I stopped because of knees.

Just the concept of knees.

Just knees in general.

I was seeing too many of them.

I would go home and have these thoughts about knees and I was like, I just need, I can't.

I think my answer might be related to that.

So rather than because, obviously, mergers are a...

constant threat and the most immediate one is always the most immediate threat.

Like land disputes around the world are everything from horrific in the medium term to systemic in the long term.

I think in terms of

a threat being existential, one of the biggest problems right now is the kind of information that is available to you to get.

That feels to me like an existential threat.

Because people are so siloed now and are so able to traffic in low-grade information.

One of the big things that...

I've learned by doing our show is that there is a huge amount of utility in having access to experts in the field that researchers will speak to.

And you can get good primary source information.

There is so much trash being passed around and confidently passed around.

I worry about that.

It's hard to have a conversation about anything when the information about that thing is so poor.

That is my concern.
