| 0:06.4 | If you're stuck in a relationship quandary, or if you're looking for sexual harmony, |
| 0:16.1 | well, there's nothing you can't ask on the Savage Lovecast. |
| 0:24.7 | On the July 1st episode of the Ezra Klein Show from Vox, I never miss an episode. |
| 0:29.2 | I'm a total Ezra fan girl. |
| 0:31.1 | Ezra spoke with the head of the Public Religion Research Institute and the author of |
| 0:34.9 | The End of White Christian America, Robert Jones. During their convo |
