1 00:00:01,320 --> 00:00:04,280 Speaker 1: Welcome to Stuff you missed in History Class, A production 2 00:00:04,400 --> 00:00:14,680 Speaker 1: of iHeartRadio, Hello and Happy Friday. I'm Holly Frye and 3 00:00:14,760 --> 00:00:15,480 Speaker 1: I'm Tracy V. 4 00:00:15,600 --> 00:00:16,040 Speaker 2: Wilson. 5 00:00:16,640 --> 00:00:20,520 Speaker 1: We talked all about I won't even say all about. 6 00:00:20,560 --> 00:00:24,120 Speaker 1: We talked about actuarial science and assurance and insurance all 7 00:00:24,120 --> 00:00:27,720 Speaker 1: week long. Yeah, we didn't touch at all on a 8 00:00:27,800 --> 00:00:31,400 Speaker 1: type of insurance, the type of insurance that I actually 9 00:00:31,440 --> 00:00:36,640 Speaker 1: have the most experienced filing claims and dealing with terrifying 10 00:00:38,159 --> 00:00:43,600 Speaker 1: possible claim denial in health insurance. No, homeowner's insurance. Oh yeah, 11 00:00:43,640 --> 00:00:46,120 Speaker 1: because most of my health insurance there have been times 12 00:00:46,120 --> 00:00:47,400 Speaker 1: that I was like, I thought, this is going to 13 00:00:47,440 --> 00:00:49,519 Speaker 1: be covered more, but like most of that has just 14 00:00:49,600 --> 00:00:52,600 Speaker 1: been filed on my behalf at the doctor, not something 15 00:00:52,640 --> 00:00:56,480 Speaker 1: that I've had to personally do. Yeah, but I had 16 00:00:56,520 --> 00:01:01,360 Speaker 1: a very scary homeowners insurance claim thing years ago that 17 00:01:01,520 --> 00:01:05,280 Speaker 1: I had to totally deal with myself. And we didn't 18 00:01:05,280 --> 00:01:13,440 Speaker 1: talk about homeowner's insurance no at all. No, that's no, No, 19 00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:18,200 Speaker 1: that's a whole other thing. Yeah, homeowner's insurance, health insurance. 20 00:01:18,200 --> 00:01:21,040 Speaker 1: I mean, you can ensure almost anything at this point, right, 21 00:01:21,360 --> 00:01:24,600 Speaker 1: but it's we would still be talking. We would be 22 00:01:24,640 --> 00:01:28,880 Speaker 1: recorded for seventeen hours. That's a cool podcast for someone 23 00:01:28,920 --> 00:01:31,040 Speaker 1: else to launch. Yeah, at all it do is to 24 00:01:31,120 --> 00:01:32,880 Speaker 1: I'm sure there's one out there that talks about nothing 25 00:01:32,880 --> 00:01:35,520 Speaker 1: but insurance. Something that has come up on the show 26 00:01:35,520 --> 00:01:39,520 Speaker 1: before that we didn't talk about this week was I 27 00:01:39,520 --> 00:01:41,120 Speaker 1: guess we alluded to it. We talked a little bit 28 00:01:41,120 --> 00:01:45,760 Speaker 1: about COVID, but like medical knowledge that has come about 29 00:01:45,800 --> 00:01:51,160 Speaker 1: from actuarial science, Yeah, came up when we talked about 30 00:01:51,720 --> 00:01:57,840 Speaker 1: hypertension and making connections between blood pressure and life expectancy. 31 00:01:57,920 --> 00:02:01,320 Speaker 1: A lot of that came from tables. 32 00:02:01,720 --> 00:02:02,160 Speaker 2: Yeah. 33 00:02:02,240 --> 00:02:04,960 Speaker 1: I mean it got me thinking when you mentioned it 34 00:02:05,080 --> 00:02:10,960 Speaker 1: earlier before we were recording, about whether or not the 35 00:02:11,080 --> 00:02:15,560 Speaker 1: rise of the smart watch has similarly impacted actuarial science, 36 00:02:15,600 --> 00:02:18,200 Speaker 1: because you know, there are those occasional news stories where 37 00:02:18,200 --> 00:02:22,600 Speaker 1: you'll be like someone smartwatch recognized that they had a 38 00:02:22,639 --> 00:02:25,560 Speaker 1: heart problem before their doctor diagnosed them, And I'm like, 39 00:02:25,919 --> 00:02:30,800 Speaker 1: are they then adding another finesse layer of information to 40 00:02:30,919 --> 