Alright, welcome back to Waveform. We got another special long form episode for you today.

And this one is a long time coming. We actually did that ICANN and the Seven Keys of the Internet

episode way back in November. We published it in December. Turns out, we did so much research

for that episode. We ended up with two stories. We tried to slam both of those stories into

one story and it just became two tail-end, the tangential. So we just decided we were going to cut it

up into two. And now almost six months later, we have the second part. Welcome to part two. Welcome

to part two. If you haven't seen ICANN and the Seven Keys of the Internet, I do recommend going to

watch that. There's a lot of relevant stuff. They're not directly related, but they are

tentatively related. So you should go watch that either before or after this episode. But yeah,

you guys ready to get started? I am ready. I'm trying to recall as much from that as possible,

just so I have that context. But yes, fully, I almost forgot about this to be honest. So most

context you need is David never ordered that pizza at the end of the year. That was a cliffhanger,

a spoiler, a spoiler, who didn't yet see that episode. The pizza was never ordered. Yeah,

but we do own dot pizza now. This is a lot more like a prequel rather than a

single one. Yeah, it's like a prequel. It's the lore. Yeah, so Star Wars, you know,

backwards. Yeah, this is about to be like the phantom medicine of Waveform podcasts. I don't

know if that's a good thing or not. It's about to be the attack of the clothes of Waveform podcasts.

I like that one. I like that. I like that. All right. So if you guys could take a guess,

where do you think that our story begins today?

David brainstorming something or four hours later,

making up a different story. I should say when do you think our story begins?

The second you ordered that pizza. As has been the case for the at least two other longform
