All right, welcome everybody to Great Things and Great Tech Episode 1.

0:17.0

So this is the first episode of this podcast series that I introduced last week in the

0:23.4

seed episode. And, you know, in that episode, I talked about what this podcast was going to be

0:27.8

all about. It's going to be about highlighting companies doing great things with great tech.

0:32.5

And like I kind of alluded to in the first episode, it's not really a surprise as to, you know, who I'm
