The Patrick Madrid Show: October 24, 2025 - Hour 2

Patrick answers raw, honest questions with equal measures of wit and compassion, tackling everything from offensive billboards and noisy kids at Mass to the ethics of cash payments and the emotional turbulence families face after loss. Authentic dilemmas, like the struggle over family members consulting mediums or the complexities behind sacraments and relics, get straight talk grounded in scripture and Catholic wisdom. Real people call, Patrick answers, nothing glossed over. Jennifer (email) – There is an offensive billboard advertisement on property that my family owns (01:32) Gayle (email) - I heard a priest tell someone who was complaining about noisy children at Mass tell them: be careful how you criticize! You are probably going to need people to pray for you in purgatory! (07:24) Anne - How can I tell my family members that going to mediums is not biblical? (13:44) Kaley (email) - The priest who baptized me was found to be a pedophile, since he was in a state of mortal sin is my baptism valid? (21:50) Angie (email) - My boyfriend is in RCIA and when filling out paperwork, one question was if he was ever married, and he was (now divorced). Will this be an issue if we want to get married even though he wasn’t married in the church? Max (email) - Is it a sin to accept a cash payment (27:24) Kat (email) - Thank you for sharing Toastmasters as a way to improve public speaking skills. (37:48) Miles (email) - What do you think of Confirmation around the age 12, before they enter the turmoil of the teenage years? Eric - How is it that the Church has acquired 1st class relics if we are supposed to respect the dead? (42:41) Kathleen - How do we know if the Saint we are praying to is in heaven? My Protestant friend is saying that person could be in hell. (48:37) Originally Aired on 08-14-2025
