Round 9 [Audio]

[helluvachin]

I uh, I hate to ask this but uh, does anyone have any coins that I can borrow? I want to see if this phone actually works.

[rocklikerunaway]

[She has coins, copper and silver and gold from two different currencies. But first things first.]

What's a phone?

[Audio]

[helluvachin]

[You never know how to answer a question like that until someone asks it.]

Uh, well, it's this device that let's you talk to people far away.

[Audio]

[rocklikerunaway]

People pay money for that?

[Seriously, just walk over and talk to them.]

[Audio]

[helluvachin]

Well, why wouldn't they?

[Audio]

[rocklikerunaway]

Because you can just walk over and talk to them.

[Audio]

[helluvachin]

Sometimes it's more convenient and faster to call them. Especially if they're miles away.

[Audio]

[rocklikerunaway]

So it's like a messenger bird. That you need coins for.

[Audio]

[helluvachin]

And it's about a hundred times faster than a bird.

[Audio]

[rocklikerunaway]

And it costs a hundred times more too.

[Audio]

[helluvachin]

Well, I guess so but it's only a coin. It's really not all that much for a single call.

[rocklikerunaway]

[Audio]

Especially if you're not the one paying for it.

[helluvachin]

Still goes on your phone bill.

[rocklikerunaway]

So if I give you a coin, I can bill you for it?

[This is suddenly a whole lot more interesting.]

[helluvachin]

You're making this a lot more complicated than it needs to be.

[rocklikerunaway]

You want the coin, or not?

[helluvachin]

I think I might be better off asking someone else.
