Yeah, it's still we had a really good episode. It still plays a lot. It plays overseas. I'll know when it plays in Australia or in Europe somewhere because I'll get a bunch of weird Facebook messages. So now. So in 2016. They were filming season eight and they had somebody drop out at the last minute. So one of the things in life is if there's no reason to say no, then you say yes.

So they came to us and said, we've got two weeks to do this. We've got seven or eight people that we're talking to. We'd have to fly out from California tomorrow, shoot a sizzle reel, put it together, pitch it to NBC. And they would, or was it CBS? I think it was CBS. Pitch it to the network. Yeah. Pitch it to CBS.

and they would have to decide so we did that and really quick it came back that they were interested in having us on so then we went through the reams and reams and reams of paperwork and it was we went out on the show I mean we went out on the road maybe like a month later and it was a surreal experience for those people that haven't been behind the scenes in a production like that

It was really cool. I know I signed a bunch of confidentiality stuff and I really don't want to do anything to, you know, I don't want to say anything that makes it harder for them to do the show. But it just it seems to me, Ryan, like every year the show is canceled.

And then somehow it comes back for another. So but I mean, to pull this, it's such a well-known show. But I will tell you the the way that this is done, there is it is it is so it is done so well and so over the top. That you would not think, like, people do, like, is this undercover boss? And then as this is going on, they're like, no, it's not. It's clearly not. But it really is.

So, yeah, it was great. We ended up being on the road. We had a couple of little hiccups with a couple of things that were going on politically where we shot some stuff in North Carolina and then there. They're like, oh, well, we don't want to shoot in North Dakota. We had to reshoot stuff. So I had to fly my family. We did all the family stuff, right? We went, we did the office stuff.

We did the B-roll at the office. And then we went to the house and, you know, I'm cooking hot dogs on the grill. Dogs are swimming in the pool and all that. And they're like, we can't use any of that because there was some political thing going on. So, and it was a, you know, one of those things. And so then they, You know, we go out on the road for a week. We film two or three segments.

We fly my family to this wonderful resort somewhere in Georgia and we reshoot all of the family stuff. And then we go on the road. So I was on the road for a total of like 16 days. And it was a great experience. And I will tell you that we had five, the producer said we had five episodes that we had to cut one that many shows would have killed to have.
