00:00:00

00:00:02
it was like was that I was just an
00:00:04
ordinary bloke
00:00:05
in the jail
00:00:07
and no different from anyone else, but I
00:00:10
was studying and they
00:00:12
the inmates [clears throat] liked it.
00:00:13
They well, you know, respected it. They
00:00:16
they used to when I was studying at
00:00:18

00:00:20
they'd they'd keep turned down their
00:00:22
radios. They, you know, oh
00:00:25

00:00:27
smoke-o time. Knock on just on my door.

00:00:38

00:00:40
radios down and all that, you know, so
00:00:42

00:00:53
