we start today's story, Nick and Patsy are watching a big factory fire in
3:39
the downtown district. Suddenly Nick calls to the battalion team cheep as a woman
3:46
trapped up there on the top floor. You're crazy, Carter. The boys
3:51
reported all clear several minutes ago. I don't care what they reported. That's
3:53
a girl up there. I gotta try to scream. I'm going up for
3:57
dinner. You're a fool to go in there. You'll go. Be sure
4:00
to get that gus mask of yours on tight or you won't come out again.
4:04
These button factory players are full of poison gas from the setting. Lloyd
4:09
of Baruxalen makes no difference. I gotta find out about that girl. Cheek
4:13
Solong, Hey, Bill, Yeah, get one of those two inches nozzles
4:16
over here. Rushing up to the ladder up to the top floor, cover
4:20
Carter when he's inside there. He's a fool, but he's a brave man,
4:32
all right, can you say him yet? Check? No, he's
4:36
been going long enough to the under that twice already. But there he is.
4:42
Cheep. Check over there. Yeah, he's got somebody with him.
4:46
Ambulats over here, get the first day, get the hurry next, get
4:50
at you. All right, yeah, let me get your guess y.
4:57
Yeah, I'm okay, think the ambulance is coming. It's no use,
5:02
cheap. She died in my arms on the way down, A poor kid
5:06
as cheap. It's not only first degree harson, it's first to be murdered
5:10
as well. Yes, Patsy, just as sure as I'm standing here.
5:13
What's going on here? Who's that you got there? I don't know.
5:15
Riley just found her on the top floor of the building, h hight up
5:18
and burning the death. You mean somebody deliberately left you there to burn to
5:23
death? I do found a gag that shot up in the closet, and
5:26
Nick, why didn't somebody here before she got burned? Till? Okay,
5:29
Patsy, see these ugly red burns on each side of the dead girl's mouth.
5:33
She was gag, That's why she didn't cry out sooner. She couldn't,
5:36
not until the gag burned away. Nick, you must have cob.
5:41
Somebody hurt. Yes, somebody's hurt. Who are you high? Moscar roarin?
5:45
This this factory was mine, boy, so it was yours? What?
5:47
Yes? Did you ever see this girl here before? Huh? Let
5:49
me see? Oh? Yes, that's Jenny, Jenny Baker. And who
5:54
is Jenny Baker? Our a bookkeeper? What what happened to her? The
5:57
same thing has happened to your building, mister Warden learned to death right.
6:00
But I don't understand what was she doing here at this time of night.
6:03
We weren't working over time or taking inventory or anything. Why was she here?
6:09
It's only one of the things you don't know, mister Warren, to
6:11
warn hurt, you happen to know there was a fire here. I didn't
6:14
know. And what are you doing here? I've been at the movies on
6:16
my way home. I stopped to pick up a bundle I left in my
6:18
office this afternoon. And where's your home up in Washington Heights? And where
6:21
did you go to the movies tonight? In Union Square? So you come
6:26
all the way from your home in Washington heights to go to see a movie
6:29
in Union Square. Yes, but I and on the way home, yes,
6:31
temp at your office, which is a couple of miles out of your
6:33
way to pick up a bundle and a fine Smarry. Look if I left
6:38
the bundle in my office, where else could I go to pick it up?
6:40
Did you start this fire here tonight? Why should I start a fire
6:43
my own time? I didn't? Sorry? Yes, no? Did you
6:45
start this fire? And why? No? I did? Why shootouts?
6:47
I am raised any other firebug hairs to make money out of the insurance company.
6:50
But I've been making money this year. No, business isn't so good
6:55
this year. Yeah, but now that you can get your insurance money,
6:58
everything's okay. I said, Oh, look, why should you accuse me
7:00
of things like that? Listen, Warren? A factory has been burned down
7:04
and a girl has been killed, and someone is responsible and we're going to
7:08
find out who. Hi, Nick, Sorry, I'm late rally. I
7:23
hope to get him before you started questioning Warren, but I couldn't make it.
