Interfaith Voices is the nation's only public radio show exclusively about religion. We were born just three days after 9/11, when a feisty nun got the idea to host a multi-faith panel on religion and terrorism, live on the radio. The phones rang off the hook, and it became clear that listeners were hungry for informed, respectful dialogue on religion in the public square. We carry on that mission today with our free, weekly podcast...led by our host Amber Khan.

Posting delays

I am a long-time listener and enjoy this show. However, they are currently very slow to post new episodes, update the website, or keep current on Twitter about the radio broadcast. This lag time definitely reduces the number of times I share episodes. For example, today is April 14, and as of this moment the latest episode available is April 3. I have contacted the show with no response.
