Okay, I have Dr. Dennis Dent with me today. I am so excited to talk to you today. Can I call you Dr. Deden? It feels kind of like...

0:18.0

Just call me Dennis. All right, All right. I'll call you Dennis.

0:21.2

And okay, I just got to start off with I, I wrote you an email telling you why I was dying to

have you on my podcast. And for anyone who hasn't heard me to talk about this already, because I feel
