1:46
Speaker 1: congratulations because you got the sold out tour which which
1:50
Speaker 1: has had a huge venue upgrade as well, Which does
1:53
Speaker 1: that blow your mind that you can be literally couldn't
1:56
Speaker 1: be further away from home and the fans. I've seen
2:00
Speaker 1: a lot of pop stars in my time, Okay, I
2:02
Speaker 1: can imagine, okay, the fan reaction to the in studio
2:05
Speaker 1: audience and having them here.
2:07
Speaker 2: They showed up for you.
2:09
Speaker 3: It's just it's insane.
2:11
Speaker 4: Honestly though, Like when we were announcing the show dates
2:15
Speaker 4: in Australia and New Zealand, I think it's really hard
2:18
Speaker 4: to kind of like test the water, is that a
2:19
Speaker 4: place like this, because it's just like so far away
2:22
Speaker 4: that if you're gonna go, you're like you're gonna go,
2:24
Speaker 4: so like.
2:25
Speaker 3: Let's just do it.
2:25
Speaker 4: And we started with like smaller venues which were still awesome,
2:29
Speaker 4: and people were just so excited, which was really unexpected
2:32
Speaker 4: because I've never been here before, so seeing the way
2:34
Speaker 4: that people cared all the way on the other side
2:37
Speaker 4: of the world and wanted me to come here, and
2:38
Speaker 4: I felt very wanted, which is a lovely feeling.
2:40
Speaker 2: Isn't that great? What's better than not being wanted?
2:43
Speaker 1: You're right, that's a terrible feeling if you were put
2:46
Speaker 1: tour and no one came. So I'm glad they've showed
2:49
Speaker 1: up for you. Now tell me for people who don't
2:52
Speaker 1: know the Frayer Sky story. Took me through it, like,
2:55
Speaker 1: because I need people to not use sixteen right.
2:58
Speaker 3: Yeah, wow.
3:00
Speaker 1: When I was sixteen, I could barely get out of
3:03
Speaker 1: bed before midday.
3:05
Speaker 4: I can't got our bed go on mid day. I
3:07
Speaker 4: like to sleep until like ten. I like a sleep in.
3:10
Speaker 4: Oh my gosh, the story of Frayskuy. That's a really
3:12
Speaker 4: hard question, I think honestly, just to give you, like
3:14
Speaker 4: I guess my general backstory. I'm just like a very
3:16
Speaker 4: normal girl from a small town in England outside of
3:19
Speaker 4: London with the countryside there's like donkeys and horses and
3:24
Speaker 4: I just love to sing.
3:25
Speaker 3: Like that's really like.
3:26
Speaker 4: It's not as much more complicated than loving music and
3:30
Speaker 4: loving to sing. And yeah, I guess I just started
3:33
Speaker 4: posting covers on Instagram and sharing my love with with people,
3:36
Speaker 4: and people started connecting to it. I started writing my
3:38
Speaker 4: own music, and then I guess from there everything's spiraled
3:41
Speaker 4: from like doing my first ever movie, to releasing my
3:43
Speaker 4: first ever song, to then Silent Truman being my first
3:45
Speaker 4: song that I guess kind of really put me into
3:48
Speaker 4: like real music, I guess the real music industry and
3:51
Speaker 4: feeling that world too. So it's been a very cool journey,
3:54
Speaker 4: but definitely not a quick one. I think I've I've
3:56
Speaker 4: been loving music and passionate about this honestly my whole life.
4:00
Speaker 3: But I'm just like a girl from a small town.
4:02
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, you might be a girl from a
4:04
Speaker 2: small town.
4:05
Speaker 1: Who who has like, in the space of the few
4:07
Speaker 1: years that you have been post posting and people have
4:11
Speaker 1: known your name, like you have amassed a collection of
4:15
Speaker 1: celebrity fans.
4:16
Speaker 3: Oh interesting, Well, I.
4:18
Speaker 1: Just see Meghan Trainer in your comments section. I see
4:23
Speaker 1: Harper Beckham in your comment section, Like, I.
4:26
Speaker 4: Love the Beckhams so much, So that's that's a cool one.
4:29
Speaker 4: I'm not gonna lie.
4:29
Speaker 2: Don't we all love the Beckhams. Oh?
4:31
Speaker 3: Who doesn't that royalty?
