So I think it's definitely an interesting... perspective so the way i want to bring this back to you and your question is through your boy band work and then through your uh your day job running a company and things like that are you being asked to do that like or at least test that concept of like here's a workflow and we use four different models and four different harnesses to do different tasks like test it and make sure the data doesn't make sense is that something you're getting any work around
52:03
I'll give you two answers to this one.
52:05
One is, so for Barting, quick overview on us, like we were a software and a data company.
52:10
On the software side, we produce essentially like offensive cyber harnesses to help organizations better understand their risk.
52:17
I guess we'll talk about this a little bit more because I care about it.
52:20
It's partly like why I built Barting.
52:22
There are a lot of companies that answer the question, you know, will we get hacked or should we expect to get hacked or can we get hacked? But at the end of the day, and this is going to actually touch on the model thing in a moment, what you really care about is can I handle an intrusion? If I do get hacked, will I be okay or will I not be okay? And you kind of don't care how much you're hacked if it doesn't impact you at all.

Need to find a love that's gonna last, yeah.
18:54
very proud of that single and how well it did.
18:56
And then last year we were very much focusing on our live show and just trying to get on bigger and bigger stages.
19:07
We started out 2025.
19:09
We actually got to open for a Canadian band called Street Heart here in Calgary, which was our first time sharing the stage with any band that has had some level of success.
19:22
And then I had been in contact with this venue in Edmonton called the River Creek Casino, which is kind of their big casino in the area.
19:33
And they've got a big music venue that holds about 2,000 people and so in October we drove up there and we got to open for Nazareth which was you know like that was really cool because we've been trying to get a show like that for a very long time like in a big venue that you know holds a couple thousand people and I knew we had to document the show in some way whether it just came down to filming it we needed some sort of of document from this show as we continue to chase more opportunities.

And honestly, those tracks, I mean, there's an urgency and an anthemic quality to each of them that maybe live performance is the best representation of those songs.
