Hello, and welcome to Totalis Rankium. I am Jamie. And I'm Rob, and we are just popping onto the feed with some very exciting news, because what's happening, Jamie? I've bought two rats. Well, yes, you have got two rats, which is very exciting, but that's not the news we're coming on. I know you're excited, Jamie. It is very exciting. What are their names? Winifred and Sybil. Right, that's brilliant. That is fantastic. Right, but no, the other good news is, Jamie, and what's exciting is that we are keynote speakers in next year's intelligence speech online conference, which is very exciting. Yes, a long-time listeners will know that we have attended a couple of these before. They've always been lots of fun, but we're keeping on speakers this time, Jeremy.

We clearly did something right.

I know. What does that mean? We go first or last. So we're like the best historians? I think that must be what it means. I think it means we are the best historians. Yeah, the theme is companions and rivals. I can tell you that it will be pirate-themed this year,

but we are not going to reveal exactly what it is just yet. You don't know, do you? I do know, Jamie. I'm keeping the audience in suspense. Oh, okay. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't. I have one idea, but I don't know if it's going to work. Anyway, intelligence speech online is happening on February the 28th of 2026 and tickets are on sale right now at Intelligenspeachonline.com. And what I've heard is if you get your tickets now, you get a slightly lower price, you get like an early bird saving.

Yes, if you use the promo code Rankingum, because you heard it through us, you get a

discount off your tickets. Plus, lots of other people are involved, so you can use their discount

codes as well. Your ticket will give you access to all of the speeches that day and all the

presentations. You don't have to attend it live, so don't worry if you're going to miss it,

because you can catch up on all of it.

In fact, I will quote here, it is a veritable three-ring circus of content composed of four virtual rooms running 40-minute sessions simultaneously.

The regular sessions, a fascinating online

a lively Q&A with the audience. These Q&As, together with space and time for separate chats,

creates a unique experience in which the members of the community can engage directly with

creators that they follow. Wow. So, like we said, there's unique experience in which the members of the community can engage directly with creators
