• 0:14
  Speaker 1: he also sings, and then there's Daniel Pruitt, which is
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: the guitar player and he's technically the fourth member because
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: Ben is the drummer and he was the third member
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: of the band.
• 0:28
  Speaker 2: There you go out of ordered it for a moment, but.

  Speaker 4: After Glowy drops May sixteen, what's one track on the
• 0:39
  Speaker 4: album that you.
• 0:39
  Speaker 3: Think is going to surprise people the most? And why?
• 0:44
  Speaker 2: You know? I don't know.
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: I think I'm gonna go ahead and say gravity, not
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: because of anything besides the.
• 0:55
  Speaker 2: Fact that I was actually laughing.
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: I was in the car last night and today I've
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: been thinking about putting up a video like a little
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: story and just being like May sixteenth, I can't wait
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: to make you all angry again, because everybody gets so
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: upset whenever they're just like, oh my gosh, it's not
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: a heavy song. It's like, oh, they're leaning more towards
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: the pop.
• 1:16
  Speaker 5: Well, I would say, everybody, but like there's I'd say,
• 1:19
  Speaker 5: like there's a twenty percent of fan base that get
• 1:22
  Speaker 5: so upset when they see songs like Stuck in my
• 1:24
  Speaker 5: Head and Static, and I'm just like, dude, I can't
• 1:27
  Speaker 5: wait to make these people angry.
• 1:28
  Speaker 2: I cannot wait.
• 1:31
  Speaker 3: You can't make everyone happy, can you?
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: No?
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: And you know the thing is is, like that's the
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: best part is because at the end of the day,
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: I don't care to make everybody happy.
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: I care to make myself happy. So if no one
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: in the world likes the music at least I do, that.
• 1:44
  Speaker 3: That's it. That's awesome.
• 1:46
  Speaker 4: And I have listened to it, and it really the
• 1:49
  Speaker 4: people that are wanting something more heavy, I think they're
• 1:51
  Speaker 4: gonna get it.
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, no, it's it's fun.
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: But then you know there's the people that don't even
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: that don't like the pop stuff, like well, I wouldn't
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: say there's people that enjoy the pop stuff that love
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: the heavy stuff, Like there's a lot more people that,
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: you know, like you get the big, buff, bearded guys
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: with beers in their hands and the koozies that really
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: love goneer stand and stuff like that, Like you'd be
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: surprised how many people actually really enjoy like the softer stuff.
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: I'd say, the softer stuff.
• 2:23
  Speaker 4: But yeah, well that's it. I think you guys just
• 2:26
  Speaker 4: blend it all so well, which kind of leads into
• 2:29
  Speaker 4: my next question. You've blended rock, metalcore, pop, and even
• 2:32
  Speaker 4: R and B on this album. Were there any unexpected
• 2:35
  Speaker 4: inspirations that shape your sound.
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: I wouldn't say there's anything unexpected.
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: I mean, like, truthfully, I'm probably the most unexpected thing
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: that shapes the sound because it just depends on what
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: I'm listening to them the day. I would pull up
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: to the studio and be like, yo, like, let's let's
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: let's try this, you know, so like, hey, you know,
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: I could be somewhere and just listen to whatever and
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: if it, like, if it sounds good, going to go
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: and be like, yo, like we should try to incorporate
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: this in some way. So, I mean, I wouldn't say
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: there's any one thing that helps shape the sound. It
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: really just it just comes off of being very sporadic.
• 3:10
  Speaker 4: Yeah, And is it just you that has the ideas
• 3:12
  Speaker 4: behind the songwriting and the sound or is it everyone
• 3:15
  Speaker 4: has it?
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: It's it's the spearheads of the project. It is like myself,
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: our producer and Daniel, But for the most part, it
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: is myself and our producer that really gets the idea
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: like of Okay, this is what we're trying to go for.
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: But then like collectively we all lock into said sound.
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: So yeah, collectively we get together and then start to.
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: Nail out the ideas.
• 3:51
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, that's awesome.
• 3:53
  Speaker 4: And coming from an R and B family and serving
• 3:56
  Speaker 4: in the army, how have those two very different worlds
• 3:59
  Speaker 4: shaped the way lead and create in sleep theory?
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: Yeah? I mean R and B has just always been
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: a part.
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: Of like my my, my, my makeup, you know, so
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: like it's it's very much so just something that I
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: grew up with and and just you know, it's just
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: always been I don't know, just in my DNA. I
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: guess it's just like, uh, whenever a bird gets ready
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: to fly, it just knows what to do, you know,
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: it just kind of jumps out the nest and it
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: just flaps his wings.
