It's unbelievable. Yeah, I mean, it's like high fantasy, Arthurian legend, seven episodes at very high cost. I mean, it is a major, massive project. And he has to go and he has to edit that. We have to figure out exactly how we're going to market that. We have other creative projects that Jeremy is going to work on, that Jeremy wants to work on, and that Jeremy is involved with.
And frankly, the day-to-day management of a very large and growing company was not, I think, in his view, consilient with that mission, which is for him to do more creative projects, to do more on the entertainment side.

I mean, as somebody who looks at the balance sheet, I can tell you that is certainly not the case. And we are healthy. We are growing. We are thriving. And we have extremely big moves that we are looking forward to making this year.

Well, I mean, I guess that's the way I'm going to get elected governor of Pennsylvania right there. And that's my spokesperson. I didn't see that one coming. I will tell you that. That is weird.

I think your audience probably, I would guess, mostly voted for Trump, but I know lots of people who watched you and didn't.
