WEBVTT - Confessions From The Blind Date Column 👀 🕵️‍♂️ 💕

0:00:00.920 --> 0:00:04.520
<v Speaker 1>Flex and Firms Flex and Firms. This is the Flex

0:00:04.519 --> 0:00:09.920
<v Speaker 1>and Frooms catch up podcast. Always I'm hearing people bemoaning

0:00:10.000 --> 0:00:13.280
<v Speaker 1>the current dating scene. Well on the apps redacted. We

0:00:13.280 --> 0:00:15.760
<v Speaker 1>won't name them because we do often like to work

0:00:15.800 --> 0:00:18.160
<v Speaker 1>with that apps. I speak on behalf of myself. There

0:00:18.320 --> 0:00:21.040
<v Speaker 1>is a column in the Guardian in the UK called

0:00:21.120 --> 0:00:24.279
<v Speaker 1>first Dates where the guardian sets up two people they've

0:00:24.280 --> 0:00:26.920
<v Speaker 1>never met, they don't know who each other are is,

0:00:27.560 --> 0:00:29.800
<v Speaker 1>and they go to a restaurant. The guardian pays for

0:00:29.800 --> 0:00:32.120
<v Speaker 1>the food that drinks us all in the house. They

0:00:32.200 --> 0:00:34.479
<v Speaker 1>then wait, so, wat's the prompt with this?

0:00:34.920 --> 0:00:37.120
<v Speaker 2>Is it kind of like a blind date situation where

0:00:37.159 --> 0:00:39.520
<v Speaker 2>the guardian is pairing you with someone that is deemed

0:00:39.520 --> 0:00:40.960
<v Speaker 2>to be compatible or it's.

0:00:40.880 --> 0:00:43.879
<v Speaker 1>Just vibes, it's blind day vibes. Yeah, so the guardians like,

0:00:44.200 --> 0:00:46.440
<v Speaker 1>you put your application in, then allegedly you go into

0:00:46.440 --> 0:00:49.360
<v Speaker 1>a file and then the guardian reaches out to you

0:00:49.440 --> 0:00:51.160
<v Speaker 1>and be like, yeah, we think you have a match,

0:00:51.200 --> 0:00:54.640
<v Speaker 1>and they will liaise to get the date. It is

0:00:54.680 --> 0:00:58.200
<v Speaker 1>so entertaining because what they then do is they get

0:00:58.200 --> 0:01:00.480
<v Speaker 1>sent like a questionnaire about the date would you see

0:01:00.520 --> 0:01:04.520
<v Speaker 1>them again? Data? And it's all like prefabricated questions, so

0:01:04.640 --> 0:01:07.720
<v Speaker 1>everyone's answer goes through the same format, which I think

0:01:07.760 --> 0:01:09.520
<v Speaker 1>is why I love the article, because it's like you

0:01:09.600 --> 0:01:11.520
<v Speaker 1>just know exactly what you're going to get, and then

0:01:11.560 --> 0:01:13.640
<v Speaker 1>they'll say would you go on another date? They also

0:01:13.680 --> 0:01:16.119
<v Speaker 1>ask like did you kiss? Or what did you want?

0:01:16.160 --> 0:01:18.240
<v Speaker 1>Was your first impression? And did any you know? And

0:01:18.280 --> 0:01:20.640
<v Speaker 1>they and they get like people are salty sometimes or

0:01:20.680 --> 0:01:22.959
<v Speaker 1>really like spoil the tea. But you can also tell

0:01:23.000 --> 0:01:26.640
<v Speaker 1>when people have spoken on the date and said, oh,

0:01:26.959 --> 0:01:31.039
<v Speaker 1>let's rig our answers to like safe face. But for

0:01:31.080 --> 0:01:33.160
<v Speaker 1>the most part it's quite wholesome. You have you seen it?

0:01:33.240 --> 0:01:36.560
<v Speaker 1>Mcke I saw the ad for when it was coming here,

0:01:36.560 --> 0:01:39.240
<v Speaker 1>but I had no idea the context behind it. This ad, guys,

0:01:39.280 --> 0:01:42.080
<v Speaker 1>The Guardian posted on Instagram. Why am I seeing like

0:01:42.120 --> 0:01:44.840
<v Speaker 1>thirty people that I know personally tagging their friends? You

0:01:44.880 --> 0:01:47.040
<v Speaker 1>guys are shameless and I love it. Have you have

0:01:47.080 --> 0:01:48.360
<v Speaker 1>you read the articles.

