That's right.

One of the other things that we'll see about AM radio, too, Chuck, is that it's it was long considered a public good so that the government had like a little more willingness to be like, no, you can say this.

You can't say that.

And you have to do this.

One of the reasons why is because it was very quickly used to kind of spread public information.

Like presidents took to it very quickly.

Remember I said that KDKA announced the results of the Harding election.

Within just a couple of years, Warren Harding was using it to talk to America.

And FDR was probably the most famous president who used the radio to talk to America.

He had a series of like just informal speeches basically called fireside chat.
