So not to turn this into the accidental goose podcast, but when we were at the show together,

0:07.0

I had either self-elected or maybe one of you or Tyler had sent me off to get waters,

0:11.4

if I remember correctly.

0:12.5

I think I self-elected to do that.

0:13.7

And I got stopped on the way by a couple of former coworkers.

0:17.9

And I was chichating with them.

0:20.7

And then one of them I knew some, and he's a nice guy, but I didn't know terribly well. And the other one I knew better. And, uh, we, you know, hadn't seen each other in years and years and chitch had a little bit then and then made arrangements to meet up for lunch today. And we met up for lunch and catching up about, you know, what he's been up to,

1:14.6

First of all, we're actually remembering for once.

1:17.3

And part of the reason I think we're remembering to talk about the new members special

1:21.9

is because John had the foresight to put it in our internal show notes with a bright yellow background and a

1:30.8

really, really pink foreground, new member special because every other time, the three of us

1:36.7

just plow right by and completely forget to bring it up. So we have a new member special.

1:42.2

I'm happy to introduce it, but I think Marco it might make the most sense for you to do so.

1:46.1

Yeah.

1:46.4

So as listeners might remember, I weirdly bought a restaurant.