7:26
What have you found out? I mean, it's been like pulling teeth,
7:28
Nick, But he's told us that the dead girl Jenny Baker who is
7:30
office manager and bookkeeper for his firm for the past seven years, knew more
7:33
about customers and accounts than he did, invaluably said only thing wrong with her
7:39
was that she's been going out recently with his partner, Alfred Hoffman. So
7:42
what if she did go up with this Herman. It's a clok and no
7:46
easy now, mister Warren, none of that you seeing. Nick. Warren
7:49
and Herman just didn't get along so good, couldn't agree on how the business
7:54
was to be run. That's the car. A couple of months ago a
7:56
lot of funny business started. Some shipments were made that hadn't been ordered.
8:00
Then money was borrowed on the shipments, other things too. They had arguments
8:03
to lots of Nick. But a week ago they finally had a fish fight.
8:07
Yeah, and I looked him too, the crook. Then we called
8:09
the partnership off which one of you is getting out of the partners I'm buying
8:13
him out well, as soon as I get the money to get with the
8:16
money you're hoping to collect from the insurance company. Your means a serious accusation,
8:20
Lieutenant Riley, very serious. My client's reputation would be ruined if these
8:24
charges of yours were made public stuff sounding us that way, Hamilton. You're
8:28
not in cart and your client's not in jail yet. Strikes me, Hamilton,
8:31
that if you were to tell your client with the jammi's and then advise
8:35
him to tell us what we want to know, he'd be a lot better
8:37
off. That fire was incendiary, no mistake about that, and his book
8:39
keeper died in it. His alibi ain't even good for a laugh, sir
8:43
ridiculous mister Warren's spotless reputation over a long period of get yours peach for a
8:48
minute, Hamilton, see if it can help your client. Explain a couple
8:52
of points here here, liltenant, I don't need any instruction from you as
8:54
to my duties as a lawyer, though perhaps I could instruct you and your
8:58
duties public offish way, What do you mean by that crack? It's plain
9:03
enough who set the factory on fire? If it was set boyd? Who
9:05
do you think did it? Alfred Herman? He threatened to do it a
9:09
week ago and threatened to kill my client too if he got the chance.
9:13
You say he threatened that a week ago. Yeah, mister Hamilton's telling the
9:16
truth. Mister Carter, Herman said, I'd live only just long enough to
9:18
be sorry I'd kicked him out of the firm, which I didn't do.
9:22
Really, we well, we agreed I should buy him out. Would you
9:26
say you haven't paid him yet? No? I haven't had the money yet.
9:30
Will you get enough out of this insurance company? If you get anything
9:33
at all to pay off all your creditors, including Herman, all the creditors,
9:37
maybe, but nothing left for Herman? Then it hardly seems logical that
9:41
he'd spoil his chances of getting money from you by putting you out of business.
9:43
Yeah, why would you want to do that? Mister Wyse guy?
9:46
Have you ever heard of revenge? Many men will pay more for revenge than
9:52
for anything else, Riley, I think I'll have a talk with us Alfred
9:54
Herman. Where does he live? Worn thirteen thirty five West n Boulevard.
9:58
What does he look like? Slender? Blonde, young, looking, clean
10:01
shaven? You know, ladies? Man? All right, I'll find him,
10:05
see you later, Rally Apartment three D. You said, didn't you?
10:18
Yes? This is it? What do you want to get out of
10:22
Herman? First? I want to see if he has an alibi ring?
10:26
Again, Betsy, Okay, I guess he's not in Oh grave, your
10:35
hum? What is it? I smelled gas and it's leaking around the door
10:41
to herman's apartment. Do you think there's something wrong? I'm going to find
10:45
out. What's my big? Oh? Here it is? This is easy?
10:50
Oh good, that's there is guess in here? Stay outside, Petsy.
10:56
Well, I take a look in the kitchen, all right, Nick,
10:58
but be careful. I'll be all right as it's coming out of the
11:01
kitchen here. All right, I have to got the window open the first.
11:07
I'll let some fresh air in here. Now trying to kill yourself?
11:11
Are you well? Not this time? My friend? Come on over to
11:15
the window there, and I got you just in time, didn't I?
11:20
Well, you will be all right as patsy, But don't come in till
11:24
the gas plays out. Some looks like him from the description I got.
11:31
He's coming around now. Oh all right, breathe deep. Get some fresh
11:37
air into your lungs and place of all that gas. Oh why didn't you
11:39
let me finish it? Stop being sorry for yourself? Breathe deep? Why
11:46
should I want to live? Money? Stolen business taken away? Oh?
11:52
My girls? Did you know how she died? What agon is? She
11:56
went through sorrow and he took her away? How'd you happen to be there?
