All right. I have my friend Nick Bear on the podcast today. Can you believe it, Courtney?

We got Nick Bear in the studio. Let's make a big deal out of it. Let's make a big deal out.

I'm pumped. I'm thankful. I'm so thankful that you hear, man. This is so cool because I've been on your show twice now, I think.

And the conversations that I have had the opportunity to share in during

our time together on the Nick Bear podcast have indeed been my favorite conversations that I've

gotten to be a part of on podcasts. So when we get together, I always have fun.

We've known each other for a long time and for it to come full circle and for you to give

me the opportunity to now learn from you and be sitting in the seat behind the questions.

I'm just super thankful, brother.

Well, thank you. Yeah. I was thinking about this on, on the drive from the airport here

this morning. And I've come to realize my life, there's, there's certain things that I do

that empty my cup. And there are certain things that I do that empty my cup.

And there are certain things that I do that fill my cup.

And I oftentimes find myself doing out of necessity more things that empty my cup than fill my cup.

Conversations with you always fill my cup.

And I don't say that lightly because there's very few people who fill my cup and i don't say that lightly because there's there's very few people who fill my cup in the way that you do so i'm very appreciative of your mentorship your time

your wisdom and i respect you tremendously because of how bold you are in your beliefs.

You stand firm.

And I've looked up to that in you for a long time.

So I value our time together significantly.

Yeah.

So thank you.
