Yeah, give people things that... Because some people are just audio only.
And so we have an audio only subscription tier.
I will just say on the advertiser thing, you're 100% right.
People are allergic to political advertising.
But what I keep telling them, I'm convinced I'm going to be able to brazen through this.
At some point, these advertisers are going to say...
These, especially the more AI slop there is, the having a parasocial, committed, sticky relationship with your listeners and with your community, advertisers aren't going to be able to keep sneering at the political stuff.
They're going to have to say, I don't know, they can keep wasting money on CNN, which nobody's watching and where nobody has a relationship with people, or they can go where people are connected to the people talking and start investing there.
And I think eventually they're going to figure that out.
Well, so part of what is, I think, a bit of a miracle about the bulwark is that we don't gate that much of our content relative to a lot of other media companies like The Daily Wire or somebody else where they sort of drop a paywall all the time.
I think max, max 25% of our stuff is paywalled.
And so the reason that people ride with us and pull out their credit card
Two reasons.
Number one is that they support the mission.
They feel mission alive.
You know, we're a pro-democracy media company.
Then the second thing is...
Sometimes people want to like, they want the commercials gone, right?
Because when you subscribe, you get rid of the commercials.
But the bigger thing they get is commenting, right?
