The Patrick Madrid Show: May 21, 2026 - Hour 1

Patrick explores Catholic life amid modern challenges, answering listeners anxious about religious freedom, campus controversies, and personal faith struggles with real honesty and warmth. Calls pour in about drag shows at Catholic universities, the meaning of patron saints, and coping with animosity for simply being Catholic, while Patrick steers each conversation toward practical hope and prayer. He listens, reassures, and never dodges the discomfort, inviting everyone to face questions head-on in the ordinary swirl of daily belief.
