Intro/Outro (00:03):
Welcome to supply chain. Now the voice of global supply chain supply chain now focuses on the best in the business for our worldwide audience, the people, the technologies, the best practices, and today’s critical issues. The challenges and opportunities stay tuned to hear from those making global business happen right here on supply chain. Now,
Scott Luton (00:31):
Good morning, Scott Luton and Amanda Luton with you here on supply chain. Now welcome to today’s show very special episode today because it’s episode number 600, Amanda, how are you doing?
Amanda Luton (00:44):
I’m doing great. How are you doing Scott? We
Scott Luton (00:46):
Are doing well looking forward to sharing some of our favorite moments from really the last a hundred or so episodes, right?
Amanda Luton (00:53):
Yeah, it would, it would take hours and hours and hours. If we went through all 600,
Scott Luton (00:58):
That is right. And, you know, we sat down out in know a couple months ago. It feels like and celebrated episode 500. So, uh, we didn’t want to go too far back. We really want to focus on the last a hundred episodes and it goes, it goes without saying, you know, this is, um, you know, 600 episodes is no finish line by any, any stretch of imagination. It’s, it’s, it’s, um, an opportunity for us to stop for a second smell the roses, enjoy the content and the guests and in our community members and, and really the, the global profession that we had been, uh, covering and, uh, and get ready for, for the next 600. Right.
Amanda Luton (01:33):
That’s right. I’m excited. We
Scott Luton (01:35):
Are too. So today’s episode four, number 600. We’re going to focus own Amanda. Amanda typically is behind the camera and behind the mic. And, uh, we thought today would be a neat, neat way to, uh, focus and, uh, on her perspective and, and, uh, I think eight, maybe 10 heck maybe 22 of her favorite moments from really the last a hundred episodes or so, is that right, Amanda?
Amanda Luton (02:00):
That’s right. And it’s, it’s not just, you know, from the episodes, but really from, from the experience of the last a hundred recordings. So, so, um, things that guests have weighed in on, um, relationships and experiences with the different hosts of supply chain now, and then also some different things that the community members have taught as well. So a little bit of everything.
Scott Luton (02:22):
Okay. So we should say before we dive any further and get your start, uh, start your list, your countdown, Casey Casen you had the distinct honor and rightfully so, uh, supply chain digital put together a list of the top 100 women in supply chain. And Amanda, you came in at number 56, which a who’s counting more importantly, they recognize all of your leadership and hard work and, and facilitation, uh, in advocacy for helping this engine spotlight all these voices across business. Right.
Amanda Luton (03:00):
That’s right. Um, I truly think I understand now when people say that it’s just an honor to be nominated, uh, it really is just an honor to be included, um, on that list of really incredible leaders and, and, and, uh, influencers and in practitioners and people in the supply chain. So it was just really unexpected. Very exciting. Yeah.
Scott Luton (03:22):
Outstanding. Well, congratulations and well-deserved well, thank you. Proud of what you’re doing, and I’m proud of what we, where you’ve been and where you are and where you’re headed. So we’re really excited about what’s coming up next. So with no further ado, let’s dive into one of your key takeaways, favorite moments slash slash slash what have you of the last hundred or so episodes.
Amanda Luton (03:46):
So, uh, we’re starting with, uh, with a really recent episode. Um, Laura Seseri, uh, one of the top supply chain leaders, influencers. She was a guest on the supply chain buzz just last week, but her appearance in some of the things that she shared about her experiences in college and just starting out in the supply chain industry were so powerful, just really impacted me as I was listening. And Scott, I can’t remember if it was you or Greg that that asked her about the discrimination that the genders, you know, sexism, the discrimination that she was facing and experiencing, if it made her fight harder and just want to bear down and, and really get back at the, you know, people that said that she couldn’t do things. And what she said was kind of surprising to me. She said, no, it actually made her want to quit.
Amanda Luton (04:35):
And I thought that that was such an honest reaction and a little bit unexpected because you think, you know, people will want to, yeah, it just made me want to fight harder. It made me want to prove people wrong, but she said, no, that it just made her want to quit and, you know, make it just made me think that, you know, sometimes obstacles don’t fuel our fire to succeed, to succeed. They just want to make, you want to give up. But what it comes down to is that, uh, Laura had allies. She had people that were willing to pick her up when she was feeling down, um, that inspired her and encouraged her. And she shared that those people were the reason that she didn’t quit. So, you know, whether you’re male or female, whatever your race is, you name it. What Laura inspired in me was to be an ally for the people that, you know, people that you love and the people that you work with and be the reason that they don’t quit. Um, you know, we’ve, we’ve talked about it a lot in the past week, but B the reason that people don’t quit be an ally stand up for people, encourage people when they’re down. But that was really powerful to me.
