Episode notes

I'm waiting for these to become worth more than the organic ones ripped out of the earth, like the actual quote unquote real ones and they'll be better. Just like I'm waiting for an impossible burger that tastes better than a beef burger. But this is another flippening, which is young people are going to really enjoy getting these because they care. So good on, good on these folks. Can't wait to hear the interview.
