| 0:00.0 | Welcome to the awesome marriage podcast. I'm your co-host, Christina Dodson. This is an Ask |
| 0:06.0 | Dr. Kim segment where people submit their questions for Dr. Kim Kim, and he answers them. |
| 0:11.2 | Thanks for listening. Today I asked Dr. Kim, the question is, my husband plays video games and it |
| 0:18.5 | drives me crazy. Is it okay for grown men to play video games? |
| 0:23.3 | What a great question. |
| 0:24.3 | And I think one that a lot of women out there and a lot of wives are wondering because |
