I was actually there sitting on the couch with all the cool kids watching it and saw him win. And I actually met him originally back in 20. I guess it was 2020 at the beginning of 20, 23, it was like January 2020, you met him just around then. He was a fresh blue belt and he was super tough then. And it's been cool to watch him get better and everything else. And so we talked to him on the podcast. He shares his ideas, some of the things that's been useful to his training. He hasn't been training in an incredibly long time yet, hasn't, you know, and there's some useful ideas, I think, from it where he's talking about how to like connect your game together and when he's talking about some of the things that he's done to improve his game. I think there's a lot to it that could be useful to you, whether you're young or old or if you're a competitor or not a competitor. And so hopefully you guys enjoy the podcast and get something from it. Thanks to our sponsors for helping make this damn thing happen.
