I don’t know if you are aware of it, but there are hundreds of William F. Buckley “Firing Line” DVDs available on Amazon. During the long, long life of the TV program, he interviewed almost every major figure, politic, literary, and artistic.

The level of intellectual discussion is fascinating to watch in this day of the 30 second sound sound bite.

I also love watching the old Archbishop Fulton J Sheen program. I think they are on DVD as well.

The re-runs of Sheen’s various programs are aired on EWTN. Re-runs are also aired on TBN.

Ignatius Press and EWTN sell the Fulton Sheen DVD’s, and my husband says he’s downloaded some on audio-somethingorother. I’m so behind the times. My kids watch everything on streaming video, while I’m still tied to the CD player in the kitchen!

I saw Mr. Buckley speak at my college in 1984 or -5. He had such wonderful grammar and composition ... like an upper-crust New Englander version of Alan Keyes ... all the sentences diagram!
