Feedback from Facebook – Corinne Kelley
- I am an emerging media and communications major at the University of Texas at Dallas and just want to say thanks for using the new media for the new eveangicalization!

Petra Balkema (friends with Sean McCarney) also commented on Austin Catholic New Media’s post.

Almost stopped after episode 7 (lordy, Americans really think they rule the world), but then decided that it’s interesting to hear different opinions. And still happily listening. Obviously not everything is completely interesting to me, not being from ‘the area’ (:)), but even that segment is interesting, because I get to hear what you are doing. Keep it up!”
