And, you know, some people had listened to it and reached out and wanted to carry it was a food product in their grocery stores.

I want to go on more podcasts.

And how can I do that?

And, you know, I was sort of going the traditional route that a lot of people still do today, which is I was sort of like manually looking up podcasts.

I was trying to find them, trying to find their contact information, listen to a bit of an episode and like send an email.

I can guarantee that.

And then I was just kind of hanging out and this other tool that I was loving.

I was just like, I want to I want to like dig into this other tool.

It feels feels like there's something really powerful here.

Like, how could I use it to sort of perform like a fun project that would be meaningful for our business?

And what I thought about was, you know, why can't I use this to help pull in a bunch of information about relevant podcasts and then sort of help me scale out like the research identification and outreach process to these podcasts?

So I think like early on, it was just like this sort of natural curious intuition that like, whoa, this tool could be really powerful.

Like what's the current problem I have today that like this could help solve.

And part of it was just playing around.

I would just get on there and play around and like mess around in this tool.

It's called, it was called Bardeen still, still around.

So, so it works really well.
