TRANSCRIPT · AUTO-GENERATED

It's the daily talk show episode 875 what is happening wrong? So what's going on happy hump day to everyone around the world was just listening to a hump day replay with a georgie boy special guest Radio Mike it's a good episode. Well, I saw the sorry get pushed into my fingers That's what happens when you subscribe Yeah, yeah, wherever you wherever you like to take it get it get it good I saw the the title of it mental health mental health. Yeah big focus at the moment around mental health I mean at the moment in Victoria.

We're still in lockdown and it's it's a bizarre thing I was messaging Stacey June last night who has been on our show many times my co-host from my ship days She's making the move down to Melbourne. She's exciting. She heard them. Oh, I know but I was just at the point bringing that up He's like it made me sort of think about Coming dead like what have I feel like I said I said I feel like we've done quite well like because I don't know But our business has grown.

I feel like I've left the fucking house though. Yeah, like legit It's a weird thing how the the feeling of success or feeling of growth usually comes with a by-product of like being out there Seeing more people but for this it's like challenge that internal feeling of what things can feel like when you are expanding But you're not actually Geographically moving at all don't you feel though that like part of it is I feel if I can deal with this The outside stuff will feel so good like when we can do all those things. Yeah. Yeah, I mean I was thinking Speaking of ship, you know, I like to talk about my time in Shepherd.

Yeah, you're in radio. I said yeah Yeah, it's on radio two years five shows five shows a week every single day six to nine No, but I was I actually messaged my old boss and I said to him I said to him move houses living up higher makes it sound like I'm up in the fucking mountains But I'm just in Berlin at the sort of you know, you can either leave it sort of on top of the hill at the bottom of the hill Anyway, I can pick up the signal. I was telling you this I can pick up a signal to Shepherd and but when I turned it on the other day I heard his voice and I heard the memories flood back I had the memories to flood back in after hearing the boss's voice like I was back on such great times It was just doing a 30-second read live read for SCA and But I was thinking about that time being one of the one of the times probably other than now where I've been really Uncomfortable in my life as a as an adult in a career And so you know because you find a sort of rhythm But I think the lockdown has probably got people very uncomfortable and challenge them more than any other time in their adult life And so you're right coming out the other side It's not to say that there won't be other challenges. I think they will be like an adaption back into something Yeah, something else some other existence.

So when have you been most comfortable in your life, then? Yeah, I mean, I was pretty restless as a young kid like there was a lot of frustration in me Especially coming out within the school years, you know, you don't want to be there Not every kid wants to be there. I was one of those kids that definitely didn't want to be there And so leaving school when I was 17 There was some weight lifted off my shoulders that felt very good But then I was into that discovery period trying to make it trying to work out what I'm doing I land on personal training did that for a look quite some time and I still felt frustrated like I hadn't worked it out So it's probably I'm probably ever being comfortable. I guess that's the question is like we can trick ourselves into thinking that yeah There was some time that it was easier or you felt better.

Well, what is comfortable? Let's talk about what come what someone who would articulate. I'm quite comfortable usually it's just relating to money, right? Yeah, I think there's an element of Comfortable in knowing that like comfortable.

I don't think is being idle I think comfortable is feeling like you have a purpose that you're moving forward, but it doesn't necessarily stress You it doesn't keep you up at night. You can go to sleep knowing that you had a good a great day's work But it doesn't necessarily have that residual effect where you're stressing about the following day. Maybe yeah Yeah, I mean it is a funny descriptive word like comfortable sitting on a couch and and you so it actually can be moments of comfort versus an existence of comfortability how we say so it's like I definitely have moments where you like and you're right It's like if you're working on yourself internally, you can have a heap of these moments where you're not feeling and so speaking to me that level of frustration I had growing up I definitely don't have that as much anymore when you start having like you said discovering purpose and and things seem to be working But then the sort of traits that come up that drive you forward are negative ones, but drive you forward I just wrote down before listening to a podcast about narcissism. I was just thinking about the negative podcast Joe Rogan What I just see is you know, I sound a bit more sort of than I listen outside of my bubble I mean that guy has some of the best and smartest people on these podcasts interesting chat about narcissism I mean as a couple where are we a narcissist based on what they're saying.

