GIRDUSKY: “Yes. Well, I'm hope your beeper doesn't go off. The thing is is that --”
HASAN: “Did you just say I should die?”
ALLISON: “Oh, wow. You should not --”
GIRDUSKY: “No, I said --”
HASAN: “Did you just say I should be killed?”
GIRDUSKY: “No.” [crosstalk]
HASAN: “You just said I should get killed on live TV.”
