So first half twenty 0:01:44.800 --> 0:01:53.200 twenty five has been completed. You made it for some 0:01:53.280 --> 0:01:57.200 of us. That's it's a pretty big dale.

I do about the same thing every 0:03:24.160 --> 0:03:27.960 fourth of July, same thing. And I'm not saying that 0:03:28.240 --> 0:03:33.560 with like angst. I'm saying that with you know, the 0:03:33.600 --> 0:03:36.560 love of consistency and the love of the friends that 0:03:36.600 --> 0:03:40.080 I get to enjoy it with our friend of the pod. 0:03:40.160 --> 0:03:44.640 You've you've heard him many many times, Eric, who's given 0:03:44.720 --> 0:03:49.920 us all his stories from Europe and everywhere else. He 0:03:50.080 --> 0:03:53.480 his parents they throw a heck of a barbecue, so 0:03:53.600 --> 0:03:57.360 we have we've enjoyed going there and hanging out and 0:03:57.520 --> 0:04:00.640 the kids, I mean the kids have grown literally from 0:04:00.800 --> 0:04:04.640 babies to teenagers. Where are now going to this barbecue 0:04:04.640 --> 0:04:06.000 on the fourth July. So it's been a lot of 0:04:06.000 --> 0:04:10.560 fun this year. New addition to the party, okay, actually 0:04:10.600 --> 0:04:12.560 two new editions. We're gonna get to the second one 0:04:12.640 --> 0:04:15.360 later in the pod. But the first new edition shot 0:04:15.400 --> 0:04:18.480 some darts out on the front porch. That was fun. 0:04:18.640 --> 0:04:22.400 Never shot darts on the front porch before. Actually not 0:04:22.480 --> 0:04:25.440 a bad place to do it too. Weather w wasn't 0:04:25.480 --> 0:04:29.520 too bad. Got a little hot on the porch. You know, 0:04:29.600 --> 0:04:32.320 the air doesn't circulate quite as well there. It was 0:04:32.400 --> 0:04:34.360 kind of on the side of the house. Then there's 0:04:34.400 --> 0:04:36.839 you know, the neighbors houses kind of next to it 0:04:36.880 --> 0:04:42.280 there too, so you know, probably you know what, if 0:04:42.320 --> 0:04:47.719 I had any notes for you, not feed a jerk. Okay, 0:04:47.720 --> 0:04:51.800 first of all, not being a jerk, but if I 0:04:51.839 --> 0:04:55.360 had any notes for you, they just maybe plug in 0:04:55.400 --> 0:04:57.120 a fan over there. I mean it was an electric 0:04:57.240 --> 0:05:00.680 dart board, so we were running power. I could definitely 0:05:00.720 --> 0:05:04.680 see us hooking up a fan and just you know, 0:05:04.760 --> 0:05:08.400 getting uh, getting a little bit of air circulation going. 0:05:09.240 --> 0:05:12.800 Not a joke, Johnny, that was real. Notes I wrote it. 0:05:12.839 --> 0:05:16.479 I haven't written right in front of me notes for 0:05:16.560 --> 0:05:21.280 the barbecue. Great food though we always get them chicken wings, 0:05:21.320 --> 0:05:26.120 some smoke turkey. It's a beautiful thing. A lot of 0:05:26.120 --> 0:05:32.479 people it's hot dogs and burgers. On the fourth I've 0:05:32.560 --> 0:05:34.800 done that. It's just it's been a long time and 0:05:34.880 --> 0:05:37.400 that's one of the things that really threw me for 0:05:37.440 --> 0:05:42.039 a loop. The second day. Okay, so July fifth, So, 0:05:42.960 --> 0:05:45.160 like I said, I didn't eat hot dogs. I didn't 0:05:45.160 --> 0:05:48.520 eat burgers on the fourth of July. A lot of 0:05:48.520 --> 0:05:52.320 people do. So I'm at work the next day because 0:05:52.360 --> 0:05:55.680 your boy works in retail, doesn't get the holiday weekends off, 0:05:55.720 --> 0:05:58.000 you know, Great for you guys that you know the 0:05:58.040 --> 0:06:00.799 fourth falls on a Friday, and it's like, hey, long weekend. 