A certain song comes on and you're looking at something, you know, incredibly beautiful.

And when I did a TV show called Pilgrimage, we learned about thin space, which is this

really phenomenal sunset in Arizona, but like something that you couldn't quite believe was happening.

Tom Beard, who directed Finding Michael, was documenting this journey with us.

And we agreed to kind of climb this hill together early evening the night before the Arizona Ironman.

So that we could get a good look at the landscape and where we'd be going.
