Yes, 0:04:27.279 --> 0:04:30.279 I was clearly wrong about the whole Motown sound thing. 0:04:30.839 --> 0:04:32.680 You had nothing to do with the Motown town. But 0:04:33.200 --> 0:04:35.960 do you like motown music? I do. You don't know 0:04:36.000 --> 0:04:37.800 if I could name any off the top of my head, 0:04:37.880 --> 0:04:42.560 but um well, let's see scrill X is definitely the 0:04:42.560 --> 0:04:47.720 biggest Motown beach boys. Were they not from Detroit? No? No, Well, 0:04:47.760 --> 0:04:51.839 I guess we don't know anything about Eminem because of 0:04:51.920 --> 0:04:55.200 the m Motown man. That's what the short from Motown. 0:04:56.440 --> 0:05:00.440 He is from Michigan. That's where the eight mile talk 0:05:00.520 --> 0:05:05.080 about eight mile? Right right? Have you seen it? I 0:05:05.120 --> 0:05:07.600 would love to get it a deep dive on eight mile. 0:05:08.880 --> 0:05:12.520 I think I'm the wrong guy. So let's start with 0:05:12.560 --> 0:05:15.279 the basics. How did you get started? How did music 0:05:15.400 --> 0:05:18.400 into your life? I mean from a young age. You know, 0:05:18.440 --> 0:05:21.240 you have the radio just going so my parents, my 0:05:21.320 --> 0:05:26.040 dad always listened to him. Actually, were you like listening 0:05:26.080 --> 0:05:28.640 to like raffie music? No? No No, I was listening to 0:05:28.720 --> 0:05:31.240 a lot of like one on one point one, Okay, 0:05:32.400 --> 0:05:33.560 here is one on one. It was. It was all 0:05:33.600 --> 0:05:35.720 the classics, and then my mom would would do one 0:05:35.800 --> 0:05:37.120 or two points and it would be really funny if 0:05:37.160 --> 0:05:40.520 my dad listened to that too, he did not, Um, 0:05:40.640 --> 0:05:42.600 I just I kind of got into music through that, 0:05:42.720 --> 0:05:47.520 and then, uh, like for actually working in music, I 0:05:47.560 --> 0:05:51.240 think it was it was just through my friend playing 0:05:51.279 --> 0:05:53.000 a lot of like dance music in his car and 0:05:53.040 --> 0:05:54.920 I didn't know what it was, and I was really 0:05:54.960 --> 0:05:57.880 into metal music and punk music at the time, and 0:05:57.880 --> 0:05:59.679 then that's what I was like, what is this? Sounds 0:05:59.720 --> 0:06:05.000 like the advanced version of that metal music is music? 0:06:05.600 --> 0:06:10.880 I'm lost here. That sounds like two pieces of metal 0:06:10.960 --> 0:06:14.960 scraping together. I guess you could say, so it's loud music. Okay, 0:06:17.200 --> 0:06:18.960 it's it's a lot of a lot of so like 0:06:19.000 --> 0:06:23.480 when someone's belting out the national anthem that's considered metal music. 0:06:24.000 --> 0:06:30.679 That's loud. Yes, it's more like it screaming, like you could, 0:06:30.720 --> 0:06:35.760 like Katy Perry so close. But okay, well, none of 0:06:35.800 --> 0:06:40.840 us are good at classifying music. UM so what are 0:06:40.839 --> 0:06:45.719 we doing here? Honestly, Carolina, I mean you're supposed to 0:06:45.720 --> 0:06:48.480 be driving the train here. I'm learning just as much 0:06:48.520 --> 0:06:51.880 as you are. I mean maybe I'm less behind, but 0:06:51.960 --> 0:06:55.200 let's talk about this. So working as an E D 0:06:55.400 --> 0:06:59.880 M DJ, now that's the correct terminology, right, and produce 0:07:00.080 --> 0:07:02.799 or I mean you you take a lot from