<v Speaker 2>And why wouldn't they need her to do this? And

0:01:45.840 --> 0:01:48.000
<v Speaker 2>she would make it for ten years? We did. We

0:01:48.120 --> 0:01:48.840

0:01:49.040 --> 0:01:51.440
<v Speaker 3>So what do you mean they say that they got

0:01:51.480 --> 0:01:53.880
<v Speaker 3>somebody down here that's gonna do the dressing. Let it says,

0:01:53.960 --> 0:01:56.160
<v Speaker 3>y'all traveling y'all ain't got to bring it, you know,

0:01:56.520 --> 0:01:58.559
<v Speaker 3>and be traveling with it. But they got somebody gonna

0:01:58.600 --> 0:01:59.240
<v Speaker 3>do the dressing.

0:01:59.560 --> 0:02:02.840
<v Speaker 2>Okay, Well, first of all, how are you your your benie?

0:02:03.080 --> 0:02:03.880
<v Speaker 2>What is your name?

0:02:04.120 --> 0:02:06.640
<v Speaker 3>That was not my name, Benjamin, but they called me Benji.

0:02:06.880 --> 0:02:10.519
<v Speaker 3>But but but like I say, I'm on the other

0:02:10.600 --> 0:02:12.440
<v Speaker 3>side of the fair. I ain't on y'all side.

0:02:12.560 --> 0:02:15.000
<v Speaker 2>Okay. Well, I'm still trying to figure out why you

0:02:15.160 --> 0:02:18.280
<v Speaker 2>calling me because she's been making a dressing for ten years,

0:02:18.480 --> 0:02:21.280
<v Speaker 2>like I said, and I mean it's been discussed. So

0:02:21.320 --> 0:02:23.160
<v Speaker 2>I don't even know why why you're calling me. I

0:02:23.160 --> 0:02:24.080
<v Speaker 2>don't even know you.

0:02:24.720 --> 0:02:26.840
<v Speaker 3>Okay, Well, what I'm trying to explain to you is

0:02:26.880 --> 0:02:29.240
<v Speaker 3>this right here is daddy they got so y'all ain't

0:02:29.240 --> 0:02:32.280
<v Speaker 3>got to worry with bringing the dressing. They got somebody

0:02:32.280 --> 0:02:35.000
<v Speaker 3>gonna bring. They got somebody down here that's gonna cook it.

0:02:35.080 --> 0:02:37.560
<v Speaker 3>So in other word, what you know, if you can

0:02:37.639 --> 0:02:39.440
<v Speaker 3>tell Miss Pervis she ain't got to worry about the

0:02:39.520 --> 0:02:40.240

0:02:40.440 --> 0:02:42.920
<v Speaker 2>Oh so you want me to tell my mama after

0:02:43.000 --> 0:02:45.480
<v Speaker 2>she's been making dressing for ten years that y'all say,

0:02:46.160 --> 0:02:47.840
<v Speaker 2>y'all ain't worried about she shouldn't have to make it

0:02:47.880 --> 0:02:50.280
<v Speaker 2>this year because we're driving now, we drive camper year.

0:02:50.720 --> 0:02:52.560
<v Speaker 2>So I'm not gonna do that to her.
