Speaker 1 (00:01):
With the John and Ben Podcast. Cheers to Dilma making
the world a bitter Tea to.

Speaker 2 (00:06):
The podcast on a Wednesday morning, and we're going to
hear about John doing something very erratic last night.

Speaker 3 (00:13):
Usually too much, too much job for a Tuesday night.

Speaker 2 (00:17):
I do that to you. You mentioned about the kids,
and that's the way that they often attack cleaning up.
Just everything all comes out and stuff. I'm like, just
do a little bit. Then you can do that a
little bit, move on to something else that's just about
then the whole room.

Speaker 4 (00:28):
Yes, you do little bits at a time, you have
to like overhaul the whole thing.

Speaker 2 (00:33):
Achieving again that little bit done and you're cool done.
But then I can go, well, like one drawer and
then do that then the cocause other ones.

Speaker 5 (00:39):
You have to sit aside hours.

Speaker 2 (00:41):
So you can stop at any time easier exactly. I
keep telling them because they they will move everything out
when you want to do it.

Speaker 3 (00:47):
Here, well, you're going to hear about what I've done.
I'm like a child what I've done very surely. But
you love throwing stuff out too in a fit of rage.

Speaker 2 (00:57):
I kind of ignore stuff for a while and I'm like, okay,
and then all of a sudden, I'm like, I'm going
to get stuck into that, and everything's gone.

Speaker 3 (01:03):
Everything goes Do.

Speaker 4 (01:04):
That though, do you go back and you're like, oh,
I should have thrown that out?

Speaker 2 (01:07):
Sometimes sometimes everywhere's that and I'll be like, I took
that a clothing bud I found, Well, that was my
top that was sitting together.

Speaker 4 (01:13):
Where do you throw another people's.

Speaker 2 (01:15):
Thin If something's been there for like dress, I've had
like four weeks of this thing sitting there. I need
to go on an alteration store. Now it's in the
clothing bed.

Speaker 3 (01:25):
Sometimes shots, yeah, I find it the do you find
the dot? There's each lounge aiel sort of living area.
There's a table where just you're put random collection of
items on the dining room table. It's just like if
you don't know where anything else, guys just sits in
the middle too. Do you have one of those tables?

Speaker 5 (01:47):
Yeah, but that's not My husband doesn't let that happen
for long.

Speaker 4 (01:51):
That's where I put my gym bag and like my
stuff on the end of the.

Speaker 3 (01:54):
Dining table is quite a neat person.

Speaker 5 (01:56):
Yeah, and then I get a passagg.

Speaker 4 (01:57):
At the end of the day. He's got this thing
He's like, I'm forcing this new policy. It's a touch
once policy. So he was like, don't put it down
and then attempt to move it later. He was like,
you touch it once, so you get home and you
put it away.

Speaker 2 (02:10):
I'm like, God, it's like dealing with something too, rather
than going I need to do that later, you deal
with it right now, because sometimes you forget later and
I forget about that thing right now. I should probably
pay that bill. You know.

Speaker 4 (02:21):
I have this fun thing where I put things in
the get put rubbish in the garage, and then I'll put.

Speaker 5 (02:25):
It all out later.

Speaker 4 (02:27):
He's like, put it all out at once? Why are
you collecting it in the garage?

Speaker 3 (02:31):
I hear what he said. Maybe being Andrew and me
can live together in a barren laboratory. Nothing.

Speaker 5 (02:39):
I'd love to live with the matter of.

Speaker 3 (02:42):
Enjoyed the podcast tell you what she's troubled times in
the prior cassadel, prior last night. Okay, so I get
home and just in the closets in the bedroom, one
of the bars you know that holds the coat hangers
had snapped.

Speaker 5 (02:57):
Oh I've had that happen.

Speaker 3 (02:59):
Clothes shrewon strewn over the floor, and as as you
tend to do with that space in the house over time,
every period of time, things just pile up in there.
You know, the organization goes out, doesn't become functional, It
doesn't become functional. So I'm like, Okay, these clothes are
all out of here, and being the impulsive and patient psychopath,
I am, I'm like, now's the time to sort the closet.

(03:22):
Seven twelve p Okay. All of a sudden, everything's flying
out the door with shoes, clothes, belts. It's your clothes
or everyone's closed friends, and and then I hear, what
are you doing? I'm not organizing this money. No, I'm
here of a closet. She's like, does it have to
be done?

