Luke D'OnofrioGUEST
Um, but with him, going into it, this Grand, I think after running two, really the first one it kinda, kinda took me seeing one to know how to train for it.

Luke D'OnofrioGUEST
Um, 'cause you're kinda talking to people and figuring out how to train for it.Um, 'cause it's, I mean, it's a whole nother animal than Master and especially a finished test- Yeah ... um, as far as- And what, and I, I don't wanna interrupt you there, Luke, but what people don't know about Luke is he, he's trying to learn how to be a Grand Handler so much that you were a site coordinator, correct?

Um, and, and I, and I wanted to do this 'cause I, I told Eileen, I said when we left the grand, I said, "I'm gonna have Luke on the podcast." She's like, "That's a great idea." Um, so tell the amateurs if you got anything, closing statements or anything like that, that you could encourage them or give them some advice on, on, on what to do before we close this thing out.
