You know I want to congratulate my friend Tim Ferris on the 10th anniversary of his podcast. It is such an excellent podcast. It's one of the few

among my long distance friends.

And congratulations to him on having a tenth year anniversary

of his podcast. I remember when he was first considering the podcast he was

So you, at the time that you were probably checking them out, I think only the first two maybe were up on

Yeah, I only saw the, um, you, Stuart Copeland, you know, one of the best films in the world was teaching you how to drum so