0:01:48.480 --> 0:01:50.240
<v Speaker 2>Not up until you shared it? I hadn't. I hadn't

0:01:50.280 --> 0:01:50.880
<v Speaker 2>heard of it before.

0:01:51.040 --> 0:01:53.120
<v Speaker 1>Did you click through the link that? I'm absolutely okay,

0:01:53.160 --> 0:01:53.480
<v Speaker 1>good to.

0:01:53.440 --> 0:01:57.400
<v Speaker 2>Know and it's fantastic. I think it's a lot more

0:01:57.480 --> 0:02:01.360
<v Speaker 2>high pressure then you would have it seen the idea

0:02:01.440 --> 0:02:05.880
<v Speaker 2>that you nameless, faithless person sign up to potentially go

0:02:05.920 --> 0:02:07.800
<v Speaker 2>on a blind date with someone that is not so

0:02:07.960 --> 0:02:10.640
<v Speaker 2>blind because by the end of it you get hundreds

0:02:10.639 --> 0:02:11.280
<v Speaker 2>of thousands of.

0:02:11.240 --> 0:02:13.040
<v Speaker 1>People waiting in on your date.

0:02:13.560 --> 0:02:16.960
<v Speaker 2>I'd feel so blindsided if I went on what I

0:02:16.960 --> 0:02:18.680
<v Speaker 2>thought was a good date and then I could read

0:02:18.720 --> 0:02:22.120
<v Speaker 2>their feedback, but not privately. Everybody else is reading the

0:02:22.160 --> 0:02:26.079
<v Speaker 2>feedback alongside. How mutual do you think the Guardian is

0:02:26.240 --> 0:02:29.320
<v Speaker 2>being do they do? Do you think from their perspective,

0:02:29.400 --> 0:02:31.800
<v Speaker 2>they're just here for the social experiment vibe of it all,

0:02:31.800 --> 0:02:36.120
<v Speaker 2>although trying to kind of facilitate something salacious and juicy.

0:02:36.040 --> 0:02:37.800
<v Speaker 1>Like when Australian and I would get people who are

0:02:37.840 --> 0:02:40.320
<v Speaker 1>like really bad to sing through the auditions best part

0:02:40.320 --> 0:02:42.200
<v Speaker 1>of the show. I must say. I dropped off after

0:02:42.320 --> 0:02:45.080
<v Speaker 1>the first round, came back for the finale obviously at

0:02:45.120 --> 0:02:47.720
<v Speaker 1>the Opera House. Listen. I actually have then inside scoop

0:02:47.760 --> 0:02:51.240
<v Speaker 1>from a chick who went in the UK. I actually

0:02:51.280 --> 0:02:53.760
<v Speaker 1>have two scoops. Two women reached out and said I

0:02:53.840 --> 0:02:55.639
<v Speaker 1>went on one this year in January in the UK.

0:02:56.040 --> 0:02:59.120
<v Speaker 1>Another woman went a few years ago. I'm going to

0:02:59.120 --> 0:03:00.840
<v Speaker 1>tell you exactly what we down I feel like the

0:03:00.840 --> 0:03:04.080
<v Speaker 1>Guardian would effing hate that I do this. Why because

0:03:04.080 --> 0:03:06.799
<v Speaker 1>I'm like giving, I'm like sharing emails and stuff. It's

0:03:06.840 --> 0:03:12.040
<v Speaker 1>so so like if i I'd be mad, Why are

0:03:12.080 --> 0:03:14.040
<v Speaker 1>you doing that? Please?

0:03:14.400 --> 0:03:14.520
<v Speaker 2>Now?

0:03:14.639 --> 0:03:17.200
<v Speaker 1>They love me, love me listen. Okay, So this woman

0:03:17.240 --> 0:03:19.720
<v Speaker 1>messaged me I'm not gonna lie. I was so surprised

0:03:19.760 --> 0:03:22.720
<v Speaker 1>by how much she was sharing and like happy for

0:03:22.760 --> 0:03:24.880
<v Speaker 1>me to keep her name in it. You you are

0:03:24.960 --> 0:03:26.920
<v Speaker 1>the journal that everyone should be fearful.