Scott Luton (05:40):
Outstanding. Well, you’re not wasting any time to get to some of the, your, your key highlights, huh?
Amanda Luton (05:46):
That’s right. We’re going, we’re diving in deep quickly.
Scott Luton (05:51):
All right. So now let’s move on to your second key takeaway, the last hundred episodes or so,
Amanda Luton (05:59):
Yeah, so this is not a specific episode, actually, it’s two episodes of a new program actually, uh, in the supply chain, what we call family of programming, but I’m very proud of the new supply chain. Now in espaniol program, it’s been a labor of love. It was something that has created some new internal processes for us as we needed to produce this program. But the end result has been really rewarding in Ricky Alvarez and his team have really grabbed the reins and, and, and led this new program all in Spanish, spotlighting the supply chain leaders in South America and Latin America, Spanish speaking, um, parts of the world. Uh, but in regain his team just featured, uh, the executive director of the MIT supply chain management program. Uh, the number one supply chain management program in the world in, uh, Dr. Jeff’s way, uh, Valasquez Martinez.
Amanda Luton (06:54):
And then, uh, Paolo Nunez was the last guest on the most recent episode, who was the winner of the national logistics award in Mexico. So I just think it’s a wonderful thing to be shining the light, you know, putting a spotlight on these supply chain leaders in the Spanish speaking world, but also introducing them to our global audience. It’s very exciting. It’s been a real challenge since, uh, the extent of my Spanish knowledge is, uh, about 11th grade high school Spanish. Um, so I’ve been relying a lot on Google translate and some of our new team members that are bilingual. So that’s been really great, but it’s been a challenge for our production team, but one that we’ve really embraced because we think it’s a, it’s a really powerful program and it’s going to reach a whole nother audience that believe needs to be represented, needs to be heard. So it’s been really exciting
Scott Luton (07:43):
Standing, big fans of that series, big fans of vector, global logistics and big fans, of course, of their fearless leader in Rica Alvarez, who really is on a mission to change the world. And, and between that series supply chain now in a spaniel of course, logistics with purpose, which was one of our, our oldest series, love the content and in the voices are featuring on that, those two series. So, okay. Well, if you’re set Navarro with these first couple of key takeaways, man, you got to keep get, keep some of your, your powder dry, right.
Amanda Luton (08:17):
That’s right. So what’s next. So what you just mentioned with Enrique and logistics with purpose program was a perfect segue into my third episode or moment or part of the supply chain. Uh, now a hundred episodes that we’ve just been through. Laura Cyrus was a guest on logistics with purpose, uh, episode and live stream, couple, couple episodes go, but she was, uh, introducing our audience to truckers against trafficking. And the live stream in particular were so impactful, I think to everybody watching to, to the guests, to the host, to all of the audience, but just seeing Laura and the, and the work that truckers against trafficking do. Um, if you’re not familiar, uh, Trevor truckers against trafficking, trains, um, truck drivers and logistics companies to look for signs of human trafficking and sexual exploitation and makes truckers aware of what to look for, or how to help or how to notify their organization, if they notice something unusual or something that looks like, um, a trafficking situation, but they’re, you know, partnering th the whole organization is amazing because they’re partnering with an industry and a community for the greater good and it’s infinitely inspiring.