12:03
I went to the plant to meet her. She asked me to what
12:07
was she doing this? Relate checking over the books to find out how much
12:11
old Oscar Warren had stolen from me these past months. That's all. She
12:16
was staying with the old crook for soon as she got the goods on him,
12:20
she was gonna leave and we were going to get married. You like
12:24
to prove that to a jury. I don't care what happens now. Jenny's
12:30
dead, cruel, but would you like to be convicted of her murder?
12:35
Murder? You mean the fire was set? It was? I mean nothing
12:41
to help you up? Yes, it was set by someone who knew enough
12:43
about the button business to gather up all the shavings of cell, your lord
12:46
and put them where they'd start burning the best. When was it set?
12:50
Around nine thirty to ten o'clock, as near as we can figure, you
12:54
have an alibi for that time. Yes, I I spent the whole evening
12:58
with Dottie Baker, Jenny's sister, where at their apartment on Royal Avenue.
13:03
You fond of Dotty. Yes I am. Maybe you'd rather marry Dottie than
13:07
her sister. Why you if you weren't a cop, i'd tell you.
13:09
For I am not a cop. I'm a private detective. This gil got
13:13
no right to say that Jenny's the only girl in the world for me.
13:16
You're sure? Am I sure? Here? Look at this? What is
13:22
it? Here in my hand? Optionally eyes? Here's something else for you.
13:26
Here's one for you. So Nick fell for the oldest trick in the
13:41
world of crooks. Red Pepper hurriedly snatched from the kitchen table and thrown in
13:43
his eyes when he was off God then slugged and knocked out, and Patsy
13:48
knocked unconscious in the apartment hall as Alfred Hermann makes his get away to parts
13:52
unknown. Where does all this leave Nick? We'll see in just a moment.
13:58
If your youngsters have ever tracked in slush, mud or snow when you're
14:01
just finished cleaning the floor, you know how exasperating it is, But it
14:05
can be a lot less trouble when your floors are protected by linax self polishing
14:09
wax. For Linux, self polishing wax resists water so that it's removed in
14:15
a Jiffy. Linax self polishing wax resists dirt too, keeping it on the
14:20
surface so that it's easily cleaned away. And although Linux self polishing wax is
14:24
simply wiped on without tiresome rubbing or polishing, it resists where as well.
14:31
What's more, when warn spots appear, it may be renewed at any time
14:35
without re waxing the whole floor. Yes, Linax self polishing wax is a
14:39
splendid finish for any floor wood, tile or linoleum, giving a beautiful sat
14:45
in the appearance. And it's the non skid finish. The underwriter's laboratories have
14:50
proved that fact. Get Linax, l I, n dash X, Linax
14:56
self polishing wax now you will find all three great Life Nax Home Bright News
15:01
and kem Tone the Miracle wall finish at hardware, paint and apartment stores everywhere.
15:15
And now back to our story. We left both Nick and Patsy unconscious
15:20
in the apartment of Alfred Hermann, partner in the button factory in which Jenny
15:24
Baker was burned to death. Herman has vanished as we picked them up.
15:28
They're on their way downtown in Nick's car. It's early evening. Feeling better
15:33
now, Patsy, Yes, thanks Nick. That cup of coffee made a
15:35
new woman out of me. I feel more normal myself than I did a
15:39
while back. What a sap that herman made out of me? You ain't
15:41
kidding? Where do you suppose he is now? Somewhere miles away from here?
15:46
No doubt you're a trip to was placed and accomplished much did no except
15:50
for saving his life. It accomplish steps looking nothing, that's right. I
15:54
went through everything in the apartment, found nothing that interested me in the least,
15:58
not a clue and a carload the results of the trip. One bump
16:00
on the head for you where he hits you with the iron skillet. One
16:03
saw a jaw for me where he punched me. Oh well, I hope
16:07
I have better luck where I'm going now? Or is that? I want
16:11
to have another look at the burn factory, now that the fires died down
16:14
enough so I can get in the place. Oh is it safe? Framework
16:17
of the building is still standing, Only the contents were burnt, not all
16:19
of them. There's a hot fire and a short one. That's it.
