Fr. Robert Sirico joins PragerU CEO @realtalkwithmarissa to discuss his journey from left-wing activism in Hollywood to becoming a leading defender of free markets and of virtue. They examine why socialism confuses coercion with compassion, why families and faith—not government—form moral citizens, and why the right is not immune from chaos, conspiracy, and spiritual confusion. Fr. Robert Sirico reminds viewers Catholics must reject antisemitism and resist using the Church for political or financial power.
