0:25.5

I mean, it's a simple thing, but it really irritates me. You can kind of feel that.

0:29.9

1:37.3

So, John, I look back at what you just said about you and your wife having a little disagreement

1:42.4

this morning. And I think in that moment, what Satan wants more than anything is to get you fighting