0:03:26.919 --> 0:03:29.520
<v Speaker 2>Long they make you feel comfortable, so you spill your

0:03:29.520 --> 0:03:31.800
<v Speaker 2>guts like they told me all this stuff.

0:03:32.080 --> 0:03:34.080
<v Speaker 1>They say, oh frek, well, I say, yeah, oh record,

0:03:34.639 --> 0:03:36.800
<v Speaker 1>I accidently post there. It's like when you suppost people's

0:03:36.800 --> 0:03:40.120
<v Speaker 1>screenshots of their messages and like try and wipe out

0:03:40.360 --> 0:03:43.200
<v Speaker 1>all of their features and then down the very end

0:03:43.240 --> 0:03:46.240
<v Speaker 1>it like I thought you do that on purpose. Okay,

0:03:46.560 --> 0:03:48.680
<v Speaker 1>not unless they savage me like there was. There have

0:03:48.720 --> 0:03:50.600
<v Speaker 1>been a few moments where there's been some terse times

0:03:50.600 --> 0:03:56.000
<v Speaker 1>and I've accidentally left a few details in just in case. Yeah, okay,

0:03:56.040 --> 0:03:58.640
<v Speaker 1>so I see Guardian coming to Australia. I put it up.

0:03:59.120 --> 0:04:02.200
<v Speaker 1>Chick messages me. She says, I was on it. It's great,

0:04:02.280 --> 0:04:06.960
<v Speaker 1>best and lowest maintenance ever. Her name was Sasha, so

0:04:07.000 --> 0:04:10.880
<v Speaker 1>she told me that she went through the forum and

0:04:10.920 --> 0:04:14.040
<v Speaker 1>put her details in. Then the Guardian reach out. Hi, Sasha,

0:04:14.080 --> 0:04:15.640
<v Speaker 1>I think if you're interested in taking part in the

0:04:15.640 --> 0:04:18.400
<v Speaker 1>Weekend's blind Date column, We'll try our best to find

0:04:18.440 --> 0:04:20.280
<v Speaker 1>a suitable match for you. But please understand that we

0:04:20.320 --> 0:04:23.200
<v Speaker 1>can't always match everybody straight away, so your patience is appreciated.

0:04:23.440 --> 0:04:24.680
<v Speaker 1>If you could let me know a little bit more

0:04:24.680 --> 0:04:28.480
<v Speaker 1>about yourself, location, occupation, interest, hobbies, hate that question and

0:04:28.520 --> 0:04:30.159
<v Speaker 1>the type of person you're looking to meet. That would

0:04:30.200 --> 0:04:32.039
<v Speaker 1>be great and can you send me in a recent

0:04:32.080 --> 0:04:35.960

0:04:44.040 --> 0:04:46.200
<v Speaker 1>wider population. I'd be happy to go on a date

0:04:46.240 --> 0:04:48.279

<v Speaker 1>year old vicinity. Please tell me, Please tell me what

0:04:54.920 --> 0:04:56.760
<v Speaker 1>the Guardians is Sasha, I think I may have found

0:04:56.760 --> 0:04:58.800
<v Speaker 1>a match for you. It's early days, But what's your

0:04:58.800 --> 0:05:02.320
<v Speaker 1>availability like? But next week, all the week commencing Monday nineteenth,

0:05:02.440 --> 0:05:03.839
<v Speaker 1>let me know some dates and I can see if

0:05:03.880 --> 0:05:05.560
<v Speaker 1>I can get you a date aligned. I love this

0:05:05.560 --> 0:05:09.599
<v Speaker 1>Guardian person's email, Eticua, since she tells me more that Emi.

0:05:09.680 --> 0:05:11.720
<v Speaker 1>We confirmed the restaurant and I was supposed to arrive

0:05:11.720 --> 0:05:14.080
<v Speaker 1>and say I was there for the Guardian. His name's Nick.

