This is sort of live, and if any of you can see me, that would be amazing. So I can see some of you. The trick here is if you all pretend you're all in my living room. This is Shelly Adams for those of you who have not yet met her. And now I know how early I have to get up. There does seem to be no way that I can figure out how to get all the right people up here. So let's see how many people we c…

Thank you. It's a pleasure to meet you, Shel. Thank you for joining. That was a heartfelt introduction. We're so glad to have you as the protector of this community and the guide for us all.

Thank you.

So did anybody happen to catch any news? Has Iran fallen yet?

No. Still standing and they're being defiant. They're threatening to fight back really hard right now.

And basically that means that anybody could be shot on the spot and executed for protesting, but people are still going out doing it. It's been forty-six years. They are tired. They just want to do it. And I think what pushes them is Trump, you know, knowing that they have Trump there. But I'll let everybody else speak.

So we don't know how to add Owen yet. In theory, let me get back to that, Russell. In theory, if we add Owen but he doesn't turn on his camera, he can be anonymous. Is that true? Still figuring out how to add him.

I told Owen that he could wear a mask.

Oh my god, that's Sergio. That's mean. Hey Scott.

Hi.

Hi my bird. Josh.

Hey sir.

That's awesome. So you we're talking to right. Ye

s. That's me right now. So I was telling Noah he could wear a mask like the mask Avenger or something you know. Well, I spent like an hour last night talking to Erica trying to figure out how to add a person. And unfortunately, she was using instructions from Grok. Now, I don't know if you've ever tried to get instructions from Grok about anything, but it's near impossible and it has very specifi…