0:06:01.120 --> 0:06:04.400 My jet out early Thursday, have Friday off for the fourth. 0:06:05.040 --> 0:06:08.480 Got the weekend off, like the hush, here we go, 0:06:08.600 --> 0:06:11.039 long weekend. Good for you guys. If you can get it, 0:06:11.080 --> 0:06:15.279 get it, Okay. I am one hundred percent not the 0:06:15.360 --> 0:06:19.040 guy that's been like if you you know, I should 0:06:19.040 --> 0:06:21.479 have it too. If I can't have it, known, tryworker retail. 0:06:21.839 --> 0:06:24.120 That's the business I'm in. So I get it. That's 0:06:24.440 --> 0:06:28.440 not a big deal. If you can get it, get it. 0:06:29.000 --> 0:06:30.800 But here's the thing. I did work on the fifth. 0:06:30.839 --> 0:06:34.880 Early in the morning on the fifth, so was I 0:06:35.080 --> 0:06:39.799 was preparing food in our kitchen at our little gas station. 0:06:41.360 --> 0:06:49.360 Here I am loading up cheeseburgers, chicken sandwiches. Nobody bought 0:06:49.360 --> 0:06:54.479 it to that day. They always sell, They always sell. 0:06:55.440 --> 0:06:59.919 They did not sell on Saturday the fifth, but pizza slices, 0:07:00.080 --> 0:07:03.440 holy cow, they were a flying and they normally do 0:07:03.760 --> 0:07:07.080 It's just it was quite the spike, and I wasn't 0:07:07.120 --> 0:07:12.800 prepared to not sell cheeseburgers and chicken sandwiches, so um. 0:07:14.320 --> 0:07:19.360 Quickly I get home kind of like running through the brain, 0:07:19.440 --> 0:07:23.400 talking out loud, just kind of going through what's up? Yeah, 0:07:23.720 --> 0:07:27.520 you idiot? People were eating hot dogs and burgers like 0:07:27.560 --> 0:07:31.160 it's a bowl of candy on the table on the 0:07:31.160 --> 0:07:33.280 fourth of July. That that's the last thing they want 0:07:33.680 --> 0:07:36.840 on the fit. So another note, that's a note for me. 0:07:36.880 --> 0:07:40.640 Are you get a fan, get some circulation going outside 0:07:40.640 --> 0:07:43.920 on the porch for darts. I will make a note 0:07:44.000 --> 0:07:50.600 on the menu for the day after the fourth. Okay, 0:07:50.600 --> 0:07:56.000 everybody's learning today? Is this? This is now? So we'reports 0:07:56.040 --> 0:07:59.800 post fourth, We're in the second half of twenty twenty. 0:08:00.400 --> 0:08:03.280 This is the dog days of summer, right, because I 0:08:03.320 --> 0:08:06.920 was really I was trying to think, what actually is 0:08:07.000 --> 0:08:10.320 the dog days of summer? Is it not till we 0:08:10.360 --> 0:08:14.440 get into August where the heat and the sunny days 0:08:14.440 --> 0:08:17.840 are really starting to wear on us? Is it September? 0:08:19.520 --> 0:08:23.080 Because September, yeah, it's it's hot, but I don't quite 0:08:23.200 --> 0:08:27.280 remember it being And that's the thing. Every year, you know, 0:08:27.320 --> 0:08:29.440 you go through these the different seasons. You go through 0:08:29.440 --> 0:08:32.680 the year and you're like, man, it's it's so hot. 0:08:33.080 --> 0:08:35.800 It just I forgot how hot it gets. Or you 0:08:35.840 --> 0:08:39.360 get to winter and hey, I forgot how cold it gets. 0:08:41.360 --> 0:08:45.120 I even at my forty two years old, I forget. 0:08:45.760 --> 0:08:47.800 At what point in the summer I start to really 0:08:47.840 --> 0:08:50.680 get pissed off at the heat. When is that? When's 0:08:50.720 --> 0:08:55.920 the dog days of summer? I'm counting now? To me, 0:08:56.080 --> 0:08:58.400 it's like I'm enjoying summer. You know, the summer doesn't 0:08:58.440 --> 0:09:01.000 technically start to the twentieth of June shout out me 0:09:01.040 --> 0:09:06.240 happy birthday.

