Patrick opens with a frank discussion on how technology and social media reshape relationships, delaying family life and changing old traditions like school dances, as he wonders aloud about the pressures weighing on today’s youth. Callers bring up everything from biblical analogies and the emotional pull of spiritual experiences to Pope John Paul II’s quiet influence on the fall of the Soviet Union, who would Jesus vote for, and even the morality of shopping at Costco.
