A while back I was contacted by a Womens big book study group that records their meetings and they asked if I was interested in using them on the podcast, my answer was a very definite yes. This is the first one of those recordings (there will be more) and its on the chapter, To Wives.
This is a part of the book that doesnt get a lot of love for various reasons, I was really happy to see this was one of the topics covered by this group and thought it a great first podcast, it is presented by Kate and Kate.
There is a slight buzz in this recording that I could not remove, its not really prominent however it is noticeable but not so annoying that it precluded using it.

Keith D from Yorba Linda California tells his story at an unknown event in Nashville Tennessee in July of 1989. This sounds like it was a convention or roundup, its a really good recording for the age and Keith is a pretty funny guy.
