42:00 As the conversation continues, our guests discuss the controversy of the GIP receptor agonism, antagonism debate. These arguments are highlighted in a special debate series in the August issue of Diabetes, featuring a point article, “A Contemporary Rationale for Agonism of the GIP Receptor in the Treatment of Obesity,” available for free at ​​doi.org/10.2337/dbi24-0026, and a counterpoint article titled “GIP Receptor Antagonists in the Pharmacotherapy of Obesity: Physiologic, Genetic, and Clinical Rationale,” also available for free at doi.org/10.2337/dbi24-0027.