4:33
Speaker 1: No, disrespect to my family. But if I could be
4:35
Speaker 1: in the Beckhams, I would be in the Beckhams.
4:37
Speaker 3: Honestly, me too.
4:39
Speaker 4: I love actually no, I love my parents so much,
4:41
Speaker 4: but like David and Victoria's parents, Oh, I'm not gonna
4:45
Speaker 4: lie in the siblings, the family, they're like they're like
4:47
Speaker 4: an army.
4:48
Speaker 3: I don't know that awesome, but no, it's really cool.
4:51
Speaker 4: Honestly, I think something that's been cool in the past,
4:53
Speaker 4: maybe like honestly, only five months, I would say, since
4:56
Speaker 4: I have really stepped into like the real music industry
4:59
Speaker 4: from doing like the jingle Pools and being surrounded by
5:01
Speaker 4: artistry in that way, I feel like I found some
5:03
Speaker 4: awesome like peers like Alex Warren like to think like
5:07
Speaker 4: a year ago, I was just like singing Ordinate and
5:09
Speaker 4: I was like, this is the biggest song of the year.
5:11
Speaker 3: It's so awesome.
5:11
Speaker 4: He's so cool and loving him from his TikTok days
5:14
Speaker 4: to then him being like checking in on me and
5:16
Speaker 4: catching up and seeing how things are going. And Audrey
5:19
Speaker 4: Hobert like people who I just love so much, and
5:21
Speaker 4: like you said, Megan Training, like it's just it's very
5:22
Speaker 4: bizarre and I can't write my head around it because
5:25
Speaker 4: I'm still learning tickbook dances to their songs and screaming
5:28
Speaker 4: the songs the.
5:28
Speaker 3: Lyrics with my friends. So it's very crazy.
5:31
Speaker 4: But I'm lucky to have peers and people who genuinely
5:34
Speaker 4: have good hearts and just want to kind of look
5:35
Speaker 4: out for me. Yeah, I'm young and I don't know
5:37
Speaker 4: what I'm doing, so they can help me.
5:39
Speaker 2: I want to you.
5:40
Speaker 1: You're wise beyond your years, and I want to ask
5:43
Speaker 1: you obviously at sixteen years old, when I guess a
5:47
Speaker 1: lot of your school friends would just be, you know,
5:50
Speaker 1: going to their casual weekend job, you know, at Tesco
5:53
Speaker 1: or whatever, stacking shelves, and here you are, you know,
5:56
Speaker 1: a movie star and touring the world.
5:57
Speaker 3: Is it?
5:58
Speaker 1: Are you having an out of body experience? How do
6:01
Speaker 1: you process? I don't even know if you know how
6:03
Speaker 1: to answer that question, because you're sixteen, and I wouldn't
6:05
Speaker 1: have had the capacity to when I was that age.
6:08
Speaker 3: It's really difficult to process everything. I would say.
6:11
Speaker 4: I think out of body experience like alter egos, like
6:13
Speaker 4: the wrong way to even describe it.
6:15
Speaker 3: It's more just like I sometimes watch.
6:17
Speaker 4: Videos of like the Stars and line tour and things
6:19
Speaker 4: I've done and I'm like, that's awesome, that's not me.
6:22
Speaker 3: Like I just like Tesco meal deals.
6:24
Speaker 4: And I like, I like watching movies, and I like,
6:27
Speaker 4: you know, like going to the park and buying clothes online.
6:30
Speaker 4: Like I do feel like I live a very normal
6:33
Speaker 4: life within my abnormal moment.
6:36
Speaker 3: So I think it is hard on my head around.
6:38
Speaker 3: I think I'm always so present.
6:39
Speaker 4: I try to be so present in everything I do,
6:41
Speaker 4: but I think there are also moments where you come
6:43
Speaker 4: away from things and I'm like, that girl seems pretty cool.
6:46
Speaker 3: She's not me, but she's doing all right.
6:48
Speaker 1: You know.
6:48
Speaker 4: It's a kind of out of body, like separation moment.
6:52
Speaker 4: But I do try every day on stage and shows,
6:54
Speaker 4: I try to have a moment where I'm like cool,
6:57
Speaker 4: Like I've me and my team and we've all worked
7:00
Speaker 4: so hard and I love this so much and this
7:02
Speaker 4: is happening and this is real.
7:04
Speaker 3: It's kind of hard to take it in.
7:05
Speaker 2: Have you do you? I mean, I don't know.
