01:01been tag teaming it Zach is good during the day can't do the night though I do
01:06the night I've got the gift and curse of driving through the night so it's been
01:13hasn't been too bad the first three dates were psyched because we did Atlanta to
01:19Dallas which is like 13 hours and then we did Dallas to Denver which is like 12
01:25hours and then Denver to Salt Lake which is like 12 hours yeah all back to back
01:29which was crazy but that was probably the worst run everything else has been more
01:34doable while we drive we've been let's see what are we done crime junkies yeah