different 0:07:03.440 --> 0:07:07.440 musical influences, right, so, and I know now this, I 0:07:07.480 --> 0:07:12.280 do know reggaeton yeah is a big is big for you, 0:07:12.360 --> 0:07:14.280 right but but I read when you were younger you 0:07:14.320 --> 0:07:18.440 were very into punk music. Yes, so I just said, yes, 0:07:18.560 --> 0:07:22.280 you just said that. Yes, Okay, Shoot, somehow if lessened 0:07:22.320 --> 0:07:25.720 this biz a long time without listening, um some of 0:07:25.760 --> 0:07:29.640 the artists that inspired you, uh Pure Prairie League, Atlanta 0:07:29.720 --> 0:07:34.080 Rhythm Section, Uh, Captain and to Neil, but not to Neil. 0:07:35.200 --> 0:07:39.720 This is my bio. I'm just asking. I don't think 0:07:40.360 --> 0:07:44.760 Captain ever. I don't think none, none of those groups, 0:07:44.840 --> 0:07:49.280 neither of those two. Okay, scratch that off. Let me 0:07:49.320 --> 0:07:54.320 get my pin scratch off. Done. So I imagine you 0:07:54.320 --> 0:07:57.320 know a lot of being a producer and making electronic 0:07:57.400 --> 0:08:00.560 music involves sitting in front of a computer. Yeah, a lot. 0:08:01.320 --> 0:08:03.840 Do you feel you made a good decision there? Not? 0:08:03.960 --> 0:08:07.680 Sometimes now got a bad back from it? Definitely? Okay? Right? Yeah? 0:08:07.840 --> 0:08:09.920 Do you do you have one of those walking computer? 0:08:10.480 --> 0:08:13.520 You know where you stand? You're supposed to like standing DUTs, 0:08:13.520 --> 0:08:16.040 thank you, because sitting is supposed to kill us? Now 0:08:16.200 --> 0:08:19.440 it is? Who said that? No? That's just the new studies. 0:08:19.600 --> 0:08:21.840 Not supposed to sit, it's going to kill you. You're 0:08:21.840 --> 0:08:26.600 not ever supposed to sit, never again. So the computer, 0:08:26.600 --> 0:08:28.520 I mean the computer, it's it's I mean, it is 0:08:28.560 --> 0:08:30.360 in someone. It's a very smart choice. It's easy to 0:08:30.400 --> 0:08:33.079 carry around. He's very Do you ever do you ever 0:08:33.080 --> 0:08:35.200 look at a guy, for instance, who plays like the 0:08:35.240 --> 0:08:37.640 tuba and has to lug it all over the place 0:08:37.679 --> 0:08:41.199 and think, nice job, idiot, I'm an international superstar DJ. 0:08:41.720 --> 0:08:44.240 Just because I brought, you know, a laptop and you're 0:08:44.280 --> 0:08:48.400 lugging around a tuba.

When I heard Dylan Francis was coming in, 0:12:13.360 --> 0:12:16.120 I thought, who better to tackle the subject of caring 0:12:16.160 --> 0:12:19.760 for the elderly than Dylan Francis and E D M. Superstar. 0:12:19.880 --> 0:12:22.600 It just felt right. And you know, I always like 0:12:22.640 --> 0:12:25.160 to go with my gut. When when is my gut 0:12:25.200 --> 0:12:29.680 ever been wrong?

A lot of 0:12:35.600 --> 0:12:38.600 older people are confined to wheelchairs. We need to make 0:12:38.600 --> 0:12:43.520 our world more wheelchair accessible in general, don't you think? Yeah, 0:12:43.800 --> 0:12:48.559 I've who would say no to that? Always? I'm asking 0:12:49.120 --> 0:12:53.840 the DJ here, so you agree.

We should have should have it? Yes? Great? 0:13:07.080 --> 0:13:09.640 And also if you're if you're in a wheelchair, have 0:13:09.760 --> 0:13:12.600 fun with it, Yes, have fun with it, especially like 0:13:12.640 --> 0:13:17.240 the motorized ones.