7:07
Speaker 1: Do you have anyone in your like wideer team who
7:10
Speaker 1: have worked on or worked with pop stars of the
7:14
Speaker 1: past who were coming up at a young age and
7:17
Speaker 1: have been like guiding you to keep you Like I mean,
7:19
Speaker 1: I do mean to be like a dad, but like
7:21
Speaker 1: on the straight and narrow. Its like you are not
7:23
Speaker 1: freyer going to that party with that man in La.
7:27
Speaker 1: We are not allowing you. You will be home.
7:31
Speaker 4: No, it's so funny you say that, definitely, But even
7:34
Speaker 4: also like I think team and everyone like they will
7:36
Speaker 4: have my best interest and I'm grateful to have a
7:38
Speaker 4: team who like look out for me in that way too.
7:40
Speaker 4: But also like my parents, I think I'm very lucky.
7:42
Speaker 4: My parents haven't when they were young, so they're like
7:44
Speaker 4: young cool parents.
7:46
Speaker 2: All parents are parents.
7:48
Speaker 3: My parents are like pretty pretty freaking cool.
7:52
Speaker 4: But what I think I'm so grateful for is they
7:55
Speaker 4: want me to always just be I think rounded is
7:57
Speaker 4: the most important thing, because.
7:58
Speaker 3: Like all this stuff is so cool, but it's like.
8:00
Speaker 4: The reminder of like you're not different, you're not special,
8:04
Speaker 4: like make your bed, like tidy your room, like tech cool,
8:07
Speaker 4: go like FaceTime friends, and that's the stuff that I
8:10
Speaker 4: love doing as well. I think there's so there's something
8:13
Speaker 4: so special about having people as well around you who
8:15
Speaker 4: don't tell you what you want to hear, and tell
8:17
Speaker 4: you the truth what you need to hear, what you
8:19
Speaker 4: need to hear. I think that's so much more important.
8:21
Speaker 4: So I think any advice I would give to anyone,
8:23
Speaker 4: even if any of you, so I feel my back
8:25
Speaker 4: is towards all of you, like get into music or
8:28
Speaker 4: in the industry or any of that kind of thing.
8:30
Speaker 4: Just have people around you who tell you the truth.
8:32
Speaker 4: That's all I could say. Like people who will be.
8:35
Speaker 3: Honest and like cow for you in a genuine way.
8:38
Speaker 1: See. See, this is why you're more mature than I am,
8:41
Speaker 1: because I would surround myself with people for the bad reasons,
8:44
Speaker 1: the people.
8:45
Speaker 2: Who tell me what I want to hear, not what
8:47
Speaker 2: I need to hear.
8:47
Speaker 3: You have my moments.
8:48
Speaker 2: You have my moments.
8:49
Speaker 3: It's hard. Sometimes it's like a trance and you're like
8:52
Speaker 3: you're fun.
8:53
Speaker 4: I like you, but then you're very quickly snapped back
8:56
Speaker 4: into reality.
8:57

9:00
Speaker 1: UK and the USA.
9:02
Speaker 2: Thank you, that's.
9:03
Speaker 3: Huge, I screamed.
9:05
Speaker 4: Honestly, I've never been number one in anything, so it
9:07
Speaker 4: was really exciting to wake up to that news. I
9:10
Speaker 4: think I spent the past three months in New Zealand,
9:13
Speaker 4: and while I wasn't getting to be on tour and
9:14
Speaker 4: like doing interviews and stuff, I was kind of like
9:16
Speaker 4: in my apartment working on a movie, which was so fun.
9:19
Speaker 4: But like seeing like me entering the Billboard Hot one
9:22
Speaker 4: hundred for the first time and why two hundred for
9:25
Speaker 4: the first time, and all these things, I was like,
9:27
Speaker 4: this is like real stuff, you know.
9:28
Speaker 3: What I mean? It was. It was very crazy.
9:30
Speaker 4: Seeing my name as well, like surrounded by some of
9:32
Speaker 4: my favorite artists, like yeah, Noah Can's new album. I
9:36
Speaker 4: love it so even being anywhere near him and his
9:39
Speaker 4: like perfectness of perfection of a piece.
9:43
Speaker 3: Of work, which is crazy. So yeah, thank you very much.
