Yeah. I mean, the first thing we should probably say, because Jerry in the pre-show banter even got it wrong, even though I said, Jerry, we're doing an episode on Cliff's Notes. She said, I used to get Cliff Notes. It's not Cliff Notes. I used to say Cliff Notes too in high school, but it is Cliff's Notes, as in the person's name was Cliff, as we'll soon find out. It used to have an apostrophe.

Right. And we should tell everyone what this is. If you don't know, I do know that they went around the world a little bit, but it feels like a very American thing. It is a study aid. It's basically sort of about to say a Cliff Notes version of the book because it's so in the lexicon now. Yeah.

It's like if you went to read a book in high school in the 80s, like The Scarlet Letter, and you're like, oh, God, do I really have to read The Scarlet Letter?
