But I hear you. voice-verified

Like certainly that did that was the case with Amazon. voice-verified

And when you were talking about it, that also reminds me sort of of Disney over the years, right? voice-verified

Like they've historically had also COOs who have um who have departed. voice-verified

I think Kevin Mayer voice-verified

comes to mind as one. voice-verified

Um and there have been a number of others. voice-verified

I think ta uh Sam T Tom Staggs, who also ended up working with Kevin Mayer, um, I think together on a project, were two of the people who were viewed to be sort of the the top internal candidates. voice-verified

And then they obviously didn't get it. voice-verified

Um and that's an interesting analogy too because uh that harkens to the time when when Bob Iger tried to step back and hand it over the reins um and it didn't work. voice-verified

out and he ended up having to come back. voice-verified

And so I think Tim someone like Tim Cook, who's obviously close with with Bob I or close with Disney, has to look at that situation the way that that was handed off and really wants to avoid that. voice-verified

It was a little bit of a extenuating circumstance because of COVID times, right? voice-verified

I think no one no one could have known that the entire all of Disney would get thrown into disarray in the way that it had. voice-verified

But there was a lot of question marks of whether Bob Chapek, the guy who he chose at that time, was the right person. voice-verified

Um, but I think to your to your exact point, like once he got picked, a bunch of other people sort of, yeah, stepped back. voice-verified

Um and so I think Apple is looking at all of this stuff when it comes to the succession planning. voice-verified

Yeah. voice-verified

Uh yeah, yeah. voice-verified

Right. voice-verified