Well, narcissists usually have a like There's three areas of narcissist narcissism like this this is a person this is the the Narcissist that lives in his basement that actually has a high High worth on themselves that they think they should be heard They're not and so it can slip into quite some depression Yeah We have you know the narcissist that he's actually front and center thinking what they have to say is very important and people need a Fucking listen to them. So what's the third version? I can't remember but that's why this is a hook, you know, okay Are we really having to do life? It's not about Joe Rogan.

Yeah, it's got it's got to that fucking place at the moment for him poor guy He fucked it with a studio I quite like that. No, but I was thinking about so the person who is disagreeable in a workplace or in a work environment usually is someone who gets ahead and so men traditionally are disagreeable and Disagree but the trade of this is someone who is disagreeable. They make more money and so when you think about it like that It's like the metric of success for a lot of people speaking broadly is financial and so it's you know, it plays that status role It's like a you know, it's proxy status at that point So and there's a little comfort that comes from having money you could say but it's like these traits are quite negative For the human experience But they drive you forward in success They bring success if you haven't defined, you know, the antidote to it is define what the success is for you And then maybe you can count to some of these traits that are just in you and you won't act on them But there are some stuff that's negative that is natural but but they're not good for us to act on and so when you said Why do you think you're uncomfortable at the moment? Oh, I don't think I'm uncomfortable Actually said I'm the most uncomfortable.

I've this is the second time in my life. Sorry. Sorry. Sorry.

Sorry. I'm sorry. No, I'll define it Because yeah, I was trying that's funny because I was thinking like in this moment. I don't feel that uncomfortable Challenge so challenge meaning having to sort of dig like shep in them for me was Confronting because I had done all these things.

It's so much new stuff And so you and I are navigating a whole bunch of new stuff, which is uncomfortable doesn't mean it's bad But it is like, you know a time where it's you're doing it from your house or you're about becoming a new dad was that not more uncomfortable? Yeah, yeah, that was another time of feeling like I'm doing stuff I've never done before out of depth vibes But I wonder where you have ever felt comfortable like I was because if you even think about when you were doing things that you would feel Comfortable doing now. So for instance like you talk about being on the red carpet for triple M doing voxies and how uncomfortable You felt that's like a pretty like a low-level job in a lot of like it's it's it's it's uncomfortable But it's not like you're saving lives or anything like that And so what so if you look at it all of those things you're stretching and feeling uncomfortable Yeah, is there a time where you have felt comfortable and felt fulfilled? No, because I don't think I I think the fulfillment has left when I started to feel Comfortable because you could be like, you know roll.

It's just cruising. Mm-hmm, but then you're like it's it's a trade of mind to then be like Well, what's next? Yeah, I need to do something different or challenging like It's a weird one because we're like it's almost like yes We're suckers for pain because you want to feel like you're at capacity like it feels like you want to yeah Like I think about the times where I've lived and really like, you know being really proud of myself It's in times where I have been uncomfortable But I even look at those times with the rose colored glasses And I think about the travel that I did within Vato where it's three months not seeing brie filming every single day 34 flights Like I look at that with fond memories, but it was very uncomfortable. Yeah as well like it was uncomfortable at the time But I but I also Enjoyed it.

I don't know but I think that's definitely comfortability potentially moves up like when we look back We forget the uncomfortable bit or we reference where we are now and apply our Emotional abilities or whatever to that thing like oh that would be it's like VCE like when you're in school in U12 Or whatever Do you know what you do a year 11 or just half of a Level so you're speaking my language here 11 year 11. Let's just say you 10. Okay, just made it You know yeah, we you know when you're in your tenant feel stressful But then as a 30-year-old I do have moments where I'm like I'd be able to absolutely smash You 10 or you 12 now your grape is now watermelon You know your your capacity is grown. I'm a great is the brain is always saying well kind of kind of it's just it could be a capacity You've gone from scrapes to watermelon.

So there is the emotional capacity So that mental cognitive capacity all of it and so it's like starting to believe things that how weird is like shifting? What you believe like actually having looking at who you were as a kid and you didn't even have the capacity for what you do Now or what you even understand and that only came with living all of those Uncomfortable moments and it's a it's a weird existence my friend It's like I look at Bodhi and I think about his little baby brain and just you know being a kid like You know struggling to get the sleep. It's like he's struggling to turn his little brain off like to just to slow it down Yeah, what's he thinking about? I don't know I sometimes I'm asking what you thinking about usually I asked him when he wakes up What did you dream about always is aliens?

