The one vacation I'd taken with my family in a year and I was, I was poised to ruin it and ruin it.

I'm just curious for, so first of all, I've taken your advice and Tim Ferriss Jurgenson started this podcast. You were actually the first person I sat down with, but I had so little idea what I was doing that we blocked out the windows. We had an uncomfortable table in front of the face. The functionary was completely off. We had an Adams family podcast. Exactly. so we're, we're trying things, I'm learning a little bit.