00:02:35,880 Speaker 1: the whole morass of numbers? But also that gets into 41 00:02:35,880 --> 00:02:38,160 Speaker 1: a secondary thing of like how do you know they're 42 00:02:38,200 --> 00:02:42,200 Speaker 1: all the same accuracy? I was thinking that gets into 43 00:02:42,200 --> 00:02:47,239 Speaker 1: a think of like privacy and data security, right, right, 44 00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:54,480 Speaker 1: I feel like so anytime I'm thinking about actuarial science, 45 00:02:55,360 --> 00:03:00,200 Speaker 1: I'm thinking about The Player, which most people will know 46 00:03:00,320 --> 00:03:03,760 Speaker 1: from the movie directed by Robert Altman starring Tim Robbins, 47 00:03:03,760 --> 00:03:07,320 Speaker 1: which is spectacular in my opinion. However, what I'm thinking 48 00:03:07,360 --> 00:03:10,480 Speaker 1: about is the book The Player, which was written by 49 00:03:10,480 --> 00:03:14,720 Speaker 1: Michael Tolkien, because there's this Have you ever read that book? 50 00:03:15,360 --> 00:03:15,800 Speaker 2: I love it. 51 00:03:16,680 --> 00:03:19,760 Speaker 1: There is a section in the book where the character 52 00:03:19,880 --> 00:03:22,919 Speaker 1: that is played by Tim Robbins in the movie has 53 00:03:23,080 --> 00:03:28,640 Speaker 1: had this interaction with his secretary and it's like a 54 00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:33,320 Speaker 1: thing where he's they're just having a call transferred through 55 00:03:33,320 --> 00:03:36,240 Speaker 1: to him on his phone, and he has this sort 56 00:03:36,280 --> 00:03:41,240 Speaker 1: of hilarious moment where he's looking at his phone and 57 00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:44,240 Speaker 1: the many buttons that offer different lines on his phone, 58 00:03:44,280 --> 00:03:48,200 Speaker 1: and he's thinking about all of the different kinds of 59 00:03:48,400 --> 00:03:52,960 Speaker 1: scientific and engineering developments that had to get to a 60 00:03:52,960 --> 00:03:55,000 Speaker 1: point where someone on the other side of the world 61 00:03:55,040 --> 00:03:58,680 Speaker 1: can call you and you can be connected to them, 62 00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:01,119 Speaker 1: and there can be subconnections that are done even within 63 00:04:01,160 --> 00:04:03,520 Speaker 1: your office, and someone transfers that call blah blah blah 64 00:04:03,520 --> 00:04:05,440 Speaker 1: blah blah, And he kind of says, I'm gonna misquote 65 00:04:05,440 --> 00:04:07,200 Speaker 1: it because I didn't look up the exact quote, but 66 00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:09,400 Speaker 1: he says, I don't know, I don't know a way 67 00:04:09,440 --> 00:04:12,400 Speaker 1: to describe all of this without it just coming out 68 00:04:12,400 --> 00:04:16,360 Speaker 1: as wow phones, Like that is exactly how I feel 69 00:04:16,360 --> 00:04:20,320 Speaker 1: about actuarial side. Yeah, So this was in a way 70 00:04:20,880 --> 00:04:23,920 Speaker 1: me trying to sort through that because I obviously, I 71 00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:28,680 Speaker 1: will say I don't think I could keep all of 72 00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:34,000 Speaker 1: the the factors that go into a simple actuarial computation, 73 00:04:34,480 --> 00:04:36,440 Speaker 1: certainly in my head, but even on paper, I would 74 00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:39,800 Speaker 1: have trouble. I think, like, yeah, parsing all of it 75 00:04:39,880 --> 00:04:42,160 Speaker 1: in a way that I was not like wow phones. 