super grateful and I'm very thankful for the shift in the direction of the winds, morally, politically, spiritually.
Yeah, great question.
So I think that at the very base of every episode of Iggy and Mr. Kirk, which, by the way, is a story of Mr. Kirk, who has adopted a five-year-old iguana and raising him in his backyard in a treehouse with a whole cast of colorful animal friends, including a vulture named Culture.
who is always deceiving Iggy, lying to him about who he is and why he's here and who loves him and truth and all of that.
But he has access to a based supercomputer, a non-woke Siri chat GPT that's always telling him the truth.
So he's learning lessons about identity and purpose and who he can trust.
we want kids to be able to identify with Iggy as a five-year-old, six, seven-year-old and say, I struggle with that same thing.
And this is what Iggy learned or this is what Iggy did.
First, he did the wrong thing.
Then he learned from Mr. Kirk, his dad or his mom, and he did the right thing and it turned out good.
So we want to hold out the moral code that we want children to work with
But we want the reality of the fact that nobody's perfect.
We all make mistakes.
We're all working through it.
We're wrestling with desires in our hearts and thoughts in our head that may be wrong or may be confusing us.
And so we need to have reliable guides like...
a mom and dad, hopefully, that's the ideal, to guide you.
And other resources, even outside your family, sources of truth and good friends that can help you as a child.
Because, you know, as...
Whoever rocks the cradle rules the future, something like that.
