Yeah, we got to do it.
Why do you call them carve-outs?
What does this even mean?
Okay, so you'll appreciate this.
It was my wife's idea back towards the beginning of the show.
She used to listen to Slate's, I think it was the Culture Gab Fest.
Yes.
And they do cocktail chatter at the end of episodes.
And it's just like, hey, something unrelated.
And she was like, you guys should do that.
That's fun.
Well, I understand the idea of it.
Why is it called a carve-out?
Well, okay, so then we were like...
This was in a phase of Acquired where we wanted to brand everything around acquisitions.
Okay, there we go.
And so we thought, okay, what can we call this?
We're not going to call it cocktail chatter.
We came up with the idea of a carve-out, like in an M&A transaction, a carve-out is like this piece of the purchase price goes to this set of shareholders for special reasons, their employees or whatever.
We used to have a thing called the LP Show because we had all these little branding cards.
