Like I try to grab a reader and get them to the state of mind where they'll let you take them anywhere and teach them about stuff that they don't even know they want to learn about.

I think if we're doing this as a 10th anniversary sort of celebration, I'm honored.

And I feel like I'm a little out of my depth here because I'm just a new listener and I haven't listened to all of it.

I'm hardly the world's authority on your podcast.

And I didn't prepare at all except to listen to it.

Except I did one thing.

And that was, I went back and listened to your very first house.

Oh, God.

Oh, wow.

Just to compare.

Be kind, please.

It is shocking how different it is from where you started, from where you have, you probably haven't ended up, but where you are now.

So I'm going to start by this 10-year journey.

I think I can see some things you've learned.

Oh, all right.

But I want to know what you think you've learned.

Let's do the 10 lessons from the 10-year journey.

It's actually one big thing.

And if you say it, I'll acknowledge that you sunk my battleship.

And I have nothing to add.
