being Catholic, especially Catholic and female. Society perceives Catholicism to be so anti-woman. I’m still trying to figure all that out and your show helps a lot.”


+++


From a mother of two in New Mexico:


“I just love your show. I love that it deepens my faith. I love that it adds richness to a faith that I've always grown up with but have never really known. I love that it gives me the vocabulary for things that I did not have before.


I love that your show runs the gamut from personal faith walks to ministry to social justice. I love that you take time for prayer. I love that you do not deny the difficulties of walking with Jesus. I love that you clearly radiate (even through the audio) your devotion to Jesus and our Lady in a way that inspires me but not in a way that is meant to impress me. I love that you are sincere and do not sugar coat nor preen for others. I love that you have an intellectual knowledge of our faith and a visceral one. Thus, you can talk about theology with professors... as well as empathize with women who have been waiting for years for their heart's desires to come true.


You can span the expanse of what Catholicism has to offer. I once heard a saying, "Even ministers of the gospel need to be ministered to." I feel like that's what you're doing. You have an innate graciousness that makes others trust what you say.”
