I mean, so to be clear, are these like, are they bringing back cartridges of older games? Or are these, oh, also I wanted to stay at the We News desk for a moment, because I have something that ties in perfectly with that. Oh yeah, bring back the We News desk. Yeah, bring it back for just a second. Heck yeah. Because I have a very small copy.

Yeah, so it's about Twitch, but it's viewed through the lens of nine...

Yeah, so it's about Twitch, but it's viewed through the lens of nine...

nine creators on the platform, nine streamers, some of whom were bigger, some of whom were smaller as a way to sort of understand how Twitch as a platform impacts the people on it and how those people in turn are able to shape that platform via, you know, their words and their actions and also just platforms, you know, needing to cater to the people on them to succeed.
