0:11.3	into being transgender. You're not going to believe the latest. We've got all that and more coming
0:16.5	up and it all starts right now.
0:35.2	Horrifying. Hi, welcome to the News and Why It Matters. I'm Sarah Gonzalez and it is Thursday,

0:47.2	Oh, you're still. Mine too. You just say that to all the boys. I noticed that this week. Pat Gray,
