So I read Dan Egan's book, which is The Death and Life of the Great Lakes.
And then...
I wrote like a 75-page paper about the Great Lakes and all the things I had learned.
And then the pandemic hit.
And I was in the middle of my last year in grad school.
And I started a TikTok account that my first video I ever posted kind of went viral because of the work that I was doing.
But the main question is still, is this a book?
Clearly the object inside the jar is a book, but it's now become part of the jar and the contents as artifact.
The book has lost its...
And that's how you go viral on the internet is just make everybody really mad.
And I use that to kind of end up making Great Lakes videos.
And that kind of ended up somersaulting into me making videos about lakes of the world.
And then the first Spooky Lake Month video was in October of 2020.
And they're really messy videos because they were like back when you only had a minute.
Which is essentially like strange lakes of the world wave.
Any body of water, actually, any water, anything that's wet.
That's morbid, Allie.
I'm crazy about Spooky Lake Month because I should do some of those videos ahead of time or prep them.
Even download some pictures.
That would be helpful, Gio.