That's another like the rascal Rascal. I um, 0:13:25.880 --> 0:13:30.920 I'm a bit of a rascal. Yes, And I volunteer 0:13:31.240 --> 0:13:33.160 at a nursing home once in a while. And I 0:13:33.160 --> 0:13:34.839 don't like to make a big deal out of it, 0:13:35.160 --> 0:13:38.680 But it really lightens up people's faces when they see 0:13:39.000 --> 0:13:42.240 old Ron Burgundy come into a visit. Do you find 0:13:42.320 --> 0:13:44.959 that with your fans they're happy to see you at 0:13:45.040 --> 0:13:47.520 meet and greets? Yeah? Do you do a lot of 0:13:47.520 --> 0:13:51.360 meet and greets sometimes? Is it? How many people would 0:13:51.360 --> 0:13:56.480 that be? Uh? Like, you know, like in one meet 0:13:56.480 --> 0:13:59.200 and greet for like the show, So after the show 0:13:59.240 --> 0:14:01.000 you'll meet with five hundred people. I mean I I 0:14:01.040 --> 0:14:04.160 used to like, go out to the home. How do 0:14:04.200 --> 0:14:05.559 you how do you have the energy to talk to 0:14:05.600 --> 0:14:11.240 five d people? Let's give him hugs? Wow? I would 0:14:11.280 --> 0:14:13.959 limit it to five five Ron would limit it to 0:14:14.000 --> 0:14:17.480 five and say only ladies please, which was kind of insulting. 0:14:17.679 --> 0:14:21.920 But um, so, you know, I just find that going 0:14:21.960 --> 0:14:24.280 to nursing homes is just a small way to give 0:14:24.320 --> 0:14:27.280 back to the community, and in particularly with the elderly 0:14:27.320 --> 0:14:30.840 folks I deal with um And I have this one 0:14:30.880 --> 0:14:38.320 gentleman I see regularly. He's a retired lieutenant colonel. He's 0:14:38.360 --> 0:14:42.120 a veteran, purple heart, the whole deal, a true American hero. 0:14:42.400 --> 0:14:44.840 And last weekend I rigged up his motorized wheelchair with 0:14:44.920 --> 0:14:48.880 the engine from an old nineteen seventy Corvette Stingray LT 0:14:49.080 --> 0:14:52.040 one and I must have got that sucker going up 0:14:52.040 --> 0:14:56.520 to around one mile maybe maybe hundred and thirty. Isn't 0:14:56.520 --> 0:15:00.520 that awesome? He was. He went on the away, he 0:15:00.560 --> 0:15:02.800 went on the freeway. He loved it, and he said 0:15:02.840 --> 0:15:05.600 thanks for bringing me back to the glory days. He 0:15:05.640 --> 0:15:09.240 didn't I feel like he loved it. I was against 0:15:09.240 --> 0:15:12.440 the idea, but then when I saw him on it, right, Okay, yeah, 0:15:12.560 --> 0:15:14.560 I mean I would just assume that that would cause 0:15:15.200 --> 0:15:17.320 I mean, he was just irreparable. Damna. He came back 0:15:17.680 --> 0:15:23.760 hard or kidney failure, yeah, um, he had a he 0:15:23.840 --> 0:15:27.280 had a little bit of kidney failure. Okay, he said 0:15:27.280 --> 0:15:28.760 it was worth the whole thing. I mean, he was 0:15:28.800 --> 0:15:31.400 just risen around the grounds of the nursing home as 0:15:31.440 --> 0:15:33.840 the time of his life. People, the people in charge 0:15:33.840 --> 0:15:36.440 of the facility got a little uptight with me, but 0:15:36.560 --> 0:15:41.000 I just said, hey, I'm Ron Burgundy. Yeah that was it. Yeah, 0:15:41.280 --> 0:15:44.960 that was my only reson. Did they say please stop? 0:15:45.000 --> 0:15:46.720 They said please stop, and we're gonna have to call 0:15:46.800 --> 0:15:50.520 the police, and law enforcement did show up. So Dylan Frances, 0:15:50.600 --> 0:15:55.600 what ways do you try to give back to the community. Um, 0:15:55.640 --> 0:16:00.240 I mean I donate money to parks and l a 0:16:00.320 --> 0:16:03.560 trying to get more parks and then just parks of 0:16:03.640 --> 0:16:07.880 general dog parks, just parks, just just making sure we 0:16:07.960 --> 0:16:10.080 have actually, like you know, because I've been we need 0:16:10.160 --> 0:16:12.360 open spaces. Yeah, I've been in the UK. They have 0:16:12.400 --> 0:16:16.160 