I need to film a a bunch of people who have noise complaints. You know? And then, you know, I I we like to try to do a bit of production work, you know, behind the scenes setting up interviews like that. But then a lot of the best stuff just comes from, just walking around a noisy area, you know, for instance, and and just like looking up at an apartment and thinking like, wow. I've I've always wondered what it's like in there. And then we kind of just door knock. You know? Uh-huh. So so it it's always a hybrid in that way. And I I I end up just trying to lean into the stuff that that is and feels the most organic and and and discovered because it it that's the stuff that excites me the most when I'm watching it back. Maybe this is, like, knowledge you don't wanna give. But is there any places you're desperate to to go? Like, any kinds of things where you're just like, I find this so endlessly fascinating, and I would really like to dive in. I mean, I think you, maybe did a podcast about this. I've always wanted to get to the top of the Chrysler building and just see, like, you know, that one that one kind of window. I think I've only seen one photo of of a dentist chair, you know, like, looking out onto the skyline from that, like, iconic window. And I I've always wanted to get in there, but we couldn't really figure out either how to get up there or if, like, any kind of narrative, like, justification for being up there. Yeah. You're you're correct. The the the this route is now closed, but the route was through the dentist office.
