43
00:02:07,800 --> 00:02:09,480
Speaker 1: I put it on a chair, I go over to

44
00:02:09,520 --> 00:02:14,280

Speaker 1: room miles away from me, a phone starts.

51
00:02:31,120 --> 00:02:34,960
Speaker 2: Ringing, what's this?

52
00:02:34,960 --> 00:02:37,960
Speaker 1: This is the ring target. So I'm standing there and

53
00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:42,239
Speaker 1: Handley says, some dope slept his phone on. And at

54
00:02:42,240 --> 00:02:44,960

55
00:02:45,440 --> 00:02:46,040
Speaker 1: and that's my.

56
00:02:46,120 --> 00:02:48,160

Speaker 1: The other thing was he just sat there and this

60
00:02:58,240 --> 00:03:00,000
Speaker 1: is how it's running because I couldn't switch it off

61
00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:05,760
Speaker 1: because I had it set without voicemailing. And I said

62
00:03:05,800 --> 00:03:09,640
Speaker 1: to Ray, that's my phone, and Handley says, you're a

63

00:03:15,320 --> 00:03:17,000
Speaker 2: the ignity of this blasting round.

66
00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:20,440
