36
00:01:51,045 --> 00:01:56,165
Speaker 2: I will say this, this was a flimsy mug. I

37
00:01:56,205 --> 00:01:57,885
Speaker 2: brought in all that was left of it today, which

38
00:01:57,925 --> 00:01:59,845
Speaker 2: was the handle, and I placed it down here after

39
00:01:59,845 --> 00:02:01,805
Speaker 2: talking about it on the show, and literally placed it

40
00:02:01,885 --> 00:02:04,765
Speaker 2: onto an A four pad and it crumpled again like

41
00:02:04,805 --> 00:02:05,805
Speaker 2: a daddy long legs.

42
00:02:06,205 --> 00:02:07,485
Speaker 5: It's almost like a prop mug.

43
00:02:07,605 --> 00:02:09,805
Speaker 2: Well that's why I think I don't think this is

44
00:02:10,005 --> 00:02:13,645
