0:39.9 | the anthropologist, give the introduction, make the analogies, I call him Rodney to my Del Boy. |
0:48.4 | Did you get that reference? No, I do not get that reference but it's very complimentary British people will understand so it's very good trust me |
0:58.7 | Okay fine fine fine well good on you.

3:01.0 | Aren't you supposed to get like inspected at your age. |