76 00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:46,240 Speaker 1: So my hat's off to you if you're an actuary 77 00:04:47,480 --> 00:04:50,280 Speaker 1: or if you work in this field in any way. Yeah, 78 00:04:50,360 --> 00:04:52,880 Speaker 1: it's one of those things where it's like, it's not 79 00:04:53,080 --> 00:04:57,560 Speaker 1: great in my opinion that so much of this is 80 00:04:58,200 --> 00:05:02,520 Speaker 1: just like it's rooted in capitalism and companies wanting to 81 00:05:02,560 --> 00:05:05,640 Speaker 1: make a profit, right, But at the same time, like 82 00:05:06,640 --> 00:05:09,200 Speaker 1: people need a way to be able to pay for 83 00:05:09,279 --> 00:05:14,120 Speaker 1: their burials, right, and might because that's really expensive, and 84 00:05:14,680 --> 00:05:17,240 Speaker 1: you know, people might be able to pay an insurance 85 00:05:17,279 --> 00:05:21,599 Speaker 1: premium but not be able to like save up the 86 00:05:21,640 --> 00:05:24,760 Speaker 1: amount of money that it requires. In the United States, 87 00:05:26,440 --> 00:05:31,400 Speaker 1: the same thing with you know, making sure people's family 88 00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:34,760 Speaker 1: members are not left destitute when someone dies. 89 00:05:34,800 --> 00:05:35,359 Speaker 2: Like all of this. 90 00:05:38,360 --> 00:05:41,440 Speaker 1: That's I sort of like to envision a society where 91 00:05:42,920 --> 00:05:45,240 Speaker 1: none of these are things that people that are that 92 00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:48,400 Speaker 1: companies are making money off of doing, but the like 93 00:05:48,440 --> 00:05:51,520 Speaker 1: that would be an entire revisioning of of how our 94 00:05:51,680 --> 00:05:52,920 Speaker 1: entire society works. 95 00:05:53,200 --> 00:05:53,960 Speaker 2: Yeah. 96 00:05:54,360 --> 00:06:00,120 Speaker 1: This also, I kept thinking about the very very brief 97 00:06:00,240 --> 00:06:06,479 Speaker 1: and very early appearance of insurance in Terry Pratchett's Discworld books. 98 00:06:07,200 --> 00:06:10,920 Speaker 1: I'm trying to remember, right, so unless I am misremembering, 99 00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:13,120 Speaker 1: because there are books that are sort of about, like, 100 00:06:13,560 --> 00:06:20,400 Speaker 1: you know, when when the Clacks system, which was sort 101 00:06:20,440 --> 00:06:23,680 Speaker 1: of the early version of a telephone and telegraph system 102 00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:27,080 Speaker 1: is like invented inkhmorphor it's like there's whole books that 103 00:06:27,160 --> 00:06:29,760 Speaker 1: sort of explore, you know that, the post office, things 104 00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:31,440 Speaker 1: like that, And I don't think there's a book that's 105 00:06:31,440 --> 00:06:34,760 Speaker 1: specifically like insurance. But at the very very very beginning 106 00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:41,040 Speaker 1: of that series, two Flower a tourist and also, if 107 00:06:41,080 --> 00:06:44,800 Speaker 1: I'm remembering correctly, an insurance agent, and this is like 108 00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:48,760 Speaker 1: a sort of a side part of one of the 109 00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:51,440 Speaker 1: earliest books of that series. But I kept thinking about 110 00:06:51,480 --> 00:06:56,159 Speaker 1: it because they say it in sewer ants. In sewer 111 00:06:56,680 --> 00:06:59,960 Speaker 1: ants is how they say it, and it's I don't know. 112 00:07:00,240 --> 00:07:02,039 Speaker 1: I just kept thinking about it. Every time the word 113 00:07:02,080 --> 00:07:05,040 Speaker 1: insurance came up. In this episode, we could re record 114 00:07:05,040 --> 00:07:08,000 Speaker 1: the whole thing and say ensuwer