0:00.0	Hey, deserving listeners. It's just me today. Today, I need to give an update about the
0:13.5	whole tariff soft duty to warn thing. I've learned a lot of stuff recently. I've consulted
0:20.7	with some some experts on this. I did an episode in which I talked about how our duty to
0:28.6	warn requirements have changed recently due to some recent case law in Washington state.
0:37.8	And I think it affects people in other states too. And in that episode, I was talking about
0:45.3	how these case law situations were completely screwing up our duty to warn and making us
0:51.6	have to report all sorts of stuff. And it was ridiculous. And so after talking and consulting
1:00.5	with some experts on this, I understand it much better now. And so I want to talk about

1:50.2	violate that confidentiality to protect other people if our client was threatening to kill someone
1:56.9	or something. Well, I and many of my colleagues used to have a very simple understanding of
2:03.4	this whole thing because there was a very simple guideline that we followed that we called
2:08.6	tariff soft. But recently, particularly in a Washington state, there's been a case law where judges
2:17.1	and courts and Supreme courts have ruled in such a way that they're like, well, yeah, sure,
2:22.0	tariff soft is great, but there are other situations in which you also have to report in which,
2:27.1	and if you don't, you'll be found negligent and liable. And so, so anyway, today I'm going
