We are live.

What's going on, Roddy? Beggars, how we doing? We got Danny on on site, out fishing for carp in the middle of know river in England. We got the man, the myth, the legend down there, Russell Brunson joining us from Boise, Idaho, with, you know, 18 other things he's juggling. So, so excited we could have you here. We're live. Like, real live.

Pinch me.

We're live, and we've got some exciting news to talk about, so. But first off, Russell, what do you think? Here we go. It's an. You know, we've had an incredible Take and Grow Rich challenge. We had so much support, so many great affiliates and JVs out there helping promote it, and now we get to announce the contest winners. Yeah.

First off, thank you guys all for jumping it all in and playing full out. I don't know about you guys, but I had so much fun. Like, thinkers Challenge was cool. It was unique. We had, like, the coolest guests and speakers and, like, just grateful for all you guys pushing full out. And then, as you guys know, we offered the Core Secrets training at the end of it and had a huge percentage people upgraded to that, which was great, and it's fun. We actually. I've done two modules with those guys, and we're doing module number three today, and that group is on fire. Like, they are so excited to change the world and create their info products and their courses, and so just on the side of, like, the customers you guys all sent to us as affiliates, it's been really fun working with them, and we're grateful for you guys sending them, and we're taking great care of them and helping them be successful and all the things. So anyway, it's. It's been. It's been so much fun thing. Gorge Challenge was. Was the highlight of the last. The last 90 days for me, for sure.

Yeah, it was so much fun. Course Seekers is awesome. I'm in there, and people are so fired up, and I know that people like in Core Secrets were like, you know, I've been working on this course for, like, four years and thinking about it, and I finally launched it, and I have clarity, and I can just make this simple framework, and it's off and running. So it's so exciting that I know the real mission for you was to not only think and grow rich, but think, take action, and grow rich. And giving them that vehicle with Core Secrets is. Is the key. So, so excited to see everyone who's taking advantage of that.

Me too. Been awesome.

All right, well, Danny got some, some.

Big, some big plans with all the winners though. Like we were talking offline before we got here. I'm excited to. For those of you guys who are the top 10, it's going to be insane. We're going to have so much fun anyway.

Absolutely.

This is, this is so exciting. Right? And live from all around the world bringing this to everybody in the group. We do have the top 20 loaded in and I know Justin sent me this handwritten list. Russell with like, I'm trying to decipher this thing for the last two hours. Hopefully we get everybody's names right. Justin's got the list there as well. I'm gonna put the banners on the screen and I guess we're gonna go straight in at number 20, right, and congratulate everybody. So if your name's on this, this first section, top 20. But then we'll get into the top 10. And. And that's what Russell was talking to just then. We've got some amazing stuff lined up. Right. So are we ready?

Folks, you wrote the infamous Sharon Lechner from now on. She's too cool.

Absolutely infamous. And she had such a cool story, and dawn can help tell some of that story. She also spoke at the VIP session for the Thick and Grow Rich challenge. She wrote or published, you know, outwitting the Devil, which is, like, Russell's favorite book. And, yeah, she's so cool. So, you know, we might have to figure out a way to shoehorn shoehorn her in one way or the other, even if she's just a speaker at the. At the, you know, Napoleon Hill mastermind out there in West Virginia. Jesus. So, yeah, and I didn't know. Russell told me. Of course he knows this stuff. Like Outwitting the devil sold like 40 million copies.

Isn't that what you said something crazy, dawn?

For sure.

But yeah, I think it was like a couple million in Brazil. Couple million in, like every country. Like, it blew up. So it's like one of the best ever.

So awesome. If you haven't have haven't read it, go read it. I'm an audible person, so listen to.

The audiobook's the best, though, because you get. You get the Devil and Napoleon Hill, like, battling two different voices. It's so good.

Yeah. Someone said on the challenge, which was funny. Don't listen to it at night. Anyways, thank you, Sharon, so much. We'll be reaching out and talking and hopefully you can join us as well and just tell more stories and such an cool thing that you did without winning the Devil.

So, dude, I'm stoked we get to hang out in wise Virginia together.

