There's a challenge there that's going to be interesting, which is, and this is what Jack and I find fascinating about Rode.

You mentioned 10 products.

Jack and I called this the Elvis Presley strategy, because just like Elvis was the first to have a greatest hits album of just his top 10 hits, Rode just led with their top 10 products.

Every product is a greatest hit.

How do you find that balance if you're Rode?

How do you expand and continue to grow and add products but not dilute the very clear limitations that have made you successful?

Both Kim and Kylie are trying to make moves to buy back their beauty brands now.

According to reports.

And in general, Jack and I have noticed, we've sold a company before and we've studied acquisitions.
