The Patrick Madrid Show: August 17, 2026 - Hour 1

Patrick welcomes listeners with raw accounts of faith found and sometimes lost, the sting of family tension over life choices, and the small yet powerful traditions that bind parents and children during rites of passage. He moves between heartfelt confessions and conversations with practical tips for speaking hard truths without letting go of love, even when differences seem insurmountable. Calls pour in, stories unfold, tears mix with laughter, and the spirit of generosity pulses as pledges come in for Relevant Radio’s mission.   Audio: For incoming freshmen at Bishop Kelley High School in Tulsa - give their mothers a goodbye kiss - https://x.com/CBSSunday/status/2089002121408455075/video/1?s=46 Greg - Adult daughter is living with another woman.
