Sorry, it's another car one. I know everybody hates these, but just stuck in the parking lot waiting for my daughter to come out after sports, so I thought I'd do a quick one and just talk about, uh, Michael. Awesome guy over at Rebel— the Rebel Rebel Podcast. Sat down with him a little while ago and the episode just went live talking about hemp-derived CBD, why I got into this, what we stand for here at Kyoto Botanicals. Talked my background from biology to, to brand marketing to how I got into hemp and why I started Kyoto Botanicals and what I'm hoping to bring to everybody. So if you've never listened to Michael's podcast, the Rebel Rebel Podcast, it's really awesome. He's a super great host, super chill guy, really smart, does a good job of, uh, leading conversations. So head over to, to their YouTube page or to his webpage and check it out. I will, uh, drop an ad in the, in the comments as well so you all can go see it.
