| 0:14.8 | It's the Patrick Madrid show on Relevant Radio. |
| 0:19.6 | Thank you for listening. |
| 0:21.8 | 888-9149. |

| 0:25.7 | She says, |
| 0:26.1 | My husband and I received an invitation to attend the wedding of a former priest. |
| 0:30.7 | He went through all the proper steps toward laicization, but we are still a bit uncomfortable, |
