    The Patrick Madrid Show: August 12, 2026 - Hour 1

    Patrick brings forward heartfelt Catholic parenting struggles and the friction that comes when faith meets indifference within families, then moves without pause to the weight of new abortion laws, exposing inconsistencies and pressing for the dignity of life with no hesitation. He weaves in humor as pronoun debates and denominational questions arise, tossing lightness and sharp inquiry in equal measure and never letting heavy topics linger unchallenged.   Anna (email) - At what point should we decide to limit exposure to these family members so as not to scandalize our kids to believe that it's okay to be lukewarm Catholics and to even live a lifestyle that is contrary to Catholic beliefs? (01:40) George - The bill signed in MA yesterday allowing abortion up till birth. Horrendous and barbaric. Massachusetts House Passes Bill to Strengthen Abortion Care - https://malegislature.gov/PressRoom/Detail?pressReleaseId=1450 (14:32) Donna - When pregnant woman is killed in Maine, considered two people dead.

    The Patrick Madrid Show: August 12, 2026 - Hour 2

    Patrick explores questions about authority, suffering, and family tensions through personal stories and faith challenges, offering Catholic perspectives on naming guardian angels, choosing life in difficult pregnancies, and the risks of spiritual warfare without proper authority. He listens to intense calls about refusing to attend a same-sex wedding, dealing with estranged parents, and encouraging loved ones back to confession and faith practice, framing each issue within Scripture and Church teaching. As unexpected stories surface, Patrick connects callers’ struggles with hope, reflection, and the radical call to do the right thing even under pressure.   John (email) - Naming or hearing the name of your Guardian Angel (01:19) Jim in MN - 30 yrs ago, my wife and I were told by our doctor to abort. We didn’t, and now my daughter is very beautiful and healthy. It was a very difficult time. (03:45) Jim in FL - My niece is getting married to a woman. I refuse to go to the wedding and it is causing friction. Am I doing the right thing? (07:05) Bob - Are there exorcists in the Protestant faith, and are they legitimate? (10:27) Jim - When God created mankind, he breathed into Adam his spirit. God did not breath into the animals or Eve. Was this spirit passed to Eve?

    The Patrick Madrid Show: August 12, 2026 - Hour 3

    Patrick answers a wide range of questions from naming children after saints and the nuances of choosing Old Testament versus New Testament names to the subtle reverence Catholics bring to sacred images and Eucharistic practices, even when these collide with interfaith customs in hospital chapels. The discussion winds through what truly fulfills the Sunday Mass obligation post-COVID, explores Catholic marriage validity for non-Catholics and atheists, and lands on the thorny art of sharing moral beliefs without sounding judgmental.   Denise (email) - Is it preferable to name a baby after a New Testament person rather than an Old Testament person? I understand that there is nothing wrong with using an Old Testament name, but is it better to use a New Testament one? And is using a saint's name the best of all? (01:00) Mark (email) - I recently received a Divine Mercy visor clip for my truck. When I’m not using the visor to block the sun, Jesus is upright and watching over me. However, when I need to block the sun with the visor in order to see better while driving, the image is upside down. I worry that having The Divine Mercy image upside down while using my visor is somehow disrespectful. What is your opinion? (05:00) Emily (email) - According to Redemptoris Sacramentum (paragraphs 183–184), every Catholic has a serious duty to protect the Eucharist from any irreverence or abuse. What can I do when a hospital chapel has a tabernacle (but no crucifix), the tabernacle is pushed to the side next to Muslim prayer rugs and Qurans, an electric sanctuary lamp, and a multi-religion pillar on the main altar? (06:35) Theresa - Is it okay to watch Mass online instead of physically going to Mass when it doesn't work out with things going on in your life? (11:25) Sebastian - What authority governs non-Catholic marriages that they must have children? How can we live an upright life voicing concerns but not be a morality cop (14:43) Anne - I'm a Roman Catholic Chaplain for a hospital. We have electric light in our chapel where Jesus is, but it’s also interdenominational chapel. (27:25) Sean - How would you help a close parish friend who is suddenly consuming marijuana? (35:56) Cyra – If someone is baptized Catholic marrying baptized Christian, and not married in faith or not wanting kids, is that a valid marriage? (38:36) Lisa - Priest asked a family to bring home the blessed sacrament for the weekend. Is that okay to do? (45:40)

    The Patrick Madrid Show: August 11, 2026 - Hour 2

    Patrick explores topics from male athletes declaring themselves WNBA prospects and the logic of self-identification in sports, to the boundaries of parish involvement in potentially scandalous situations. He engages with questions about Communion practices, liturgical changes since Vatican II, capital punishment through scriptural lenses, and the historic dispute over the Filioque in the Creed. With sharp shifts from cultural hot-buttons to parish dilemmas and theological puzzles, his conversation keeps listeners guessing where the next unexpected connection will spark.   Audio: Royce White – I sometimes identify as a transgender woman and I should get to play with my fellow queens - https://x.com/EricLDaugh/status/2086811506499281089 (00:15) Audio: Ex-NBA player Enes Kanter declares himself eligible for the WNBA draft - https://x.com/i/chat/g993496505750179840 Patrick continues his conversation with Jose from the end of the last hour.