That stuff you just don't know what you're 0:13:50.480 --> 0:13:53.440 getting yourself into. Like I know, each firework has QR code. 0:13:53.480 --> 0:13:55.760 We're it'll show you a little video of what it does. 0:13:56.280 --> 0:14:00.520 Who's watching all those? Are there people actually studying what 0:14:00.600 --> 0:14:05.680 the firework does before they make the purchase or do 0:14:05.720 --> 0:14:07.559 they buy them? And then they're looking at the QR 0:14:07.600 --> 0:14:13.360 coat like who's doing that. I only did to one, 0:14:14.679 --> 0:14:17.320 and that's because we we lit up like ten of 0:14:17.320 --> 0:14:19.400 them and they were circling out of control and I 0:14:19.440 --> 0:14:21.280 was concerned they was gonna hit the neighbor's house or 0:14:21.280 --> 0:14:26.680 our house or something. Can't be having that. It is 0:14:26.720 --> 0:14:29.280 fun to light the fireworks, though, especially when you have kids. 0:14:29.320 --> 0:14:32.360 Some people will be like, no, no, no, kids, they're 0:14:32.760 --> 0:14:36.000 I have teenagers. They're lighting fireworks up under my supervision, 0:14:36.400 --> 0:14:38.920 and I'm one hundred percent there hovering more for them 0:14:39.160 --> 0:14:41.680 to make sure it's all good, and I will I 0:14:41.840 --> 0:14:46.680 will throw myself in between the danger zone if I 0:14:46.760 --> 0:14:53.240 have to. I don't want to, but I will. But 0:14:53.440 --> 0:14:56.640 lighting the fireworks is always fun. I enjoyed a little show. 0:14:56.720 --> 0:15:03.680 Get that smoke going. Keep the Misa gquitos away. Proven fact, 0:15:03.720 --> 0:15:10.160 red haired people tracked mosquitoes more than anybody else. This 0:15:10.320 --> 0:15:16.560 is a fact. Google that shit. But yeah, no, I 0:15:16.600 --> 0:15:18.960 love I just love the atmosphere. You got all the 0:15:18.960 --> 0:15:22.479 other neighbors blowing them up, and it's all around the neighborhood. 0:15:22.520 --> 0:15:24.480 You know. The drive home from the barbecue is one 0:15:24.520 --> 0:15:26.640 of the best parts of July fourth, So all the 0:15:26.640 --> 0:15:29.480 fireworks high in the sky, it's it's a beautiful thing. 0:15:29.680 --> 0:15:33.840 Love the fourth everybody selling a break America's birthday or 0:15:33.920 --> 0:15:39.920 in another day for your country, your birthday. But I 0:15:39.960 --> 0:15:45.000 will say the next day, you know, like I said, 0:15:45.040 --> 0:15:47.480 I worked on the fifth, so I'm driving home on 0:15:47.520 --> 0:15:52.160 the fifth. It was like three, three thirty in the afternoon, 0:15:52.160 --> 0:15:55.960 four o'clock something like that. Driving home, I'm driving through 0:15:55.960 --> 0:16:00.440 my neighborhood. You know those You drive through any neighborhood 0:16:00.440 --> 0:16:03.520 in America and see this the day after the fourth 0:16:03.520 --> 0:16:07.560 of July, and honestly, especially with it falling on a Friday, 0:16:07.600 --> 0:16:10.760 you can probably see it the days leading up to 0:16:10.800 --> 0:16:13.440 the fourth, but I know I saw it quite a 0:16:13.480 --> 0:16:20.240 bit on the fifth driving home next day afternoon, and 0:16:20.280 --> 0:16:23.200 there it is that the end of some driveways is 0:16:23.280 --> 0:16:28.440 the pile of the you know, the used firework stuff, 0:16:29.640 --> 0:16:31.280 which is great. They swept it up, they put in 0:16:31.280 --> 0:16:35.360 a nice little pile. I did the same thing. And 0:16:35.400 --> 0:16:37.000 I know you want to cool it down, right. You 0:16:37.000 --> 0:16:39.760 don't want to put hot anything super hot inside your 0:16:39.760 --> 0:16:42.960 trash can could become a fire hazard. Next thing you know, 0:16:43.000 --> 0:16:44.640 your trash can's on fire. Because I'm sure some of 0:16:44.640 --> 0:16:46.360 you were like I saw this video. I saw this 0:16:46.440 --> 0:16:51.200 TikTok and it had trash cans on fire or piles 0:16:51.240 --> 0:16:53.400 of whatever on fire because it was still too hot. 0:16:54.160 --> 0:16:57.040 I'm not debating that at all. I know that's the truth. 