And we're live. Good to have everybody here today. We got a couple of interesting headlines to get to. This is a Trish Riegan show. I am Trish. And it seems that Comcast is really, really itching to get this deal done. You know, the one where they get to get rid of Rachel Maddow. They just reported earnings yesterday. And that was sort of the highlight. I mean, other than the fact that,

0:21.2

you know, they're still struggling on the streaming side. I think they only have 41 million

0:25.5

subscribers at that peacock network. It just like hasn't budged at all. I think they're charging a

1:18.1

draw there on peacock.

1:20.0

And so that was a big deal.

1:21.4

That was their big sort of significant feather in their cap, if you would.

1:26.0

But here's what's fascinating to me.

1:27.7

They talked about a record breaking up front for NBC Universal, NBC Universal.

1:32.2
