I think part of the reason that it didn't even occur to me for these sponsors is kind of like if we had to say, by the way, Apple, past sponsor of the show, but of course Apple has never sponsored the show, but we talk about Apple so much.

Like these big companies, like Google obviously is in the league with Apple, and now like Anthropic and OpenAI, like

They're such big companies.

It's like, well, they don't sponsor our sponsors.

They're small companies that want to get their message out.

We're not doing ads for Google, but we did.

We did do an ad for Google.

And the same thing for Anthropic.

Now these companies have whole jillions of dollars in their advertising.

So obviously you listen to the show, you would hear that they're sponsors.

And even if you're a member, you can look in our show notes and you will see in the show notes who our sponsors are.

But we do try very, very hard.

Anytime we bring up a sponsor, Casey will say, and blah, blah, blah, former sponsor, blah, blah, blah, former or future sponsor.

We try to do that.

pretty much all the time.

Obviously, we're not going to say that every time we mention them within an episode, but we do try to, like the first time they're brought up or whatever, mention it.

And we didn't do it for Google Anthropic.

And I have to say, going forward, it's going to be difficult to remember to do it every time we bring up AI type things because it's like Google.

We talk about Google all the time.

But anyway, we continue to try just to remind you because not everyone has listened to every episode.
