Patrick opens with a compelling reflection on freedom, government power, and the meaning of self-government in America, weaving in a personal story from a Cuban immigrant and a quote from President Reagan. Throughout the conversation, Patrick takes on everything from questions about authentic Catholic voices in a world thick with AI and misinformation to concerns about Church leadership, historical contradictions, and the real risks of relying on opinions rather than fact.
