Well, I mean, it's a crazy story, man.

So I actually reached out to them.

I saw a article talking about Draper University.

And I was at University of Santa Cruz.

And I was like, you know what?

This is not for me.

I need to be surrounded by entrepreneurs and doing something like that.

And I applied.

And I didn't hear from them for a long time, maybe about a month.

And actually, my bank account hit zero.

I had to go back to Florida.

anymore.

And literally the morning that I booked the ticket back to Florida, I got the call that night, 7.30, and they said, hey, you're on the show.

So it was kind of actually like a, you know, like the last, the 12th hour moment where you were about to give up, but then things worked out.

Yeah, so the way it worked was you had to be approved by both, right?

So you kind of created your own application and sent it into both, essentially.

And then, like I said, you had to be accepted by both in order to get on the show and into Draper University.

Oh, no, no, no.

Yeah.

So the way that worked was they actually filmed like 12 hours a day, six to seven days a week.
