The Patrick Madrid Show: August 25, 2026 - Hour 3

Patrick answers an array of listener questions, moving quickly from struggles with unwanted intrusive thoughts and the unique intersection of faith and mental health to the practicalities of breastfeeding at Mass, yoga in schools, and whether parents should name guardian angels. Topics like persistent prayer, liturgical definitions, and the accessibility of sought-after priests reveal how Catholic tradition intersects with messy, daily life. Humor bubbles up amid serious moments, as stories touch on everything from praying for safe pregnancies to confronting pride when doors close.
