24:42 Speaker 2: old studio and a gentleman comes walking out, and man,

24:45 Speaker 2: he looked like he was a real you know, country

24:49 Speaker 2: guy or something, just like he just you know, he

24:51 Speaker 2: was real, real, you know, professional, you know. And I

24:54 Speaker 2: see him coming out, how you doing, real nice guy?

25:21 Speaker 2: that much.

25:21 Speaker 7: But same.

25:22 Speaker 1: And he's one of those people too, you know, even

25:24 Speaker 1: if you didn't know him that well, you felt like

25:26 Speaker 1: you knew him, like really well. It was impossible to

25:29 Speaker 1: not feel that immense sense of loss at the shock

25:32 Speaker 1: of the news, you know, And it's it's one of

25:34 Speaker 1: those things, you know, don't don't take anything for granted.

25:39 Speaker 2: And uh it's kind of like loss brings me into