Speaker 2 (03:39):
Now?

Speaker 3 (03:40):
I know deep down.

Speaker 2 (03:44):
Done.

Speaker 3 (03:45):
She's like, you've got the way you operate, You've got
no systems, You've just shut stuff out. And there's a
mass of pile outside the closet worse in ways. And
I'm like, you know when you are a kid and
you're like, I'm going to clean my room today every
two years and everything goes out the door, and then
you're lose enthusiasm for the project. She's like, you're going

(04:07):
to christ because we're going to Christ, you gonna Crist
you can leave this here and I'm gonna be living
in this giant mound of whatever this is you've created.
And I'm like, no, I'm going to sort it. So
at that point, I'm like, I've got to finish this job.
And then I start finding myself getting frustrated with the
ratio of clothes she has taking up the real estate
and the closet compared to mine. And I tell you what,
if you want to spice up your marriage, definitely bring

(04:30):
this conversation. So I'm like, you've got ninety percent of
the stuff in the closet. And then we got into
a debate back and forth, like she's coming fifty fifty right,
I'm like, let's do that. Let's get them. And then
we got into a side argument over the.

Speaker 2 (04:43):
Hers the most about yeah, we have the except in
my household. That's the other way around. I have ninety
percent of the shoe spaces. You're like, it's all, yeah,
I have more. Yeah, be very fortunate to get stuff
from TV shares. You have TV shows over the years,
and so yeah, and just so, Michael, the closet's pretty
much mine. It's a little bit a little bit like marriage. Yeah,

(05:10):
I can't even put clothes in the garage because it's costumes,
and then I'm taking up ninety percent of the wardrobe
as well. Space.

Speaker 4 (05:16):
What's your space like fifty We had that exact argument.
I say it's fifty fifty. Like, no, I take out
most of the closet. He has to have like to
boys and other rooms. Yeah, so he's like, I can't
even get dressed in my own room.

Speaker 3 (05:30):
Yeah. I tell you what. It's a hot bit of
conversation and the couple's relationship.

Speaker 4 (05:34):
It's always like, when are you going to clean out?
You don't wear half this stuff. I'm like, well, I've
got to find the right job.

Speaker 2 (05:40):
It's a big job. I'll tell you a job.

Speaker 3 (05:43):
I haven't even finished it. I started it last night
and she's right. It is sitting in giant mound.

Speaker 1 (05:48):
On the floor the heads that johnaan Ben podcasts.

Speaker 2 (05:51):
Went to a restaurant with my daughters and my family
with robot waiters. We've been to one. In common Code
wrote oh.

Speaker 3 (05:58):
Yeah, that's that was the first introduction of AI waiters
in New Zealand. Was in the whole Common cond wrote
it all, Yeah, it's.

Speaker 2 (06:05):
Quite good with this one, Yeah, we should go along.
It's good. We'll do a show hout and go along. Yeah.
So they like the least the machines. They've got little
faces on it. They're very robotic, but they should of
travel around. They kind of like glide around. They bring
your meal up and then you grab your meal and
then you're punch in a number and say thank you,
and they go back towards.

Speaker 3 (06:23):
The kit kitchen. And then they basically got like tables
on them that they can or trace sorry that they
can travel the meals around and they when they first
get them, I think they have to sort of met
the restaurant out so they can program and the roots that.

Speaker 2 (06:36):
They they know what number table they need to go to.

Speaker 4 (06:39):
Say anything like yes, it's like thank you.

Speaker 2 (06:42):
Or sometimes they play little music. Sometimes they had the program.
They had sort of music as it sort of came up.
They had a little cat face on the one that
we that we had on.

Speaker 3 (06:51):
It's and I was just like wrote cutting out technology
at the fourth the Elon Musk of New Zealand.

Speaker 2 (06:57):
Yeah, so there's a burger place that's got them, and
we went along to that with the kids.

Speaker 5 (07:01):
Because kids quite lucky for a reason, you don't want
to say that.

Speaker 2 (07:04):
It's Andy's Burgers Sky. Yeah, so it's very cool. So
we went along there to do that and they, you know,
they bring you along your meal and stuff like that.
You can order from an app and they bring it along.
And you know, one of the things I enjoys the
Dad is to make you know, I can make dad jokes, comedy,
make dead jokes and you want to you want a reaction.

