I'm going to go with an NPR voice for today's episode. Okay. People are driving. Do not do that. Oh, it's soothing, you know. You might be responsible for killing someone. It's very soothing. So, but hey, I am just excited to be back. I've been a little MIA on the radio show. spotty but spotty, but I'm going to be back in the groove with my man, my partner and co-hosts here, Mark J. Kohler, super excited to be doing the show again together. Yeah, glad you're back. So, yeah, I had to cover

1:22.3

for you last week. We did our disaster planning show, very timely with Harvey and Irma and Jose and Juan and

1:31.2

Billy and Bobby I mean geez gosh we live in a crazy world there's like you know what I

1:36.4

wondered is why they don't name forest fires I mean they name hurricanes but they should

1:41.0

yeah you know they should name a fire I agree with that I agree with that but they should when they. They should name a fire. I agree with that. I agree with that. But they should, when they're naming stuff, I mean, Harvey, Irma, I don't know. Like, it should be like, you know, Megatron 10,000. It should like strike fear in you. Yeah. It's like, oh, Uncle Harvey's coming by. I don't know. Yeah. Yeah. I know. And I don't want to get in trouble here saying someone's name sounds more dangerous than another, but yeah, I mean, you know, he's, he's pretend, Mark. I don't know any guys named Megatron. But, you know, the thing with Forest Fires, I don't even, I just came up with this. I didn't even prep this topic. I just, It just came to me. But, you know, if you named forest fires, you know, the problem is you'd probably want to name the forest fire after the doofus that started the fire.

2:25.5

So you'd have herb, you know.

2:29.6

True enough.

2:30.2

Cleetus started a fire.

2:33.4

True enough. But then you'd get some idiot, you know, trying to get some notoriety out there, you know. He's, oh, I got that. Yeah, that's me. That one's me. I got my name on it. Yeah, some arsonous dream. I want a forest fire named after me. Yeah. That's probably the problem. we zeroed on it. Okay. Show's a wrap. There you go. Well, we hope to solve some of your real problems in the world or give you something, you know, that can you actually use in your life, maybe about protecting your assets, saving taxes, building wealth. Um, today we've actually got a good topic. Yeah, right. That's right. We're going to hit one of those three. I thought this was just our hour we could be us and, you know, someone might listen. It's a give and take. You know, we got to give both of those things. No one wants to hear just the tax and little stuff. This is the only hour where I'm not billing someone. So, you know, they're not watching their pocketbook.

3:25.1

So they're like, well, I'm driving down the road. I'm not paying for this. So I'll just listen. Exactly. I don't care what you think about whether forest fires are named or not. That is absolutely worthless. Yeah. Well, what do we talk about, Mark? Yeah. Did we think of something? Yeah. This is going to be a great show today.

3:41.1

We're talking about intellectual property, trademarks.
