But there was a comment on one of the YouTube videos.

I think it was kind of a reinforcement for you.

Like, it was actually good that you were nervous, that it showed how much you cared.

But also, someone said watching it on TVNZ.

That never really happened.

Like how often would you watch an interview where the interviewer is saying they're nervous and then go on to do a really good job?

Like it's just kind of an interesting, like a real authentic dynamic.

And I remember thinking that at the time, like I'm really glad that was captured in it because it's just real.

I don't know if we've really sat with it much and reflected on what it does.

Like you're here because we had you on the podcast and the relationship that we built off the back of that, right?

Like it was so well received and you got so many, so much interest because of the love that came from the podcast.

And it's the same for Dave Wood and Lucy Hone and Carl Sheridan and

Nate Alley, you know, when Nate messaged me this morning, he said he had hundreds of messages.

But that's it's kind of like a byproduct of what we do is just like elevating people's stories and seeing their lives change.

So when we were talking to Nate about coming on, I knew that

this would happen for him when he shared his story the way that he did and so to watch this week play out is this is exactly the same as when you came on and I knew what would happen and how that week would play out like that's the coolest thing it's an interesting responsibility isn't it like I think part of I don't think it's lost on us because I think we do whoever comes in

Yeah, we were talking with Shah about a Between Two Bears party.

And it doesn't have to be a big boozy party.

But something where we invite all of the former guests.

What an incredible room to be part of.
