This is an incomplete list of recurring segments featured on The Catholic Guy. The Catholic Guy Show is a radio talk show.

Current segments Discussion segments The following segments feature discussion on a specific topic where callers can interject their opinions:

Ask Lino Anything A derivative of previous question segments, listeners may ask Lino any question they have. Questions vary from those related to Catholic theology to personal questions about Lino's life.

The Eleventh Commandment Not satisfied with just Ten Commandments, Lino or a co-hosts adds one of their own for real-life situations and explains their rationale.

Minor Confessions Listeners call in with things that they have done that aren't truly sins and can't be brought to the Confessional, but are still things that they're not exactly proud of having done.

Not Counting My Blessings The day's co-host and callers pose multiple questions as Lino tried to find the negative attributes in them.

Random Thankfulness Listeners call in and describe the things for which they are randomly thankful. Lino encourages folks to not describe "obvious" things to be thankful for (e.g. God, food, good health), but rather the strange things in our daily lives (e.g. bad commercials, falling trees, warm beer).

Things That Drive You Crazy At Mass Listeners call in and discuss things they have seen happen at Mass that bother them.

Games The following segments are games in which callers can win prizes:

Answer The Question Callers answer Lino's questions relating to both the Church and pop culture. For example, are there more sacraments in the Catholic Church or number of seasons of Walker, Texas Ranger. Each contestant gets five tries, with the prize determined by the number of correct answers given (more correct answers = better prize).

Ask and You Shall Receive Lino gives listeners the opportunity to receive anything they want (within reason), acting in the way God answers prayers easily. The listeners can ask for prizes normally given to game winners (such as a rosary or Lino's books), or they can ask for many other things (such as a tour of the studio).

Don't Be Greedy Lino asks callers a series of questions, one each harder than the other. If they get one right, they win a prize. They can either choose to keep the prize, or forfeit it, being greedy and trying for a better prize with a harder question.

Catholic Password Based on the TV game show Password, two callers are given a Catholic-themed password, then took turns giving one-word clues in an attempt to have Lino guess the password. If he guesses it on the first clue, the person whose clue it is received ten points... the second clue, nine points, and so on until the password was guessed or ten clues are given out. The caller with the most points earns a prize. In earlier versions of the game, Lou and Maureen would compete against each other in seven rounds, with the winner receiving bragging rights until the next time the game was played. Father Rob would also guess passwords in the game prior to his departure.

God's Honest Truth Lino gives callers a Catholic-related statement, and the caller must determine if the statement is a lie or the God's Honest Truth. Each contestant got five tries, with the prize determined by the number of correct answers given.

The Retention Game Usually played after a "Catholic Guy Pilgrimage", Lino plays an audio clip of a pilgrim being asked questions about what they learned on the pilgrimage. Callers do not have to know the answers to the questions, they just have to guess if the pilgrim interviewed will answer the question correctly or not.

Bible or Fortune Cookie First featured on Lino at Large, this segment has callers hearing a verse or short sentence or two and they need to identify whether it is from the bible or a fortune cookie. In 2017, an additional source was added to the game: Mark Hart quotes. Contestants must guess if the quote is from the bible, a fortune cookie, or a quote from Mark Hart.

In-studio segments The following segments are between those in-studio only and do not include caller interaction:

Boring / Traditional Catholic Radio Hearkening back to the good ol' days of "Traditional" Catholic radio, Lino transforms the show into a plodding, glitch-laden, mind-numbing mess to give listeners a taste of what boring Catholic radio sounds like.

Celebrate, Contemplate, Not That Great Tyler names three people or events within a category (such as three Apostles or three holy days of obligation). Lino and his co-host must decide which option they will celebrate, which they will contemplate, and which one is "not that great".

Hot, Rich, or Pious Tyler reads a hypothetical scenario involving an unnamed person. Lino and his co-host for the day must decide if they prefer the unnamed person to be hot, rich, or pious.

This segment had not been featured since October 2011 until its 2016 periodic return.

Lino's Confirmation Sponsor-ee Lino is asked by a young confirmation student to be their sponsor. The "sponsor-ee" calls in to discuss what they learned in class that week, followed by commentary and advice.

Lino's General Audience A takeoff of the General Audience the Pope holds every Wednesday, Lino pontificates on a specific theme of his choosing (after reading the pope's message in Pope Benedict XVI's German accent).

Saint Who?!?! Tyler names a saint (almost always an obscure one). Lino and his co-host discusses said saint, completely making up the saint's history for humorous effect. When they are finished, Tyler reveals the real history of the Saint.

Scathergories Based (loosely) on the party game Scattergories, this game is played in three rounds. Lino selected a letter of the alphabet, then gives playing crewmembers (including himself) 60 seconds to write down words/phrases starting with that letter that describe eight Catholic categories (e.g., a place in the New Testament that begins with the letter 'C'). The answers are then hotly debated amongst the contestants, with one point awarded for each answer deemed acceptable by the majority of players. Extra points are given for alliterative answers, and points are not awarded if a contestant begins their answer with the same word as another contestant's.

This segment was regular feature until September 2011, but had a hiatus due to a lack of on-air crewmembers to play the game. It made a brief return in April 2014 when Father Jim Chern and former producer Lou Ruggieri were guests on the show, and was added back to a periodic rotation in 2016.

