Let me see. So we're recording. I think smart people get bored. I mean, that isn't

that what it is, is he? I think smart people do get bored. I think most people get bored,

but smart people get bored in a particular way because they use their smart neuroticism

to escape from the present moment in any way they can. It's kind of like, it's kind of

like we can't be happy. I'm somehow including myself in the smart people club. I think we've

effectively started the podcast, don't you? Okay, let's start. It's a rolling start.

It's a rolling start. I think that because guys like, hey, welcome to the show. We're at

Studio Z today at the 799. That's what it is. I don't know. 31-ish. I don't know. And

you know, VP was kind enough to drive down on all the traffic. It's a lot of traffic.

I have nothing but regret so far. I just 100% like you've, you know, it's nothing but

regrets. It's been just sadness. And so we come here, and you blew my ears out. And

we both became deaf because they were testing the fire alarms in my building here. And so

it was like, bad, bad, bad for the last hour and 30 minutes. We wanted to start. We had

so much energy and excitement. It sucked it out. And then we were like, you know, so why

is it that people with, you know, high achievement set us tend to get so bored. We were just

kind of mulling this over. I think you have to have like, I don't know, for me, it's always

like, you get bored with some projects. You have to have new projects. Variety is important.

Yep. It's different things. Yeah, it's funny. I was talking, I just interviewed a guy,

Alex Ashmyanski. He's a real smart guy. Like was it graduated college at 18 Russian or

Ukrainian guy and was such a make that mistake. You can never do that. Never make that mistake.

Never do that. And he, he, he got a PhD in mathematics, all this crazy stuff. You've got

COVID again. I can't get it. No, I don't. I just have a little bit of a lingering. Yeah.
