We the Τίνες Ρωμίοι ("Certain Romans") who produce GOCTV, often are asked by our viewers to do programs on a topic/s that are/is of particular interest to that/those viewer/s. One particular viewer is Nicholas Papadopoulos, esq., a young attorney from Chicago. He suggested we do a program on a Holy Virgin that was among his favorite saints. We invited him to present the program. We produced this program for him, with him as the "viewer presenter". We think he did a wonderful job.
