88
00:04:17,240 --> 00:04:18,240
Speaker 1: when they're trying to sleep.

89
00:04:18,880 --> 00:04:21,159
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, and it's staticky. You can hear all the

90
00:04:21,200 --> 00:04:23,920
Speaker 2: static because we've got cameras in there. And it's really

91
00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:26,279
Speaker 2: great because if Hervey get into trouble, he can just

92
00:04:26,279 --> 00:04:28,280
Speaker 2: go on a dog house and listen to Gold.

93
00:04:28,640 --> 00:04:32,200
Speaker 1: So so it's old and crap this radio station, and

94
00:04:32,200 --> 00:04:33,560
Speaker 1: now it's used to form of punishment.

95
00:04:34,720 --> 00:04:37,880
Speaker 2: Absolutely, yeah, but he likes these gold so and I

96
00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:39,960
Speaker 2: like my gold. But it's out. They're the dogs. For

97
00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:41,160
Speaker 2: some reason, they enjoy it.

98
00:04:41,160 --> 00:04:43,560
Speaker 1: We're literally in the dog outs every morning doing this.

99
00:04:44,480 --> 00:04:46,800
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, yeah, and we just we leave it on

100
00:04:46,839 --> 00:04:47,599
Speaker 2: twenty four to seven.

101
00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:49,560
Speaker 1: So is it a bit like a bit of companion

102
00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:50,200
Speaker 1: for the dogs.

103
00:04:50,960 --> 00:04:53,560
Speaker 2: I don't look, I don't know. And because it's staticky

104
00:04:53,640 --> 00:04:55,960
Speaker 2: for some reason, they just when we turn it off

105
00:04:56,000 --> 00:05:00,680
Speaker 2: they get a little bit thank you. I don't like

106
00:05:00,720 --> 00:05:01,360
Speaker 2: white noise.

107
00:05:01,720 --> 00:05:06,520

108
00:05:06,520 --> 00:05:08,800

109
00:05:08,839 --> 00:05:11,360
Speaker 1: show plays again at seven o'clock and then at midnight,

110
00:05:11,480 --> 00:05:13,880

Speaker 1: growing up. My my dad had always on in the

134
00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:23,080
Speaker 1: kitchen in the morning, it was like the soundtracker getting

135
00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:26,200
Speaker 1: ready for school and then going off to work. And