Amanda Luton (09:31):
But I think the best part about what I experienced on the live stream was how our community, the supply chain now community in our audience, um, that was participating and engaging and listening to the live stream, went over and above and began donating to truckers against trafficking during the live stream. I don’t even think it was me that had posted the donation link into the live stream comments. I think it was one of our community members and they started challenging each other. Like, Hey, you know, I’m gonna, I’m gonna donate 10 bucks. How about you? You know, tagging people, Hey, how about you, you know, donate $10, you know, maybe just to drop in the bucket, but to see, to watch that impact being made in real time was really inspiring. Made me, I mean, our community is incredible anyway, but it just made me really proud and, and honored to be a part of what was actually happening
Scott Luton (10:25):
And, and, you know, truckers against trafficking. I don’t have those numbers in front of me, but I want to say they’ve trained about a million people of the signs look for, for folks, uh, uh, victims of human trafficking. And I believe they have saved several thousand victims, rescued them from human trafficking and that, you know, I can’t remember several thousand, maybe several tens of thousands, regardless of doing great bottom line, uh results-driven or move the needle and let’s face it, they’re saving lives and, and that’s right, and that’s not being dramatic. So love those action focused bottom line focused, uh, non-profits powerful nonprofits, light truckers against trafficking. Okay. What is next, Amanda?
Amanda Luton (11:11):
So, um, my number four and five, um, here are actually kind of ways that I’ve been inspired by our hosts. You know, we have incredible guests on supply chain now, obviously, but are our hosts. And our other team members are of the highest caliber when it comes to, um, skills and knowledge and expertise and real life experience. I consume any and everything that Kerryn, bursa and Kelly Barner put out there, anything they say, anything they’re doing. I’m like fan girling over everything that they do. Um, they are women at the top of their industries. I don’t know a soul that Kelly couldn’t go toe to toe with about procurement or that Kerryn couldn’t match point for point a in supply chain tech or marketing, but more than being experts, they are mentors, they’re mentors in more ways than one. Um, and what they are not is arrogant or egotistical.
Amanda Luton (12:05):
They are as down to earth as they come willing to collaborate, um, to recognize other people’s strengths, to give credit where credit is due to work for the greater good of the organization. And I’m so proud to work for an organization with people in the organization that recognized that diversity in all different ways, thought diversity, age, race, gender diversity, and experience is so valuable and so important. And the women from the top to the bottom of supply chain now are appreciated and are a vital part in all of the facets of supply chain now. But I actually, I came across a quote on social media the other day that Sandra McQuillan had had said, and she said to keep the door open and the ladder down. And it really, it made me think about what Kelly and Kerryn do every single day. They inspire me to be a mentor, to be an ally, uh, kind of along the same lines as, as Laura says, Siri, to help people along the way and the best way that I’m able, it’s our job to make it easier for everyone to make it easier for women in this industry, Kerryn and Kelly live it out every single day.
Amanda Luton (13:16):
And I’m, I’m so proud and honored to work with them, to collaborate with them, to learn from them. And they’re salt of the earth. I mean, they’re, they’re not only experts industry leaders, uh, but there’s some of just the best women that I’ve I’ve met.
Scott Luton (13:31):
Yeah. Well said, um, big fans here, what’d you say, a girl crushing fan girling clothes.
Scott Luton (13:42):
Well, uh, big fans of, uh, Kelly and Kerryn, of course, big fans of all of our hosts. Uh, you know, Chris Barnes, uh, Enrique of course, Craig white, who, um, is typically my partner in crime with live streams. And many of our podcasts, uh, page supply chain is launching a new freight focused, uh, series with us. Uh, we already mentioned Enrique, uh, Miller, Jeff Miller, Kevin L. Jackson, gosh, Kevin L. Jackson, what a brilliant individual that is and a beautiful person absolutely have enjoyed all of their contributions and, and folks, we got a lot more, we’ll be launching in the weeks and months ahead. So, all right. So Amanda, as we continue your countdown on some of your favorite takeaways from the last hundred or so episodes,
Amanda Luton (14:29):
What’s next. So the next couple are some things that I’ve learned from our community. I know I’m absolutely biased, but I believe that supply chain now, community, the supply chain, now audience, listeners, viewers, commenters, you name, it are some of the best people in the world and in the live streams in particular, you know, I’ve gotten to know people and, you know, kind of created these relationships with people, with people because you know, behind the scenes on those live streams, any of the supply chain now comments, um, that’s actually me, you know, I’m the, I’m the person behind the, behind the computer screen when it comes to the live streams, which is really fun. You know, it seems like it would be boring, just welcoming everybody in and saying, hello, but I’ve really taken it upon. I feel like I want to force these relationships really make people feel welcome, really make them know how, how excited and glad we are that they’re joining us because it really, we would be nothing without our audience and without our, our community.
