All right. Good afternoon. Good morning. Good evening, wherever you are. Whatever time zone you're in,

0:06.1

welcome to the resident state. As we continue on, this is going to be our third episode. And I have the

0:14.3

great pleasure of being joined by Mr. William Ramsey, an excellent researcher, a good friend.

0:20.2

And my friend, Sean McCann, not McCann,

0:25.3

and we're going to be actually using, I think we're going to do a dual broadcast between
