    The Patrick Madrid Show: March 20, 2026 - Hour 1

    Patrick tackles layered questions about the Mass, clarifying that each celebration draws believers into Christ’s original sacrifice at Calvary, never repeating it. Calls pour in about marriage, confession, and salvation; Patrick listens, guides, and responds with honesty and warmth, urging listeners to confront their histories and trust God’s mercy while offering unflinching advice on overcoming stumbling blocks.   Eric (email) - Is the sacrifice that happens at each Mass distinct from Calvary and any other Mass (i.e. is Jesus sacrificed multiple times?) OR is the sacrifice of every Mass a participation in some mysterious way in the sacrifice of Calvary (i.e. Jesus was only sacrificed once and for all at Calvary)? (01:01) Kathy - I was married in the Lutheran Church and got divorced after 15 years. I got remarried and divorced again years later. Was I committing adultery the 2nd time? (07:01) Jim - If you are a Protestant, would you be welcome in heaven like Catholics are? Do Catholics get into heaven first? (17:18) Marty - What about the thief on the cross? How could Jesus have accepted him? (36:47)

    The Patrick Madrid Show: March 20, 2026 - Hour 2

    Patrick welcomes listeners with an update from Cat on her journey into the Catholic Church and shares genuine advice on Sunday obligations, confession, and true presence in the Eucharist—all through candid, everyday conversations. From exploring concerns about pop culture and spiritual influences to tackling questions about why Catholics refrain from non-Catholic communion, Patrick moves fluidly between heartfelt encouragement and sharp theological clarity.   Cat - I called in 2023 asking about Confession and am now I’m becoming Catholic because of you. (00:59) Patrick shares Cat’s call from 2 years ago - https://relevantradio.com/2023/06/the-patrick-madrid-show-why-the-seal-of-confession-can-never-be-broken/ (03:26) George - Is it ok to visit homes with a realtor on Sundays? (10:42) Patrick in Trenton, NJ - I want to add to Marty's question (from the end of the first hour). Staying in communication with God is what helps me. I find myself losing patience, but when I remember this, it helps. (17:58) Brian - Does everything we are surrounded by have the ability to be possessed? (I am thinking of Harry Potter Books and Pokémon cards). Do we have free will? (20:50) Dan - Isaiah 6:1 refers to the Lord of Hosts and before then it talks about a Seraphim. It seems to suggest this angel is not just spiritual. If they have reproductive organs, are little angels being made? (26:42) Jerry - I heard that Catholics shouldn’t receive communion in a non-Catholic Church. Did Christ descend into hell? (41:25)

    The Patrick Madrid Show: March 20, 2026 - Hour 3

    Listener calls propel Patrick into discussions about sainthood, last-minute conversions, Catholic sacraments, and the curious details of Miraculous Medals, blending humor with answers that challenge assumptions. The episode moves quickly, mixing quick banter and layered reflections on faith, making the experience both unpredictable and direct.   Chuck Norris has passed away. (00:46) David - If a person receives the sacraments a couple days before they die and they don’t sin, will they become a saint? (06:03) Gaby - You mentioned something that made me rethink myself. You are grateful for what you do, and it made me think more about what I do at my job. (09:01) Jim - Can a Protestant receive Confession if they have already been baptized and agree the priest has the authority to forgive sins? Can someone about to enter the Church receive the sacrament? (14:02) Joseph - What does the star on the top of the Miraculous Medal mean? I have heard those are cursed. (19:09) Angel - I remember Chuck Norris as a mellow and kind person. Do we know anything about St. Jospeh's parents? (30:57) Mel - I have trouble understanding that if I went to another Church that I couldn't take Communion. Can you explain this? (33:48)

    The Patrick Madrid Show: March 19, 2026 - Hour 1

    Patrick answers questions about defending Catholic colleges, the making of a Doctor of the Church, and the encounter between Jesus and John the Baptist, all while fielding candid conversations about spiritual warfare and practical Christian living. Laughter, debate, and encouragement ripple through as Patrick threads practical theology with the unfiltered experiences of real people.   Patrick starts the show sharing some emails that came in just after yesterday’s show about stretching money and enjoying life (01:07) Jennifer - How do I defend Catholic colleges supporting abortion to my non-Catholic family members? (06:11) Stanley - Will Pope Benedict 16 be declared a Doctor of the Church. Does a Doctor of the Church need to be declared a saint first?

