Hi Kurt. Thank you for launching this. I've been following your LinkedIn posts for a while now. And, I must say, it has engaged me a lot. I look forward to watching more episodes. Good luck with this initiative. If I may ask, is there a possibility you can do an episode on the matter of unemployment issues that have caused heavy turbulence in the industry over the past 1 year?
