| 0:00.0 | The So, No, it's not I don't have to take an extended break from the Rantcast, just awful and I mean you know he's he's been more successful |
| 0:34.6 | and earned more money than most people ever will in a lifetime in terms of |
| 0:38.6 | adulation and success in his particular chosen field but it doesn't make too much difference to the fact that if you're in your mid-20s and you suddenly lose your career that's absolutely horrendous thing to happen to anyone. |
| 0:51.0 | Yeah, well I mean there's no guarantee that he'll come back, I suppose he's taking |
