I'm excited to have him on Robert is the owner of cars Australian black angus beef company, and he has some really interesting approaches to what he does with his animals his land, and other things, and I'm excited to have him with us. And I'm going to ask Robert to give him a little bit more background about himself and then we'll dive in. Welcome Robert

it thanks for having me Dan and and welcome all of your followers and all of the listeners. My name's Robert McKenzie, I'm the fourth generation. Beef producer in our family, very proud of that. The business or the, the stems back from 1884, where my, my grandfather's Arnie's raised my grandfather on the east coast of Australia. A couple of hours north of Sydney. in the Hunter Valley, and an ad for they like they had some Catalan is just slowly grind from there. And it's really good aspires to be able to say that we're on the fourth generation but he's producer of an amazing family operation and I'm glad that I'm in the business. We export around the world, and not much into the US but maybe after today we might be on the menu.
Dan Riordan 2:18

Look, I still value our relationships with some great people in China, and we just hope that we're back in there in the strength we were in 2021. Yeah,
Dan Riordan 3:11
well that's great, in, in getting to know you a little bit and know your operations. The one thing that I found really amazing was, I was looking at your beautiful farms and I was, I was commenting to Sarah I said, you know, if I have to come back as a cow I really want to come back on one of their properties because they're the most beautiful looking places I've seen you have some beautiful pieces of land.
Robert Mackenzie 3:39
Thank you very much with. We've grown a lot in the last 12 years and we strategically bought property in key locations along that east coast of Australia, where you know the waters that abundant, producers, great grasses, great, great cattle, it's funny to say that I'm on a LinkedIn post and I use LinkedIn a lot, and I love it. And on a LinkedIn post. I had a ball, and a cow, and a cast there, and they're always scratching...