0:16:57.280 --> 0:16:59.240 I didn't have to watch your TikTok to know that. 0:17:00.480 --> 0:17:07.399 But with that being said, the next day, okay, a 0:17:07.480 --> 0:17:14.359 full fifteen sixteen hours after you blued up the fireworks 0:17:14.600 --> 0:17:16.560 and swept into a nice little pile at the end 0:17:16.600 --> 0:17:26.040 of your driveway, you could have thrown it away. I 0:17:26.080 --> 0:17:29.640 dislike those people. I dislike the people that leave their 0:17:29.680 --> 0:17:36.200 trash because what are they waiting for? Every single homeowner 0:17:36.840 --> 0:17:39.159 in the state of Nebraska. And I'm gonna go on 0:17:39.200 --> 0:17:43.280 a limit, saying the entire Midwest owns a shovel at 0:17:43.359 --> 0:17:47.600 least one shovel and a broom and has the opportunity 0:17:47.840 --> 0:17:50.600 to sweep up that mess and put it in the 0:17:50.640 --> 0:17:54.080 trash can. I'm a guy that does it. Night of 0:17:54.359 --> 0:17:58.400 fourth of July blowing up fireworks. Okay, it's all done. 0:17:58.520 --> 0:18:01.840 You know, we do pitcher of water, slowly, pour some 0:18:01.880 --> 0:18:04.480 water on it, cool it off a little bit, cool 0:18:04.520 --> 0:18:08.600 it all off, then we sweep it up. Then we 0:18:08.600 --> 0:18:11.600 see what's up. If it's too hot still, we'll leave 0:18:11.600 --> 0:18:13.400 it sitting a little bit. But you know what we're 0:18:13.400 --> 0:18:16.840 gonna do. We're gonna clean up the mass. Like how 0:18:16.920 --> 0:18:19.440 rude is that to your neighbors? And then who knows? 0:18:19.640 --> 0:18:22.080 You may not even clean up in the wind could blow. 0:18:24.200 --> 0:18:29.679 And here's the thing here in Omaha, Omaha, Nebraska, on 0:18:29.760 --> 0:18:36.080 the night of the fourth overnight it poured rain like 0:18:36.320 --> 0:18:42.000 poured ring So all those hot tubes and what not 0:18:42.119 --> 0:18:44.560 for your fire or excite, they were not warm anymore. 0:18:45.359 --> 0:18:50.359 But how much of that chunk blew and washed away 0:18:50.560 --> 0:18:53.480 into the sewers, into the streets just making a mess 0:18:53.480 --> 0:18:56.520 of your neighborhood. I don't know. Am I old guy 0:18:57.000 --> 0:19:00.520 shaking his fist at the clouds? Now? Am I getting 0:19:00.560 --> 0:19:03.080 to that point in my life? It really bothered me 0:19:03.560 --> 0:19:06.879 driving around seeing all these piles. And the thing that 0:19:06.960 --> 0:19:09.959 sucks is the one of the neighbors that had the 0:19:10.080 --> 0:19:15.960 pile of trash still sitting outside his driveway late in 0:19:16.080 --> 0:19:20.440 the afternoon on the fifth. I really respect that guy. 0:19:20.480 --> 0:19:24.359 He's got this like old vintage Coca Cola machine, like 0:19:24.400 --> 0:19:28.920 one of those old pop bottle merchandisers. It might even 0:19:29.119 --> 0:19:31.840 distribute cans. I'm not even quite sure what package it does, 0:19:31.880 --> 0:19:34.960 but it looks awesome. And he's got one right outside 0:19:35.000 --> 0:19:41.720 his garage. He's had old pinball machines in his garage. 0:19:42.800 --> 0:19:44.639 I was drive by that and they have the garage open. 0:19:44.640 --> 0:19:46.960 I'm like, that is cool. Like that guy's got his 0:19:47.080 --> 0:19:53.120 shit together, and then sure enough he ruins it all, 0:19:53.720 --> 0:20:02.040 leaves that pile of trash. If you're old enough to 0:20:02.080 --> 0:20:04.760 blow up fireworks, you're old enough to clean up the 0:20:04.760 --> 0:20:08.560 mess and do responsibly. We don't need any trash cans 0:20:08.560 --> 0:20:17.800 on fire, but clean it up your mess. This is 0:20:17.840 --> 0:20:21.840 the season three finale of Laugh With me. I just 0:20:21.880 --> 0:20:24.320 want to say thank you to everybody who listens to 0:20:24.320 --> 0:20:27.400 the show, who downloads the show, who comments, who who 0:20:27.480 --> 0:20:30.800 has maybe told a friend about it about the show. 0:20:32.400 --> 0:20:34.360 You know, there's a lot of you, thousands and thousands 0:20:34.359 --> 0:20:38.639 of you listen every single episode, and Johnny and I 0:20:38.720 --> 0:20:43.280 just cannot say thank you enough.

