Patrick discusses a recent Japanese study linking multiple mRNA COVID shots to quicker pancreatic cancer death, then addresses a thirteen-year-old’s quest to engage a neighbor dabbling in Greek paganism—suggesting the Socratic method for meaningful questions instead of preaching. He fields heartfelt, complex questions: one from a husband bracing for cancer surgery and concerned about marital intimacy, another from a listener struggling to respond to anti-Catholic arguments about Mary, and finally a call about the anguish of natural disasters colliding with faith. Calm, practical, and honest, Patrick brings real Catholic thought to urgent, sometimes painful realities.
