The topic for today is Mitt Romney, Mormonism, and the Recent Coverage in both the New York Times and Good Morning America.

We had 3 more EXCELLENT panelists for Mormon Matters podcast. They included:

  • Tom Grover: Tom is a lifetime resident of Cache Valley, producer and co-host of KVNU’s For the People.
  • Ronan James Head: Ronan is from Malvern, England (home of the Wilford Woodruff missionary sites). He grew up in the church and served a mission to Vienna, Austria, where he now also lives. Ronan is a scholar of the ancient Near East — currently dissertating — and a teacher of religious studies. He is married with three kids and recently taught Seminary. He blogs about Mormon stuff at the mighty bycommonconsent.com.

Please check out the podcast and let us know what you think.
