| 0:19.0 | Yeah. |
| 0:20.0 | How you guys doing? |
| 0:34.4 | You know, we've had this conversation quite a few times you know just checking in with people and I guess that in some respects that's a good thing because everyone is constantly checking in with each other out on the floor and making looking after one another. |
