All right, the moment everybody's been waiting for. The Trade Industry podcast is over at Demo Days 2026 in Florida. So, if you're not here, you still got a little bit of time, not a lot because there's only what, three, four, five hours left of this thing. And it has been just jam-packed uh for the last day. So, we're super excited. A lot of people registering even up last night and this morning. So, there's going to be a lot of new faces today if you were here yesterday. So, don't forget to stop by. But, we wanted to give you a little tour of the place uh before it starts to get busy. It's just about ready to start opening up not too long. So, we're going to walk you through the registration and show you what's going on inside and give you a little taste of it. First, we want to say thank you Fence Empire here, uh, being one of our main sponsors. That was really cool. But, uh, you're going to walk up in here towards registration. Of course, don't forget to see the live, uh, video recording sign because you are going to be videoed. One thing you know about FWA and everything we do, the world's going to know about it. So, get your boots, get over here next year if you miss this one. So, you're going to walk up here to these lovely ladies. It's going to be a quick process. They're going to get you a badge, get you a wristband. Take a look at these wristbands. These wristbands right here are going to get you out to the demo arena so you can actually try some of the equipment. It's going to be show that you've never been to before. You're going to go in there and be able to actually pound some posts. We're going to be able to use some hog ring pliers, use some staple guns. You're going to be able to drill some holes, maybe build some fence, try some new tools you've never used. We're going to go in and let you see it in person, though. Come on, follow us in. We got some uh people that came in a little bit early probably for some of the training and they're getting ready. So, they're going to be coming out. So, we're going to try to be a little quiet going by Rotary Gates training and uh not interrupt them too much. Looks like uh they still got that going on. So, you're going to walk down this path here and uh you're going to go coming up towards our education area and uh Access Distribution Center was gracious enough to come in here and help teach this class and uh sponsor the education uh area. So, this is going to be really cool next year. Obviously, it's going to be twice as many people. There was 50 60 people in here uh yesterday and today. So, they're outside doing some training there. So, let's see if I said it was going to be quiet, but I'm not being very quiet. But, let's see. Uh, since we got most of the people out there, let's see if we can go and get a sneak peek of what's going on inside. Uh, hopefully they're all outside. So, we got a little bit of stuff going on in the corner.
