Patrick takes on urgent Catholic family questions, from the ethics of end-of-life care and DNR orders to how the Church guides parents facing unmarried pregnancies, all while offering advice grounded in faith and honesty. Listeners bring raw stories: fighting off hospital pressure, supporting loved ones at critical moments, and challenging popular fads and misconceptions about everything from mysterious dolls to the origins of “Christ.” Throughout, he infuses the hour with community spirit, rallying support for Relevant Radio’s mission and keeping listeners connected and informed.
