That gets harder and harder as you get more skilled. So we're in this wonderful position where we don't have to chase that first high. The the producers do it for. that makes you wonder then I mean, in the position that you're in, I mean, people that are in the audience kind of want you to get for sure. Do you want to be every time every time someone comes out? >> And you know, we try to make it one of the things you want to do on the show was to be coined. Yeah. And on all the talent shows that if you want to call them. >> There's always these people that don't know anything. Making comments about their style and staff we never do. That is very simple. We're not even saying this. A particularly good tracked. We're just saying one simple thing. Which is very close to object of witches. Did you for watching, right? Yeah. That's the only thing we're talking. Yes. And some of the best accident having full dustbin of gone on to be very successful. Glad you said that because sometimes I watch the shows and Mike. >> I'm not you. Their judges skilled at the craft that they're going do what they're doing. do it themselves. And we make that very clear. And the proof of that is we've got 3 action on the strip that have their own all theaters that started out on full now, whether they fooled to stream on really that important people watching go old. They fool the old guys. Haha here. It's a great show. You have the other guys to Brian often. Jean, trying to say the last day good largest try to soften saying and Jonas and then say Stauffer, right? Very first season and full.

And you're working behind the scenes of the show, right? we're we're we're producing. It will also be tonight. We're going on do something with them. do a trick or awesome. So you're part of the show to get tonight to remember what it was. The initial think that's something they did. A lot of that get a lot of allusions stop think stuff. And the biggest, the big stuff is the hardest fullest with? Yeah. Because it evolved slower and hash to expensive in big so >> card direction, the most likely the fullest because it's moving so fast, right? Yeah, the props are so cheap. But the full list big stuff like that by Peter and Joan, us to this fund all that we fought. We if people coming here all the time with the cards and we >> I mean, they're right here.
