So these are designed to help you level up, to tell better stories, to bring yourself to the table more freely.
fully authentically and uniquely to be more engaging and dynamic. That's the goal. That's what this whole program came out of. And in the near future, we're going to be adding more to the mix.

I'm tapped out, guys. I'm done. That's it. I'm done. Unless you're Josh, you might have more to learn. I feel like I'm Homer Simpson, right?
Every time I learn something new, something old falls out my ear. It's tough. It's tough. I only got so much room, guys. I only got so much room up there. And it is full of junk. Full of ra As those of you who listen to Voice Coaches Radio know, my brain is full of randomness and, and, and, and such. A lot of it about, uh, a lot of it about, uh, butterflies.
Yeah, and NASA. Butterflies and NASA. Space rocks. Space rocks. Well, I mean, people can hear the conversations, Sam, that you and I have prior to, I mean, you may think that prior, I mean, we're talking about, about things, books that we're reading and, uh, and I've been reading some, some interesting yet slightly disturbing books.
And uh, and now I know a lot more about things like. The creation of the Oxford English Dictionary. Yeah, it's amazing. Who wouldn't want to know about that? I know more things about, uh, Joseph Lister and the creation of, uh, of clean surgery, right? So these are things that are Like Listerine. Exactly.