9:46
Speaker 1: Now quickly prast guys here, We're gonna do some fan
9:49
Speaker 1: questions in just a second. But I wanted to quickly
9:51
Speaker 1: say to you. I saw you say that some people
9:53
Speaker 1: think you are American.
9:55
Speaker 3: Oh yeah they do.
9:56
Speaker 2: Yeah.
9:56

Speaker 4: No, no, no, cleo, like you're just being nice.
10:42
Speaker 3: You're just being nice.
10:43
Speaker 4: But honestly, I people think I'm Australian a lot in
10:46
Speaker 4: the US. I think in the US some people get
10:48
Speaker 4: English and Australian and I'm flattered every time because I
10:52
Speaker 4: love Australians.
10:53
Speaker 3: I think that means I'm just extra nice.

Speaker 2: Absolutely.
10:55
Speaker 1: You know, Frey's guys here, we got the fans in
10:58
Speaker 1: the studio, say hello, fans say hello. Now, I think
11:02
Speaker 1: we're gonna pull them up to ask a question. Would
11:04
Speaker 1: you like to do some fan questions?
11:05
Speaker 3: I would love to. How do I turn more to you?
11:07
Speaker 4: Yeah?

11:17
Speaker 1: Mad, happy new talking to the microphone, talking closer, closer, Yep,
11:21
Speaker 1: they go good, there we go.
11:22
Speaker 3: My question is, if you could relieve any moment so
11:25
Speaker 3: far through throughout your career, will riphy such a hard question?
11:32
Speaker 3: I would say maybe.
11:35
Speaker 4: I think maybe my first ever acoustic headline show in
11:38
Speaker 4: New York at the Grammar Sy. I never ever performed
11:41
Speaker 4: on my own before, like at a show like that.
11:43
Speaker 4: So the first moment I came out with my guitarist Johnnie,
11:46
Speaker 4: we both like sat on the store and started performing,
11:48
Speaker 4: and everyone was singing so loud we couldn't even hear ourselves.
11:52
Speaker 3: We were like, wow, we were so taken aback, And.
11:54
Speaker 4: I remember that moment I just felt so much like
11:57
Speaker 4: love and just kind of like, I don't know, just
12:00
Speaker 4: it felt really nice that people had turned up to
12:02
Speaker 4: see my show, and it's like the beginning of a
12:04
Speaker 4: really fun kind of like touring journey. So maybe then,
12:07
Speaker 4: but honestly, everything's and so fun. I think Australia's gonna
12:10
Speaker 4: be my new favorite.
12:11
Speaker 1: Sorry, no you hey, I was gonna say, when was
12:15
Speaker 1: the first time when you were posting covers?
12:17
Speaker 2: Right?
12:18
Speaker 1: Or even forget the Eurovision thing for a second, but
12:20
Speaker 1: like when you when did you think, oh my god,
12:22
Speaker 1: there's something happening here, Like was there when you cracked
12:25
Speaker 1: your first million views or was it when you the
12:28
Speaker 1: followers went up, Like what was it that you were like, oh,
12:31
Speaker 1: this is doing way better online than and than I
12:33
Speaker 1: realized it was gonna do.
12:35
Speaker 3: I mean, I think when I got my first ten comments,
12:37
Speaker 3: I was like, oh my gosh, I've made it.
12:40
Speaker 4: I think honestly it was it's the small milestones, and
12:42
Speaker 4: three of them were my family, and then like four.
12:45
Speaker 3: Were my friends, so really it was three, right. I think, honestly,
12:49
Speaker 3: there's never really been a moment.
12:50
Speaker 4: I think everything has been such a cool, gradual process,
12:53
Speaker 4: whereas like in Eurovision, throughout that moment, I was like, Wow,
12:55
Speaker 4: this is like my life is changing. And then I
12:58
Speaker 4: come home and I was like, oh that was awesome.
12:59
Speaker 4: And then I did zbies and I was like, this
13:01
Speaker 4: is a new level of a new life, and I
13:03
Speaker 4: did and I was like, this is even a new
13:05
Speaker 4: level of that kind of feeling.
13:06
Speaker 3: So I think there's many moments that you say your
13:09
Speaker 3: moment when you're like this is crazy. But I've seen
13:12
Speaker 3: different milestones seem.
13:13
Speaker 2: To beat it every time. Yeah, Australia's the next one.