Yeah. Such a. An honor, really, and humbled to be on this. On this leaderboard and everything that you guys have done for the whole community. You know, all the. The hard work that's gone in behind the scenes, man, I can't wait. It's a pleasure. And I still got more to come, right? So this is super exciting. You ready for the next one?

Yeah. It's like Christmas morning. Going to Napoleon Hill foundation and the mastermind and the college, and it's just gonna end. The leaves are gonna be changing color.

So exciting.

We go there. It's awesome. All right, who's next?

Let's go.

Ah, it's Mark Joyner. Mark Joyner.

Mark is my first mentor, you guys. I love Mark, and he messaged me, like, the day before challenges. He's like, do you have anything cool to promote? I'm like, the thinking nerds challenge. He's like, I'm in.

Let's go.

And then started running.

So I love Mark.

He's. I would not be where I am today without Mark Joyner. So I'm grateful for him jumping in and playing.

He was all about build the list. If you heard Russell's story, like, when everything there was shiny object syndrome going on, and Mark was state of the list. Stay the list, stay the list. And, yeah, he got in very, very late. He reached out to me as well, and he's like, so what do you think? If I was going to promote one thing, one time, this was like, two days or whatever it was before I go dude, your timing couldn't be any better. We got the grow rich challenge. So he just knocked it out of the park. Came in late and showed the power of building your email list out there. So, so going to be so much fun. Hope you can join us. I know he's overseas. He's either in Vietnam or Philippines. He's always in some Pacific, you know, beautiful location, tropical. So hopefully he can join us here stateside. And congratulations, Mark, and thanks for all the support and, and mentoring Russell who mentored so many of us and just so cool to have you a part of this.

Ready? Next one.

Let's go.

Let's go.

So cool. Like Doug, he was, he won the last contest and we got to have some pizza, hang out and, and chat and he got to go to the archives for the Poland for Nightingale Conant. And Doug's like, he's like this like sneaky, sly, like he builds this all list and he just crushes it. Like has these incredible conversion rates. He builds this real small. I mean he's the one that shows like quality over quantity. And he builds a very, very, you know, engaged, like a list of like 5,000 people, an engaged community of people. And so when he brings these offers and he loves Russell and has been in the mastermind, he's just an awesome dude. His people get it and they sign up. And so Doug had some, a lot of stuff going on. So at the last second he was like, you know, I'm not in the top 10. So he just like pushed really, really hard these last couple days. And he got in there because he knows how cool it is to get in the room, to get in these masterminds. So we're so happy to have you, Doug and I can't wait to see you out there in Wise, Virginia.

Right into the, the top five.

Right?

Let's go.

All right, so Lana is another inside job at. Hey, it is what it is. Lana works with the Napoleon Hill Foundation. She gets to be in the room as well. So she's going to be down there. She's the, she runs all the social media and she's an amazing woman for the Napoleon Hill Foundation. So she's kind of the right hand woman for dawn and really does a lot of the magic that you see online. So it's going to be so cool to hang out with her. I haven't met her in the physical world, so I'm excited to give her a big hug and learn more about her, her story and you know, she's really instrumental in making the Napoleon Hill foundation tick. So it'll be fun to hang out with her. So congratulations, Lana. Thank you so much for promoting us. And I'm going to be reaching out soon because we got something else for you coming real soon. So anyways, thanks so much. Thanks, Lana. All right, who's next?

Right, next one.

Number four, Sonia. Now, she's a. She's like a rock star. Like, she spoke at the Think Grow Rich challenge, and she knows everybody. She comes from the Bob Proctor world, and. And she knows everybody in the industry and she knows everybody in personal development. She just kind of got started late, and so she's going to be a. She's an amazing supporter for us. She loves us. She loves what we're about. She loves Russell. So I'll let you speak a little bit more about her, too. I know you know Sonia, she's awesome.

Yeah, she's amazing. We met a decade and a half ago in an event and we're talking about webinars. And then she took that webinar she created and blew it up. And, you know, she's got her own documentaries and movies and course, she's amazing. So just pumped to reconnect with her and hang out with her again, and it's gonna be fun to. Last time I saw her, actually, was me, her, and a group of 10 affiliates at Tony Robbins Mastermind hanging out Tony Robbins. So it'd be fun to reconnect with her now and hopefully she has a chance to come out to Wise Virginia with us.

