I think it was Gray.
And I always said to myself at the time, like, he had so much currency at the time.
Why didn't he buy Gray Advertising?
And he could have changed the dynamic of the agency.
He could either take it public.
And so that went, and then I was at this company called Inner Talent.
They got bought by ICM.
ICM like had the greatest agents and it just was bad management.
And then we started the firm.
And I just said, you know, I'm not gonna have a bad culture like ICM.
And when the opportunity comes, I'm gonna go for assets that I could own and change kind of the dynamic of what an agency and what representation and what,
I don't want to buy a studio.
I don't want to buy a sports team.
I just started this company.
I raised about $2 billion.
I'm going to start this big events company.
So, my plate's really full.
I'm loving life right now.
And...
Yeah, I mean, TKO is in a great place right now with all the deals we made.