No, he said aliens for you for like literally you said that he was making up dreams for a while Yeah, but I like to think that imagine if I like to think that the kid like from birth They have these memories of aliens, but as you get older you forget at all Do you think that part of it is like um So I think about me at 30 and so much of what I'm doing is what I projected myself to do when I was 14 or 15 Like I really feel that I'm executing on a dream that I had many many years ago So like for me, you know 2005 listening to podcast saying people doing, you know multiple shows like I'm doing the thing that I dreamt of doing Do you think that there's a different experience? Because I'm in that because I'm like have this vision that I'm going towards is there uncle is there an uncomfortable feeling for you Not necessarily because it's so in me and as much as I can communicate and say that this is what I think we should do It's yeah because it came from a direct like a thing that I really want and a dream that I've had since I was young Thank you for the coffee. Do you think that there is a better party or plan? Yeah, that's the dream living a little bit coffee.

Yeah. Yeah, I was actually going to make my coffee today But I bring one of the milky coffee. So yeah, does that resonate? Yeah, but yeah, no because I think that's unique to every person, right?

So You got to think about somebody who works for somebody else. You could say they're a part of say you work for Facebook That was a vision of my Zuckerberg's but the the you have to I mean what other ways is there looking at life other than where you are is Where you're meant to be or what you've been capable of doing in the time that you've got and and it's got you to where you are And so if you like that that is then being able to take ownership because if it's not a place that you want to be It's like all then there is a version of getting to where you want to be once you can define it And so it's not even a negative it's not even a negative thing Like I'm saying it's like but I wonder if like I feel very grateful that if you think about video production like finding it When I'm 12 years old and doing all this stuff like I feel so like you're your story, right? Which is everyone's like cuz then you think of yours. Yeah, that's why I'm saying so your story Yeah, your story didn't necessarily have that you're gonna be doing podcasts and shit like that and so yeah Which it's like from a young I never thought about that and I never thought that I'd be on radio And so then it's like how do these things come into fruition?

It's not it's not like I don't think it's just like that all of a sudden I turned around that was like hey Do you want to come be on radio and ship it's like definitely the Opportunities and so you're drawn to it But how much like how long is that thread like so if you look at say TV or presenting The TV presenting stuff. What was it for you? Like what was the the reason that you wanted to do TV presenting? Yeah, it's I can't I can't really articulate.

It was just like an internal thought of It's probably ego wanting to fucking be out there But then I probably had a like I was so fucking convinced like I was so convinced that I could do that And I was thinking about it only the other day about like how obsessed and focused I was on Creating some kind of success in that in that area which is what then How it played out it like clearly wasn't meant to be the presenting stuff like that shit died in the arse like You know even jules lumbed who was at the top of the presenting game was like this isn't gonna be around You gotta do like you don't make content. You gotta be the creator You can't rely on these networks and shit like and so then So it's like you could say you could say it all is like the pieces that are fitting the perfect puzzle for your life And and that by thinking that I wanted to do the presenting thing that led me to then picking up the camera That led me to being on radio where I was creating content and like my old boss He said to me, let me just read you. This is so fucking sweet like So this is my boss in shipping that I was texting with and I and um and I told him that I could hear his voice He said got to say man. I've been thinking a lot lately.