Yeah, that'll be awesome. I know she's up north in Canada, so hopefully she could make it out there that Virginia. And she's got that, like, relationship thing, like adora, and she's the one that can really use that second tier, 10%. So, again, for those of you out there that want to get your name on here, if all you sometimes have to do is know somebody that has a big list or know somebody who's an influencer and you could reach out to me and I'll be happy to hop on the phone with you and them and talk about how exciting and how amazing this promotion is. But that's what Sonia is. She's awesome. She really pushed hard for us. So thank you so much. We'll see you in Wise Virginia. All right, who's up next?

Right.

Number three, Dr. Joe.

Mr. Fire. I know Russell's got a cool story because, like, Dr. Joe was one of the first people that actually promoted one of Russell's products, like, what, 20 years ago?

Yeah, yeah. Joe's Joe's amazing. I recently bought his entire library. So I have, you know, probably 10,000 books from Joe's library, my library now. And he's just amazing and such a great supporter of the cause and everything we're doing and.

Yeah.

So thank you, Joe, once again for being part of this and promoting so hard. We love it. Love you.

Yeah. And he spoke at the Thing Grow Rich Challenge, and I was listening to the Greatest Showman last night. My daughter's been singing A Million Dreams or. And. And it's like he had all of the P.T. barnum stuff. So Russell's got a lot of really cool P.T. barnum, like P.T. barnum's like, you know, time pocket watch and all that kind of stuff too. So Dr. Joe's has got some serious bibliomania pumping through his bloods as well. So congratulations, Dr. Joe. And Chuck Pennington, his right hand man. We look forward to seeing you if you guys can make it out to Wise Virginia. So we got two left. Let's go. Looks like number two, Jason showing. All right, perfect. So Jason, again, these, some of you guys, you're competing with big time publishers. So to make this top 20 is impressive. Jason actually works with Nightingale Conant. They, they fell in love so much with what we did when we went out to Chicago. They just wanted to get behind us and support us. And so they did and they knocked it out of the park. I mean, they had massive sales, massive signups, and they're just so excited and so open to figure out how, you know, and they're also blown away. Russell put a presentation together. I don't know. I think you can see that at There's a Night and there's secrets. What is it? The strangest secret. We had a dramatic demonstration on that. So you might be able to see some of that there. Or I don't know if Russell gave that presentation, you might have to be in the room to see it. But Russell gave a presentation about the funnel and how to build it and how to do it. And I think they were just. Their jaws just dropped. And so now they're a part of the team, part of the family, partners in this journey. And they promoted like crazy. So thank you, Jason. Thank you, Vic. Thank you, everybody out there at Nightingale Conant for pushing so hard and getting the word out about the thinking Grow Ridge Challenge.

The number one promoter.

Number one. He's awesome. Like Sean, he was like, he's. The first time he ever put him to anything in his life was when Secret to Success launched last year. Six months ago. And now he knocked it out of the park. I mean, he was running ads. His audience is like 200,000. And he's like, he's got a podcast, thinking big podcast. And he's just like, he's all in, like. And he worked so hard for this and so just awesome. What a. What an amazing job, Sean. And I know he's going to be a partner and a part of this journey for years to come. So congratulations, brother. You did it. You won. Because his big competition was he was like, I'm going to beat Doug. Doug won the last one. So congratulations on show. So excited for your brother. You did it.

Well done. Well done.

All right, well, that's it.

Yeah. Real quick. I want to just. I actually live in like two minutes to the entire clickfunnels groups. I'm gonna have to bounce here a second. I just want to thank all of the affiliates and everyone promote and be part of the ingredients challenge for being part of this and jumping all in. And thank you, Justin and Danny for all your help as well. And just it was so much fun. I can't wait to do this all again. And. And we've almost got the the Thinkers challenge evergreen. So it's something you guys can continue to promote long term. Put in the back of your funnels. Working on like just a webinar version. There'll be shorter form version. A whole bunch of cool things are happening. So just grateful for you guys promoting and we'll have more cool opportunities for you in the near future. More cool prizes and cool stuff too. So I just want to thank you guys. I know you got more special guests coming. You're doing some more cool stuff, but I just wanted to say that real quick because I got to jump because there's like 2,000 people. I'm supposed to be live on in like two minutes, so I'm going to jump off.

