The Patrick Madrid Show: August 04, 2025 - Hour 2

Patrick fields heartfelt questions, from whether chewing the Eucharist shows disrespect to what makes sensory-friendly Masses so vital for families with unique needs. Insights and humor mix as he brings real stories of embracing noisy pews, handling tricky conversations about livestreamed Mass, and giving practical advice for parents facing stares or family disagreements over Catholic practices. Voices from across the country weave together in a candid conversation, reflecting both the warmth and the challenges of living faith in community.
