Alrighty.

Let's start with your background a little bit.

Let's get to find out from you.

Just talking in the green room a moment ago, you told me you moved from Nashville to South Carolina.

a person goes into a nice restaurant and they sit down and they see the wine list or they go into, you know, a total wines and more, you know, total wines and more has got an inventory of a thousand wines in the building.

And you go to the restaurant and there's only five or six or 10 or whatever the number may be.

How does that get called down?

Is it all particular relationships or is that where you come involved in the promo aspect?

Yeah, they've got a hundred selections.

And I come back to, I'll have a hamburger, a cheeseburger and, you know, something.

The Shared Spirits, you said it's an app, right?