really nice parks we just don't have. And then I 0:16:16.240 --> 0:16:19.600 give a lot to Music Cares, which is a music 0:16:19.880 --> 0:16:24.360 organization that for the arts and it actually exists. Yes, 0:16:24.480 --> 0:16:28.240 it's not a it's not a fake charity. Run has 0:16:28.280 --> 0:16:31.680 been interested in creating a charity just you should. I 0:16:31.680 --> 0:16:34.280 would donate to it. Well it's called more Spaghetti, Okay, 0:16:34.320 --> 0:16:38.040 I wouldn't take it that it's just about more spaghetti 0:16:38.680 --> 0:16:41.240 for people. We don't have to get into it. I 0:16:41.280 --> 0:16:45.600 actually I actually kind of feed the elderly more spaghetti. Yeah, 0:16:45.640 --> 0:16:47.800 I mean if they don't know, if they necessarily need 0:16:47.840 --> 0:16:49.480 more spaghetti. I feel like if you do it too 0:16:49.640 --> 0:16:52.720 for homeless people though, that's fantastic. Well maybe that's what 0:16:52.760 --> 0:16:55.240 we'll do. Yeah, maybe that's a good idea, after we 0:16:55.280 --> 0:16:59.680 take a little bit off the top. Yeah, do you 0:16:59.680 --> 0:17:03.600 have parents and they must be awfully proud of what 0:17:03.640 --> 0:17:07.080 you've accomplished. Yeah, my grandma is and what do they 0:17:07.119 --> 0:17:10.480 make of your music? I mean, she definitely if I 0:17:10.520 --> 0:17:12.560 played it for her, she wouldn't know it was my music, 0:17:12.920 --> 0:17:14.399 and she would probably be like, I don't want to 0:17:14.400 --> 0:17:17.760 hear this, but she's proud, So they enjoy it or 0:17:18.280 --> 0:17:22.240 I don't think so, Okay, maybe some of them. There's 0:17:22.280 --> 0:17:25.200 there's probably a you know, maybe two that I could 0:17:25.240 --> 0:17:27.200 play her that she would be fine. Like what I mean, 0:17:27.280 --> 0:17:30.600 what portion of fandom do you think you have in 0:17:30.640 --> 0:17:34.160 the elderly community? Oh man? I mean I could look 0:17:34.200 --> 0:17:37.440 at my analytics on Twitter or or Instagram and it 0:17:37.440 --> 0:17:39.879 would be an interesting study. I I could look right 0:17:39.920 --> 0:17:41.760 to see. Let's look right now. Let's look right now. 0:17:41.840 --> 0:17:45.679 Let's see how many octogenarians you have who consider themselves fans. 0:17:46.480 --> 0:17:48.720 Let's see who love to get down to the beats 0:17:49.040 --> 0:17:53.440 um so that you can access Yeah, I'm not accessing 0:17:53.480 --> 0:17:58.199 it right now. Sixty four? We got one? Okay, sixty 0:17:58.280 --> 0:18:03.000 five plus I guess what, so one percent? These are 0:18:03.000 --> 0:18:11.879 the real one percenters, octogenarians who love d M while 0:18:11.920 --> 0:18:15.560 they're doing uh, you know, water aerobics at the pool. 0:18:15.680 --> 0:18:20.679 Yeah h thanks to them, thank you s m H. Right, Yeah, 0:18:20.800 --> 0:18:27.040 what do you think that means smh. Surely must help 0:18:27.960 --> 0:18:29.880 is what I always thought it man, it means shake 0:18:29.960 --> 0:18:33.000 my head, but it's okay. Shake Why would you want 0:18:33.000 --> 0:18:42.919 to shake your head? Sma smack? Am I right? Big time? Small? Yeah, 0:18:43.680 --> 0:18:50.440 let's talk about cholesterol medication lipatore good for controlling cholesterol levels? 0:18:50.480 --> 0:18:54.040 Or should people change their diets as well? I I 0:18:54.240 --> 0:18:58.000 legally I am not allowed to comment because the last 0:18:58.040 --> 0:19:01.280 time I did, right, I got okay because I don't 0:19:01.320 --> 0:19:05.560 know the specifics about to be able to common senses. 0:19:06.600 --> 0:19:11.120 Put down the cheeseburger, yes, or pick up the lipertur Yes, 0:19:11.720 --> 0:19:14.879 that's both some people need. But who knows. I'm I 0:19:14.920 --> 0:19:17.000 don't know what the right answer is. I'm not a doctor. 