The Patrick Madrid Show: June 02, 2025 - Hour 2

Listeners call in with everything from questions about running a business without a smartphone to the heavy realities of growing old, wondering about the afterlife, or converting to Catholicism when the stakes are personal and raw. A surprise appearance from Hugh Grant’s thoughts on tech distractions slips in, and stories unfold—some heartfelt, some funny, all woven with genuine concern and encouragement as Patrick brings warmth and clarity with every discussion.