It was my time working with you that has set me on the new path I'm so grateful of our time together as challenging as it was and the plant and plenty of things I do better I learned so much from you and that was like I was I was like we got to create videos Like I was spending time outside of the show like creating the online content I he was fascinated by it getting into it and so it's like Yeah, it's it like your your your path affects Like there's like ricochet effects to other people's parts And so when you're thinking about your vision, it's like yeah All these visions are sort of colliding and the people around you are usually a result of what you've been focusing on what they've been focusing on It's this co-creation thing This is why I think that your video stuff is so powerful like if you look at the nandos video you did yesterday Or that was she's video that like they get so much more traction than anything else We do yeah on social media and you like doing it. Yeah And so it is this it is this sort of thing where it's like how do you untap Yeah, it's like trying to find every like it doesn't I think the thing that I'm very comfortable with and understand is it's like My obsession isn't everyone else's obsession and it shouldn't be and like within a team although your food is pretty Fuck we had a uber eight to leave it outside in the rain. Yes, like terrible anyway Yeah, no, so like is there if you look at the Obsession type of stuff like because there's a survival mode like I think that there is because we're doing so much there's overwhelming all that sort of thing Do you think that there's a A simpler version so if you look at the the success of the the video stuff you don't instagram where it's just doubling down on that and You know getting into that sort of obsessive state Well, here's the thing that I've learned about life is that when your sole focus is on So I always talk and I fucking like it's myself of the another thought based on what I'm saying So what I was going to say was the the pain that comes in Having to do a bunch of other stuff for what we do as a business And then the thing that I love like creating those videos It's like the pain on the side of needing to work out a bunch of other elements then drives this sort of I think it could be some juice from that that fuels the creativity for the for the fun videos that I love making So you take away from it or that it actually adds almost adds to it, but it's painful And so but I think that a lot of greatness comes out of pain And so when you say of like doubling down, it's like I forget about doing anything else that's like It's important and I just did this thing that I love like I think that that could be an illusion Where we're like, you know, how many creators have said I just want to make the videos that I want to make Like not be dictated by the brand or this shit All right, we need we need restrictions and we need like we need to know where we're playing like having a rule Like there's a reason why we have rule books because it makes it actually enables creativity if it's just you can do anything It's very very difficult, but then yeah, so doubling down maybe isn't the right word because It's not about at all at the cost of everything else, but it's about It's like focusing right like for us a version of doubling down is showing up every day Like I think that we we've completely reframed what doubling down means doubling down doesn't mean some crazy launch or you know So like it's um even in the uh the last dance they talk about it Um in the sorry for everyone who's already watched michael jordan's uh documentary jack post message and said tommy's right You are the last person to watch this um last guy I messaged i messaged uh jack about it. I said mate jordan needs lock laces because um uh jack's got lock laces i've got lock laces which are sort of um replacements for uh shoe laces and I couldn't do like the hardest thing that michael jordan does put put aside the The playing on the cord all that something if the fucking shoe laces before the game that would do my i would be Yeah, i'd lose my life.

He laces a shoe. He laces a shoe a new shoe every game I can do this. Yeah, but I think it's part of the part of the process So that's the part like i'm sure he fucking doesn't love the laces bit But he's probably thinking he's there just like plotting just thinking he's gonna just savage everyone on that feet in that course Also, what i was going to say is it's from a basketball perspective they talk about You're only like once you've done something good You sort of need to do it again and again and this sort of like i think that from a yeah when you think about what we do It isn't like i've there's been many times in my life where it's like oh, yeah I've done this doco and it's you know i've spent a bunch of time You know goodbye philippines went to the philippines filming fireworks doing all this stuff spent heaps of time editing it Launched it and then what and so part of it is like when I say double down It's like the thing that that where you can have a cadence to what you can be doing it every day or every week Yeah, exactly and and then and then it's like it's like how can you i mean i've said this how can you Limit the the lag between the idea and the execution the lag time between the idea and the execution and because yeah You can get caught up in just thinking about how it all makes sense and but you're right It's like the one thing is chipping away. It's the step challenge we're doing.

Yeah chipping away It's like i will win if i just fucking do it if you just do the steps exactly and this is the thing i think that part of it is It's destructive because all of us as creators we say You know you just need to double down or focus and it like we build it up to this impossible I think like it's extremely hard at that point. Well, yeah, because you're looking to the life You don't have and for a lot of creatives. It's uh, no other responsibility other than just doing the thing that they need to do And so they love doing and so that's where everyone's looking for I mean, it's the same in business like the fun how can I get funding to just forget about all the hard stuff But then the harder stuff the lacer is like it gets you gets you there There's a bunch of uh businesses that had uh angel investors vc's that got seed funding And they're you know five years in and they still haven't worked out how to to uh to uh to sell or have revenue and to And so the thing is when you don't have that you're actually making sure that you can uh ride without training wheels day one Which is which is helpful Um, uh, if you we're going from a balance bike to a normal bike. Yes, we're not doing the training wheel thing We're trying to do the modern day.

Exactly modern day training. Uh, we uh I think we spoke we spoke about on the show before the soda stream. There was a guy who um put wine In the soda stream and blew up his soda stream. It was actually a young kid.