Awesome.

Thanks so much.

Have a great life.

Thanks for hopping in, Russell. Have fun out there. Going live all day today. Keep your voice.

Thanks, guys.

All right, take care. Thanks, Russell.

Bye. Bye. Bye.

All right, well, how cool was that? So congratulations to the top 20. Congratulations to the top 10. We'll be reaching out and we'll. I'll talk to you about some of the details. We haven't quite penciled it in yet as far as what the dates are, but we're kind of thinking Fallish 2024 coming up. So after the summer and all the wildness. So. Hey there, Sean over there. What's going on, brother? Congratulations. I know you put in the work. He was running paid ads with some of the same, you know, pictures and things like that from the swipe files from the marketing materials tab in your affiliate dashboard. And it worked. And I was actually talking to John Parks who runs the all of the paid ads for Russell for the multiple companies including Secrets of Success. And he was like seeing our ad, seeing like someone else is running the same things I'm running and so it was awesome. So, so excited. Sean went all in and that's what happens. He went all in. When you go all in you can win. And he done an affiliate contest before until Secrets of Success. So for those of you that are making excuses or self limiting beliefs it could be you next. It's just a matter of, of, of of going all in.

Gotta go, gotta go. Right Sean, Amazing. Everybody on the leaderboard and and to be on there as well myself, I was like oh man, this is awesome. Big thanks to Russell for joining us. But there's more. Justin, right?

Yes. We have a super, super special secret surprise guest too that we want to bring on stage. So let's bring them on. Look, it is, it's Don Green. Don Green, the head of the Napoleon Hill foundation out there in Wise Virginia who's so gracious, I always call him generosity personified hashtag. And he's going to be helping us and hosting us out there for the Think and Grow Rich Napoleon Hill mastermind in Wise Virginia. So how you doing Don?

It's been great. I just enjoyed listening. Of course I think I got them all down but there's so many of them. But I know you know from past like Sharon Lecter, I love working with Sharon. We did think great for women. She did the Devil book and promoted it and I've worked with her for a long, long time. She's been here and spoke to the students just she does such a wonderful job in the finance industry of using that pay yourself first sits on the financial literacy board. She's done so much and of course I work Alana for years and Adora, we go back 20 some years and so many of these people and I want to become friends of every one of them and anxious to meet them like Danny and of course I met Joe Fatali at the Russell's groundbreaking thing and I'll be with him 21 June I guess up in New York. So this is great and I tell people this is really, it should be really a treat for people come to the archives because I've told the people that I work With I never work for. Nobody's ever worked for me. I work with them. That we are here for people who are serious. We are not here for people who are curious. We're not open to the public. You would. I've had people drive from Florida, knock on the door and want to come in and tour the place. Don't want to be rude to them. But we don't have Russell schedule. But we do have a tight schedule that we're working on and, and we just can't give up a day of interruptions and keep things going that we want to want to want to do. So it's, it's going to be great. I mean, you know, though, they're going to see so much stuff that they've. That they've never, never seen before.

Oh, yeah.

Books of he'll sign. They've got stacks and stacks of them. It's never circulated that he signed. I've got everything from his eyeglasses to his Parker pen, which we might let him get Russell to write it up. Write in a book for. In the famous green ink that Hill was known for. And the list is on and on. I've got his ruler, his cowboy hat, you. His marriage licenses, all his honorary doctorate degrees. Just, just, just files and files and notebooks and notebooks of material that you could spend. You could spend a lot, a lot of time going through them, especially if you're a follower of Napoleon, Neal, your follower of Russell. And we always love the stories of people like Russell and people who's read, they can grow rich and their success stories and we love those stories. And we hear some, we hear some every week and just on and on. That one, one little boy was 15 years old, got a hold of it and from a real rough background. Recent graduate of Harvard. I mean, you know, we just, we just, we just love hearing those stories.

