You leaned into it. You leaned into the inspiration. What are you checking your message up? We're doing a podcast here, buddy. You know, I got to, you know, we did podcasts on why not to have your phone open as you're doing important things. And I'm going to disenged that. That's okay. Our own rule, Peter. It's all good. We're having fun here. Hope everybody's doing well. We're coming at you old school with the audio podcast. Well, that's what podcasts are. Aren't podcasts great? Aren't they the best? They are the best. And they're the worst sometimes too. Not today. People. They're the best. The worst. Well, we're here in our new pod suite. This is like Pod Suite v3 here. Man, this is like, this is pandemic version of the pod pod suite. Yeah, we got a Plexiglass sheet between us, which is really, I think, just for the placebo effect. No, dude, it's real plexiglass and it's a barrier.

And it's based upon one simple concept, one magical concept. So, man. But folks are really loving that because it seems to be unlocking some knowledge for folks on, you know, a kind of tricky area. Like how do you

conceptualize voicings? How do you play better voicing? How do you approach jazz

chords at the piano? So that's been a nice thing and you can check out the piano

access pass. Yeah. Get in on that and yeah. What are we talking about today? Well, today
