[00:00:26]You hear the Tahoe man outside. You know I'm in the Philippines.

[00:00:31]Tahoe. You hear him out there.

[00:00:35]You know these are the call. Yeah.

[00:00:36]Maranda. Maranda. Those are the sounds.

[00:00:39]Those are the the fool calls in the morning.

[00:00:44]Do you understand where you are?

[00:00:47]>> When you come over here and you first hear that, you won't know what the hell that man is saying.
