The Patrick Madrid Show: January 02, 2026 - Hour 2

Patrick guides listeners through questions about returning to the Catholic Church, healing from addiction, and navigating confession after years away. He shares practical, sometimes unexpected advice—like tossing out smartphones to resist temptation—while weaving spontaneous memories of MTV and music videos into the conversation. Callers bring vulnerability, and Patrick meets them with gentle candor, shifting seamlessly from spiritual challenges to lighthearted cultural moments.   Jake (email) – What would it take to come home?
