From the transcript

You know, a lot of the board members ask me what life is out like out in rural Alaska. Bethel is going to be an eye-opener for the board, that's for sure. But if you get out to the rural villages, it'll be a bigger eye-opener. And I think this provides a unique opportunity for the board to really— to get to know a region that has been, um, by, by, you know, meeting location, chronically underrepresented and under, underpresented to the board. Thank you,.
