Your name, your birthday, your nationality, your job, your hobby, each entitles you to the papally prescribed, perpetual, personal protection of a plethora of powerful patrons in paradise. Whatever your problem, a holy host of heavenly helpers is at hand. And you don't even have to be Catholic! In this pilot episode authors and experts, Sean Kelly and Rosemary Rogers explain where the saints come from, how they are officially canonized, and how they can help us in everyday life. We learn the truth about the real Saint Nicholas' broken nose, why Saint Brigid taught a fox to dance, how Saint Columbanus taught Europe to read, and why Tupac could be considered a modern-day saint.