(07:24):
I don't care if it's or whatever it is, but
you know, like it's bad jokes now dad jokes. So
you know, for me, I'm like, I'll make a joke
and if I get a reaction, use it an eye roll,
but something audible. I'm happy with it.

Speaker 3 (07:35):
Just to recognize that there was a level of comedy
that was presented. And I get it. So I've been
Stonewall before.

Speaker 2 (07:41):
And you're like, guys something and a me, it's the classics,
and I get it. They get you know, half always,
you know, lunch in the kitchen, you know, those sort
of things, and I get those things don't get a
laugh these days, and that's fine. But on this occasion,
these robot waders, the robot water came over, brought the meal,
got the meal, and then we'd ordered some drinks, and
this time it was a real human. She brought the

(08:02):
drinks over. She involved a third party into the went
over the drinks. I said, wow, the robot waiters are
really realistic looking, aren't they. The waiter thinking I'll get
a laugh out of her, laugh out of my family.
Clearly we all know that she's not a robot, very
different robots. Nothing, and I thought, well, maybe.

Speaker 3 (08:23):
No one hurd the joke you went for around.

Speaker 2 (08:28):
Maybe no one heard the joke. I was like, wow,
these robot waters really realistic, aren't they. Smile from her,
but just kind of like smile, take your drinks sort
of smile. Nothing from the family, just nothing at all.
Drinks got put down way with I was like, guys.

Speaker 5 (08:45):
Did you got the third time?

Speaker 2 (08:47):
But afterwards I was like, hey, guys, what.

Speaker 3 (08:51):
You need to back me up from those situations?

Speaker 2 (08:53):
It's something so yeah, nothing at all from my family.

Speaker 3 (08:56):
So yeah, so you told it on the radio, go down.

Speaker 2 (09:01):
Well, I thought it was going to be slightly better,
but anyway, got the same reaction from yours I did
from a family had to be there situation, but yourself
and she comes over, not a robot. Yeah, and then anyway,
I'm stopping.

Speaker 6 (09:18):
Down the heads that jonaan Ben podcast Loving Bone at
the moment I.

Speaker 4 (09:24):
Think I'm a big fan gets snuck up on this
school dude.

Speaker 2 (09:27):
We've talked to him, like when he first had their
first single. Remember we talked him over zoom and he
did a backflip, but like in his bed room for us.

Speaker 3 (09:34):
Yeah. Yeah, Well, I don't know if he's going to
be back flipping his worried that he was going to
do at flippings.

Speaker 2 (09:42):
He's going to be some boon broke is League or
something like that.

Speaker 4 (09:45):
He does him all the time.

Speaker 3 (09:47):
Yeah, I like landing on his face. You see those
ones on YouTube and then they're unconscious.

Speaker 2 (09:52):
I had a weird moment where him, you know, he
was lovely. He came to a showcase and sang and
I took my kids along and it was awesome and
he went around and talked to him, which is great.
And then I went to get a photo of him
with the kids, and then everyone was like for you know,
it was for the first put the flirst show and
make sure it fleshes because too dark in there. And
I fumbled with my phone a little bit he was
had his arms around my daughters, and so he took

(10:14):
his arms away from my daughters came over to me
within a second, classic gen Z move. The light was on,
the flash light was good to go, and then he
came back to the girls and was like dad things.

Speaker 3 (10:29):
They laughed at me laugh.

Speaker 2 (10:33):
As the flash work. It was right driving home. I
deleted that photo kids punishment.

Speaker 3 (10:38):
You said you love a man who's got the confidence
to wear what I see through lacey top.

Speaker 5 (10:42):
I'm just looking.

Speaker 4 (10:42):
He's wearing like a black sea through lace top. And
he also was like glittery jumpsuits and stuff like Harry styles.
There's something about a man who's comfortable enough and his
masculinity to pull that off.

Speaker 3 (10:52):
Wear my seat through Lacey hoppins to work. You don't
say such a thing. Do you know she's covered that please?

Speaker 2 (11:00):
Yeah? All right?

Speaker 3 (11:00):
For boone though.

Speaker 4 (11:03):
That Jon and beIN podcast, I did see something on
Instagram I wanted to bring to your attention. This is
actually quite vintage. It starts with Oprah and back in
her talk show days. But they found it really interesting
and I've never heard this before.

