Well, this is current yield Grants' interest rate observer of the air, and I am Jim Grant.

I guess I should say, as always, because invariably I am.

And with me today, as per usual, Evan Lorenz, the great deputy editor of Grants, and Henry French is the sound

engineer, and chortling in the background is Alex J. Pollock. Alex J. Pollock is, I guess,

the most interesting man in the world has already raised his hand, right? I see that on television.

He's something about Bitcoin. But Alex J. Pollack, in that case, is the second most interesting man in the world.

And I will tell you why in just one moment.

In the meantime, Evan, what do you think about things?

I mean, I think that AI is a thing.

Is it not?

Oh, it's definitely a thing.

Just like the Segway is a thing, too.

It can get you around to places.

Yeah. Well, here it is. You know, it's Valentine's Day, as we speak. It's Valentine's Day and

Ash Wednesday, which is certainly a mixed message. It's a, you know, penitence and a little

sappy romance the same day. Are you, I'm going to parse that. Actually, that combination is sort of a good summation of human life.

That's Alex J. Polly.

What did I tell you about being the most interesting guy?

Okay, so, but in our presence, before we get down to business, is Henry French, who

was just recently married, and now who is today is living his first day, Valentine's Day, as a married man.

Now, Alex, before you were properly introduced, do you have any advice for young Henry who is, who I already told not to mess it up, but what do you think?

You've got nine grandchildren.
