There we go.
00:01:04:00 –> 00:01:14:24
Kind of exciting. Come on,
00:01:18:21 –> 00:01:21:02
We are not telemarketers. Answer.
00:01:24:14 –> 00:01:26:08
Get out of the garden, answer the phone.
00:01:27:04 –> 00:01:28:28
Hudy, you’ve reached Dick. Oh,
00:01:29:18 –> 00:01:36:14
At the tone, please record your message. Tweet. When you have finished recording, say something. You may hang up or press one for more options.
00:01:38:13 –> 00:01:47:15
Dick. Hey, Jason Carter here and the guys here at Epic Outdoors. Just wanna visit with you for a minute. Give us a call when you can. Thanks man. Talk to you later. Bye. I don’t know what to
00:01:48:04 –> 00:01:49:11
Shoot. That sucks.
00:01:55:00 –> 00:01:56:09
Huddy, you’ve reached Dick.
00:01:56:29 –> 00:01:59:15
The price is right. Might be on right now. That’s what we’re
00:01:59:19 –> 00:02:06:09
Well, we’ve been calling Dick and he’s not answering and we left him a voicemail and we sent him a text and here we are.
00:02:07:20 –> 00:02:09:20
Do know he got the message and he is got an iPhone.
00:02:10:04 –> 00:02:15:02
Yeah, it went blue. Yeah. And it’s been delivered, so,
00:02:15:09 –> 00:02:24:27
But it could be sitting in the desert somewhere with a little bit of battery left. It fell out of his pocket somewhere. But it has service. That’s all it’s telling us. It
00:02:24:27 –> 00:02:26:11
Could be putting up a truck camera in Nevada
00:02:28:14 –> 00:02:32:02
Here. It could be pulling him down. Could be cool down. That’s a
00:02:32:02 –> 00:02:36:06
Good point too. That’s a good point. Better be down by August 1st.
00:02:41:29 –> 00:02:43:18
Kind of a suspenseful moment here.
00:02:48:11 –> 00:02:51:18
Your call has been forwarded to an automatic voice mess. Swinging a
00:02:51:18 –> 00:02:51:23
Mess.
00:02:52:06 –> 00:02:53:28
Here we go. Let’s give him a holler.
00:02:54:14 –> 00:02:55:00
There we go.
00:02:56:21 –> 00:03:00:04
The number you dialed is not a working number. Please check the number.
00:03:00:25 –> 00:03:03:10
You have to splice that one number. Didn’t go through
00:03:05:23 –> 00:03:08:04
This one. This one was a dud, right?
00:03:11:09 –> 00:03:16:20
Well, maybe he’s on the prices right, right now and he’s in the showcase Showdown.
00:03:18:00 –> 00:03:26:26
Sounded like we were gonna get the prices right there for a minute. Come on,