It was like he's doing it for his parents Making them sparkling. So anyway, uh, I've been doing um, like obviously I had my uh, lacroi and mount franklin and all those different types of drinks and it would run out and so I was using Uh some fruit in the soda stream. Yeah, did you know that you can't have a piece of fruit In the bottle when you when you pump it No, I did not and what is what's the result? You had a blow up.

Yeah. Yeah, so I like you know, I didn't fill it up like I was like, oh, you know, I'm gonna give it a little bit I'm not gonna fill it up as high as I normally would to allow just in case, but when I took like I did it And it was like it was overflying whatever. That's okay. This isn't good, but it's fine And then when I pulled it out, I went and like just like sprayed everywhere.

Yeah. I cleaned it up before bring it home Do you think so what is it the acidity or some kind of reaction? I said bubbles in the not didn't look it up, but I just thought you should know that Um also a little updates Got a text message last night in seights all this morning from my bank $1,100 used on my credit card at the apple store Haven't we haven't Uh, this is uh, my put like a personal card Sorry, because any call to like our debit cards credit card sometimes because you saw it is an actual credit. It is a it's an actual credit It's so annoying for you, but it's okay because um It was like seamless the bank, uh, tech like it said press 2 Press 1 if this was you till if it wasn't I didn't say until the morning press 2 They said someone will call you in the next 60 minutes.

They call me Uh, they said hi yet. Did you do a purchase that nap? They said are these last ones Amazon blah blah blah these yours and like yep, they're mine And uh, a lot of soda water This is you Lots of places surely that's not an adult. Yeah.

Yeah, that's a scare. But interestingly, um Yes, it was a someone in India on the apple India website I don't know 100 bucks You could get a speck down apple watch or something so that was annoying so but I but it was very good They've um because brain. I have two cards Great thing is that it just shuts mine line off. They send out a new one.

Um, but there was that little update I mean last time that happened for a smaller amount like 80 bucks or something. I asked them. How is this possible? But I've got my card here.

How's it possible? So it's a different description. Yeah, because it's different so it happened with our business account with your card And debits more dangerous because that's why I still like to even will doing like ING um, you know buckets and stuff like that if we're doing stuff overseas or I'm like Let's not use our money because if you lose it, it's a real pain in the ass And so that happened to us with our business account. What was the deal?

Haven't got the money back. It's steady. Really? No, so that was like two months ago, wasn't it?

Yeah, but if you remember it was in the between the lockdowns and it was like I went in and they're like well It has to clear before we can work out anything like it has to actually go through And so still Could you put a claim or something like you have to feel out of it? Yeah, no, no, no, no It's literally we need needed to clear and then come back and then we got locked down and so when we go back in I mean it's it's almost this is the point people don't chase up 30 bucks. I'm almost like I don't know. Yeah, you canceled your car.

Yeah, I canceled the car new car. That's all good So, but then I'm like fucking I don't know. Maybe it's some one of us somehow through Amazon somewhere This imagine the bigger imagine the companies with hundreds of thousands of stuff with cards and so much money He's going floating around. It's it's there is something fun.

I remember um When I was a kid watching how to like I read for our work week and wanted a virtual assistant And there's some fun things that you can do where um I got a uh Visa debit card like a virtual one and my idea was that I would give the assistant or anyone who was working for me a card And they would have a certain budget every single week that they could spend on things I needed It was just a class of fuck and it was just costing me money. I could just do all my own things But um, there is something fun about that. I love the idea There's a few um, there's a few business banks that I've geeked out I'm trying to think of um one of the main ones, but they they make it really easy to create create multiple accounts and have cards So saves could have a card and you just like fill it up as needed. So you're sort of keeping a track, but oh, yeah, I love this shit I mean it is.

I mean back then it's very cut before horse. It's got to have the cash flow Yeah, I'm trying to think of the dumbest like sort of remote thing that I did like a virtual assistant or Yeah, definitely any task like yeah, yeah, I'm trying to think of what what there was Yeah, I was a transcription is a big one like an easy like I had someone the Philippines doing some transcription stuff But um, there's something fun about having like especially if you're like a young kid And you're a freelancer. I think it's a good. Do you know what?

