Well, well, so this is the first time we're going to have it for first Rody Q&A. That's true. Yep. Welcome board, Jordan Driscoll. Hello, sir. Glad to be here. So if you haven't listened to George's podcast, it is one of my personal favorite podcast is on my own personal playlist. You say this every show, by the way. I love this podcast. Go listen. So I'm going to ask geopolitics. It's only a little bit about geopolitics, but it's a lot of history woven together in a story in a way that only Jordan can. and he makes you want to hear the end. It's almost like a true crime drama. Like, it's all woven together and you want to find out what's going to happen. So go a little bit of listen. And if you haven't listened to it, he also likes to drink coffee. I do. So you'll hear a little bit of that. A little bit of that. So before we get into the questions, let's hit the reviews. We've got a five star. I found the show a few years ago when I was looking for a quicker way to stay up to date with what is happening in the energy industry. Like many other listeners, my time is valuable. I'm always considering what to do during my commute from home to the office or when visiting a customer. Mark and Page became my companions, not only when I was driving, but also during my

workouts. I sat at joined one of their old mixers to see if it could add value to my professional

life and the results were incredible. I can't count how many people I met and my professional

network has evolved significantly since then. I met Mark LaCourt and Michael O'Sullivan and we became

friends. From time to time, I meet them for quick lunch and learning sessions during that short time. I've had opportunities to become a business partner and I continue to learn from them and from the show. For those reading reviews to access its worthiness, go ahead and subscribe right now. Damn it. Actually, I threw that in. I also consider exploring other shows like All and Gas Ingenuity, Allengass Digital Doers and Allengass Upstream. Great job marking page.

Remember the Dell logo on the bar? No, I don't actually. So Daniel's a great guy. Daniel,

Who did invent the fracking, just asking?

Wasn't that George Mitchell?

So it was a combination of things.

So the one thing that you have to understand is that it's a combination of two different technologies.