We've got a lot of fun, 0:20:50.240 --> 0:20:53.280 exciting things for you coming up in season four, which 0:20:53.760 --> 0:20:58.439 starts with the next episode, so we are very excited 0:20:58.440 --> 0:21:01.160 about that. But again, thank you so much to every 0:21:01.160 --> 0:21:10.080 single one of you that listen. With that being said, 0:21:18.160 --> 0:21:22.239 one listener in particular, and this guy I don't know 0:21:22.280 --> 0:21:26.440 his I don't know his name, Okay, is his uh 0:21:26.800 --> 0:21:30.639 user name is CZB one two three. It could be 0:21:30.640 --> 0:21:35.600 made up, I don't know, could be an anonymous, it 0:21:35.600 --> 0:21:37.639 could be somebody I know, it could be who knows 0:21:39.240 --> 0:21:41.320 left us a comment, and you know what, thank you 0:21:41.400 --> 0:21:45.600 for listening, CZB one two three. I do appreciate you listening. 0:21:46.080 --> 0:21:50.159 Don't get me wrong. I'm thankful to be able to 0:21:50.160 --> 0:21:53.040 do this and that people actually listen to it. Franklin, 0:21:53.040 --> 0:21:55.560 I'm kind of surprised. I'm just I'm excited for that. 0:21:56.800 --> 0:22:00.560 But know what you're getting into when you listen to 0:22:00.560 --> 0:22:07.040 our episodes. It we're not surprising anybody with the content. 0:22:07.119 --> 0:22:12.400 We've never once, I think, put ourselves out there as 0:22:12.520 --> 0:22:19.560 too serious set of subject matters or tried to be 0:22:19.920 --> 0:22:26.760 anything that we are not. You know, for example, one 0:22:26.840 --> 0:22:29.280 of the one of the comments that we've got five 0:22:29.320 --> 0:22:31.280 star review at. One of the comments is very simple, 0:22:31.480 --> 0:22:35.080 kind of says exactly what we are here. It said, 0:22:35.359 --> 0:22:38.520 great podcast stories. Thank you. There you go. What's we do? 0:22:38.560 --> 0:22:43.160 We tell stories. Some are experiences, but some of them 0:22:44.480 --> 0:22:50.080 fabricated just for your pure entertainment. But the stories is 0:22:50.200 --> 0:22:52.359 what it's about. It's fun. It's a good listen. It's uh, 0:22:52.560 --> 0:22:54.159 you know, you're walking your dog and you get to 0:22:54.200 --> 0:22:56.879 listen to some funny stories. That's it, right, That's what 0:22:56.960 --> 0:23:03.040 we do. Here's another comment, this one dn DFU, So 0:23:03.680 --> 0:23:06.719 I don't know what that means. He's not a dungeon 0:23:06.760 --> 0:23:10.600 of draggers fan, I'm assuming, but the comment was a 0:23:10.640 --> 0:23:14.320 little funny. Hey, I'll take a little funny. That's better 0:23:14.400 --> 0:23:19.800 than not funny at all. I'll take it I'll take it. 0:23:19.880 --> 0:23:24.359 But this guy CZB one two three didn't get the 0:23:24.400 --> 0:23:28.719 memo on what exactly we do here. Here's this comment. 0:23:29.600 --> 0:23:32.560 Just listen to the episode on How I Got Crones disease. 