The Patrick Madrid Show

Patrick opens with a listener’s question about cursing and swearing, drawing on scripture and his own upbringing to argue why Christians should reject profanity. His response to callers brings a steady compassion, especially for a mother wrestling with her daughter’s difficult life decisions and for another listener overwhelmed by spiritual desolation, weaving in real-life advice alongside book suggestions.   Preston (email) - Is cursing and swearing a sin? (00:59) Catherine - I am afraid that my daughter is heading for hell. Do you have any advice? (11:35) Richard - I think I have a solution to the women who just called: I think they are at the age now where they can live together in celibacy. Couldn't that be a solution? (18:38) Laura (email) – What is wrong with me? (22:38) Mike (email) – Jesus did claim to be God (37:02) Pat - I suffered for scruples for many years. Priest told me that if I couldn't swear on the Bible if something was a mortal sin, then you shouldn't worry about it. (39:01) Liz - You have prayed for a Philip to come into people's lives. Where did you get that from? (43:51) Mark - I hear condemnation going on. I think Laura needs some encouragement. I knew about a woman who was afraid to go to a Church for a similar reason. (45:33)

Patrick brings gratitude to the forefront, reflecting on everyday comforts like hot showers, electricity, and medicine that past generations never imagined, and urging listeners to reconnect with a spirit of thankfulness. He guides callers through raw, honest conversations about faith, suffering, prayer, and how even the smallest actions can bring hope, always tying their stories back to practical acts of love, humility, and remembering God’s mercy. In each exchange, Patrick reveals how a grateful heart transforms how he faces hardship, community, and life’s simplest joys.   What are you thankful for? (00:20) Becky - I have Parkinson's disease and am meeting with a Deacon. He and a friend are doing a deliverance prayer over me. Is this ok? (09:54) Pat - Gratefulness is a magnet for miracles. Being grateful opens your heart to God. I have found this to be very meaningful. (15:08) Christine - I agree with what you are saying about gratitude. It is important to remember history and always remember it. (17:15) Pam - I wanted to thank Patrick. You talked about St. Pio. A miracle happened to me. (21:41) Carlos - I find that serving others can help you overcome this feeling of struggling to love God. When you help others, you will come to God. (27:09) Tom - Why in the Middle Ages did God allow the Church to become so corrupt? (31:29) Jacquelyn (email) – Can I bless my son with Holy Water? (38:35) Stephanie - My 3-month-old son was sick, and my husband stayed home with him and my daughter. Was it a sin of omission not to take her? Also, I feel guilty for not helping the poor more. (43:38)

Patrick weaves together commentary from Elon Musk on humanoid robots and their impact on society with listener questions about Catholic practices, exploring everything from the future of AI in healthcare to personal tales of spiritual encounters at home. Questions on confession, salvation, forgiveness, and the meaning of faith ripple through. Tension hums beneath the surface as Patrick challenges outside perspectives on Church tradition, technology, and what it means to live with meaning in a rapidly changing world.   Audio: Elon - Optimus will ultimately be better than the best human surgeon and will end poverty (00:19) Angela - Is it okay to use the 'peace sign' at mass?

(10:55) Bill (email) - During the communion rite at Mass, the congregation recites a short passage, "Lord, I am not worthy....." just before the priest consumes the bread and wine.  What is the origin of that passage?  (21:34) Todd (email) - How does someone outside the catholic faith that can’t go to confession receive forgiveness after committing a mortal sin? If they are sorry for that sin, is that enough or are they destined for hell? (25:59) Mark - Do you believe that the Protestant request for forgiveness is rejected? (37:48) Wally - I was in line for Communion. I dropped the Eucharist and picked it up. The priest took it and ate it and gave me another one. (48:40)

Patrick opens with reflections on shifting from liberal to more conservative perspectives, mixing personal anecdotes with sharp observations about culture wars, gender ideology chaos, the tug-of-war over political labels, and the confusion sparked by celebrity-driven trends. He answers hard-hitting questions about Catholic confession details and the proper use of anointing of the sick, offering grounded explanations. Unfiltered and honest through it all, Patrick threads witty encouragement with a resolve to speak faith-filled truth, no matter how noisy the world gets.   Audio: Holly Valance - Everyone starts as a lefty . . . and then you go to the right.

Patrick opens the hour reckoning with the Vatican’s Marian document, mixing his personal devotion and firm theological stance as he sorts out why its language stirs confusion and heated opinions. Calls ricochet from vocational discernment and science-versus-faith debates, including dinosaurs and human origins, to urgent family worries about conversion and the Catholic core, and Patrick responds fast, sometimes with book recommendations, sometimes pointed scriptural references, always nudging for clarity.   Paul (email) - There was no reason for this document about our Mother Mary to be produced and sent out.  As you mention, it has only caused more confusion, division, and dis-unity among the faithful (00:41) Connie - I am 30 and in OCIA.

Each moment features Patrick's refreshing blend of honesty, wit, and unwavering Catholic perspective.   Audio: You are a woman and you have a womb.
