The Patrick Madrid Show: October 03, 2025 - Hour 3

Patrick threads together questions about faith, technology’s grip, cultural shifts, and daily life. He fields calls about Catholic teaching on theft and lying, muses on fast food’s sneaky impact, and considers practical anxieties around technology in schools and choosing partners with shared beliefs. Raw, sometimes wry, and never shying away from the awkward or profound, Patrick moves the conversation seamlessly, from social commentary to the Catechism to heartfelt advice, all while keeping it unmistakably human.   Audio: Turn off the TikTok: No Kings, except for all those other times. (You don’t hate authoritarianism; you just hate what you are told to hate) (00:19) Victoria - Question about lies. What kind of sin is lying? My neighbor is helping himself to my property. (03:11)  Chris - You were talking about distortions of reality. I think you are right, and I am concerned that deep fakes will come on strong. (08:20) Sophia - Thank you so much for giving the Eustace, FL station shout out and for your show! (16:23) Jessica - Does your belief about cell phones extend to computers? Should kids get a personal laptop? Should I seek a school that does that? (21:08) Billy - When Patrick leaves, listeners like us are drifting in the harbor. I feel neglected in the OCIA process, and I need some advice. (31:36) Vivian - What is your advice on children dating people from other religions? Should my daughter go to Protestant boy's church? (35:48) John - When my wife and I consummate the marriage, is it appropriate to disengage in the middle of the act even though we are old? (45:33)
