| 0:08.1 | I'm Chris Elkins with the Denison Forum, narrating today's article written by Dr. Jim Denison. |
| 0:14.5 | You can buy a replica of the iconic Princess Leigh address from the 1977 Star Wars movie for $36.99 or you could have purchased |
| 0:25.3 | the real thing in an auction that closed yesterday. The gown had been expected to bring up to |

| 1:45.1 | Stella brings the family, which turns out to be a story about a girl and her two dads. |
| 1:51.1 | Ideas changed the world for good and for bad. For example, a bill being considered in California |
| 1:57.3 | would make a parent's refusal to affirm their child's transgender identity, grounds for |