Amanda Luton (15:27):
And we really are thrilled every time people join us on the live streams. But one of the things that I love to do in the live stream is, you know, randomly kind of give things away. We’ve got books, we’ve got, um, supply chain merge with hats and t-shirts and stuff, right. It’s going to get a little bit better in the next couple of weeks or months, but, you know, I’ll, if, if people comment with something clever or answer a trivia question that you or Greg have or ask for a t-shirt, you know, sometimes they’re like, well, I’d love to have a supply chain now t-shirt and I’ll say just, you know, email me your address. So every now and then people will send me their information and, you know, we’ll get back and forth with emails. And the other day, one person was responding to a book giveaway.
Amanda Luton (16:10):
We had almost already promised the book and I said, you know, I’ll send you a surprise anyway, but we went back, back and forth with a couple of emails and then unprompted, she just wrote the sweetest message that it’s very simple, but it just was really touching to me. And she said, I love being a part of the supply chain now, community, and look forward to all the episodes it makes working from home, not feel as lonely. And I feel my supply chain IQ increase after every episode. And, um, you know, sometimes it feels like you’re slaving away. You’re missing out a family time. You’re staying up late, you know, and kind of for what, you know, sometimes it feels like it really it’s going unnoticed. It’s not really mattering. It doesn’t make a difference, but so those notes are so much more valuable, you know, that I could ever, you know, explain to know that what we’re doing is improving their mood or, you know, making them feel less lonely during, um, you know, a time of, of, of being apart from your workplace, from your friends and family, or providing somebody with entertainment or helping they’re helping their career, you know, like that is real validation, which, you know, no matter how humble you are or how much you don’t need the credit, just that little bit of validation is really nice, you know, once in a while.
Amanda Luton (17:27):
And it really, you know, for her sharing that, that we made her day, you know, also made my day too. And then a couple of other comments, um, that we’ve received from, um, different community members. One person said that what he loves most about us is how authentic we are, you know? And I said, that’s, you know, what you see is what you get with us. And he commented back, you know, that’s what we love so much about you guys. Um, that made me feel so good because it’s not like we, we try to be genuine or we try to be, you know, our, our real selves or whatever. It’s just part of what we do. And, and there’s no on-air persona and a different personality in the background or behind the scenes Scott, you see on, on LinkedIn is the Scott. I see, you know, behind the camera every day, Greg is the same, you know, no matter where you get your dose of him, um, you know, everybody really is very genuine in his exactly as you see them. So to know that that’s communicated kind of effectively and accurately, and that’s what they love about us. You know, the fact that this is really who we are. It was just, that was a really great feeling.
Scott Luton (18:38):
Agreed. Uh, authenticity is so important. And in these times, and you know, you can’t fake the funk on a nasty dunk. How about that phrase, Amanda?
Amanda Luton (18:50):
Well, and, you know, to, you know, our community members, our audience members, there are no dummies. And I think they could smell, they could smell that funk a mile away, you know, they would be able to,
Scott Luton (19:03):
I’ll take things you didn’t expect to hear on a podcast for a thousand years,
Amanda Luton (19:08):
But they, they can identify, they can see right through you when you’re not being your real self, when you’re trying to put on, um, you know, a different mask or a different persona, they can, they can tell right away. And that’s when people tune out. I think so to know that they can, they can recognize that we’re being real. It’s really how we are. Um, it’s how we communicate, whether it’s, you know, on air in front of people or it’s behind the scenes in an email or in a, you know, social media, DM who we are, you know, what you see is what you get. And, and that’s really, it’s really how we are
Scott Luton (19:43):
Outstanding. Okay. Who, I’m almost scared to ask what is next, Amanda, we’re learning so much, uh, of what you’re observing throughout all of this content. So
Amanda Luton (19:54):
What’s next? Yeah. So the, so the last thing that, that I have learned, or I’ve observed, I guess really is just a little bit more about our audience, you know, from Peter bullae, uh, Gary Smith, God, if I kept going, I would certainly leave somebody out as Leah Davis. Um, you know, the people that we see over and over and camp Sophia, absolutely these people, they are, they are real successful supply chain practitioners with real successful supply chain careers. And they’re showing up every day in live streams or every day in our episode, post comments. And I love that they’re engaging in these comments and getting to know people and not just saying hello, but really participating and really getting involved. You know, we’ve had, we’ve had people show up in the comments, say that they’re looking for jobs and people in the, in the comments that are posting and reposting and sharing their networks and expanding their communities to really support these people.
