This is a numbers game with Ryan Gurduski. Welcome back. I appreciate you all being here again this week. I know that everyone's busy with work and family and school and laundry and all the rest of it. And I know that you have very limited time sometimes. So listening this podcast means quite a lot to me. I've realized being built that the amount of hours needed to have a clean

0:28.5

So I know that, I know that many of you have not had the opportunity to like and subscribe

0:35.1

0:37.8

time this week, and I hope you can find the time. You will all be my best friends.

0:42.9

So what I would say growing up, all the time I kept people like, oh, you're my best friend,

but it invokes a general amount of happiness, and he has in this moment. He's drunk, most famous line in the movie, but it invokes a general amount of happiness

1:12.2

and he has in this moment. He's drunk. He's with a prostitute. Things are great. Very little

things in life get me that excited. Get me just that happy on a normal basis. And for me, because I am

incredibly nerdy, that is polls, like really good polls, polls, polls that are interesting, polls that,

1:30.6

that, you know, tell a good story with the national environment. I had the opportunity this

1:35.6

week, I was reached out to by a pollster to ask questions for a national polling survey. Now,

1:41.5

this is like something that costs a lot of money to do,

1:49.6

and they were offering to do it to be on the podcast and talk about it to my audience. So this is something very exclusive, this is something very special. The pollster is Signal, which is

1:54.2

active vote, which kind of ranks all the pollsters that come out during any of a year.
