Welcome to State of the Nation. This is episode for 11th, our 11th episode of State of the Nation.

7:59.4

David, how are you doing today? I'm doing just fantastic. I stepped away for a whole four days,

8:05.2

and it cost me in my ability to understand what the hell's going on.

8:10.3

But, you know, four days is like probably four weeks at least, like in the real world.

8:14.7

Yeah, yeah. It's an insane amount of time. But I've spent most of yesterday trying to get back on track.

8:20.1

And I think I'm there. I didn't think I'm there. Awesome, man. Well, I'm excited. We've got some great topics. We've got a very special guest, Raul Jordan. He is from the Prismatic Labs team. And we're going to introduce him in just a minute. But if you're not familiar with State of the Nation, what we do every single episode is we broadcast this live on Tuesdays now.

9:07.9

So every Tuesday, we drop this on YouTube.

9:10.5