16:23
Just ahead there isn't it? Yes, now, Patsy, I'm going in
16:27
but I want you to wait in the car. Oh button, I have
16:30
a hunt. Something's wrong in there. I want you out here so I
16:33
can have a friend on the outside. I'll wait here for an hour if
16:36
I don't come out by then, Carl Riley, you mean you think there's
16:38
still someone in there. I don't know what I think, Patsy. I'm
16:41
just playing a hunts coming down here at all, and my hunt says,
16:44
be careful. You stay here and watch all right, Nick, do take
16:48
care of yourself. Don't worry, Patsy. I like me well enough to
16:49
do that very vigorously. Be seeing you. Hum. Floors up here are
17:03
still warm where we started this bark At a very careful job. Contents of
17:10
the stock room burned completely. The office nut hit so hard except for the
17:15
office files. Hum. Strange. The safe door should be standing open that
17:22
way. This must have been oscar warm desk. Hmm. I hardly touched
17:30
this corner. That's uh. Bells off. The telephone box hmm. Was
17:40
taken office wouldn't ring? Ah, I see, well, I guess I'll
17:47
just take this bell box with me, take out these two screws, and
17:52
I there are poor shot ties. Took a couple of shots. That mean
18:02
ran? Was this a dark in here? I might stand up better chance
18:04
of seeing which, Wait, there's that a shadow or anybody there? Get
18:07
your hands up and keep him up and keep coming toward me. I got
18:12
a flashlight. Yeah, turn it on yourself. I want to get to
18:17
go. Look at you right here? Why are you? You're Dotty Baker,
18:22
aren't you? Yes, I'm Dotty Baker. It look just like your
18:26
sister. You try to kill me just now. I didn't try to kill
18:29
anybody ever. Gun No, I wouldn't even know how to fire one.
18:33
Did you hear the shooting? Yes, that's what scared me. So what
18:36
are you doing up here? I came to look for evidence that my sister
18:40
was murdered. And what makes you think Jenny was murdered? She was afraid
18:42
someone was going to kill her. She wouldn't tell me who, but she
18:45
knew someone had been jugging the stock room inventories and the shipping records. That's
18:49
why she was here last night trying to find out what was going on.
18:53
But she was afraid something would happen to her before she got the proof,
18:56
and it did. But I've got the proof. Look here, see these
19:00
metal bands. Yes, they are on. The cartons of merchandise were burned,
19:04
and they proved that there were only a few of them in the stock
19:07
room and the fire started the oldest trick in the business. Remove most of
19:11
your stock, then have a fire and claim it burned up all your stock.
19:15
But where are the cartons of stuff that they took out of here?
19:18
If you could only find them, they'd prove who did it, wouldn't they.
19:21
They certainly would, Daddy, And I think I know where to find
19:23
them. How could you know that the bell box for the telephone on mister
19:27
Warren's desk told me come on where. We'll take you home first. And
19:32
I'm going hunting for those missing cases because the man who juggled the books and
19:34
removed the cases was the man who killed your sister and set the fire.
19:37
Oh, I hope you're right, mister Carter, Nick Carter, the detective,
19:41
that's right. Oh, No, I know you'll find the murderer.
19:44
Well, I hope you're right. But by the way, you seen Alfred
19:48
Hermann lately? Oh? Yes, he spent last evening at our apartment waiting
19:52
for Jane to get through at the factory. Why ooh, curiosity, Daddy,
19:56
just curiosity, one of the detectives most important weapons. All right,
20:00
come on, let's get you home. Now. Listen carefully, Betsy,
20:15
judging from the light on the second floor there, Although mister Oscar Warren should
20:18
be in bed, he's steal up, which makes it more dangerous for you.
20:21
Yes, but I'm going to have a look in his basement just the
20:23
same. I'm sure i'll find the missing cartons there, and if I do,
20:26
the case is over. So I'm gonna let myself in when you keep
20:30
a look out here. I can't tell you what to look for, so
20:33
we just keep your eyes open. I'll listen, Betsy. We're up against
20:36
something very dangerous in this case, so take care of yourself while I'm gone.