Olivia - I was watching Jesus of Nazareth last night. When was the first time that John the Baptist and Jesus meet? (34:21) Anna - What you are saying about the occult is NOT sufficient about the sacraments and spiritual warfare. (40:42)

    The Patrick Madrid Show: March 19, 2026 - Hour 2

    Patrick opens with thoughts on how smartphones at the table subtly alter relationships, then fields calls about forgotten saints like Hildegard of Bingen, the oddities of canonization, and whether attending a bridal shower at a cohabiting couple’s place sends the wrong message. Questions zigzag across everything from the possibility of George Harrison’s late return to faith, the connection between classic movie scores and traditional masterpieces, to the enigma of why people say "River Jordan" instead of "Jordan River." Humor, moral wrestling, and unpredictable detours abound as Patrick guides listeners through faith, music, and modern life’s small provocations.   Audio: Simon Sinek explains phone addiction and how it impacts our relationships - https://x.com/DudespostingWs/status/2034239162065281520?s=20 (00:19) Brady - Why is St. Hildegard swept under the rug or forgotten? (04:12) Richard - Is there a correlation between Classical Music and the Doctors of the Church? Could you say that the Beatles would be considered as Beethoven or Bach was? (08:24) Audio: George Harrison and John Lennon talk about having money -  https://youtube.com/shorts/5rM41yhWkgw (17:00) George - I think you are hanging up a bit on the term Classical music. It is the staying power that makes it classical. (20:50) Elva - Could it be possible that Elizabeth told John about Jesus in the womb? (23:35) Stuart - Was St. John spared a violent death because he took Mary in? What could the reason be? Why was he spared? (26:26) Colleen - How do I handle a family situation involving cohabitation? My cousin and fiancée are living together. Can I attend the wedding? (33:28) Trish - I am a big Beatles fan and heard George converted back to Christianity when he had cancer. (35:20) Geri - St. Hildegard has some wonderful liturgical music. Jim - I think scores from movies are the closest we can get to modern classical music. Is the Iran War a moral or just war? (39:52)

    The Patrick Madrid Show: March 19, 2026 - Hour 3

    Patrick steers the conversation through Modern Catholic life’s challenges, from offering Mass intentions and the speculative role of guardian angels, to questions about boycotting Costco after learning it sells IVF drugs, blending clear Church teaching with practical advice. He also confronts antisemitism head on by sharing Archbishop Alexander Samples' audio message from the US Bishops Conference condemning antisemitism, explores what “chosen people” means, and offers commentary on the related issue of Christian Zionism.   Maureen - I thought that you were supposed to give your intention to your guardian angel during Mass.  (38:20) Maria - Can I be a member of Costco after they made IVF drug prices lower? (05:38) Michelle - Can the people in Purgatory pray for us? Also, what is the resurrection of condemnation?

Was this right to have in a Catholic Church? (40:16) Rose - My nephew is going into the armed forces, is that a sin? Also is Purgatory years and years? (41:59)

    The Patrick Madrid Show: March 18, 2026 - Hour 1

    Patrick answers uncomfortable questions that demand clarity and real answers about family dilemmas surrounding IVF and awkward moments at Mass. He speaks straight, whether addressing baptism without parental consent, why Catholics shouldn’t receive communion in Methodist services, or confronting end-of-life trials with medical decisions. Every call sparks his candor and keeps the conversation both grounded and utterly unpredictable.   Email - What is the best response to a relative who is excited to tell you that her daughter and husband are going through IVF and they have three embryos? (01:15) April - Why isn't there any historical evidence for Jesus outside of the Bible and Christian literature? (10:01) Judy (email) - There are several times during mass when people hold their hands facing up and then go even higher with their hands. I wonder where that came from and what you think. (15:28) Jim - IVF does affect medical workers too. Our sonogram technician was shaken because she said people decide which babies live and which ones die. (20:53) Rebecca - I grew up Catholic and my grandmother was Methodist, but they celebrated Communion. Was it ok for me to take Communion with them? (23:15) Anna - Does a grandparent have the authority to get grandchild baptized without parent's approval? (29:01) Patty (email) – Are you not aware that OCIA programs are flourishing? (33:21) Talina - Who created God? (35:05) Angie - My brother-in-law is declining and we are doing extraordinary means to keep him alive. Is it ok for us to stop medication. (44:08)

    The Patrick Madrid Show: March 18, 2026 - Hour 2

    Patrick responds to heartfelt listener questions about Catholic teaching, including faith and works, the fate of unbaptized infants, extraordinary medical care, and personal experiences at healing masses. His mix of scriptural insight, compassion, and candid conversation with Cyrus results in authentic exchanges, there’s compassion for the uncertain, clear explanations when doctrine feels confusing, and encouragement for those walking through grief or doubt. In the mix, Patrick reminds listeners that trust in God’s mercy and a practical approach to Catholic life matter as much as answers do.   Joe – What is Eternal Life? Also, I don't see why the Church would be against grandma baptizing the baby. (01:54) Colleen - Is laying on of hands, including in the Charismatic Renewal, ok? (11:32) Teri - I want to make a comment about being slain in the Spirit. I used to be so against it and only the Holy Spirit can take you. It was the most peace I ever felt. (17:58) Kevin - My dad was in a Catholic hospital. He asked the priest if he could receive the Anointing of the Sick. The priest said no because he was Episcopalian. Could I request Masses for my father? I found out he was conditionally baptized as a Catholic. (24:11) Rob - What is the Catholic understanding of works and grace? (36:04)
