Paws, Purpose & Profit: A Conversation with Pets at Home CEO Lyssa McGowan

But I mean, that could be a topic for an entirely different and longer podcast. But that idea of trust in a time when trust is at a premium, I think is fascinating and must be kind of part of what you and the board and you've touched on the board relationship a couple of times.
