Segments and Airings:
27 May 1990 – 11 March 1993 aired each Sunday. I moderated a 10–minute diocesan television segment, ‘Points of Interest’ interviewing 172 guests. We taped in different locations indoors and out! May 27, 1990 we aired the very first interview with my sister, Constance Victoria Monlezun-Darbonne! I wanted to be comfortable and relaxed for the first interview and since she is a professional and owed me for doing the dishes for her many times when growing up; well, I called in the chip!!! She agreed to go first and was wonderful but to this day cannot recall the dishes thing!!
