The Patrick Madrid Show: September 23, 2025 – Hour 1

Cardinal Dolan’s comparison of Charlie Kirk to St. Paul sparks conversation about Catholic faith, hardened hearts, and public witness, while questions from callers lead Special Guest Host Cale Clarke to break down tricky Gospel passages and the surprising power of forgiveness, all between musings on tacos and college life. Context shifts quickly, laughter mixes with reflections on tough spiritual truths, and the energy never drops.

  • Tom – This past Sunday’s Gospel was about the dishonest steward. What is a promissory note and what is happening when he calls in the servants? (29:57)
  • Randy – Have you ever heard the theory that the Gospel you read is all about praying for the souls in Purgatory? (38:17)
  • What did Luke’s Gospel mean to those who first read it? (41:22)