Absolutely.

Well.

And I know before we went live, Russell was on with us and you and, and he's like, I'm coming out a couple days early because I'm going to go through some of those boxes with you, dawn, because there's so much stuff out there. And, and Don, you know, he's just been amazing. He's helped so much with the, the museum and the library, and he was there for the groundbreaking and of course he'll be there when we. We do the grand opening, hopefully next summer. And everything's on schedule, believe it or not, which is crazy. So, you know, Don has just been an incredible partner and he's always sending these little, little Packages and gifts with these, like incredible archives and things, you know, treasures and, you know, it's like Christmas morning every time Russell gets something from dawn and he stops whatever he's doing and like middle of a live stream, he'll go run off and, you know, there's a package from Don. So, you know, Don's just been absolutely amazing and he truly is generosity personified. He sends books out to people. For those of you that were live with the Napoleon Hill with Didn't Grow Rich challenge, Russell even made a commitment that he's going to start sending out books because he was inspired by Don. Don has sent me personally dozens, if not hundreds of books and probably hundreds, if not thousands of books to Russell. And he's just the greatest guy ever. So for those of you that get to be out there in West Virginia, you're going to meet a true Southern gentleman who just absolutely is the coolest dude on the planet. And I'm excited to hang out with Don again and for everyone to meet him.

So exciting, so cool and a pleasure. What a great show we've had. And I guess we will be wrapping this up very soon. But I guess before we do with with Don here, it'd be good just to hear maybe a little story, a little teaser, something from Don just to close us out for the show, give us a little bit of a something.

Awesome.

You might want to share.

It's gonna be a lot of fun. We look forward to it. And, and I know that people are going to leave with a feeling that they will enjoy something until they'll occur with them because a, I truly believe we was put here to help and to encourage one another and that's what we'll keep doing.

Absolutely. And for those of that little Easter egg that you didn't quite get or maybe didn't pick up on, Napoleon Hill had a Parker pen. And then you see him on the videos, he's always twirling with a pen and he would be. He was famous for signing books and things in a green ink. Napoleon Hill and the actual pen that Napoleon Hill used, this Parker pen, Don found and was able to find the right ink to match the same ink that Napoleon used. So for those of you that are coming out with us in Wise Virginia, there's a very good chance that we'll be using that same pen and Russell will be signing some books in the green pen that Napoleon Hill used. It's not a green pen. Is it a gold pen? I assumed just green ink. Right, Don?

It's an orange colored Parker Pit. See, he. He taught Parker, George Parker, the founder of the Parker Pits, he taught his employees the principles of thick and grow rich. So that's it. That's how it came about.

Well, another cool thing too, that I've learned so much. Like one of the books that we got when we first met at one of the auctions was $15,000 book. That first sign, first edition, signed by Napoleon Hill and W. Clement Stone. I believe the Positive Mental attitude power of the Positive Mental Attitude book is that I've learned so much about W. Clement Stone. And I know that Napoleon Hill foundation was started in part by W. Clement Stone. And so all of W. Clement Stone's works and manuscripts and pens and buttons and videos, all of that's out there as well. So for those of you that are the do it Now, W. Clement Stone fans out there, you get an extra bonus because all of his goodies are out there as well. And I know, like you said, don't. You haven't even gotten through probably half the stuff that W. Clement Stone has out there, right?

