Patrick welcomes listeners into a lively morning with questions about faith, charity, and the nature of love, then responds to concerns about distractions at Mass and the interest generated by a celebrity priest’s arrival. He fields honest questions about Catholic teaching, addresses anxieties over returning to church after spiritual wandering, and doesn’t shy away from challenges such as the Church’s approach to slavery and capital punishment. Perspectives on the spiritual depth of Catholic radio and the balance between religious and political topics surface, threading through the episode’s honest, unscripted exchanges.

• Tyrone (email) - What does “love covers a multitude of sins” mean? (01:01)
• Allison - How can I not be frustrated with visitors to my parish who are coming to see a Catholic speaker who is a priest? (05:39)
• Chrissy - Is it licit to have white wine at Mass? (12:23)
• Monica - You are exactly right about closing your eyes during Mass. A young man and his mother were very distracting to me. I was charitable and was rewarded for it. (15:01)
• Aaron - I left the Church for about 1 year. Should I receive the Eucharist without going to Confession first? (18:56)
• Ron - Does Relevant Radio put spiritual life first. I think that when the rubber hits the road, selling books or politics takes precedence over the spiritual. (31:47)
• Steve - The Pope apologized for slavery. Why did Jesus never talk about slavery? (43:02)
• Laura – I agree with Ron that some programs aren't exactly fully related to Catholic things, some conversations are political in nature or partisan in nature. (49:19)
