00:24
this during his lunch break he said it was a very bad idea you know that made james go i'm gonna do
00:30
it don't tell me what to do the only thing that i think is a bad idea about this is that we're having
00:37

00:47
james before we get into this uh number one flip the blister over and use your thumbnail to pierce
00:53
the foil you push the peanut through you make sure uh you do it carefully you should always have
01:00
