Okay, so this was supposed to be private, but we decided to do it in public.

As any good influencer would do, we said, hey, why do this if we're not going to have the camera on?

I feel like I can rule the world.

I know I could be what I want to.

I put my all in it like no days off.

On the road, let's travel.

Never looking back.

So I guess the setup here is me and Sam are on camera, but you'll also see Ari and Cassie,

Doppelgangers.

And Cassie's the new, she's the new role on the team.

And she came on and we were supposed to do kind of like a strategy meeting of like, oh,

what are we, you're here to help with the podcast. What are we trying to do again? What's the strategy? And we said, why don't we actually just record it? And we'll just do it live and see what comes out of this session. So that's what I'm here to do. Sam, did I, is that what you are expecting here?

Yes, and we all filled out something in advance. You are the only one who did not submit yours already.

Well, okay, yeah, that's right. I did. But I'm like the, I'm like the co-later. Okay, so I, what I like to do in these situations, and I think anybody should steal this.

I stole this from Amazon when we got acquired there. I learned this method, which is you send a little bit of pre-work in advance,

and it makes the meetings so much more interesting and so much more valuable. Because there's,

some people are fantastic at thinking on the spot and coming up with insightful, accurate,

true, honest things on the spot in front of a large group of people.

But that's like 1% of people.

Most people don't think very well that way.

And so if you actually want to get to the right answer, a really good thing to do is to send

out some questions or have people write in advance what they're thinking.
