You don't want to make a mistake, though. You want to do it right, and especially with both of them eagle-eyeing what you're doing, you're going to get a good experience. Speaking of experiences, Dylan had his experience with Barton Crystal. How you doing, Dylan? I'm doing great. How you guys doing? Good, man. Thanks for the time. So tell us a little bit about what you did with the Bart Mert team. Also, Dylan moved into my old stopping grounds in Deltona. Right, Dylan? Yeah. I actually got most of my information about Deltona from the old king of Deltona. Hey. You were working with the king? My God. I was like, what about that information? Wanted to make you move there? Well, you see. I didn't say it was an accurate information. I just got most of it from you back in the day. I'm just joking. Deltoa is fine. It's just a suburb of Florida. It is. And my house in Deltoeer was awesome. Anyway, so Dylan, how was your experience with Barton Crystal? Man, it was amazing. We went into it not knowing anything.
