Transcript
00:00And I'm going to say that we're very special. We hit it off. We started talking, but you allowed me and I allowed you. And then we started going through certain topics and we saw how far they would go and some were good, but then others were amazing.
00:13And so, but we gave the time. You're exceptionally busy. And so am I. But we realized in the course, and this is during a work day, but we need this. And it's not even a timeout. You and I need this oasis in our crazy desert that even though it's not making money right now and we're not attending to our clients and patients, you and I needed to hang out on a Friday for a little bit and just talk.
00:42Because we know that for ourselves, it's being selfless.