and every time, just 115 00:07:08,560 --> 00:07:12,400 Speaker 1: see how many people lose their minds. They're really frustrated 116 00:07:12,440 --> 00:07:24,040 Speaker 1: with us. One of the kinds of insurance that we 117 00:07:24,080 --> 00:07:29,120 Speaker 1: did not talk about, which fascinates me utterly, uh huh, 118 00:07:29,160 --> 00:07:32,920 Speaker 1: was popular in I think the eighteenth and early nineteenth century, 119 00:07:33,040 --> 00:07:37,280 Speaker 1: which was called leases for lives. And basically at that 120 00:07:37,360 --> 00:07:39,640 Speaker 1: point I was singing, like why would this even be 121 00:07:39,680 --> 00:07:41,880 Speaker 1: a thing, And then I realized, like, because your home 122 00:07:42,080 --> 00:07:45,720 Speaker 1: was the most important thing at that point in terms 123 00:07:45,720 --> 00:07:49,520 Speaker 1: of your financial stability. And basically, like a person could 124 00:07:49,520 --> 00:07:54,280 Speaker 1: pay a lump sum to lease a piece of land, 125 00:07:54,320 --> 00:07:56,320 Speaker 1: but in a home, and it would mean that they 126 00:07:56,320 --> 00:07:59,040 Speaker 1: could keep that the rest of their life, and in 127 00:07:59,120 --> 00:08:02,000 Speaker 1: a lot of those it also meant that like the 128 00:08:02,040 --> 00:08:05,120 Speaker 1: next two generations of their family could So they were 129 00:08:05,160 --> 00:08:09,000 Speaker 1: like it was a form of insurance so that their 130 00:08:09,040 --> 00:08:11,760 Speaker 1: family would always have a place to live. And I'm like, 131 00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:16,760 Speaker 1: this is fascinating so when was this again, I think 132 00:08:16,800 --> 00:08:21,600 Speaker 1: this was mostly in the I don't have this noted 133 00:08:21,640 --> 00:08:28,680 Speaker 1: anywhere handy like late seventeenth through eighteenth and early nineteenth century. 134 00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:30,920 Speaker 1: Maybe it reminds me a little bit of something that 135 00:08:30,960 --> 00:08:34,320 Speaker 1: we talked about in the Rebecca Riots episode about how 136 00:08:34,800 --> 00:08:39,120 Speaker 1: people living in rural Wales were mostly tenant farmers and 137 00:08:40,320 --> 00:08:44,920 Speaker 1: for centuries like their least had generally been a whole lifetime, right, 138 00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:50,160 Speaker 1: And so that's I wonder if that's connected to Probably, yeah. 139 00:08:50,360 --> 00:08:51,680 Speaker 2: It's a wild thing to consider. 140 00:08:53,040 --> 00:08:56,080 Speaker 1: I told you we would mention a thing about the 141 00:08:56,160 --> 00:08:58,079 Speaker 1: eccentric Edwin Roemores. 142 00:08:58,200 --> 00:08:58,559 Speaker 2: All right. 143 00:08:58,679 --> 00:09:01,880 Speaker 1: Yes, we talked about how there is a theory that 144 00:09:01,920 --> 00:09:04,640 Speaker 1: he just plucked actuary as like a that's an interesting 145 00:09:04,679 --> 00:09:05,360 Speaker 1: word from history. 146 00:09:05,400 --> 00:09:05,920 Speaker 2: I'll use that. 147 00:09:07,160 --> 00:09:10,160 Speaker 1: Here's another story that I read about him that kind 148 00:09:10,160 --> 00:09:14,679 Speaker 1: of illustrates what a marvelously odd duck he may have been, 149 00:09:14,720 --> 00:09:16,240 Speaker 1: even though a lot of people said he was really 150 00:09:16,280 --> 00:09:19,720 Speaker 1: obstinate and kind of a pain in the neck. He 151 00:09:19,800 --> 00:09:23,360 Speaker 1: had a daughter who, for a lot of her early 152 00:09:23,440 --> 00:09:29,760 Speaker 1: life he would only speak to in Latin. Oh, okay, 153 00:09:31,080 --> 00:09:33,199 Speaker 1: that's kind of all I know about it. I don't 154 00:09:33,200 --> 00:09:37,920 Speaker 