And then like the next day they get the phone call, their aunt died. And there's so many stories like that we hear just in everyday life. Right. Sure. So, again, like it's just if we sat back and really thought about this, this isn't wild. This is part of the human experience.

In the beginning, I think when I was starting to go into this, I was meditating a lot and doing a lot of stuff. But but right now I'm so focused on just getting the story out that it's like all my time is put on that. And I've kind of put my own stuff aside for a little bit here. But I mean, meditation, I think that's the number one way to to help open up anything mental. Right.

I mean, that's and meditation like 20, 30 years ago was considered kind of fringe and out there and the idea that it could benefit you. Scientists looking into that were kind of like, oh, this guy's kind of, you know, and and now it's that those people were right.

Yeah, I think so. And I think, I mean, definitely it's gratifying. But, you know, the story behind that is pretty remarkable. And that's, I think, one of the things that was most gratifying because I never intended to make a podcast. You know, I was trying to make a documentary of this.

And then the documentary became so big that I was like, oh, maybe I have to make it as docu-series, like pitched it to a bunch of, you know, streamers and stuff. And I think people loved it. They were like, oh, this is such a good pitch. And oh, my gosh. But like, it doesn't fit our mandate. Like, what is it? It's not true crime. It's not this. It's not that. And so everywhere we pitched said no.

Everywhere we pitched. And I remember going home and feeling devastated because I thought this was the most important news in the world. How could anyone like this is this needs to get out there and thinking it's the end of the road. I can't afford to go do a documentary on my own. I can't do this. I can't do that. And I was just like.

You know, and and I thought this could be a good podcast, but I never made one. So then it was sort of like this will be my final pitch. Like, hopefully someone will notice and then we can get the film funded. And so I made the podcast as just like a desperate like Hail Mary, like someone listen to this, please, and fund documentary. And then it like went crazy.
