The Patrick Madrid Show: August 24, 2026 - Hour 3

Patrick examines the Lindsay Clancy case, confronting the chilling reality of a mother accused of murdering her children while the public, especially thousands of women, rallies behind her and raises over a million dollars for her support. He questions why such empathy arises, weaving links between mental illness, postpartum struggles, deep-seated cultural attitudes, and the uncomfortable lines where compassion and responsibility collide. As callers voice firsthand stories and ethical hypotheticals, the conversation jolts listeners to grapple with the raw consequences of conflicting beliefs on guilt, justice, and forgiveness.   Why the Lindsay Clancy Case Is Dividing Americans (00:34) Judy - Postpartum Depression can really be issue that needs to be addressed (15:27) Andrew - These medications really caused her to do something she would never want to do in the first place (21:15) Kathy - Seems like this case is being turned into a circus and entertainment is not focusing on the people at the heart of it.
