Welcome to the Vortex Nation podcast, brought to you by lovers of hunting, shooting, public lands, the Second Amendment, and good food.

What is up, everybody? Mark on the mic, across from me. We are joined by my very good friend, Mr. Dan Johnson. Dan, this is kind of, I'm just going to say it. This is like a tradition now. It is. Three times is a tradition, right? I mean, I think even two you're getting there, but three, like, we're established something. You're in. Yep.

And that's a good thing because I look forward to this all year long.

We get to visit, hang out like we're going to do today. We go out for a nice dinner.

Yep.

I probably haven't had a nice dinner like that since the last time we had a nice dinner.

So it was a lovely date with yourself and some of the other folks here at Vortex.

And I might still be processing the steak from last night because we're podcasting, you know, pretty early this morning.

But yeah, just an awesome time.

Man, I tell you what, I really enjoy coming up here for multiple reasons.

Like, it's good to catch up with all of you

every time i step into the vortex facility and the new edge facility i'm blown away i like i go i wish i

i had this i wish i i wish i could work i wish i could be more involved with the vortex and live

closer you know even though i'm only two hours away right i wish i could be more involved with a Vortex and live closer, you know, even though I'm only two hours away, right?

I wish I could come here daily. It's an awesome place, awesome people, and I haven't met, honestly, this is God's honest truth.

I haven't met a unlikable person at Vortex since however long I've been working with you guys.

So it's always fun, dude.

I love coming here.

We enjoy it too.

And that's a very, very kind words and probably about as good a compliment as a company can receive.

Right.

Man, those are actually pretty nice folks over there.
