You had something a little bit similar in New Mexico. There was a guy called Gary Johnson, I think I'm right, aren't I, saying he was the governor of New Mexico, who was kind of libertarian. And it was kind of Ron Swanson-ish. I don't know if you know Parks and Recreation, but you had a libertarian doing a government job.

They were collective goods. And I think his phrase is, if you want economic growth, you need a four-lane highway.

And so he was almost a case in point where, in other words, he very, very narrowly decided what the focus of government within New Mexico should be. And was, by all accounts, actually, he was a presidential candidate for the Libertarian Party back 12 years ago or something. But he was a pretty good governor. Have you been to New Mexico? It's the neighboring state. No, I haven't. It's glorious.

Go there. It's utterly fantastic. The Santa Fe Opera. Give that a go. By the way, I'm trying to start a little tradition that the guests on podcasts get to advertise something as well. Whatever you would like. It always strikes me as very unfair. The Santa Fe Opera. The Santa Fe Opera is my...

I was on Jamie Lang's podcast and started, I think I was plugging a Italian-Jamaican cafe in Westrom. Probably giving it a greater level of indiscriminate fame.

I've got a new one for you. Hit me. Only relevant for Brits, really, although also possibly relevant for expat Indians in the United States. The frozen paratha.

I bought this from Ocado. I thought, why the hell has this frozen paratha got 170 votes and is, like, literally five stars on Ocado? What's Ocado? Oh, my goodness, you don't know. You see, there are lots of things in the UK. So it's grocery delivery, home grocery delivery, very innovative bunch of people who started, you know, effectively robotic picking.
