0:14.0	He didn't. And unfortunately, well, we don't want to. John was here in our midway. He just doesn't say anything, but he just didn't.
0:23.0	But now everyone's going to be like, everyone's going to be like, I only tune in because I want to listen to John. And now we just lost everything.
0:30.0	He's here intermittently just in and out. He doesn't say anything.
0:35.0	He's here in spirit. Okay. So everyone decides to now stay. Well, this week, as you guys might know, we have Trent Presler from Presler Woodshop.
0:45.0	Not to be confused with the guy from nine inch nails Trent Rezner.
0:50.0	Yes, you did think that's who we were into. I knew I was just messing around. I just don't know if I believe you.
0:58.0	No, I 100% knew. Like I feel like you're like, oh, he's kind of a craftsman. I heard he did some woodworking.

2:15.0	It's funny. I mean, it, it goes from business to mentors to father, son relationship to, um, sexuality.
2:26.0	It goes for, I mean, it's, it touches on everything, writing a book to, um, selling a vineyard.
2:34.0	Honestly, if you were to bullet point out this entire podcast, you'd be like, what the hell is going on right now?
2:41.0	But the one center is that no matter what at any cost, it always comes back to quality. Yeah.
