Another episode that was totally like this, Indian Premier League cricket.

Underperformed.

Love that show.

Incredible story.

Modi?

No, I know there's a whole... Have we got a subject for you?

Okay, but here's the lesson.

Both Nintendo and IPL, they were the first listening experiences for some incredibly influential people who have changed the direction of Acquired.

Nintendo was specifically listened to by one person on the Meta executive team who found it.

thought it was amazing, sent it to the entire meta executive team.

Right.

And then they all listened.

And so without the Nintendo episode... Without the Nintendo episode, Mark Zuckerberg doesn't join us in Chase Center.

No 6,000 person... And we have some similar stories with IPL.

The point is that doing episodes that we, one or both of us, is just insanely passionate about.

From doing these episodes and underperforming.

Go for it.

I'm making a different point, which is that if one of us feels passionate about something, even if the episode is a relative dud, it's still worth doing because invariably somebody latches onto that passion.

Yeah.

Now, sometimes we're passionate about something and it becomes a banger.