Speaker 7 (11:17):
Who you eat worth.

Speaker 4 (11:19):
Can affect how your body metabolizes the food. Okay, So
this is why you should never eat with people you don't.

Speaker 8 (11:25):
Like, because your state of awareness will influence how your
food is metabolized. There was a study done in Ohio
State University where they were feeding rabbits diets that were
extremely high in cholesterol, and they found, to their amazement,
there was one group of rabbits that never got the
high cholesterol levels. After a while, they found out that
the technician who was feeding these rabbits, instead of just

(11:46):
throwing the food at them, he would stroke them and
pet them and cuddle them and kiss them and then
feed them the same poisonous food. But now, as a
result of that experience of happiness, they made chemicals inside
their brain and the body that turned the cholesterol. I'm
into a completely different metabolic bathwak.

Speaker 3 (12:04):
So you're wanted us to stroke and nestle against your
neck as you're eating.

Speaker 4 (12:11):
Yeah, so, yeah, you shouldn't eat with people you don't like.
But also at dinner it needs to be a more
affectionate sitting.

Speaker 2 (12:19):
But it's not an affection you know well and now
and again it does most of the time. It's not.

Speaker 3 (12:23):
If you walk in here and I'm messaging Ben's busts
while he's having his carrots and hummers for the morning.
You know what's happening.

Speaker 4 (12:30):
Probably wouldn't blink twice to.

Speaker 3 (12:31):
Be honest, No, I get it. So if you are
in a volatile eating situation, prison must be a fiesco.
Wouldn't you like half the people here want to shank
me and I'm trying to have you dinner.

Speaker 4 (12:42):
Yeah, even just dinner time with toddlers when they're like
throwing it back at you and you're like, what, I
hate this. That's not good for your health.

Speaker 3 (12:50):
Stress eating too, probably not good for your health. So
there's gonna be times where you're not You're not a
fan of everyone you're eating with.

Speaker 2 (12:59):
We just gotta eat, you know, likes my wife up
that I don't sit down. Sometimes if I want, I
just stand up.

Speaker 3 (13:04):
You stand up and eat dinner, dinner around the kitchen.

Speaker 2 (13:07):
Yeah, not every time, but I can stand up around
the kitchen with the kitchen bench with family or sit around.
I'll just stand up.

Speaker 4 (13:12):
You know, I'm so worried about you. It's a very
like constant state of.

Speaker 2 (13:18):
You know, I'm going to go on the table, She'll
go to the table.

Speaker 4 (13:22):
Okay, cool, Your family is eating at the dinner table, and.

Speaker 2 (13:26):
You're my wife, just a man that She's like, well,
I'm going to the table, okay, standing in the kitchen
and you get start on the dishes while people are
still eating, because that.

Speaker 4 (13:37):
Woman deserves the middle thanks going.

Speaker 3 (13:40):
I do appreciate when you take time to sit down
with the family and have din. When you do, it
doesn't happen often because everyone's just on the go. It
is nice.

Speaker 4 (13:49):
It's lovely when they get to teenagers, because we do
that every night.

Speaker 5 (13:52):
We sit down, do you for dinner?

Speaker 3 (13:54):
We said, well, yes, just so many after school activities,
you know, sort of sprawled out at different times. But
you know, when you do all gather around, it's a
lovely it's a wonderful time. Did you do it more often?

Speaker 2 (14:05):
In the next night? Like Ben just heating up at
the by myself?

Speaker 4 (14:09):
Are you so busy at that time of the day
you can't even sit down?

Speaker 2 (14:12):
Sit down myself? Where were the family are sitting around?
I'm just standing up, you.

Speaker 3 (14:17):
Know, and so it's like a plate so weird.

Speaker 2 (14:20):
Yeah, every night, but most nights and well I'm just
gonna stand there while they're kind of you know, they're
sitting around. It's just I'm there. I don't even stand
in the same spot. I'll stand.

Speaker 1 (14:32):
The heads that johnaan Ben podcast.