1: know if she continued to use Latin throughout her life. 155 00:09:38,040 --> 00:09:41,600 Speaker 1: I don't know if she was like, Dad, will you 156 00:09:41,640 --> 00:09:46,640 Speaker 1: please just speak English to me? I don't That's it's 157 00:09:46,679 --> 00:09:49,880 Speaker 1: an odd experiment to do, and it does show how 158 00:09:49,920 --> 00:09:52,920 Speaker 1: eccentric he really was. Well, and I like, I know 159 00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:55,840 Speaker 1: of some people who have wanted to raise their children 160 00:09:55,920 --> 00:09:57,520 Speaker 1: to be bilingual. 161 00:09:57,920 --> 00:10:00,560 Speaker 2: Yes or more, Oh for sure, which is great. 162 00:10:00,679 --> 00:10:03,360 Speaker 1: Parent was fluent in a language, and like that parent 163 00:10:03,480 --> 00:10:10,800 Speaker 1: has spoken that language with the kids exclusively or nearly exclusively. Uh. 164 00:10:11,040 --> 00:10:16,080 Speaker 1: But you know, Latin is not something most people are 165 00:10:16,120 --> 00:10:22,959 Speaker 1: just conversing language daily. So even if she knew Latin, 166 00:10:23,280 --> 00:10:25,560 Speaker 1: learned Latin to the point where she could speak it, 167 00:10:26,880 --> 00:10:29,199 Speaker 1: she could probably only speak to him and a couple 168 00:10:29,240 --> 00:10:34,840 Speaker 1: other people at that point. It's an odd limitter again, fascinating. 169 00:10:34,920 --> 00:10:37,240 Speaker 1: I mean, I know people that wasn't it. I think 170 00:10:37,280 --> 00:10:39,600 Speaker 1: seand Ryan said in an interview that she only let 171 00:10:39,640 --> 00:10:42,800 Speaker 1: her kids watch Netflix with the the French dubs on. 172 00:10:43,559 --> 00:10:44,000 Speaker 2: Wow. 173 00:10:44,480 --> 00:10:47,679 Speaker 1: But I could be misremembering, So don't anybody get mad 174 00:10:47,720 --> 00:10:49,880 Speaker 1: at me if that's wrong. But I swear I saw 175 00:10:49,880 --> 00:10:53,320 Speaker 1: that somewhere, and I have known other parents who have 176 00:10:53,360 --> 00:10:55,600 Speaker 1: done similar things where they're like this, but it's usually 177 00:10:55,679 --> 00:10:58,920 Speaker 1: much more granular, like this one cartoon we only watch 178 00:10:58,960 --> 00:11:02,000 Speaker 1: in Spanish or whatever because they know their kid loves 179 00:11:02,000 --> 00:11:04,400 Speaker 1: that cartoon and like they'll rewatch it over and over 180 00:11:04,440 --> 00:11:07,880 Speaker 1: and it'll be a good learning thing. But listen, I 181 00:11:08,000 --> 00:11:12,000 Speaker 1: wish I mean, I was fairly multi lingual when I 182 00:11:12,040 --> 00:11:12,480 Speaker 1: was tiny. 183 00:11:13,240 --> 00:11:16,040 Speaker 2: I lost most of it. I wish I had maintained it. Yeah, 184 00:11:16,200 --> 00:11:19,000 Speaker 2: we've talked about that. Yeah. 185 00:11:19,559 --> 00:11:22,280 Speaker 1: Now I'm still like on Duolingo going I don't remember 186 00:11:22,360 --> 00:11:29,520 Speaker 1: if that's a masculine or feminine noun. Here's another interesting thing. Okay, 187 00:11:29,559 --> 00:11:33,560 Speaker 1: this is a personally interesting thing, but also just delighted 188 00:11:33,600 --> 00:11:34,880 Speaker 1: me because there's a name. 189 00:11:34,720 --> 00:11:36,679 Speaker 2: Of a place that is delightful. 