0:05:14.160 --> 0:05:16.159
<v Speaker 1>He'd already arrived first and in the scheme of things,

0:05:16.279 --> 0:05:18.880
<v Speaker 1>it was a really nice date. I was disappointed because

0:05:18.880 --> 0:05:20.520
<v Speaker 1>he didn't want to share a bottle of wine. It

0:05:20.560 --> 0:05:22.680
<v Speaker 1>was on the Guardian's tab, so I was like, why

0:05:22.720 --> 0:05:25.279
<v Speaker 1>not frame one? And we had great chats. He's thinking

0:05:25.360 --> 0:05:27.120
<v Speaker 1>like I can't. I have to be a reliable witness,

0:05:28.360 --> 0:05:32.400
<v Speaker 1>get a few drinks and suddenly love everyone. Ever Yeah, yeah, yeah,

0:05:32.480 --> 0:05:34.840
<v Speaker 1>there wasn't a huge spark there. I gave him a

0:05:34.920 --> 0:05:36.520
<v Speaker 1>nice review because I was like, well, better to be

0:05:36.560 --> 0:05:39.120
<v Speaker 1>the nicer party than the stingy one. Yeah. All in all,

0:05:39.160 --> 0:05:40.760
<v Speaker 1>I was pretty happy with what he wrote about me.

0:05:41.279 --> 0:05:43.400
<v Speaker 1>I do remember panicking the day after, though, because I'd

0:05:43.400 --> 0:05:45.279
<v Speaker 1>applied and didn't think through the fact that it would

0:05:45.279 --> 0:05:47.240
<v Speaker 1>be in the paper. I think because I'd followed it

0:05:47.240 --> 0:05:49.520
<v Speaker 1>from oz where it's a niche online article. Okay, real

0:05:49.560 --> 0:05:51.840
<v Speaker 1>months stand up and on the date. He worked for

0:05:51.880 --> 0:05:54.279
<v Speaker 1>the BBC and had to get approval from the bosses

0:05:54.320 --> 0:05:55.719
<v Speaker 1>to go on the date. And I hadn't told anyone

0:05:55.720 --> 0:05:58.440
<v Speaker 1>at work because I work at a radio station, same siss.

0:05:58.600 --> 0:06:00.880
<v Speaker 1>It only occurred to me and media to do this.

0:06:01.720 --> 0:06:06.200
<v Speaker 1>It's all yeah, truure type, myself included. But then the

0:06:06.200 --> 0:06:08.000
<v Speaker 1>first person who texted me the date came out was

0:06:08.040 --> 0:06:09.920
<v Speaker 1>my boss, and he tweeted it to all of his followers,

0:06:09.960 --> 0:06:12.200
<v Speaker 1>so he thought it was good. And then I asked

0:06:12.200 --> 0:06:15.520
<v Speaker 1>her what was it like, like, were you worried that

0:06:15.560 --> 0:06:17.520
<v Speaker 1>the guy was going to rate your date as not good?

0:06:17.680 --> 0:06:17.920
<v Speaker 2>Mmm?

0:06:18.680 --> 0:06:20.600
<v Speaker 1>And I said I personally would be on best behavior

0:06:20.640 --> 0:06:22.840
<v Speaker 1>and performing so they didn't rip me a new asshole.

0:06:23.080 --> 0:06:26.000
<v Speaker 1>She said. I remember being a little annoyed because we

0:06:26.000 --> 0:06:27.960
<v Speaker 1>didn't really talk about what we'd rate each other, but

0:06:28.120 --> 0:06:30.440
<v Speaker 1>I was on best behavior. He got my number and

0:06:30.560 --> 0:06:32.640
<v Speaker 1>was like, let's catch up again, and then I heard

0:06:32.720 --> 0:06:34.960
<v Speaker 1>nada from him except for a text like the day

0:06:35.000 --> 0:06:38.520
<v Speaker 1>before our reviews, would you on each other? Just checking

0:06:38.520 --> 0:06:39.640
<v Speaker 1>in see how I was going?

0:06:40.000 --> 0:06:44.279
<v Speaker 2>Then literally, okay, the timing, the timing wah wah, we

0:06:44.279 --> 0:06:44.839
<v Speaker 2>were okay.

