Provoke Radio is a compelling, 30-minute weekly radio program whose mission is to engage listeners in a reflection of contemporary issues from the vantage of their own faith. The program explores issues of social justice and ethics within the context of inter-religious dialogue, revealing a rich treasure of common values. Provoke believes communications is a mighty tool in the promotion of justice. In a world where many voices are absent from the more powerful media, Provoke tackles issues that affect the poor and marginalized throughout the world. And in so doing, provides a voice for the voiceless.

Podcasting is the method of distributing multimedia files, such as audio programs, over the Internet for playback on mobile devices and personal computers. Usually a podcast features one type of program, with new episodes released periodically, such as daily or weekly. Podcasting's essence is about creating content for an audience that wants to listen when they want, where they want, and how they want. You can listen to our shows one at a time (say using your web browser) or you can 'subscribe' to the entire podcast series using software on your computer. When you subscribe to our podcast, all new shows will be automatically downloaded to your computer as they are published. And if you have an MP3 player, the next time you sync your device, your podcasts will be downloaded for listening on the go.
