I mean, I think we've covered a lot on CBTI and let's now revisit the idea of the types of things that people should be on the lookout for that need to be addressed first. So we haven't talked about sleep apnea. We haven't talked about restless leg syndrome. What are the other things where you just want to have...

Some sort of sign off that says, hey, we've also confirmed that these things aren't present or what gets your suspicion roused that says, hey, we got to look at something else because you're presumably not doing polysomnography on everybody on the way in. How do you navigate that?

Yeah. What degree of social jet lag do you tolerate? Just for folks listening, social jet lag, meaning the experience of changing your sleep time during weekends, which could be akin to jet lag if it differs by hours. In an ideal world, it would be zero, right? In an ideal world, I wake up at seven o'clock in the morning every single day of the week.

For an individual who says, oh, but God, on the weekends, it's just so nice to not have to get up at seven. Do you say, look, give yourself a 30 minute grace and that would still be considered perfectly healthy?

That's all of them. Yeah. That's during treatment. I had to check.

So basically force the suffering into the narrowest place possible.

We're recording this on a Tuesday. Sunday, two days ago, I was flying back to Austin from LA and the flight got delayed over and over and over and over and over again for reasons that are so asinine they're not even worth describing. And then we finally got on the plane and taxied and then the water was leaking out of the coffee machine. So we had to go back to get another plane.

I'm not making this up, but I can only tell you how ridiculous this is. The punchline of the story is we didn't get home until two in the morning, which is long past my bedtime. So what would your strategy have been getting home at two in the morning prior to Monday, a work day where you do have some leeway? I don't have to get up at six, which would be my normal wake up time.

Would you have said, just get up at six, stick with it and make it up by going to bed a lot earlier Monday night? Or would you say sleep until eight? You'll probably feel better than if you woke up at six. How would you handle that situation?
