Well, thank you for saying that. My father came here. He was born in France, of course. And so for him to have the opportunity to meet the French president, to come to a state dinner like that was pretty mind-blowing. It was really an exciting—that was an exciting evening for sure.

Well, wasn't that something else? Oh, my goodness. Ladies and gentlemen. Wow. Okay. So normally, of course, on this podcast, I call my mother after these conversations and I sort of bring her up to speed on the conversation that I've had with the wise woman I was talking to. But in this case... My dear mom was listening because she was so excited to hear it live. So she heard the conversation.

Yeah, I know. I felt the same. By the way, I don't know if you know this, but my sister Lauren came to watch it live, too, as did my niece, your granddaughter, Fia. And she came along as well. And so she got to meet Nancy Pelosi, which was very important and exciting. I thought that was cool.

Well, not just her grandchildren. She brought all the children up. Well, yes. So there were lots of people who had brought their kids on the opening day of Congress and they had brought their children and grandchildren to the floor. And so she invited all the children up.

I thought that was particularly interesting because I don't know if you remember, but Patti Smith, when she was on the show, she said the same thing.