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: You know. It's just it's just one of those things
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: that it just came naturally.
• 4:39
  Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah, that's wicked.
• 4:41
  Speaker 4: And the bit about the army really surprises me as well.
• 4:45
  Speaker 4: Was there any emotions from that time you spent there
• 4:48
  Speaker 4: brought up do you think?
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: No, not at all.
• 4:53
  Speaker 4: That's good and another way exploded on TikTok, particularly practically overnight.
• 5:00
  Speaker 4: What went through your head when you saw the numbers
• 5:02
  Speaker 4: climbing like that.
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: I woke up from a nap, well from sleeping. I
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: looked at it. I was like, man, that's crazy, and
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: I went back to sleep. I was like, that's crazy.
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: But then, like all seriousness, I thought it was I
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: thought it was really great, you know.
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: Was I surprised? No?
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: I can't really say I was surprised because I always
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: told myself it was never a matter of if it
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: would work, it was just when the right people heard it.
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: So I'm very big on knowing for myself what's good
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: and what's not.
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: You know. And I knew that the music was good.
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: I just knew that it just needed to get in
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: front of the right people, and you like, get on
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: the right platform to be then pushed.
• 5:47
  Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, that makes sense. And you've worked with Zach
• 5:51
  Speaker 4: Slaveni and David Cowe. What's one moment in the studio
• 5:54
  Speaker 4: that made you go, yeah, this is going to be huge.
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: So David is the only producer that we've worked with
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: as far as writing. Zach has done all the mastering,
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: and like mixing and mastering. But as far as like
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: whenever I first started working with Dave in writing it, Yeah,
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: I just knew from from get go, like from the sound,
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: the way the songs were written, whenever he wrote them,
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: and just like work working together with him. It just
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: it was a no brainer. I even told. I told
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: because before everybody else was in the band, it was me, myself, Paolo,
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: and then two other people that were a part of project.
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: But one day I just had like a talk with him.
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: I was like, yo, like I just want to let
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: y'all know, like you know this is happening, this is
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: before anything, this is like back in twenty twenty one.
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: But I told him.
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: I was like, yo, like I put too much time
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: into this project, into music. I was like, I know
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: working with Dave is going to be what gets me
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: to that next level. And I was like and like
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: if I'm not working with him, I'm just done.
• 6:57
  Speaker 2: Like I just knew. I was like this is like yeah,
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: I mean like I'm not wanting to give up. I
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: was like like.
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: I'm not gonna let anybody else ruin what I know
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: is what's good for the project. I was like, if
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: there's any point that I see that this could be
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: screwed up. I'm like, I like, there's no how can
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: I say what I'm trying to say.
• 7:20
  Speaker 2: Dave was.
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: In our area the best producer and still is the
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: best producer in our area. Ye, and if I'm working
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: with him, if I'm not working with him, then I
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: mean like.
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: That was like the best chance there, you know.
• 7:34
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 7:34
  Speaker 2: So I was just kind of like, I'm just gonna
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: be done.
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: And I but the whole point I was bringing up
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: to him, I was pretty much saying, not the Palo,
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: but to the other two. I was like, if y'all
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: try to screw this up, you're cooked. And they got cooked.
• 7:48
  Speaker 3: And how did that relationship with Dave come about?
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: He came to a concert that I was playing with
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: my old band because he was friends with the guitar
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: player and the guitar players telling him that you should come,
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: that he should come check us out. And he came
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: and checked us out, and he he said my voice
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: reminded him of one of his buddies like he used
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: to play music with. And he was like, he just
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: really wanted to work with me. So we got linked
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: up that way.
• 8:21
  Speaker 4: And you've toured with Legends like Shine Down Falling in Reverse,
• 8:24
  Speaker 4: just to name a few.
• 8:26
  Speaker 3: What's the best piece of advice you've gotten on the road.
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: The best advice that I'll beat on the road is
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: probably from Shine Down.
• 8:34
  Speaker 2: And it was just you know, I mean, it.
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: Really wasn't even like it's not nothing that they I mean,
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: they did tell us a lot of stuff they talked
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: to us, but they gave you know, they said, always
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: do everything together as like a band. I remember, it's like,
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: don't don't get to the point where you're too big,
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: to where you can't fly together or you can't do this.
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: Is that always fly together, always be there with each other,
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: and always do that in this don't ever feel like
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: because once you start having that individuality in a band,
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: like it just kind of starts to ruining. It starts
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: to ruin things. And I can't agree anymore with that.
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: You know, Like that's that's really solid advice.
