[00:00:00] Zac Hall: Hey, how are you this week?

[00:00:01] Rahul Matta: I'm good. How are you? 

A guy named Paul

[00:00:04] Zac Hall: I'm I'm getting by I want to talk first about a person named Paul, who? Yeah. Hey Paul. You know, we, we talked the, in the episode previously about the star kind of our introduction and and how we were connected by I believe ha. A nine to five Mac happy hour listener who kind of heard my discussion and you know, looking for a feature that would replace Nike run club to give you personal records, personal best from runs and specific distances.

So It's happening now, it's in the works.

[00:01:55] Zac Hall: That is awesome. I can't wait to hear more about it. And I think Paul took his account private, which is why I didn't see the tweet anymore. But that makes perfect sense. It's like, Oh my gosh. That's so cool. Cause it was f…
