Episode notes

i was in no way qualified to analyze businesses. And i would not have, i probly wouln't have started the show or or certainly had the idea for it if it was to tell these comprehensive company stories and analyze them. It's interesting to do something that's so different. I don't knownow i'd make all this stuff up. Guy, as you've seen from my twitter handle, there's not a lot of oversight around around what's, what's going onin my world. Ye make sense, right?