We got a big frame picture of Ronald Reagan in the White House and with Clemson. And he said to my friend Clem and Ronald Reagan, nobody called him clown except Ronald Reagan, we always called him. You'll see a letter on the wall that he welcomed me into the Napoleon Hill Foundation. And listen, I didn't need that position being on the board as a bank president. President. I don't mean to boast president, Chamber of commerce, serving on the board of University of Virginia and on and on and on and. But I thought it was an honor to be asked to sit on the board of Napoleon Hill Foundation. And I talked about that sometimes our opportunity don't present it. But who said, your ship don't come in. You can't swim out where it is. I wrote the foundation in Chicago and told them things that I'd done in behalf of Napoleon Hill. I reckon a historical marker which you'll be able to see. He's the only author in the state of Virginia recognized by the state of Virginia with a historical marker. I had that erected in 1998. And they. I wrote them and they invited me to come have dinner in Chicago. And I flew up there and I couldn't wait to meet Mr. Stone and the other. Other board members. And they. He finally said, wes, boy, you know more about these books than I do a board member. And I said, what I need to do, Mr. Stone? And he said, you tend the meetings to keep up with him. We'll pay his Expenses. It's a non paying position but we'll pay you expenses to travel and so when we had a chance to sell the bank where I was a president for 18 years, I already had this lined up. They told me my, the other director trustee was in bad health, would like to retire. And so we got a chance to sell the bank at the right time. And so now I've been doing this 24 years. They have 16 books. My assistant who came here when he was 14 years old, Zane, he's now 26, he says, Barney told me we had 120 some odd books. So we've done over 100 books in the past 24 years.

And we'll keep absolutely crazy.

We'll keep on doing them.

It's so crazy and I'm so excited like because I've been there a few times now and had had the honor to be at the Napoleon Hill Foundation. He's like, you can see the glasses that like Napoleon Hill wore and there's a golden ruler and there's like the hat. You can sit at actually Napoleon Hill's desk. So for those of you personal development fans and for those of you Napoleon Hill fans, this is, this is like Graceland for Elvis. So. So you're going to be able to be able to walk in the footsteps of Napoleon Hill and greatness and the greatest people in Napoleon Hill's world, of course, with Don Green, Dr. J.B. hill, the grandson. So just an honor to, to do this. And of course, you know, Russell was like, hey, wouldn't it be cool if we had a mastermind in Wise Virginia for the Think Grow Rich challenge JV affiliate contest? And I said yeah, it would be pretty cool. So I reached out to Don and immediately Don was like, yes, let's do it. Like completely. He's like an improv person. Yes. And he's always positive, always ready, like you know, taking action, moving forward. Let's go for it. Let's do it. Let's give it a shot. And so he was, he's going to be hosting us out there and the college out there at, at Wise Virginia. It's actually the University of Virginia at Wise. So which. Such an honor, Don, it's, it's an honor to call you a friend, a partner. You've, you've meant the world to us in this, in this movement. Secrets of Success and the library and the museum and everything. So just. And I'm honored that we get to kind of glorify you a little bit and, and introduce you to some really cool People and have some fun out there in Wise, Virginia, if it's possible.

I would like to have the email address of. I've got a good portion. Be nice to have the email address of all these people and I will welcome them, so.

Absolutely. And we'll even try to get a mailing address for you because I know you Don. You're going to end up sending them some really cool books because that's just in your nature and it's one of the coolest things ever and what a legacy that is to do. Like I said, Russell's following in your footsteps and starting to send out books because you inspired him, because you do so much of that.

We see they'll get them. If you'll get me the email address, which I'll put in my contacts and mail address, that'd be wonderful.

Absolutely. We'll. We'll certainly do that. One last little story before we go. How did you get into sending the books? I remember, I remember the story, but I love that story about how did you get into starting to send people books?

How did I get started? Just, just, you know, people contact me and, and, and of course I got a little card on my table where I eat my oatmeal, says, God, show me someone I can help today in Jesus name. Amen. So before I leave here today, I'm thinking if I've done anything today, if I send anybody a book and I'll look at my contacts or whatever or see notes on my desk and I'll. Yesterday I, I sent out two to two young African Americans who done some labor for a guy. He said, he talked about think and grow rich and said they were so anxious and all. And he said if you're, if you sent them each book and write a note in it, he said, I'll stick a check in the mail to you. And he gave me two young people and I wrote in there and hey, this book can change your life as it has mine and millions of others. And so, and two young guys out, you know, I hope that they'll take it and do something other with it.