• 9:13
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 9:13
  Speaker 4: Yeah, you say it too far too often as well,
• 9:15
  Speaker 4: where one person maybe yeah, tries to be a little.
• 9:19
  Speaker 3: Too individual and then it just everything else breaks down
• 9:22
  Speaker 3: around them.
• 9:23
  Speaker 2: Yep.
• 9:24
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 9:25
  Speaker 4: And Jelly Roll and David Draymond have both praised you.
• 9:28
  Speaker 4: Who's one dream collaborative collaborator for you you haven't worked
• 9:31
  Speaker 4: with yet?
• 9:39
  Speaker 2: Huh. Oh, couldn't tell you. I couldn't tell you. I
• 9:45
  Speaker 2: don't know.
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: Like I'm just someone that's never like there's a lot
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: of cool people that, yeah, it'd be cool to do
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: a song with, but I don't have any anybody that i've.
• 9:55
  Speaker 2: What's the word I'm looking for that i've. I don't lie.
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: It's too much to where, you know, like, I don't
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: idolize anybody, and so I respect a lot of people,
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: but I can't say like, oh, man, like.
• 10:09
  Speaker 2: It would I don't know. Maybe that question isn't about
• 10:12
  Speaker 2: idolizing it.
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: Maybe it's just maybe it's simpler than that, the simplicity
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: behind just saying that I don't know.
• 10:24
  Speaker 2: I don't know.
• 10:25
  Speaker 3: That's all right, that's okay, and you know what you're
• 10:28
  Speaker 3: probably I respect that answer.
• 10:30
  Speaker 4: You're probably the first artist I've asked that too that
• 10:33
  Speaker 4: hasn't had a solid you know, like, I like and
• 10:35
  Speaker 4: respect all these artists, but there's no one I idolize.
• 10:38
  Speaker 3: That's like, oh, I have to do something with them more.
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean like I because the thing is like,
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: if I don't know, I like, I don't feel the
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: need to have to do anything with anyone. And I
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: don't mean that in a conceited manner. It's just like
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: if if the opportunity arises, yeah yeah, sure, you know,
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: like cool, but I don't need Like, I don't know.
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: I feel like when people put that kind of pressure
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: on themselves to get somewhere, to get something with someone,
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: it's just like it starts to if they don't get there,
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: they feel like they're failing. And I'm not gonna ever
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: put myself in a position to where I feel like
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: I'm failing.
• 11:14
  Speaker 2: Is I don't do it? They do, I feel like
• 11:15
  Speaker 2: I'm failing. I'm not going to fail.
• 11:17
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, exactly, no good answer. Good answer. Respect.
• 11:21
  Speaker 4: And what's one city or festival you haven't played yet
• 11:24
  Speaker 4: that's on your sleep theory bucket list?
• 11:28
  Speaker 2: Again, I wherever the people want us to be.
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: I like, I have no festival or anything that I'm
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: just like, I have to play anything because honestly, if
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: we the one thing I know is and you expect nothing,
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: you can't be disappointed. I'm not going to say it,
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: I'd ever be disappointed with anything. I just don't expect anything.
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: I just would have played music and have a good time,
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: it'd be cool to play. I mean like there's not
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: a festival, but I mean like I like to go
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: to Japan. Yeah, like whatever festival it exists Japan, get
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: us on there, I guess, but there's nothing in the
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: States or anything like that. Honestly, I couldn't really name
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: you any festivals. Like a lot of these festivals, they'll
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: be like, oh, you guys are on this. I'm like,
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: on what not me Like, I don't really realize how
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: how big of a thing it is.
• 12:17
  Speaker 2: One moment. But yeah, I mean like I don't know.
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: I just I just don't have any I don't know.
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: I've always been so to myself with certain things, and
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: it's not like in a oh I gotta say to
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: myself for like because I'm afraid of getting my feelings
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: hurt or anything like that. I just I just I
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: just operate, you know, Like so for a long time.
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: It's kind of like a meme at this point where
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: like someone will be like do you know who this is?
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: Like that you just talk to them like who It's like,
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: it's just such from whatever band. I'm like, I had
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: no clue. I just like it's not that I don't care, Yes,
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: but at the same time, I don't care.
• 12:59
  Speaker 2: Like I don't mean it in like a mean way though.
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: I just like to say it without being like conceded,
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: because I'm not some conceited butt heead.
• 13:08
  Speaker 2: It's just I don't idolize.
• 13:09
  Speaker 4: People, you know, And as you said, I think like
• 13:12
  Speaker 4: you're just waiting for the opportunities to come at you,
• 13:15
  Speaker 4: and if they come at you, awesome, If they don't,
• 13:16
  Speaker 4: you're not going to get upset that.
