0:16.5	I'm Ben Gretch. You can find my Twitter at Yardsburg Gretsch. You can find my subsack at
0:20.2	Ben Gretsch.com. With me, as alwaysburg-Gretsch. You can find my substack at Ben-Gretsch.substack.com. With me as always is Sean Siegel. You can find all of his work over at Rodeviz. And today we're joined by an industry titan. Analyst of the year, I think twice in a row while I was there at CBS. A buddy of mine, I got an opportunity to work with him for 16 months, and it was an absolute blast.
0:40.0	It's Jamie Eisenberg, he of the great sleepers breakouts and bus columns that he writes every year, different versions of them.

1:40.1	You do a really good job of staying on top of camp news

1:55.6	That's something we're all trying to do.