0:19:17.640 --> 0:19:21.560 If you're listening, what about molly? Do you ever take 0:19:21.600 --> 0:19:25.640 that stuff when I was younger? Should senior citizens take ecstasy? 0:19:27.119 --> 0:19:32.520 Mn't think so. It's pretty rough, but it's interesting. I 0:19:32.560 --> 0:19:35.280 wonder of your one per centers, if they're just riding 0:19:35.359 --> 0:19:38.720 the molly train all day long, they could be What 0:19:38.760 --> 0:19:42.560 do you think about this? I just thought of this idea, 0:19:42.600 --> 0:19:45.359 so forgive me if it's not fleshed out. How about 0:19:45.359 --> 0:19:49.560 a DJ school for senior citizens? M would that be 0:19:49.720 --> 0:19:53.520 something you'd be interested in setting up. Um, just get 0:19:53.520 --> 0:19:56.120 a bunch of octogenarians in a room, teach them about 0:19:56.200 --> 0:20:00.320 beat matching, cross fader, curve control, get some loops going, 0:20:00.600 --> 0:20:03.959 make some beats that honestly sounds like my own personal 0:20:04.040 --> 0:20:08.399 helpload it to SoundCloud. Not interested? Not How do you 0:20:08.720 --> 0:20:10.399 where did you learn those words? How do you know 0:20:10.520 --> 0:20:12.919 so much about DJ technique? Well, Carolina, you don't know 0:20:13.000 --> 0:20:16.680 everything about me. Okay, When I was doing cable news 0:20:16.680 --> 0:20:19.399 in New York City in the eighties, actually befriended Grand 0:20:19.440 --> 0:20:22.639 Master Flash for a period of time, and he showed 0:20:22.720 --> 0:20:25.280 me a couple of things on the ones and twos, 0:20:25.440 --> 0:20:30.040 and it's nothing like what Dylan can do here. But 0:20:30.040 --> 0:20:32.840 but the Flash and I did put out a single 0:20:32.880 --> 0:20:39.240 around three called news Funk two thousand. Quite serious? Can 0:20:39.280 --> 0:20:42.400 we hear it? I thought you'd never ask DJ Dillon Frances, 0:20:42.440 --> 0:20:45.880 Thank you, Carolina didn't ask me. Well, I didn't even know. Nick. 0:20:46.040 --> 0:20:49.200 Do you have news funk? Nick? You always have news 0:20:49.280 --> 0:20:52.359 Fun two thousand? Loaded up? Ready to go?

Why was it called news Funk two thousand? 0:21:52.920 --> 0:21:57.560 Beak um, Yeah, it's not very newsy? Yeah, I think 0:21:57.600 --> 0:21:59.720 it was. What did it sound anything like the two 0:21:59.720 --> 0:22:01.840 thous I think we were trying to predict what the 0:22:01.840 --> 0:22:04.920 two thousand sound was going to be like and wasn't that. 0:22:05.080 --> 0:22:09.480 It wasn't It wasn't this. But the drum machine was cool. Right, 0:22:10.160 --> 0:22:16.879 that's the best part. Um. I wish you Why are 0:22:16.920 --> 0:22:22.400 you laughing so much? It's maybe it's flattering. I feel 0:22:22.400 --> 0:22:25.080 like I never want to play it again. It's producing emotion. 0:22:25.160 --> 0:22:27.920 It's good. Absolutely, there you go. That absolutely is the 0:22:27.960 --> 0:22:31.399 way to take that. Okay, Well, I feel like you 0:22:31.400 --> 0:22:33.000 guys are making fun of me, but whatever, I have 0:22:33.119 --> 0:22:37.040 enough self esteem to know that Ron, you can do 0:22:37.119 --> 0:22:39.360 whatever you want. In news Funk two thousand, you took 0:22:39.400 --> 0:22:42.320 a chance, and um, you know that's what life is 0:22:42.320 --> 0:22:45.400 all about. You took an artistic chance and it went. 0:22:45.600 --> 0:22:47.840 I'm not going to be made to feel no, I 0:22:47.960 --> 0:22:52.080 went somewhere. It went exactly, thank you. In fact, that 0:22:52.200 --> 0:22:54.119 was one of the reviews of news Funk two thousand. 