The Patrick Madrid Show: June 05, 2026 - Hour 1

Patrick answers listener questions about Catholic practices, clears up confusion about novenas and the national Sacred Heart consecration, and speaks openly about conspiracy theories linked to Israel and Jewish influence in politics. He advocates critical thinking, helps parents find wholesome books for their children, and examines the complexities of forgiveness during confession. With a tone both candid and encouraging, Patrick guides the conversation through faith, skepticism, and the noise of modern culture.