0:06:45.200 --> 0:06:47.440
<v Speaker 1>Then literally the day after our reviews went in but

0:06:47.480 --> 0:06:50.840
<v Speaker 1>before publication, he texted being like, oh, sorry, I haven't

0:06:50.880 --> 0:06:53.080
<v Speaker 1>been in touch. I actually reconnected with an old flame,

0:06:53.560 --> 0:06:55.240
<v Speaker 1>so I don't think anything will happen with us or

0:06:55.279 --> 0:06:57.719
<v Speaker 1>something along those lines. I wasn't miffed about the rejection

0:06:57.800 --> 0:07:01.080
<v Speaker 1>message because like, who hasn't gone on, but I felt

0:07:01.120 --> 0:07:02.960
<v Speaker 1>like he played the timeline, so I'd write nice things

0:07:02.960 --> 0:07:05.279
<v Speaker 1>about him and then came clean the day after that

0:07:05.360 --> 0:07:09.400
<v Speaker 1>adds up, which I said, you kind of ate with that. Yeah,

0:07:09.600 --> 0:07:13.600
<v Speaker 1>hilarious because this other woman who messaged me also hilarious,

0:07:13.960 --> 0:07:16.360
<v Speaker 1>was talking about how this will take me two minutes.

0:07:16.400 --> 0:07:17.720
<v Speaker 1>I actually have to share the second one because I

0:07:17.760 --> 0:07:19.080
<v Speaker 1>didn't put this on my stories, so it was like

0:07:19.920 --> 0:07:21.880
<v Speaker 1>that was essentially for people who follow the podcast but

0:07:21.920 --> 0:07:25.600
<v Speaker 1>don't follow my personal social media, which is offensive, but yeah,

0:07:25.680 --> 0:07:29.520
<v Speaker 1>you gotta get your flexi somewhere, all right, his chic

0:07:30.760 --> 0:07:33.000
<v Speaker 1>She said. I also went on one twenty twenty three's

0:07:33.080 --> 0:07:36.120
<v Speaker 1>first issue got absolutely violated by the editor and the

0:07:36.120 --> 0:07:40.280
<v Speaker 1>photographer and severely severely cut by the editor. So essentially

0:07:40.320 --> 0:07:41.880
<v Speaker 1>she was saying that they did so dirty with the

0:07:41.880 --> 0:07:43.680
<v Speaker 1>photos that they took because they do a photo shoot

0:07:43.680 --> 0:07:46.040
<v Speaker 1>before the date. And then she said she was being

0:07:46.080 --> 0:07:49.040
<v Speaker 1>funny in the answers and they gave her nothing. She said,

0:07:49.080 --> 0:07:52.240
<v Speaker 1>I sent the application email in May last year, and

0:07:52.280 --> 0:07:54.040
<v Speaker 1>then she got the email in January, so that's like

0:07:54.360 --> 0:07:57.200
<v Speaker 1>ages ago. She said. The response is almost identical to

0:07:57.240 --> 0:08:00.000
<v Speaker 1>your other chick no hits until November when I got

0:08:00.040 --> 0:08:02.200
<v Speaker 1>asked to come in for the professional photo shoot. Picks

0:08:02.520 --> 0:08:04.960
<v Speaker 1>arrived at Guardian HQ in London and the editor said

0:08:05.000 --> 0:08:06.920
<v Speaker 1>she'd found a good match, but he lives in Newcastle

0:08:06.960 --> 0:08:09.880
<v Speaker 1>that's four hours away and also loves vinyl. Doesn't sound

0:08:09.880 --> 0:08:12.840
<v Speaker 1>like a very good match to me. Insert editor's name.

0:08:13.800 --> 0:08:16.680
<v Speaker 1>She said she was going back to the drawing board.

0:08:16.800 --> 0:08:19.120
<v Speaker 1>Good idea, editor, but I got my picks taken anyway.

0:08:19.520 --> 0:08:22.880
<v Speaker 1>In the full studio setup with the photographer, shy girl

0:08:22.880 --> 0:08:25.440
<v Speaker 1>turned into model girl and the photographer was throwing things

0:08:25.440 --> 0:08:27.680
<v Speaker 1>around like you're in natural etc. Love that gus live,

0:08:28.240 --> 0:08:31.480
<v Speaker 1>thank you your good vibes all around. She said she'd

0:08:31.480 --> 0:08:33.560
<v Speaker 1>pick the best one and make sure I was totally

0:08:33.559 --> 0:08:36.560
<v Speaker 1>the one being looked at. Told her my national newspaper

0:08:36.559 --> 0:08:38.800
<v Speaker 1>debut was in her hands. Two weeks later, I got

0:08:38.840 --> 0:08:40.920
<v Speaker 1>an email confirmation from the editor that it was go time.