0:22:55.400 --> 0:23:01.120 This song went somewhere. One of the call newspapers said, 0:23:01.800 --> 0:23:04.000 well it went somewhere. What were some of the other 0:23:04.440 --> 0:23:07.959 if there? If you could name off? Very negative, very yeah, okay, 0:23:08.160 --> 0:23:12.840 very negative. Sorry. Um let me ask you this. Do 0:23:12.880 --> 0:23:17.399 you meditate? Um? I used to, and then well it 0:23:17.440 --> 0:23:21.200 was when I was younger and my dad made me wow, okay, 0:23:21.240 --> 0:23:24.920 which is really counterproductive to meditating. Why would you make 0:23:24.960 --> 0:23:29.840 someone forceful meditation? So he's like, son, for the last 0:23:29.880 --> 0:23:33.760 time you got to meditate, it was it's six o'clock 0:23:33.800 --> 0:23:38.919 meditation time. Sounded exactly like that. I just got flashbacks, Dylan, 0:23:39.040 --> 0:23:43.520 for Christ's sake? Did you meditate? Was that kind of 0:23:43.520 --> 0:23:48.480 the wow? So? So you never felt relaxed? No? No, 0:23:49.200 --> 0:23:51.920 The reason we had to meditate was we it was 0:23:51.960 --> 0:23:55.080 so that we could watch TV. So it was a tradeoff. 0:23:55.160 --> 0:23:57.520 It was a trade off meditate. And how long was 0:23:57.560 --> 0:24:00.320 the meditation period supposed to? Like an hour and hour? 0:24:01.520 --> 0:24:03.879 A lot of breathing experts. Now I'm on your side, 0:24:04.960 --> 0:24:08.600 maybe fifteen minutes. My dad still wakes up and at 0:24:09.400 --> 0:24:11.680 every morning. Did you find it helped you so much? 0:24:11.760 --> 0:24:12.879 Or were you just say it was too much of 0:24:12.880 --> 0:24:17.920 a punishment. I'm a as a little kid. Your mind exactly. 0:24:18.080 --> 0:24:20.080 I mean, my mind is going a mile a minute 0:24:20.119 --> 0:24:25.400 right now. I try to meditate every morning and I can't. Immediately, 0:24:25.880 --> 0:24:28.720 I started thinking about eight Mile, the movie eight Mile, 0:24:29.560 --> 0:24:31.679 and how we have to save the people from the 0:24:31.760 --> 0:24:34.000 nuclear reactor mailt down to three mile Oland. That's not 0:24:34.040 --> 0:24:36.520 what the movie was about, though. Gosh, I wish we 0:24:36.560 --> 0:24:38.760 could watch it right now and have this debate. It's 0:24:38.840 --> 0:24:41.200 not I guess we're going to have to agree to disagree. 0:24:41.359 --> 0:24:44.719 It's not what the movie is about though. Even well, anyway, 0:24:44.720 --> 0:24:47.520 when I meditate, that's those are the images that I'm 0:24:47.520 --> 0:24:51.160 pouring through my mind. It's like a carnival of horrors 0:24:51.160 --> 0:24:56.240 in my brain no matter what I do. So, so 0:24:56.400 --> 0:24:58.600 what do you do now to relax your mind and 0:24:59.040 --> 0:25:02.480 clear your head? Cause I'm sure you have a hectic schedule. Um, 0:25:02.560 --> 0:25:04.919 I take you know, take naps or something like that. 0:25:04.960 --> 0:25:07.760 And I just I enjoy working. I'm very thankful for 0:25:07.920 --> 0:25:10.040 Do you wake up and you just like boom, I've 0:25:10.040 --> 0:25:13.480 got a new beat, a new rhythm, a new a 0:25:13.520 --> 0:25:15.800 new song in my head. It's either that or like 0:25:16.000 --> 0:25:19.960 video ideas for for like music videos the visual expression 0:25:20.080 --> 0:25:24.040 of what you've already done. You But yeah, it's like that, 0:25:24.400 --> 0:25:26.600 or it's just sitting down in front of the computer 0:25:26.640 --> 0:25:29.399 and then kind of just you know, chipping away at whatever. 0:25:29.920 --> 0:25:32.560 I imagine you travel a lot for your work. How 0:25:32.560 --> 0:25:34.360 many how many dates a year are you on the road? 0:25:35.280 --> 0:25:39.639 Probably like a hundred and forty something, hundred and fifty something, 0:25:39.680 --> 0:25:43.840 pretty extensive. A lot of traveling, A lot of traveling. 0:25:44.560 --> 0:25:48.160 Back to the elderly. Speaking of traveling, you know, and 0:25:48.320 --> 0:25:50.600 though I work with the elderly, sometimes I do kind 0:25:50.600 --> 0:25:52.439 of resent the fact that they're able to get on 0:25:52.440 --> 0:25:55.080 a plane before me, just because they're old and needs 0:25:55.119 --> 0:25:58.719
