Hello Katie.

What's up, Dave?

How are ya?

Just, you know, hanging out at 9 o'clock on Tuesday.

You know, I feel like the introduction to this call is a little bit too nonchalant considering

this is the first time we're actually hearing each other's voice.

Yeah, I could say that.

I'm pretty excited about this.

I do. I'm very nervous, but I'm calming down.

I get nervous, like, right leading up to you, but then when it's going down, I'm fine.

It's just the lead up that I am allowed to, you know, cite myself out.

Well, I'm nervous too, so that's two of us.

Fair enough.

I've never done this before. I am freaked out right now.

You do this all the time. You talk to people on the phone all the time.

I don't know that.

I happen to have listened to a couple of your podcasts, just be an honest.

Well, listen, I'm super excited.

Most importantly, just that I get to talk to you, but thank you for coming on and being

willing to chat. I know, before we even had the conversation, this is going to help a lot of people.

And I'm really just excited to hear you talk.

And here, sort of, your side of things, because you've really done some really tremendous work
