I think it's monthly. Great. We're just waiting for Matt to join the stage. Now we left. Anyway, we're super happy to have so many people here with this new monthly initiative that we are
going to host and it's based on an old idea we had like many months ago when Mike Purvis was still in an e-requisition working on his crossword starts XYC which is now maintained by the Situ community.
pick up to the city community for taking on that. So basically it's cross with puzzle on chain and we want to every month make a recap of sort of the biggest news in the ecosystem and then make a quiz out of
it, have a little bit of fun, have people that are central to the New Yorker system, come to our spaces, talk about what they do, comment on the news, and have a good time. We're just waiting for Matt to connect.
