And when I was up in Montreal on the way back, I stopped at a little town called Grafton, Vermont, and I got a little thing of maple syrup. So I'm going to sneak down into IHOP next time I go in there and have those pancakes with IHOP syrup on it. But that
not a recent memory that's just more my obsession at this point in time my recent memory it goes back to montreal as well before i got up there a friend of mine had done some consulting work for a company that sold montreal bagels in the united states i asked her so what is a montreal bagel i come from where i went to high school in north jersey we have a certain standard for bagels that we appreciate we look scornfully upon anyone else in any other state that tries to sell something called a bagel so this montreal bagel intrigued me
And when I got up to Montreal, I find out it's not really a bagel at all. It's kind of like a bagel where you chop the top and bottom off and you're left with that little skinny middle part there. And it was difficult for me to find a Montreal bagel that would hold an appropriate amount of anything, meat, cream cheese, lettuce, tomato, anything on there. It's more like thin toast. than a bagel.
And I think that they almost shouldn't call that a bagel at all, but, um, and, and really no offense to the folk, good folks up in Montreal and our friends up in Canada, but I don't think you should really hold that out as a brand of choice for you guys. So that's my recent food experience.
And I had this conversation with the... Well, let me ask you, was it just undercooked or was it just a piece of offal that's always going to be red anyway?
Well, you did Nashville wrong. I mean, if you were Nashville hot chicken, I mean, you got to go to Hattie B's, stand in line or go to churches and get that scorching chicken. And the only thing that really I think stands out was the banana pudding I got afterwards there.
They do banana pudding well down there. And two other restaurants of note in Nashville for any loyal listeners that do go there. One in East Nashville is called I Dream of Weenie. It's the best hot dogs. And you want to get the Rebel Yelp with the jalapenos in there. That's a good one. And then, Darren, to your seeking ribs, Uncle Bud's Catfish and such.
That's the all-you-can-eat place over there in, oh, goodness, East Donaldson. Donaldson, I think it is.
Well, they have vanilla wafers in there, too.
Typically, well, I shouldn't say typically. Many times when I'm giving presentations, it's to CPAs, certified public accountants. And they come to see me speak because they get continuing education credits. And it's part of the 40 credits they need every two years to continue their licensure. So they're coming to me because they have to. And typically when I speak, about one third will nod off.
One third will do work. And then one third typically has kind of eye contact. I'm not sure if they're even understanding what I'm saying or not. This was a whole different audience. They were engaged. They made eye contact. They nodded at the appropriate times. They laughed when it was a good line or they were serious when we had other lines, too. I like that a lot.
One thing that kind of stood out for me there, too, I know being inside of a conference space with pipe and drapes separating people and just, you know, all the hard angles for sounds to echo off of and all that. It was a good job and kind of keeping the music where it needed to be. I thought the food was a little bit better than average. You know, we had to figure out where it was coming out of.
And make sure we position ourselves in a place where we got the full trays around the empty trays going back into the kitchen to get refilled. But I think that one day we positioned ourselves really well. They were just putting food in front of us left and right. And I had a lot of really good one-off conversations with people too. Many of them because of your introduction.
So I appreciate that as well. You're welcome. Fantastic people. And I've got several follow-ups I'm working on right now based on that. Good. I appreciate it. I also like the fact that it wasn't just the cyber community, commercial community, the government cyber communities were there.
And I don't normally see that type of representation at events like every once in a while in the US, maybe there's an NSA person or something like that. But here they were full-fledged in uniform, ready, apparent, and wanted to talk. And you saw me, I made a beeline right to them. I'm like, ah, government's here. Thank God. Let's tell them what's going on.
And loyal listeners out there, if any of you have IHOP coupons, I might have a copy of that picture for you.
Well, there's actually two parts to that question. One is the ag tech adaptation by farmers to begin with, and that's a It's something that a lot of people need to understand, and it boils down to one simple question. How does this make the farmer more money? Not that they'd spend money to save money. How will this adoption of whatever this technology is make them more money behind the farm gate?
Their margins are so narrow right now. As I mentioned in Montreal, most agriculture professionals and farmers get paid once a year. Everything they own is collateral for that paycheck, and it's dependent upon that crop they're growing right now. So they're rolling really heavy dice. Usually it's a multi-generation.
So they not only have their ongoing business and their families to support, they have the weight of all those generations before them that gave them that land to produce something on. So there's a huge psychological weight on that. So when you come along and say, hey, we need to give you a new bolus or a new ear tag or a new mesh system for your farm because it'll help reduce methane.
Or it'll help sequester carbon. OK, how does that make me more money without me spending money to get to that point in time? The cybersecurity overlay into all that technology that plugs into the Internet is a whole different question. And, you know, number one, there's already the resistance to spending a lot of money on technology that may or may not be beneficial. Now, how do you protect it?
