Catholics of Oz
Catholics of Oz is a lively conversation from Melbourne where three Catholics bring an Australian perspective to the things that shape everyday faith. Each episode blends smart, friendly discussion of Catholic news and life with the wider world—science, technology, music, apps, and the cultural moments Australians are living through right now.
Hosted by Lindsay Sant, Caroline Knight, and Lino Saubolle, the show is less about hot takes and more about practical wisdom: how to stay grounded, think clearly, and live the faith with joy in a modern, media-saturated culture.
As part of the StarQuest Production Network, Catholics of Oz fits SQPN’s bigger mission: building bridges between the Church and modern culture by connecting what’s happening in the world to enduring Christian and human values—and doing it in a way that forms real community, not just content.
