The Patrick Madrid Show: October 28, 2026 - Hour 1
Patrick guides an open, sometimes challenging discussion about Catholic marriage, intimacy, and the morality of sexual acts, referencing heartfelt questions and catechism clarity. The conversation moves from deeply personal struggles, such as medical complications in marriage and the pain of children leaving the faith, to broader reflections on societal threats like communism and misconceptions about religious tradition. Through stories of gratitude, emotional honesty, and a commitment to the Church’s teachings, Patrick encourages listeners searching for truth, healing, and a way home.