If I had a kid Which I don't if I did and uh, they were he or she were uh, sort of 16 years old I would say okay. You aren't going to um, get a job. Obviously actually now cancel that you're gonna start a job You're gonna create a job for yourself. Let's register your business to all that sort of stuff But now what I want you to do is take so you're gonna say you're gonna save some money or whatever But I think the more important thing is Take 20 30% of what you make and you have to hire and delegate Someone remotely to do some of the things that you're doing because it's a freelancer You can fall into this trap of just doing everything yourself like there is a huge there is a massive massive massive difference It's between being a creative freelancer who's just working for themselves working on their own time and Collaboration and you know giving tasks other people like it's a massive They're both pain points.

So is it avoiding the pain? Like do you think you need to actually understand how to do it all before you get Someone else to do things for you. It's like well, I guess it's so that's where I um That's where I was just questioning myself on getting a job first So there is something in getting a job to sort of get the the joke that is business And then or you know Like there is when you work with a bunch of business like in different businesses. You understand that what's the cheese that has holes in it?

Now is jalzberg It's definitely the people who say yalzberg when they're I'm talking about this thing But it's like I heard this quote. They definitely didn't say yalzberg, but they said businesses are like yalzberg They it's the cheese that's got holes in the you know, but you can't see it So it looks all good from the outside, but every business doesn't matter what size is a yalzberg It's got all the holes. I've only ever bought yalzberg from the deli, which is pre sliced So I'm not sure that's where I see the whole so there's definitely has to be holes in in the alzberg And so anyway, uh, yeah, there is something in there's also the other version which is young people who have never worked at another place Trying to create their own business There is something nice about having a shit boss and a great boss and a you know everything in between She's a great colleague. So then you can be like, oh, this is what I want to create Yeah, yeah And I guess the part where your path leads you like if somehow you're you end up creating a business as a young person before you've had a job like That's okay.

That's okay. So like that is that's not for everyone. That's not the sort of Path that majority of people will take I wonder if sieves ever because sieves had a PayPal account I wonder if he ever so he had a server as a kid. I'm just gonna call him.

Let's see if he ever had Ever had to transfer money to anyone else through that process. I like it's like he's a business person Yo, g'day sieves you're on the daily talk show. What's happening? Oh, look not much We're just talking about like virtual assistance and and if I had a kid what I would get them to do in regards to Setting up a business and doing all that sort of thing when you were a kid and you were managing your servers Did you pay anyone?

Did you have any any contractors or did you have to share any of the cash? No sharing of the cash we had moderators on the Minecraft server who worked for free and they were probably I would have said they were probably like a solid 12 years older than me and Yeah, they would just be on all day moderating the chat and moderating the server and then we'd just hop on skype occasionally Maybe like once every few days and then catch up on what's been going on and And so what so we made so you know that it was a whip you don't do it now And so the how much money did you generate through that business as a kid? I was probably about 10 grand 10k and so you didn't have to you didn't have to pay any of them you were It was just that didn't pay sense. Okay.

Yeah, she owns the only thing was like at the very end when I was getting rid of it I gave it to them. I gave it to them. That's nice And and is it still going or why do you know it was quite selfish because they've ever had charge back And so there was a 60 day period where where you could charge back and leave it went part that I'll be safe So I was like I just hold on to it for six days So people had given money or whatever been like I love this server and you were saying okay I need to keep this thing running for at least 60 days. I don't care about making any more cash, but I just need to see this through Yeah Did you ever look at virtual assistance?

No, not really. I mean because there is like like five like five or and stuff you can get those sort of vibes But yeah, I don't know never really I just had you know people in their 20s doing it for me Sure, I would like the idea of maybe um either GB or Sam's getting a virtual assistant Like says if we if we gave you like a $50 a week Budget or something could you put a business case on using an assistant that could do some of your work that you could be slacking with Yeah, I'll I'll look into it. Okay. It's all gonna be a good stuff But I think like if you but like in Indonesia that the um You know you're making 200 bucks a month in a full-time job Which you are then if you're in Jakarta, you're fucking driving or like on a motorbike for three four hours of traffic and so yeah, they can work from home Um, yeah, all right.

You can't just get great to do it.

Maybe we don't write to you with any work stuff. That could be your assistant. Oh, yeah I don't know how much we're gonna get 50 bucks to be honest like 50 bucks a week Like probably like an ethical amount would be like eight bucks an hour in like Philippines or something And so what so we're talking like uh Yeah, so That's up, but we'll see.