13:17
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, I think so, Like it's my first ever
13:19
Speaker 4: arena show I've ever done, like on my own, and yeah,
13:22
Speaker 4: I just have dreamt of coming here and I heard
13:23
Speaker 4: the crowds here of the best.
13:25
Speaker 3: So I think, pinch me moment.
13:27
Speaker 2: Thank you, Zoey, Thank you, Zoey, Thank you.

Speaker 3: you could collabse with anyone, who would it be?
13:54
Speaker 4: Oh my gosh. The question gets harder and harder every day.
13:57
Speaker 4: I feel like I get asked this all the time
13:59
Speaker 4: and it changes a lot. But I think one that
14:02
Speaker 4: stands and I'm gonna say it again because I've said
14:03
Speaker 4: it many times, because I think I know him slightly
14:06
Speaker 4: more as a person now. I think Alex Warren is awesome.
14:08
Speaker 4: I think, yeah, you're like saw that one coming.
14:11
Speaker 3: You said that before but I don't know.
14:12
Speaker 4: I think the more you get to know someone, I
14:14
Speaker 4: think at first I just loved his art and his
14:15
Speaker 4: music and it was just amazing because it is. And
14:18
Speaker 4: then he's just a nice human too, which I think
14:22
Speaker 4: also adds like ten trillion extra points if you're just
14:25
Speaker 4: like a good person, and he is.
14:27
Speaker 3: So I would say, oh my gosh, you're focus. That's
14:30
Speaker 3: so cool.
14:30
Speaker 2: Sorry, hang on, what was that the phone case?
14:32
Speaker 3: Was it that took me by surprise? So yeah, I
14:37
Speaker 3: think him.
14:38
Speaker 4: But there's so many people I would dream of collaborating with,
14:40
Speaker 4: and I hope that there's a day when I actually
14:42
Speaker 4: get to because I say my dreams a lot, but
14:44
Speaker 4: oftentimes I'm like, yeah, maybe some day in the future,
14:47
Speaker 4: but some day is a long way away. So I
14:48
Speaker 4: look forward to days when I actually get into collaborations.
14:51
Speaker 4: Maybe it's like on the album or on someone else's song.
14:53
Speaker 4: Like I think, there's a couple of things where I'm like,
14:56
Speaker 4: now is the actual time? So fingers crossed?
14:58
Speaker 3: Thanks, thank you, Oh my gosh, so cool?
15:01
Speaker 2: Where's Ava?
15:03
Speaker 3: Hey? Ava?
15:04
Speaker 2: Step on? Come on down.
15:06
Speaker 4: Everyone's wearing something I would genuinely wear to and off.
15:09
Speaker 4: The shoulder jumper is my favorite.
15:11
Speaker 3: Thank you, I have a little country today. What is
15:15
Speaker 3: your favorite song lyrics that either A written? And why? Oh?
15:18
Speaker 4: My favorite song lyric I've ever written. I mean, I
15:21
Speaker 4: feel like this is gonna come at a surprise to
15:23
Speaker 4: note one, but I think it's probably you're a narcissist.
15:26
Speaker 3: I'm an optimist. Name of deadly a combo? Maybe great choice.
15:29
Speaker 4: I think it came very naturally, just kind of happened.
15:31
Speaker 4: But if I were to give another one, that's maybe
15:33
Speaker 4: a less obvious. I love and maybe tomorrow I say,
15:36
Speaker 4: I can't burn a fire you keep putting out And
15:38
Speaker 4: I like that one too, But I feel like Sient
15:40
Speaker 4: Truman is always a go to. I think Sentry is
15:42
Speaker 4: one of my favorite songs I've ever written. And the
15:45
Speaker 4: bridge moment I think was just like such a gut
15:47
Speaker 4: punch moment that I loved it.
15:49
Speaker 3: So I think that how about you? What was yours?
15:51
Speaker 4: I was gonna say, London, Oh my heart, Oh that's
15:56
Speaker 4: so And when you dropped it last week, it's beautiful.
15:59
Speaker 3: Oh thank you. That means a lot, that means so much,
16:01
Speaker 3: Thank you so.
16:02
Speaker 2: Much, beautiful question, thank you, Phoie.
16:07
Speaker 3: I love these hoodies, star girl.
16:10
Speaker 4: Yes, what advice would you give to aspiring young performers
16:15
Speaker 4: like me who want to follow in your footsteps?
16:17
Speaker 3: Hey? Wait, what do you just perform in all three?
