I have to we have to give him credit, but we we do throw each other under the bus. That's the way we call it, uh Nick, when we uh when we do the smack talk as you said, which is a lot of fun.
Well Nick, I apologize. My the first time I found out about you was last night when I watched this movie. And uh I don't know where I was when this was happening. Uh you were on Oprah Winfrey. Uh I I started doing the timeline, which I don't I don't watch a lot of TV and I mainly spend a lot of time in the wilderness. But I missed it. But it's such an incredible, incredible story.