0:08:41.160 --> 0:08:43.079
<v Speaker 1>Turned up to the Good restaurant, had already been there,

0:08:43.080 --> 0:08:46.080
<v Speaker 1>but pretended I hadn't. Crazy face. My guy was already

0:08:46.080 --> 0:08:50.320
<v Speaker 1>there looking like any other English white guy. Was this

0:08:50.559 --> 0:08:54.719
<v Speaker 1>is just something else? I like her? Yeah, she's funny.

0:08:54.360 --> 0:08:57.199
<v Speaker 1>I was totally surprised, though, and made use of the

0:08:57.200 --> 0:08:59.800
<v Speaker 1>full Guardian budget. Three courses cocktails, why new name? It

0:09:00.200 --> 0:09:05.200
<v Speaker 1>it that they fully thought we were food critics, being

0:09:05.200 --> 0:09:07.600
<v Speaker 1>a tent tivaf so people they say I'm here for

0:09:07.640 --> 0:09:09.640
<v Speaker 1>the Guardian and the waiters are thinking of it's HM

0:09:10.280 --> 0:09:13.200
<v Speaker 1>forod critics solidate until the post pub end. When he

0:09:13.240 --> 0:09:15.160
<v Speaker 1>asked what I was going to do ari ratings. I

0:09:15.200 --> 0:09:16.960
<v Speaker 1>said we would just give each other the same number.

0:09:17.280 --> 0:09:19.439
<v Speaker 1>He said it'd be cool to refuse to answer it,

0:09:19.480 --> 0:09:21.160
<v Speaker 1>and I saw the pure terror in his eyes. So

0:09:21.240 --> 0:09:25.080
<v Speaker 1>I agreed, sent the street selfie and answer in and

0:09:25.120 --> 0:09:28.280
<v Speaker 1>that was it until publication day. The editor did me

0:09:28.559 --> 0:09:30.960
<v Speaker 1>dirty with the pick choice moral of the story don't

0:09:31.000 --> 0:09:34.480
<v Speaker 1>trust photographers called insert name, and don't wear fox liver

0:09:34.600 --> 0:09:37.280
<v Speaker 1>pants to a pro photo shoot. The editor also cut

0:09:37.320 --> 0:09:38.920
<v Speaker 1>most of my answers her job, I get it, but

0:09:38.960 --> 0:09:42.280
<v Speaker 1>made them less funny, overall hilarious experience and would definitely

0:09:42.840 --> 0:09:45.840
<v Speaker 1>time six thirty nine two zero recommend anyone to apply

0:09:45.880 --> 0:09:48.520
<v Speaker 1>for the free dinner, good story to tell the grandkids,

0:09:48.520 --> 0:09:50.360
<v Speaker 1>and potential for the love your life or maybe just

0:09:50.360 --> 0:09:52.559
<v Speaker 1>a second date. Does this person also work in media?

0:09:53.880 --> 0:09:57.720
<v Speaker 1>Medical student? I'm obsessed with them. Mave so, guys, I

0:09:57.760 --> 0:10:00.719
<v Speaker 1>reckon my advice. If you're gonna apply some pizzas in

0:10:00.760 --> 0:10:03.920
<v Speaker 1>the email, but still keep it to Guardian tone, like

0:10:03.920 --> 0:10:06.080
<v Speaker 1>I think they're going to go for a certain no,

0:10:06.280 --> 0:10:07.319
<v Speaker 1>do it if you want to.

0:10:08.080 --> 0:10:11.640
<v Speaker 2>If someone applying is gonna do it to Guardian tone,

0:10:11.640 --> 0:10:13.320
<v Speaker 2>they don't need to kick back for that. They don't

0:10:13.360 --> 0:10:15.160
<v Speaker 2>work for the Guardian. Do it because you want to

0:10:15.520 --> 0:10:17.080
<v Speaker 2>do it because you're gonna find the love of your life.

0:10:17.200 --> 0:10:17.640
<v Speaker 1>Okay.

0:10:17.880 --> 0:10:20.160
<v Speaker 2>Otherwise, the Guardian's only agenda here is to make a

0:10:20.160 --> 0:10:21.960
<v Speaker 2>good story, and they don't care if they make you

0:10:21.960 --> 0:10:22.760
<v Speaker 2>look to get it.

0:10:23.240 --> 0:10:28.160
<v Speaker 1>I'm sure, So protect yourself. Oh my word. You've been

0:10:28.160 --> 0:10:31.040