Amanda Luton (21:02):
I mean, this is not just a normal, you know, live stream audience where people are not connected. This is a real network, a real community of people that care about each other. And they’re not, you know, these are not just, you know, random folks that just happen to pop in. I mean, we do have those too, and that’s great too, but it’s a lot of, of people that are there, you know, walking the walk and talking the talk and, and their, um, the part of the supply chain that we really want to spotlight that we really want to, um, give the opportunity to be heard or to share their knowledge or share their information. So we’ve learned things from, from our community every single day. And it just thrills me to see, you know, some of the same people over and over and every live stream, but, you know, just as much as I love, uh, fostering these relationships we’ve created, I love seeing the new people popping in and people from all over the world proves, you know, how much people are hungry for good content and really dedicated to tuning in and supporting each other.
Amanda Luton (22:01):
And it’s, it’s just amazing. It’s like a bunch of friends getting together. It really is. And it’s, it’s just awe inspiring.
Scott Luton (22:08):
Agreed. It was amazing. The relationship building via digital channels has been taken place, uh, during the pandemic. And that for one, um, I’m extremely grateful. So I echo your comments. Okay. So I think you have arrived at the end of your list.
Amanda Luton (22:28):
That’s right. I mean, I could, like we said, I could go on for hours and hours and still leave things off and still leave people out, but right. Yep. That’s what I got.
Scott Luton (22:36):
All right. A couple of quick hitters to round out this list. And again, there’s so much, uh, that we, that we couldn’t fit in, but as Leah Davis, her name has come up, brilliant young lady, a biomedical engineer, uh, by, by degree. Uh, gosh, incredibly, incredibly smart. I sat down with her for a very short 30 minutes of which had five hours with her, but one of the things she shared get this, Amanda quote, the pandemic has helped me challenge the fears and the doubts that I have because other people are depending on me to get the job done. And they have fears as well and quote, you know, th the presence of mind, uh, to, to be able to realize that, Hey, I’m not only one with fears and worries and concerns. And by the way, folks are depending on me. So to be able to pack all that up and, and carry out, you know, your role, your duty, your, or, or your job, or your responsibility, you name it. So not only to, to make that happen, but also to make other folks feel better and feel better about their concerns, just incredible levels of business maturity. So well, and that’s just one of the things she shared well, and that empathy and self-awareness that she has absolutely awesome. And that, by the way, absolutely. According to Chris Barnes is the number one most often uttered word on a podcast. How about that?
Scott Luton (24:01):
Absolutely not. I did not have no idea. Okay. So let’s talk about another quick hitter. IM Nadia, Vincent CEO, digital transformation leaders, Kevin L. Jackson brought her own our, uh, digital transformers, uh, series here at supply chain now, which by the way, sponsored by digital names from over at TNS, she said, fascinating interviews, all about digital transformation, which whether you’re in supply chain or financial services or guests, you’re dealing with digital transformation, digital transformation, uh, in Nadi, Vincent said, quote, often we think digital transformation is about technology changing everything. And that humans will be lost. That’s not true. Humans are making transformation happen. We own the technology. So there needs to be a better relationship between humans and the technology in quote, good stuff there from Nadia, Peter Bola. You mentioned Peter Boulay. I love this image we’ve got on his podcast with us. It’s very tough in your face.
Scott Luton (25:04):
Don’t mess with me. Uh, could be the nicest guy that was tough about a great interview, your ballet. He said one of, one of the great t-shirt isms, he shared quote, be true to yourself. Be true to your craft. Be true to your customer. What happens down the road is out of your control, focus on what’s within your control. The rest simply doesn’t matter in quote, love that. Finally, again, this could be a, uh, a list of five hours and 5,000 little comments here and there. Crystal Davis was a wonderful interview, crystal. Uh, I think about 17 years in automotive and, and probably, you know, 25 years or so, an industry been there, done that, uh, across many sectors. She’s a big, uh, uh, continuous improvement specialist, coach keynote, you name it. It’s got a great podcast. She came on and said, quote, you’re supposed to be this hot shot engineer right out of college.