16:20
Speaker 3: Do you have a favorite? Probably singing, singing, Let's go, Yeah,
16:24
Speaker 3: Blood's go. Okay.
16:26
Speaker 4: If I were to give advice, I think my number
16:29
Speaker 4: one would be just like, keep going for the love
16:31
Speaker 4: of it. I think that's so important that it's just
16:33
Speaker 4: like every day you're going at it, and but it's
16:35
Speaker 4: because you love it so much. I think love is
16:38
Speaker 4: like the biggest driving force behind dreams and all of
16:41
Speaker 4: that kind of thing. So I would say, just like,
16:42
Speaker 4: keep going for the love of it. But I mentioned
16:44
Speaker 4: this briefly earlier, but I would say, like surround yourself
16:47
Speaker 4: with people who keep you grounded and who will also
16:49
Speaker 4: support you and uplift you, but also like be honest
16:52
Speaker 4: with you and guide you in the right direction. I
16:53
Speaker 4: think that's been the biggest thing for me as well.
16:56
Speaker 4: And another one just keep going because it's such a
16:59
Speaker 4: crazy world and place, and some people are wild in
17:04
Speaker 4: good ways and bad ways. So I would say just
17:06
Speaker 4: keep going, Like if you really love it in your
17:08
Speaker 4: core and it's your dream and your passion, never stop.
17:11
Speaker 4: Keep going and don't let anyone tell you anything.
17:15
Speaker 2: Love that.
17:15
Speaker 3: That's your parents.
17:16
Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, thank you, Thanks Chloe.
17:19
Speaker 1: And then Mikayla, where are you come on down?
17:22
Speaker 3: Tayla? Your hair is so gorgeous.
17:26
Speaker 4: I just wanted to ask when you started your songwriting journey,
17:30
Speaker 4: what made you pursue and keep going no matter what
17:34
Speaker 4: anyone said?
17:35
Speaker 3: Oh wait, that's great.
17:36
Speaker 4: That kind of connects to what I was just speaking about.
17:38
Speaker 4: I think the love for it. But also I think
17:41
Speaker 4: another one is you like the fans and everyone who
17:43
Speaker 4: supported me, Like that's the biggest inspiring kind of like
17:47
Speaker 4: force behind everything. I think when it gets hard and
17:50
Speaker 4: there are people who are saying negative things or also
17:53
Speaker 4: not everyone's always gonna connect with things because art is
17:55
Speaker 4: such like a personal preference kind of thing, I think
17:59
Speaker 4: the love of it. And also even if it was
18:01
Speaker 4: ten people, five people, and I'm lucky enough to have
18:04
Speaker 4: thousands of people who were there like keep going, we
18:06
Speaker 4: love this music and we want more. I think that's
18:08
Speaker 4: also really cool. So even if you find your five people,
18:12
Speaker 4: for me growing up, it was my parents and my
18:13
Speaker 4: best friend and my granny, and they were the ones
18:15
Speaker 4: who were like, you keep going, You're so good at this,
18:18
Speaker 4: and that's what kept me going. So I think, find
18:20
Speaker 4: your people who motivate you, and that's that's what helped me.
18:24
Speaker 2: So great advice. Thank you, Mikayla.
18:27
Speaker 3: Thank you so much. Mikayla.
18:28
Speaker 2: You're so bubbly frayer. I love that.
18:30
Speaker 4: I'm just excited. I think if I was a dog,
18:32
Speaker 4: I'd be a gonen retriever. I want to be a
18:34
Speaker 4: black cat so bad, but I'm not.
18:36
Speaker 2: Can I Mom? Did she come out of the womb
18:38
Speaker 2: with this much bubbly energy? Get her whole entire life?
18:41
Speaker 2: Bless you?
18:42
Speaker 3: It's exhausting, isn't it.
18:44
Speaker 1: I'm excited to have met my match.
18:47
Speaker 3: Oh my god.
18:48
Speaker 1: Sometimes people are like, gee, small, this enthusiastic, isn't it.
18:51
Speaker 1: That's the best thing.
18:52
Speaker 4: Enthusiasm, charisma, energy, It's the best thing we like people. Oh,
18:57
Speaker 4: I think that's the most cool thing in life for
18:59
Speaker 4: people excited. And also it's because I'm talking about things
19:02
Speaker 4: I love too, like I love this, So I love