Song of Songs Named for the Old Testament book, two crewmembers describe elements of a biblical story with popular songs. The other crewmember decides which song better represents each part of the story.

This Or That Producer Tyler reads hypothetical situations to Lino and gives him two courses of action that he could take. He and cohost then rationalize and argue about their choices.

What's on Tyler's Mind Producer Tyler provides a random question or commentary for Lino to discuss. Spinoffs of the segment include "What's on Lino's Heart", "What's on Mark Hart's Heart", and "What's on a Listener's Mind", along with the former "What's Behind Father Jim's Dumb Glasses", which ended after Father Jim's departure from the show.

Who's Your Daddy/Mamma? Lino asks callers a series of five questions about fathers or mothers of all kinds from the Bible, and each listener needed to get at least 2-of-3 correct to win a prize.

Song Parodies Throughout the years, Lino and crew often sings song parodies, most of which are either of religious significance or about other crew members.

Lenten parodies During Lent 2012, Lino proclaimed his act of penance as being he and Father Rob doing a song parody (nearly) each day. The altered title is followed by the original in parentheses:

"All Lent Long (All Lent)" – ("All Night Long (All Night)") "The Power of Lent" – ("The Power of Love") "Lenten Train" – ("Crazy Train") "Fast Like Lino" – ("Moves Like Jagger") "Nothin' but a Good Lent" – ("Nothin' but a Good Time") "Enter Lent" – ("Enter Sandman") "Let's Talk About Lent" – ("Let's Talk About Sex") "Lent is a Bear" – ("Livin' on a Prayer") "Father Rob (and Lino Rulli)" – ("The 59th Street Bridge Song (Feelin' Groovy)") "It's the End of Lent as We Know It (And We Feel Fine) – ("It's the End of the World as We Know It (And I Feel Fine)")

Lenten song parodies returned for Lent 2013:

"All Lent Long (All Lent)" – ("All Night Long (All Night)") "Always Gonna Give Stuff Up" – ("Never Gonna Give You Up") "Help!" – ("Help!") "Drinking in the Dark" – ("Dancing in the Dark") "Praying for 40 Days" – ("Working for the Weekend") "Nothin' but God's Grace" – ("Nothin' but a Good Time") "(I'm Not) A Badger" – ("(Don't Fear) The Reaper")

Lino and Father Rob sang "All Lent Long (All Lent)" for a final time in 2014 before Father Rob's departure from the show. After a two-year hiatus, Lino and producer Tyler revived Lenten song parodies in 2017:

"We're Not Gonna Eat Meat" – ("We're Not Gonna Take It") "Lenten Penance Blues" – ("Folsom Prison Blues") "Purple" – ("Yellow") "Catholic Man" – ("Rocket Man") "Holding Out for a Penance" – ("Holding Out for a Hero") "Bad Lent" – ("Bad Day") "When You Close Your Eyes (Do You Dream About Meat?)" – ("When You Close Your Eyes (Do You Dream About Me?)") "Now Lent's Done (It's Done)" – ("All Night Long (All Night)")

In 2018, Lenten song parodies returned:

"Put Some Ashes on Me" – ("Pour Some Sugar on Me") "Read It" – ("Beat It") "We're Not Gonna Eat Meat" – ("We're Not Gonna Take It")

2019:

"Don’t Eat Meat On Fridays" – ("We Didn't Start the Fire") "Never Gonna Eat You Up" – ("Never Gonna Give You Up") "Can I Eat Meat Now?" – ("Who Can It Be Now?")

2020:

"Baby Got Ash" – ("Baby Got Back") "No Meat Tonight" – ("December, 1963 (Oh, What a Night)") Due to the 2020 coronavirus pandemic, normal Lenten song parodies were put on hold. The crew then produced Lenten quarantine song parodies:

"Quarantine Time" – ("Closing Time") "Quarantine" – ("Dancing Queen")

Former segments The following segments were featured on the show until its format change in 2013.

Discussion segments Catholic Guy Advice Listeners emailed Lino about difficult situations that they have found themselves in, and Lino and Father Rob advised them on how to deal with the situation. Lino then opened up the phone lines for listeners to give their take.

Father Rob's Righteous Anger Formerly called "Father Rob is Full of Vice", Father Rob told of recent happenings in his life and interactions with people that have really gotten him steamed. Lino and the listeners debated if his anger was "righteous" or not.

Lino's Casting Couch Lino took a story from the Bible, and then asked listeners to cast modern-day actors and actresses in the roles of the main characters from that story, based on who they think would be the best fit.

Mysteries Lino, Father Rob, and the listeners shared puzzling mysteries of day-to-day life, such as driving on a parkway and parking in a driveway or why a person "catches" a cold.

No Dumb Questions (only potentially dumb answers) This segment was open forum for listeners to call in with their questions about the faith and the Catholic Church. Lino and/or Father Rob tried to answer the callers' questions, some of which were quite challenging.

Games 19 Questions Identical in concept to the traditional 20 Questions game, but with one less question just to make it a little different. The moderator had a Saint in mind, and Lino and Father Rob took turns asking "yes or no" questions about that Saint to narrow it down. The first person to guess correctly won points based on how many questions it took; a correct guess on the first question would earn 19 points, with one point subtracted for each additional question asked.
