Well, like that introduction that's my name is Thomas Tan. And I'm Philip Kuoch. And coming up later on the show, we speak to Ophie Ho, who is a go boss and how she's transforming women's lives around Australia with her business. But first, how is your week? Had a very fun week. Actually, we went to the Pentatonix concert. We did. [00:00:41] And I swear, I feel like because I like an acapella group. Right. I feel like everyone that was at the concert was like a sing off, because when you want to get this crouse's sing it just sing like a massive choir. Anyone Senate. Amazing. [00:00:54] I think you can actually see the hard work and the dedication like the years that it takes for you to get to know your band members as well as know exactly what you have to do because harmonies are hardly telling you. It's like you have to sing in perfect pitch key and get to know exactly where to go. Boop, boop, boop. If you miss it like a doo doo or a bup bup. That means that you pretty much share the whole whole group off. [00:01:14] I love how you appreciate, like, you know, the music side of it. For me, the whole time I was thinking about was the thing about the business side. I was like probably the most profitable band in the world because we we did discuss a little bit how much they were earning that night. Because like they didn't have any bandmates. It's just that making sounds of their mouth. So so like they didn't have to hire like dancers, all a bandmates. It was just the making sounds of their mouth. But they got sick. [00:01:40] If one of them or two of them got sick, then like concerts cancelled. [00:01:43] Let's take a live look now outside of work. Ariana Grande, they lick and spit on the merchandise. There can be a hundred people in the room. Rise and shine. China. China. China. China. China. China. China. [00:02:04] We also just watched the Harlequin movie. Maybe like two hours ago. And I felt that it was incredible what they consider so well. And Magor, Robbie's acting is phenomenal. [00:02:15] Oh, she's good. I know the little girl, the Asian go who's in the movie as well. She was really funny. [00:02:21] I thought she was like, I'll tell you know, I thought that she was like an 18 or playing like that. And like they normally do in Hollywood. But you gewgaws, she's actually 13 years old. [00:02:27] She's 13 and she's in critical for her age. It was really funny the whole time while watching that movie. I was just thinking like, wow, like we talked to Jenny earlier this week. [00:02:36] Our friend Jenny, she's in L.A. right now doing pilot sea...
