The Merry Beggars

The Merry Beggars is the entertainment division of Relevant Radio, dedicated to producing original audio dramas that bring faith and history to life. Founded to create high-quality, family-friendly entertainment rooted in the Catholic tradition, The Merry Beggars combines creative storytelling with professional production to reach audiences across the country and around the world.

Our work spans a growing library of audio series, including The Saints—a flagship weekly show dramatizing the lives of the saints—and On the Night Train, an award-winning original adventure series for families. Each production blends historical research, authentic Catholic themes, and cinematic sound design to create immersive listening experiences that inspire, educate, and entertain.

From script development to sound design, The Merry Beggars operates with a studio-style approach, bringing together writers, actors, composers, and sound engineers to collaborate at scale. This model allows the team to produce dozens of hours of original scripted content each year while maintaining high artistic and theological standards.

Beyond entertainment, The Merry Beggars exists to build a culture of beauty and meaning. By sharing stories of virtue, sacrifice, and grace through accessible media, the studio seeks to strengthen the imagination of Catholic families and invite new audiences to encounter timeless truths in fresh, engaging ways.

Today, The Merry Beggars continues to grow as part of Relevant Radio’s broader mission to bridge faith and media—creating stories that form hearts, spark wonder, and bring hope to millions of listeners worldwide.