190 00:11:36,840 --> 00:11:41,760 Speaker 1: So okay, when I was in London in April for 191 00:11:41,920 --> 00:11:44,400 Speaker 1: Star Wars celebration and we went a little early so 192 00:11:44,440 --> 00:11:47,880 Speaker 1: we could kick around and celebrate my husband's birthday, one 193 00:11:47,920 --> 00:11:50,520 Speaker 1: of our friends who lives just outside the city had 194 00:11:50,559 --> 00:11:55,440 Speaker 1: recommended this particular pub to us, and the name delighted me. 195 00:11:55,640 --> 00:11:59,520 Speaker 1: And then when I was doing this research, I found 196 00:11:59,559 --> 00:12:03,319 Speaker 1: out at the Amicable Society for a Perpetual Assurance office, 197 00:12:04,200 --> 00:12:06,400 Speaker 1: if you wanted to become a member, you had to 198 00:12:06,440 --> 00:12:09,040 Speaker 1: go to this same place to inquire and the name 199 00:12:09,080 --> 00:12:12,960 Speaker 1: of that pub is the Cheshire Cheese Okay, and it 200 00:12:13,200 --> 00:12:16,680 Speaker 1: still exists, although my understanding is that the pub has 201 00:12:16,720 --> 00:12:19,920 Speaker 1: moved a couple times. But love, I wish I had 202 00:12:19,960 --> 00:12:22,600 Speaker 1: known it's there in Fleet Street, and I wish I 203 00:12:22,640 --> 00:12:25,760 Speaker 1: had known when I was in London that I was 204 00:12:25,880 --> 00:12:27,960 Speaker 1: at the place where you could join one of the 205 00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:30,319 Speaker 1: earliest assurance society. 206 00:12:30,840 --> 00:12:32,559 Speaker 2: That's a great name for a pub. 207 00:12:34,200 --> 00:12:35,920 Speaker 1: It is a great name for a pub. I feel 208 00:12:36,000 --> 00:12:40,760 Speaker 1: like I need to go back to London anyway, because 209 00:12:41,480 --> 00:12:43,880 Speaker 1: that was the first time I had been in many decades, 210 00:12:45,040 --> 00:12:46,559 Speaker 1: certainly the first time I had been as what I 211 00:12:46,559 --> 00:12:50,360 Speaker 1: would categorize as a more or less functional adult, and 212 00:12:51,280 --> 00:12:53,280 Speaker 1: I just felt like I didn't have enough time. And 213 00:12:53,320 --> 00:12:56,280 Speaker 1: we did stuff, but I feel like we couldn't ever 214 00:12:56,360 --> 00:12:58,839 Speaker 1: have done enough stuff. And then when I was when 215 00:12:58,880 --> 00:13:02,760 Speaker 1: it was time to like prep for the convention I 216 00:13:02,800 --> 00:13:06,080 Speaker 1: was there for, I had some kind of worky engagements 217 00:13:06,080 --> 00:13:07,800 Speaker 1: that I had to be preparing for, so I couldn't 218 00:13:07,800 --> 00:13:09,440 Speaker 1: be running around as much. And now I'm like, I 219 00:13:09,480 --> 00:13:12,520 Speaker 1: should have added another week to that trip so I 220 00:13:12,559 --> 00:13:16,400 Speaker 1: could just go visit all of the fabulous historical pubs. 221 00:13:17,120 --> 00:13:19,800 Speaker 1: A historical pub crawl sounds great to me, and the 222 00:13:19,920 --> 00:13:23,440 Speaker 1: good thing about London is that they're everywhere still. You 223 00:13:23,480 --> 00:13:28,120 Speaker 1: could you could take up days doing nothing, but that 224 00:13:29,200 --> 00:13:34,160 Speaker 1: they might get tired of your American obnoxious pub crawl. 225 00:13:34,200 --> 00:13:40,319 Speaker 1: But we hope not. We try to be respectful. Yeah 226 00:13:40,400 --> 00:13:46,720 Speaker 1: wow phones Yeah, yeah. So I hope other people find 227 00:13:46,760 --> 00:13:50,120 Speaker 1: this stuff as fascinating as I do, because it is 228 00:13:50,480 --> 00:13:53,120 Speaker 1: to me super interesting to consider. Where are the things 229 00:13:53,160 --> 00:13:55,160 Speaker 1: we just take for granted and as part of our 230 00:13:55,200 --> 00:13:59,200 Speaker 1: everyday necessities, Like oh, I got to deal with insurance? Well, yes, 231 00:13:59,240 --> 00:14:02,160 Speaker 1: but someone had to come up with it. Yeah, that's 232 00:14:03,200 --> 00:14:08,680 Speaker 1: fascinating to me, hopefully to others as well. I hope 233 00:14:08,720 --> 00:14:12,040 Speaker 1: you don't have to deal with yucky insurance stuff this weekend, 234 00:14:12,480 --> 00:14:14,960 Speaker 1: and that you have the time off.
