That's one.
I think there's a bit of a cold start.
If you were to propose going and creating an acquired for sports...
You would, the sort of risk I guess we took, we didn't think about it as risk at the time because it was just a hobby, was you're looking at years of no or little monetization.
Right.
Because it's going to take a long time to build up the audience.
Right.
Versus, oh, I could go join a network.
I could make a show on The Ringer.
I could, you know, do whatever.
Fortunately, there are a lot more people who want to sponsor Acquired than... That's what I mean.
How many more are there?
Then we become CEOs.
I think there's two different things that we're talking about here.
One is milking the market, yes or no.
The other one is do you want to build an enterprise or do you want to stay a boutique?
So to your question for us, why don't we create more acquirers?
We don't want to manage other shows, podcast hosts.
You don't even have to say, Meta's a public company, but founder control.
I mean, Google too.
