• Patrick continues his conversation with Job from the end of the previous hour. He tells Patrick, “There was a tremendous amount of infidelity on my wife part (who’s in the public eye) and I slapped her.  My children hate me.  We are separated but we don’t have an annulment.  I don’t know how to approach her.  How do I get through to my kids that I’m the good guy?” (00:38)
• Mary – My son is cut off from his father.  We’ve been divorced for 30 years.  I’ve not dated, but my ex-husband was a repeat adulterer.  How could my son honor his father in this situation? (11:29)
• Don – I’ve read recently that many Catholics are not registered to vote in the elections and those registered don’t bother to vote.  I heard from a priest that it’s an obligation for Catholics to vote.  Where does this come from? (17:38)
• John – The NAVY Seals are hunting drug cartels in Venezuela and they withheld last rites from a drug dealer unless he gave up important information. (21:04)
