11:48 pm Jodi calls Travis and left a voice mail message; it took her 3 minutes to leave it
The 3 minute voice mail is consistent with someone listening to voice mail messages.
The 3 minute voice mail message could occur if someone left a message, listened to it, erased it, and repeated the process a few times.

Hey, what's going on? It's almost midnight. Anyway right about the time you're starting to Gear Up. I know Leslie called you and I already called her so you can call her back but it's not necessary. My phone died so I wasn't getting back to anybody. And what else? Oh I drove 100 miles in the wrong direction, over a hundred miles thank you very much. So yeah, remember New Mexico, it was a lot like that only you weren't here to prevent me to go in the triple digits so fun fun! I'll tell you all about that later. Also we were talking about your upcoming travels my way. I was looking at the May calendar, duh, so I'm all confused. But Heather and I are going to go see Othello on July 1st and we would love for you to accompany us. I don't know when team Freedom's event is though but you know it's on the list so we could do Shakespeare, Crater Lake, and the coast if you can make it. If not we'll just do Crater Lake and the coast. But let me know and I'll talk to you soon. Bye"
