And he's Canadian, so automatically you have a place in my heart. We're friends right off the bat. Cool. He wrote a book called Buy Back Your Time. And I thought he was joking.
I got to just say this because his schedule is super, super tight. And he's like, well, maybe I'll just take a helicopter to get to you. And I'm like, yeah, ha, ha, ha. And he legit meant it and took a helicopter to get here. And I had no idea you were being serious. Yeah.
Yeah. I mean, LA, as you know, it's so unpredictable. We were just down in San Clemente and I wanted to get up here. And we've done this before in LA specifically. There's certain cities where a helicopter move makes sense, again, to buy back your time. Because it was either that or 90 minutes on the freeway. And I got to be back in Newport. And I have my son here. So we just made an experience.
Okay, wait. How long did it take to get here from there?
17 minutes.
