It was the smartest 353 00:15:58.200 --> 00:16:01.679 move I could have made. When when July last year, 354 00:16:01.799 --> 00:16:03.320 you know, moving to the in the middle of the 355 00:16:03.320 --> 00:16:06.039 desert in July, I was like, wow, such a choice. 356 00:16:06.080 --> 00:16:08.720 But it all worked out. I was able to get 357 00:16:08.720 --> 00:16:11.120 a renter for my place that I have in Utah. 358 00:16:11.000 --> 00:16:12.120 Oh you still own that place? 359 00:16:12.240 --> 00:16:13.200 Yeah, I had a winter. 360 00:16:13.639 --> 00:16:15.519 I got a renter, and then the very next day 361 00:16:15.679 --> 00:16:18.039 I got approved from my apartment in Vegas, and so 362 00:16:18.080 --> 00:16:20.519 it was like, oh shit, we gotta go. And so 363 00:16:21.639 --> 00:16:23.440 what's funny is I was in Prague at the time 364 00:16:24.480 --> 00:16:27.759 because I even film internationally now like before when I 365 00:16:27.799 --> 00:16:30.799 was on the podcast before, I hadn't really done anything international. 366 00:16:31.279 --> 00:16:34.440 Now I'm doing a lot of international as well. So 367 00:16:34.480 --> 00:16:35.919 I was in Prague and I was supposed to be 368 00:16:35.919 --> 00:16:38.559 there for another week, but I was like, oh fuck, 369 00:16:38.840 --> 00:16:41.360 I gotta go. Like I was with Sofia, like my 370 00:16:41.559 --> 00:16:44.519 you know, my work wife, Yeah, close friend Sophia, she 371 00:16:44.519 --> 00:16:47.080 she was there. But yeah, So I moved to Vegas. 372 00:16:47.200 --> 00:16:51.080 And that was the smartest move because now it's oh, 373 00:16:51.159 --> 00:16:53.200 you're in town, You're in Vegas. A lot of the 374 00:16:53.200 --> 00:16:56.639 studios have moved there straight by Gay trans all of 375 00:16:56.679 --> 00:17:00.320 them have moved there. And so last minute is it's 376 00:17:00.440 --> 00:17:03.240 it's honestly a last minute kind of thing where almost 377 00:17:03.279 --> 00:17:05.000 every other day I get a call like, hey, are 378 00:17:05.039 --> 00:17:08.079 you available?