Speaker 3 (14:34):
After the Afternoon for me yesterday, I was waiting outside,
uh put my daughter up from school yesterday, and like
you've been, I find myself at Lucy and just on
the laptop, you know, knocking off a bit of work
half an hour. Problem though, is we're hitting these you know,
summer summer days. Is the heat that comes blazing into
the vehicle and also the light. I couldn't see the screen,

(14:55):
the laptop screen, and I was like, I need to
do something about them. It's okay. So I had no
other option, but I took my shirt off and I
dangled my shirt you know on the sun visor that
flips down my shirt on that creating a makeshift cars.

Speaker 5 (15:17):
In the car with the laptop on your lap.

Speaker 3 (15:19):
I know how it looks. I know how it looks
like a car curtain. And as if being on your
laptop in your car in the first instance isn't suspicious enough,
but adding a curtain to the situation well, topless topless.
But you always remember those vans back in the day
the old master bongos headed the head of the car curtains,

(15:40):
didn't they the discrete curtain? You're like, geez, some nonsense has.

Speaker 2 (15:45):
Gone on side.

Speaker 3 (15:45):
There isn't there, So there we go. If you do
see me shirtless with a T shirt covering the window
on the laptop, it's all about boards.

Speaker 1 (15:55):
Thet's the johnaan Ben podcast.

Speaker 2 (15:57):
And now Tom Cruise he's in the New Mission, a
post movie. The mission is it was not possible for
how me keeps coming back and doing it again, keeps
on going.

Speaker 4 (16:05):
What number is there?

Speaker 2 (16:06):
I think it's eight or something. I think we figured
out the mission is possible as possible, but it's pretty
cool and the way he steps up the stunts each
time unbelievable.

Speaker 4 (16:16):
Do you think it feels pressure to do something different
every time?

Speaker 3 (16:19):
Probably some of them.

Speaker 2 (16:20):
Being filmed in New Zealand in the South Island.

Speaker 3 (16:22):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (16:23):
I think that helicopter stunt was filmed in New Zealand
because it was one of the only places that would let.

Speaker 2 (16:27):
Him do it.

Speaker 3 (16:31):
Tom Cruise is stunt double, sweetest gig in the world,
just getting him cips coffee and you're.

Speaker 2 (16:36):
Like, I want me to do it. I got this
one so incredible. So here's this footage of him and
the latest trailer for Mission Impossible, hanging off like an
old plane, right.

Speaker 4 (16:44):
It's not like an old red plane where they have
like an open cockpit and he's just standing on the
top of it hanging on.

Speaker 5 (16:51):
And then it goes to do a barrel roll.

Speaker 3 (16:54):
He's on the top of it and he's calmly talking
away as well. Is he.

Speaker 9 (17:03):
Should startle Hi everybody, Hay, I hate a rock but
we're really going to roll.

Speaker 10 (17:10):
We're a lot for the light.

Speaker 3 (17:11):
On fuel and the plane doesn't barrel roll while he's
still dangling off the off the wing. We'll just put
the club up on the spread first.

Speaker 2 (17:20):
Amazing story Matt Damon talks about in an interview of
Like that he had the same stunt guy as Tom Cruise.
Apparently Tom Cruise wanted to do a stunt. The stunt
guy said no, it's too dangerous, and so Tom Cruise
was like, well I fired. The stunt guy was like,
well that's the difference between you. I want to kid
that guy.

Speaker 3 (17:41):
Seemed to know what he was doing.

Speaker 2 (17:42):
To give me another stunt guy. We're going to do that.

Speaker 4 (17:44):
Stunt coordinator, the stunt person like he can for Tom Cruse.

Speaker 2 (17:48):
Yeah, Well, this was the coordinator of the stunt. He's like,
I got rid of that guy. I got someone who
said we could do it.

Speaker 3 (17:53):
It was like, what does he sound like? He's been
to the dentist in the analytics slowly number off.

Speaker 2 (18:01):
Plane. You've actually wing walked on a plane, haven't you.
We strapped into a plane one of the first series
of John Oan being our old, reckingy old plane. We
put you in the ear. You were sort of like
harnessed at that back on top. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (18:14):
Yeah, I definitely look as cool, calm and collected as
Tom Cruise, though.

Speaker 2 (18:22):
I'm so fad take off.

Speaker 1 (18:23):
He has success.

Speaker 2 (18:26):
God, oh my god, that's not the worst thing. What
you just played on radio is the worst thing. Great
anything on that one.

Speaker 3 (18:42):
So we want to know this one different time.