20:49
I thought so. Must be nearly a hundred cases piled up against the
20:53
back wall of this basement, which will send mister Oscar Warren. Get your
20:59
hands up, turn around and face the wall. It'll be hard to make
21:02
my death look like a lex and them right here in your own house,
21:04
mister Warren, they'll get you if you try it. Why it's mister Carter,
21:08
I thought you were a burglar. What are you doing here in my
21:11
house without permission. Looking over your stock of buttons. You have a permit
21:15
to store this inflammable stuff here. Look, mister Carter, I told you
21:18
Hermann was pulling some funny business. These boxes are each the post that contain
21:22
two three hundred dollars worth buttons. Look. I cut one of these cases
21:26
open. You see they're full of junk rubbish. Herman steals the buttons,
21:33
fills the boxes with this stuff. Then he shifts them and we gotta make
21:36
good twenty five thousand we lost already. Why didn't you have Hm arrested.
21:40
I couldn't catch him doing it. It's no goal, mister Warren, Alfred
21:42
Herman has an air tight alibi, have you. I was at the movies,
21:47
all right, mister Warren. You fire this fire all over the place.
21:52
Yes, I must have been a firebar out this way. The outside
21:55
doors un locked where I came in this way. I can't see this hare.
21:59
I'll get you out, cloud. I thought I was going with mister
22:11
Carr. Haven't been you would have been you? I think so lost the
22:15
little hair, but that's all kills someone in there. One. I WoT
22:21
you said the house was empick purse. I can't understand see who it is
22:26
over in a few minutes longing, I'll it, I got you. I
22:38
admit you saved my life with the carter. Very grieful what's the idea of
22:42
insisting that I go down to police headquarters with you because that's where you belong,
22:47
Ambleton. I know now that you're the one who bound and gagged Jenny
22:49
Baker and then set fire to the factory. Crazy. That's absurd you It
22:56
could be, of course, yes, it's you, not hurr it.
23:00
You had a key you could get at the stock in the books, and
23:04
I owe you money too. So it was you my lawyer. He's no
23:08
lawyer, mister Warren. I looked him up. It was the spard some
23:11
years ago. If it was you, Dan Hamilton who cut me to bring
23:15
these cases of scrap Sightiloyd to my house, you said it would be evidence
23:18
against hermit. This is ridiculous. Whyet at the time the police say the
23:22
fire started, I was at headquarters reporting Herman's threads against mister Warren. I'll
23:26
bet you set off that firebomb in my basement to kill mister Carner and me.
23:30
I'm quite sure he did, but he didn't realize how fast the fire
23:33
would spread and he almost got caught in it himself going through mister Warren's papers.
23:37
Weren't you Helton? This is all too fantastic, Carter. But if
23:41
you insist on my going along with you, you you won't mind if I
23:45
called my office first? Will know it would be at your office at three
23:48
point thirty in the morning. Well, the cleaning woman, I could ask
23:49
her to tell my secretary where you're taking me. So you want to call
23:52
your office, do you? I'll tell you what. Let's go to your
23:56
office instead. Oh no, no, no that will be necessary. You
24:00
have called later. No, I think we'll go there now, Betsy.
24:04
Drive to mister Hamilton's office and Broad Avenue and hurry all right. Hamilton opened
24:19
the door, and no tricks. Very well, Nick, look Alfred herman,
24:29
yes, herman, and very dead. Well it hole right through the
24:36
heart and a gun in his hand. Suicide, why in my office?
24:40
No, Hamilton, not suicide but murder, murder number two for you.
24:45
But you can see that no right handed man could shoot himself so straight in
24:48
the heart. And I know Mark's a powder with his hand, as I
24:51
would be if he'd part a gun. You must have known more about you
24:53
than I thought he did for you to kill him. All right, Cardon,
24:56
let's go down a headquarters. We're wasting time here. I'm not so
24:59
fas Hamilton. You're too anxious. I want to look at your telephone bell
25:03
box. Don't know, Hamilton? Now shoot? If I do, what
25:07
about the bellbox? Will you Bessy? And you too an Hey? What's
25:14
that arrangement? Car? He takes the bell off, takes a piece of
25:17
memory paper on the clapper of the bell, and he fastens the blue tip
25:21
match, where it'll be lighted by the emery paper on the clapper as it
25:22
vibrates against the tip of the match. When the bell rings, the match
25:26
sets fire to this oil soaked rag, which leads to this wastebasket full of
25:30
paper and excelsior. So when he phones his office, he sets fire to
25:33
it. The body is burned up, together with all the papers and files.
