| 0:11.6 | Judy actually made Jack and I say wow earlier. |
| 0:14.6 | We were talking about weird places that you fell asleep. |
| 0:17.6 | She used to work in a hospital, had a big night out, thought she'd go and find a quiet |
| 0:21.4 | room in the hospital. She found a very, very quiet side room in the hospital when she woke |
| 0:26.4 | up in the early hours with the sunlight coming through the blinds. She realized that there'd been |
| 0:30.1 | someone else in a room asleep in a body bag, dead in this tiny little side room. This is an |
| 0:35.3 | amazing story. Tom from Julie. All right, 9414-14-1043. What's your story that |
