"This evening or this night, Christ opens the door to the pope."
- BISHOP ANGELO COMASTRI, vicar of the Vatican.

Jay Thomas, Acting PD at WWYZ, Hartford reports that "Country 92.5's Bosh and Cory will have some folks on the show Monday from a local Catholic church to talk about the Pope's impact locally.

"Also, Connecticutt has several large Polish neighborhoods, so we'll have a leader in the local Polish community on the air as well.

"I saw a report on last night’s 11pm news on NBC30 of a church in New Britain, CT where the Pope visited in the 60’s when he was a cardinal. We'll ask listeners to talk about it."