Absolutely. It's so cool. And you've sent me so many and you've signed the books and you know, like I said, Don is absolutely generosity personified. Nicest, coolest southern gentleman you'll ever meet. We've got to become close friends. And, and those of you that get the invite out to Wise Virginia, you get to meet Don and hang out with him as well. And if you, even if you didn't get a Chance, you know, befriend Don, you know, you know, connect on Facebook or whatever. He's just the greatest guy. He's got the greatest stories, and we're just so excited, and he's so, you know, generous to allow us to come out to Wise Virginia and host this Mastermind out there. So thank you, Don, so much. I know you got a lot to do out there, and, yeah, thank all of you.

It shouldn't be this much fun. Had it.

That's right. It ain't. They say if you don't want to. Well, you know, you don't work another day in your life if you love what you do. And we both. We both laugh about that.

Okay.

All right, well, thanks so much, Dawn. We will see you soon. I'll get you some emails and addresses for people out there that are joining us for the Mastermind in Wives Virginia. And we look forward to seeing you after the summer and hanging out. And we'll get you more, you know, details as well, because, you know, you probably want to know when we're coming, and so do we.

I'll get a few out each day. Thank you very much.

All right, thanks, Don. And we'll talk soon. All right, here we go. That's. That's it. That's the big news. We'll post the top 20 in the Facebook group. I saw a couple people asking about it, and just congratulations for everybody who worked so hard and. And again, bro Rich, there it is. There it is. Take a picture. I'll snapshot that baby.

And. And look, Jason, I have to apologize. Justin's writing was being deciphered with. Yeah, like, I couldn't. I didn't have time to change. It was two minutes out, and I'm like, dude, I've got your surname wrong. But we know which Jason it is, right? So, yes, yes, we appreciate everybody. And big congrats to everybody there from 20 all the way through. And big thank you to everybody else who promoted Justin. Right. Because it's been. Oh, man. How many months have we been doing this now?

This is like, sometimes it feels like it's seven years, but it's only been about seven months since last year.

Are we one yet? Yeah, we're not. We're not even one yet. Right. So it's like one year. All this stuff has happened in such a short period of time. Amazing. Big thanks to. To Don Green for joining us. Russell Brunson joining us. And if you've just joined us live right now, go back and watch the replay right from the beginning. You'll see the countdown. You see the little stories and, and all of the, all of the winners, all of the, the people on the leaderboard all being welcomed and, and recognized for everything they've done. This has just been a pleasure to be part of this dude. And it's like man, seven months and.

And you're in, you're in Virginia with us. So that's going to be so much fun. Hang out in wise there's a little in as soon as we figure out what date we're going out there, maybe September, maybe October, we'll, we'll book this little, this little inn. They only have like one hotel and it's a nice little hotel and so charming and those kinds of things. So it's going to be so much fun. And you guys heard the Easter egg like Russell keeps beating me to the punch. So he, he said it. We are going to go evergreen on think Grow rich challenge the plan. And now this is, you know, this is in pencil but the hopeful plan is that we're gonna, it's gonna happen next week, maybe as early as Monday. So that's the plan. So stay tuned. As soon as it's official, as soon as it's live, you'll be hearing from me. I'll be reaching out. So. And for those of you that don't know what Evergreen means, Evergreen means it's gonna feel live every time someone goes to it. Parts of it probably will be live but it'll definitely be the plan. Last I heard and plans do change. That's why we use pencils around here. Old number twos is is that it'll be a weekly challenge from now until the cows come home. So for those of you that missed out on the first one, this and I've heard from inside of of Russell's team like this might go down as the greatest challenge Russell's ever done ever in any challenge in his entire 20 year career. So we're bringing it back hopefully on a weekly basis and so it be there of course will be an opportunity for you to promote it. Russell and his team are putting together the best streamlined version of it to make it as crazy cool as possible. So for those of you that missed out on the first one, don't worry, we're going to have a thing grow Rich challenge Evergreen coming and it's something that you might could be be promoting for the next 12, 18 months, who knows. And it could have a massive impact. We had at least 35,000 people sign up last time. That number is probably much higher than that. That was the last number I saw. So let's get that thing to 100,000 and we could probably do that in a couple weeks. So that's coming up next. So that's what's happening in the future. Anything else? Danny, I don't want to keep you from catching those giant fish out there in the uk.