0:23:33.720 --> 0:23:37.879 It was not informative, funny or dealing with crones. He 0:23:38.000 --> 0:23:46.160 droned on intermittably about CRT televisions. It's true. Go back 0:23:46.160 --> 0:23:47.480 and listen to the episode. If you haven't how I 0:23:47.520 --> 0:23:49.280 got Crones disease. I explained to you how I got 0:23:49.280 --> 0:23:53.960 crones disease, and that uh, in that episode, I blame 0:23:54.040 --> 0:23:58.520 my brother in his big ass old TV. I had 0:23:58.560 --> 0:24:02.480 to carry up and down apartment complex stairs over and 0:24:02.520 --> 0:24:05.919 over again as he was moving houses. This was a 0:24:05.920 --> 0:24:09.680 long time ago. I firmly believe that was the beginning 0:24:09.920 --> 0:24:14.879 of how I got crones disease. Now, I'm not scientifically 0:24:14.920 --> 0:24:18.440 proving this, and I certainly did not tell my doctors 0:24:19.040 --> 0:24:21.080 that this was how I believe I got crones disease. 0:24:21.160 --> 0:24:25.199 If that tells you anything, But why the guy have 0:24:25.280 --> 0:24:27.639 to do that like CZB one two three. Maybe give 0:24:27.680 --> 0:24:30.720 another episode to listen and uh, you'll kind of get 0:24:30.720 --> 0:24:39.640 the gist what we're doing here. A season four is 0:24:39.680 --> 0:24:43.600 coming up, and I promise you more stories about how 0:24:43.600 --> 0:24:49.720 I got croons the season. Sorry brother, Oh sorry, I 0:24:49.720 --> 0:24:54.280 add new addition to the pod as we go into 0:24:54.280 --> 0:24:57.560 season four. He just came back into my life at 0:24:57.600 --> 0:25:01.360 the Fourth of July barbecue. He's he's somebody that has 0:25:01.680 --> 0:25:03.320 was a big part of my life, somebody that I 0:25:03.359 --> 0:25:06.159 had to work hard to get back in two thousand 0:25:06.200 --> 0:25:16.240 and seven. And that's this life size cardboard standy of 0:25:16.640 --> 0:25:23.000 legendary Hall of Fame coach Mike Didga. But it's not 0:25:23.080 --> 0:25:26.120 just any Mike dick a standy's. This is a special standy. 0:25:26.320 --> 0:25:28.320 See what it is is Back in the day, I 0:25:28.320 --> 0:25:30.119 worked for this grocery store. I was just a young guy. 0:25:30.119 --> 0:25:31.880 I didn't have much of a I mean, I had 0:25:31.880 --> 0:25:34.920 a role. Letna say. It wasn't an important role since 0:25:35.000 --> 0:25:39.080 I was a nobody. Okay. I wasn't even the buyer 0:25:39.160 --> 0:25:42.399 for this grocery store. I was the assistant to the 0:25:42.400 --> 0:25:44.000 buyer the grocery store. And I got to go to 0:25:44.040 --> 0:25:46.480 this food show. Right. It's just a big arena full 0:25:46.880 --> 0:25:51.400 of vendors and different items, and you get to make 0:25:51.480 --> 0:25:54.000 buys for your store and then try to sell to 0:25:54.040 --> 0:26:03.800 the people. I purchased a palette of Mike Ditka's salsa. 0:26:04.560 --> 0:26:07.000 Look it up. It was a real thing, Mike Ditka salsa, 0:26:07.000 --> 0:26:10.359 if I remember correctly. It had two different flavor profiles, 0:26:10.359 --> 0:26:16.800 probably mild and hot. And I bought the palette of 0:26:16.960 --> 0:26:20.320 salsa because they're at the vendor table, they had this 0:26:20.480 --> 0:26:25.400 cardboard standy of coach Mike Ditka in a full poncho 0:26:25.880 --> 0:26:29.040 Hanna sombrero holding a jar of his uh salsa. And 0:26:29.080 --> 0:26:32.320 it's just funny because he's got this sweet watch you 0:26:32.320 --> 0:26:37.560 can see coming out under from under the poncho. It's 0:26:37.720 --> 0:26:42.200 just so novel that I had to have it. And 0:26:42.280 --> 0:26:45.240 so I asked my manager and I'm like, I have 0:26:45.320 --> 0:26:46.760 to have that standy. He's like, well, you have to 0:26:46.760 --> 0:26:50.480