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: It's just like if it does, it does, if yeah, whatever,
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: you know, because you know, yeah, I mean again, you
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: can't be excited for what you don't know, and you
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: can't be get said about something that you don't know.
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: So if you just don't know, then you don't.

  Speaker 1: if we can get there soon. Hey, look, sooner's better
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: than later.
• 15:05
  Speaker 3: Exactly exactly. Oh, we really hope you can make that
• 15:08
  Speaker 3: true for us.
• 15:09
  Speaker 4: And being the fifth most played band on active rocking
• 15:14
  Speaker 4: under two years is wild.
• 15:15
  Speaker 3: What's been the most surreal we made of moment so far?
• 15:22
  Speaker 2: Again?
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: You know what, You're probably gonna hate me, but nothing, nothing,
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: because I've I've set the bar so high for myself
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: that like, when certain things happen, people are like, are
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: you not excited?
• 15:34
  Speaker 2: And my answer, out.
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: Of not being a conceited little buttead is just like
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: my answer is no, because there's always things that I
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: felt like I could get anyway, Like I can't get
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: excited about something I felt was was within reach.
• 15:48
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 15:49
  Speaker 2: You know.
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: Yeah, so once I get to the things that are
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: out of reach, that's when I started getting excited.
• 15:56
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: I've always I've always had it in my brain that
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: I would be a big artist, and so I would
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: not accept anything less than that. So whenever we get
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: to a point where certain things happen, I've already in
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: my brain made that celebration years ago.
• 16:12
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 16:12
  Speaker 2: Yeah, no, wow. So I mean, like I just I
• 16:16
  Speaker 2: just don't have a sense of failure.
• 16:21
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that's incredible.
• 16:23
  Speaker 4: That's really yeah, unique to hear. I really really like that.
• 16:28
  Speaker 4: You're obviously really intelligent and yeah, really in touch with
• 16:32
  Speaker 4: your emotions to not you know, let yourself get disappointed
• 16:37
  Speaker 4: if things don't work out or whatever.
• 16:39
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: I mean, like I told my man, you know, my manager.
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: He calls me all the time. He's like, hey, we
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: got this, we got this, we got that. And I'm
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: like that's cool. He's like, do you show no emotion?
• 16:47
  Speaker 2: I can't.
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: It's not that I'm not excited and it's not that
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: I'm not grateful. It's just like, those are the things
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: that I felt could happen, you know. It's the things
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: that I feel can't happen are the things I'm like, Yo,
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: that's crazy.
• 16:59
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but I am. Yeah. I just.
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: I've just always been very sure of my ability. Yeah,
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: And I feel like if you rid yourself of any doubt,
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: then you really just like you're a human's biggest enemies themselves.
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: So you know, if you just focus up and you
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: just do your thing, and then you're good.
• 17:27
  Speaker 3: Yeah, beautiful.
• 17:28
  Speaker 4: And finally, is there anything else you'd like to say
• 17:31
  Speaker 4: on the new album?
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: Someone told me they're like, you can't say that it's
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: a no skip album. You can't say that for yourself,
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: you know, because you're the artist. But no, I'm gonna
• 17:48
  Speaker 1: go and say it's a no skip album, that there's
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: no song on there that you can skip.
• 17:54
  Speaker 2: The biggest fear that I have is when we get
• 17:58
  Speaker 2: to the point where we have another album, is what
• 18:02
  Speaker 2: songs are we gonna choose not to play? That's the
• 18:05
  Speaker 2: biggest problem.
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: Yeah, the biggest problem that we have is choosing songs
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: what not to play because it's like someone's like, you know,
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: if they came to like, oh, like, what songs did
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: you playing are We're like, oh, well, we're not playing
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: numb They're like, you're not playing numb, Like okay, well,
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: well I guess we're not gonna play another way. You're
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: not gonna play another way. I'm like, okay, we won't
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: play static. You're not gonna play static.
• 18:27
  Speaker 2: You know.
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: We can go down the list of songs and any
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: song that I could name, someone I could feel would
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: be so upset that we wouldn't play that song. So
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: I don't believe in writing albums or having an album
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: with album cuts in like your clearcut bangers.
• 18:42
  Speaker 4: Like.
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: No, if we're gonna give a product, it's gonna be
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: a product top to bottom that is all around solid,
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: and I refuse to give anything less than yeah, yeah.
• 18:55
  Speaker 3: We can. Colin, thank you so much for your time today.
• 18:58