Scott Luton (26:03):
And people are looking to you for answers. And what I learned was that before I went down to Mexico, I was working in factories where people had, and they were 45 years in and still working. And so I had to learn respect that the people who have worked there all this time are truly experts in quote, going to the gemba. That’s where the experts are. Folks that do it. They, they show up and they do it again. And do it again and do it again, day in, day out, the heroes of global supply chain and global business. And I love how crystal Davis shared that, that moment of learning for her and her journey. Okay. Well, Amanda, before we call this, uh, before we wrap up this podcast episode, and I appreciate you sharing appreciate all of your hard work, long days, low nights. Um, but we’ve got three clips here. We asked some of our hosts to submit some of their favorite moments. We’ve got Kelly Barner who leads down P for procurement. We’ve got Kerryn bursa next, who leads? Of course ticked, uh, tech talk, sorry, tech talk, digital supply chain podcast, and Chris Barnes, who of course leads supply chain is boring. So let’s hear what they have to say.
Speaker 4 (27:17):
This is Kelly Barner, I’m the owner and managing director of buyers meeting point. And I’m also the host to dial P for procurement on supply chain. Now,
Speaker 5 (27:26):
When I think back
Speaker 4 (27:27):
About the last hundred episodes, there’s actually one that very instantly jumps back out at me as being particularly memorable. And that was the logistics with purpose conversation that Scott Luton had with Steve Sterling. Who’s at math international. And I remember when it came out, you know, we’re all in the midst of trying to survive, working from home and balancing school and things are difficult. And I listened to this interview and I heard Steve talking about his book, the crutch of success from polio to purpose. And he tells this story in the interview, uh, where he was very young and he had polio and he was living in Korea at the time. And his father was unable to care for him, both because of lack of funds and also his health issues. And so he literally brought Steve at an early age and dropped him off at an orphanage.
Speaker 4 (28:25):
And that was just the, sort of the beginning of his story that stuck with me. But to listen to him, talk today, he is so positive and encouraging, and his organization is doing so much for others around the world. That was one of those moments where I actually paused and thought to myself, no matter of the troubles, I thought I had no matter how bad or difficult my day might seem, it was not. Uh, and each and every one of us has an obligation to rise above whatever trivial or serious challenges we have, right. To still make the most of, of the go that we have. Uh, so for me, looking back episode five Oh six, 100%, Steve Sterling, president, and CEO of map international.
Speaker 5 (29:14):
Well hello there. Supply chain movers and shakers, Corinne bursa here, your host for tech talk, the digital supply chain podcast. And I’m here today to congratulate the entire supply team. Now team on hitting an important milestone episode numbers 600. Wow. It seems like just a few weeks ago, we were celebrating the 500 Mark. And now here we are at 600. So Scott asked about one of my favorite episodes in the last hundred or so episodes. And certainly there have been so many highlights, but one that I’d say really sticks out in my mind is the opportunity to introduce the supply chain now, community to industry trailblazer, Laura Siri. And we did that in episode number five Oh seven. It was really special to me. I have known and admired Laura for more than 20 years. And still I learned so much about her in that tech talk podcast session.
Speaker 5 (30:22):
It was a really great way to see that real careers don’t always progress in a straight line, but they can still have a tremendous impact. And since episode five Oh seven, Marissa Siri has now been a recurring guest on supply chain now, and she always delivers new insights or an interesting point of view. Her personal perspective is always, always interesting to hear, you know, one of my other really fun memories is the very first tech talk live string. That was episode number five 79, where Scott Luton and I discussed the five leadership attributes to drive supply chain success with industry legend, Jacob bar, you know, the supply chain now community engagement on the topic of leadership was just fantastic. And Jake didn’t hold back anything. It was a great conversation. So again, congratulations to the entire supply chain. Now team, I can’t wait until we hit number 700. Hey, it’s Chris. The supply chain doctor and host of supply chain is boring. My favorite episode of supply chain now over the past 100 shows was number five 30 with Dale Wilkinson of good gigs. I enjoyed hearing how he was able to leverage his entrepreneurial spirit to match socially conscious people and consultants to socially impactful opportunities. All right. So Amanda, any last key thought before
Speaker 4 (32:10):
We wrap here today, you know, if you liked the first 600 supply chain now episodes just wait for the next 600, the next 700, like Scott said, 600 is, is, is great to be celebrated is really an exciting milestone. You know, every every hundred we hit now I think is definitely we’re celebration. So we’re going to throw a little party tomorrow and then we’re going to start working again. We’ve got lots of new programs on the horizon.