Speaker 2 (18:44):
Yeah, apologies to stripped of the bling of the plane.
You were right now, Yah, Tom Cruise over sixty's sixty
two years old? Yeah, unbelievable, sixty two years old. So
we wanted to know the morning. Have you got someone
over the age of sexy or maybe you're over the
age of sexy doing wild adventurous things. Yeah, have you

(19:08):
swear words on the radio?

Speaker 5 (19:09):
I think that we're doing this on your birthday too.
What are the old people in.

Speaker 2 (19:13):
Your life swearing on the radio.

Speaker 3 (19:16):
It's seventy nine years old?

Speaker 2 (19:18):
Are you what are you doing?

Speaker 3 (19:19):
Have you pushed your grandma out of a plane strapped
with it, you know, go pro to her harness? Have
you based as your granddad base jumped off the skytower?

Speaker 2 (19:28):
Probably not, He's a ludicrous. My grandma used to made
tests and high heels wild.

Speaker 7 (19:34):
I thought baking.

Speaker 2 (19:36):
She didn't roll an ankle one time, and I was like,
anyway as she stuck to it.

Speaker 3 (19:41):
And then you said you had to walk up.

Speaker 2 (19:44):
Like crawled her way home back in North Caniberak. I
tried to, but I couldn't even anyway, but you could have.

Speaker 4 (19:50):
Been like sounds like a very weakly skin.

Speaker 3 (19:51):
I tried to the whole tip high heels.

Speaker 1 (19:55):
You don't need to the heads that johnaan Ben podcast.

Speaker 2 (20:00):
People over the age of sixty, It's happened quite a
lot in New Zealand. Just looking bungee jumping a lot
of it for people in their nineties. Bungee jumping in
New Zealand.

Speaker 4 (20:08):

Speaker 2 (20:10):
It, well maybe not ninety one. Someone jumped off in
Queenstown ninety six year old John that jumped again down
South as well. Incredible.

Speaker 3 (20:19):
It's an interesting proposition, isn't it. If you start all
these activities, like you know, if I was today to
go out and buy Harley Davidson with flames painted down
the side of it, be that'd be labeled as a
midlife crisis, you know. But then you get to the
age of seventy five eighty, you're like, oh, good on them.

Speaker 2 (20:35):
If you want to do that, do that. You know,
if you want to get a motor bat with frames
on it, and then someone might say you haven't get
You're like, maybe I am, but two kids, Yeah, make
yourself happy.

Speaker 3 (20:43):
Yeah I'm not. I'm not in the market for a
motivating with flames just an example. I say that if
you did do it, we would talk on a back.

Speaker 2 (20:50):
Yeah, that's a right you need to.

Speaker 1 (20:51):
You know.

Speaker 2 (20:52):
It's good to try new things though, otherwise you get
stuck your ways. Maybe I won't take up the motiva,
riding or golf or something's not too crazy crazy or
lawn bowls or something wild like walking. No, it's just
man hobbies. But yeah, right, it's not crazy, not crazy.

Speaker 3 (21:15):
We're talking over sixties, the adrenaline junkies. Now, Selena, is
this someone in your family?

Speaker 7 (21:22):
Hi?

Speaker 11 (21:22):
Yes, so this is my nana.

Speaker 3 (21:24):
What has she done?

Speaker 11 (21:26):
So it was in the sixties. She was a pleased woman,
so I wasn't winters old, but she's still very much
the same. She was working the security for a mcgegger
concert and he told her to go get her some
fish and chips, and she told him to stop off
because she wasn't a slave.

Speaker 2 (21:45):
Oh, I told mc jagger, yes, you're not a boss
of me on that ninety one?

Speaker 4 (21:53):
Did she she knew who was obviously?

Speaker 9 (21:57):
Yeah?

Speaker 11 (21:57):
Yeah, no, she said she taking in the sixties, being
a woman working, especially in an industry like the police,
that you have to hold your ground, and she did
and didn't matter that it was mac jack and she
still did.

Speaker 4 (22:11):
It's pretty wild him saying to a police officer like,
go and give me some actually stuff off.

Speaker 3 (22:18):
He certainly reached a level of fame where he's just
demanding things from people and seeing.

Speaker 2 (22:22):
How fairy can.

Speaker 5 (22:25):
I love that?

Speaker 3 (22:26):

have too much entertainment on at one time here in
the country.
