Caller enjoying your show very much and your two guests as well very much. I was wondering was julia a religious person and i was wondering about her conversion to catholicism and how that influenced her later life. Do you know. I will leave julia to talk about her. Was she religious . Not really, but she does join the Catholic Church later in life and im not sure why she actually does that.