25:37
It might incriminate him. Is that how he said to the tact It
25:40
is, Patsy, I have in my car the bellbox from Morn's desk at
25:42
the factory for proof. Hamilton probably called the factory from the police station,
25:47
which would give him an ironclad alibi mister Carter, so far you haven't found
25:49
one bit of proof to connect me with this thing in any way. Now,
25:53
come on, let's get out of here. Why the rush, Hamilton,
25:56
Have I missed something? Well, then let's take a good look around
26:00
behind the desk under So that's shit. Dotty Baker deck gagged then tied up
26:07
so she can't move, just the way he left Jenny in the factory.
26:11
All right, Donny, just a minute he did that, Hamilton. I
26:14
saw him kill Alfie. I came in just as he shot him, so
26:18
he tied me up and left me here. He was going to burn the
26:22
whole building of when he could get worried heaven alibi, he said, So,
26:23
I guess that doesn't Halilton, I should have killed you out right instead
26:26
of waiting you. You and your sister, both of you got in my
26:30
way. Hamilton. It won't take you as long to die in the electric
26:33
chair as it took Jenny Baker to die in that flaming factory you left her
26:36
in. But you'll be just as dead in the end, which is as
26:38
it should be. All right, come on, let's get down and turn
26:42
you over to Riley. I've had all I can stand of a skunk like
26:45
you. In just a moment, Nick and Patsy will bring you a preview
26:59
of next week's exciting case. But now a tip on relaxing. Everybody enjoys

Remember to ask for them by name Linax, It's spelled l n h
28:22
X Linux. Ask for it now. Now let's hear from Nick caught her
28:29
himself. Well, Nick, what do you think next week's story will be
28:34
exciting? I know it'll be exciting. Cal It's a simple little story to
28:38
start with, but it gets into a mad tangle of murder before we're through
28:42
with it. Usually it's Nick who gets himself in danger of his life.
28:45
This time it was you, truly who got in the way of the killer
28:48
and nearly added to the total score. An old lady, rich and eccentric
28:52
was dying without leaving a will, and there were six claimants for the three
28:56
million she was leaving, some of them extremely money hungry, extremely ruthless too.
29:00
What do you call it? Nick? Death by ricochet or the Mystery
29:03
of the abandoned gravel pit. For full details of an exciting few hours,
29:07
join us next week. So Long, So Long, everybody, and so
29:11
long to both of you. See you next week at the same time.
29:33
Next week, at the same time, listen to another curious experience of Nick
29:36
Catter Master Detective entitled Death by Ricochet or Nick Carter and the Mystery of the
29:44
Abandoned Gravel Pitch. Nick Carter Master Detective is featured in Street and Smith magazines.

30:22
great producer of ACME Fine Quality Paints. This is Ken Powell speaking for the
30:29
thousands of Linux dealers all over America and saying, so long until next week.
30:36
This is mutual welcome back. This is the type of Nick Carter episode
30:45
I really enjoy. I enjoy it when Carter is just very determining, a
30:52
little bit on the extreme side as he works through the case, you know,
30:57
going into burning Bill that's the type of thing I'm talking about when we're
31:03
talking about Nick Carter. The attorney's methods or disbarred attorneys were kind of limited,
31:12
but still I thought this was a good mystery and kept you guessing pretty
31:17
well with some nice twists towards the end. All right, Well on to
31:21
some listener comments and feedback back, and Monty says, thank you so much
31:29
for the great detectives. These stories are mostly very good, with my favorite
31:33
being Bob Bailey's Johnny Dawler so far. Plus you're added commentary. I don't
31:37
always agree with your comments, but always find them interesting and informative. Well,
31:41
thanks so much, Monty, and I definitely think that the and I'm
31:48
glad that people listening to the show doesn't depend on them agreeing with me all
31:53
the time. And it's it's interesting to hear sometimes a different take or perspective.
31:59
So appreciate your comments, Monty. And Elizabeth says, keep up the
32:02
great work. I really enjoy your podcast. And then a comment that came
32:07
in from Mark while I was recording my podcast. Actually actually, Mark says,
32:14
traveling all over Atlanta has been a joy since I discovered your podcast.
32:17
I load up my phone, and off I go. What a great way
32:22
to overlook traffic. Well, I'm glad to help Mark, and definitely having
32:28
something to listen to can really relieve a lot of a lot of boredom,
32:36
so I'm glad to provide that. Well, we will see you back here
32:39
tomorrow for yours truly, Johnny Dollar, and then join us back here next
