29:35anaconda controversial yeah but but but should we give people sir mix-a-lot since

30:38really schmuck move to end on a nikki minaj eight bit song yeah what's the matter with you i mean
30:43here we are playing bands from the 80s and obvious songs from original artists that was a nikki
30:49minaj with a remix it was like a challenge question yeah i i i just thought that it was
30:53maybe a controversial ending why why didn't you stick with the 80s songs why get the yeah i i just
30:58wanted to change it how we're very disappointed guys i stutter when i'm nervous don't don't make me
31:06nervous we're very disappointed don't make me nervous because i told you i stutter when i
31:13but i'm nervous so listen i gotta go now goodbye it was the maiden voyage of eight bit hit all right
