58:11That's good. Ah, this hurts. Now I have this little thing that goes, ah, this hurts. We were in black and white and we liked it. It was all black and white. We loved it. Yeah, absolutely. We loved having no chroma. All right. I'll go with my next. This one here that I just watched on Netflix last night. It popped up in my feed, and I normally wouldn't jump in and recommend something political,
58:34but there is, as Sky Gleason, our friend from Office Hours, would say, there's a lot of really good journalistic things to learn from this reporter, Seymour Hirsch. Courtney, have you heard of him? Oh, yeah. Yeah, he's written a few articles at Costas. Yeah. And yeah, he wrote a lot of stuff for the Times and even, yeah, you just have to watch it.
58:59But it's fascinating to hear somebody speak in this manner. He was really the go-to guy for any important story that somebody wanted to break that was highly classified. He became people from the CIA or FBI, these folks that wanted to let the public know about something that should be known about so that there was some Vietnam stuff. It's fascinating. I highly recommend watching it.
