Patrick takes calls that range from a son anxious about his elderly mother's decision to stop dialysis, to a deep conversation about the effects of Vatican II changes on belief in the Eucharist, to honest stories of healing from addiction and sin through confession. He fields tough questions about reverence at Mass, the nuance of marital obligations, and parish life frustrations—never shying away from humor or raw honesty. Listeners bring their hardships, doubts, and small triumphs, and Patrick gives them straight, practical responses colored by relatable moments and hard-won wisdom.
