I was like, okay, fine.

At least I tried.

I did everything I possibly could.

Sean sends me a text as soon as it's released, pretty close to as soon as it was released.

I just, Sean said that it was doing well.

It became his biggest podcast that he's ever done.

still current day, on Apple, Spotify, YouTube combined.

It's got hundreds of millions of views, a total of, with the shorts, billions of views.

And I'm not saying this because I'm some noteworthy individual that at the time that had like a, you know, that would have brought that type of traffic in.

I think what happened is

people could resonate and understand that this is not something that is an uncommon problem.

It's a taboo topic that people don't talk about until it happens to someone around them or happens in their family.

And that means a lot to me.
