Patrick opens the phone lines for unfiltered calls about tattoos, regret, faith, and the emotional knots people tie—and try to untangle—over the years. He listens as callers lay bare stories of choosing partners outside their faith, family scandal, and choices that echo across decades, offering practical advice and rooting the discussion in real-life struggles.
- Anthony - I have lived with tattoos for 20 years. I regret every single tattoo I have. (00:45)
- Cecilia - I am engaged to a non-Catholic. He is challenging the Eucharist and says it is just a symbol. (11:09)
- Chiara - You gave me similar advice as you did Cecilia, and I have a completely different outlook now. My life is way better thanks to you. (22:26)
- Stephanie - I was also engaged to non-Catholic who later converted. His family was supportive. I feel her marriage is at greater risk than mine was. (27:41)
- Cyrus shares a couple of emails in regards to Cecilia’s call
- Kristy - I just wanted to encourage Cecilia. Those signs are there for a reason. I broke my engagement off with young man and it hurt but I couldn’t leave my faith even for someone I cared about.
- Elisha - When I was dating someone non-Catholic I could feel God wanted something else for me. I broke up with that man and met my current husband 3 weeks later. (38:08)
- Elsa - I too had a similar experience. I’m glad that I did what I did. I wouldn’t be a religious education director today. (41:19)
- Matt – You mentioned that American Indians knew about the early stories from Genesis. Can you comment on this more? (44:19)
- Barry - My wife and I got married outside of the Church. Can I receive the Eucharist if we are not having sexual relations? (48:39)
