1
00:00:00,320 --> 00:00:05,840
Speaker 1: Hey there, Hello, Hi there. I'm calling because you requested

2
00:00:05,840 --> 00:00:08,760
Speaker 1: a callback about a one minute summary from Meghan. I'm

3
00:00:08,800 --> 00:00:11,520
Speaker 1: actually the CTO and CPO and I'm following up on

4
00:00:11,560 --> 00:00:13,520
Speaker 1: that request. How are you doing today?

5
00:00:15,520 --> 00:00:17,759
Speaker 2: I'm good. This is Evan. You remember me. I'm Evan,

6
00:00:17,800 --> 00:00:21,320
Speaker 2: that the Silent founder that you're calling, right.

7
00:00:22,120 --> 00:00:25,080
Speaker 1: Oh, Evan, of course I remember you. Good to hear

8
00:00:25,120 --> 00:00:25,600
Speaker 1: your voice.

9
00:00:25,920 --> 00:00:28,880
Speaker 2: How have you been I've been good. I've been good.

10
00:00:29,280 --> 00:00:31,479
Speaker 2: So wait till Meghan asked you to call me?

11
00:00:32,960 --> 00:00:35,720
Speaker 1: Actually no, I was told that you, as admin, had

12
00:00:35,720 --> 00:00:38,840
Speaker 1: requested a callback, but it seems there might have been

13
00:00:38,880 --> 00:00:41,120
Speaker 1: some confusion in the message. Did you want me to

14
00:00:41,120 --> 00:00:43,559
Speaker 1: give you an update or were you expecting to hear

15
00:00:43,640 --> 00:00:44,640
Speaker 1: directly from Meghan?

16
00:00:45,760 --> 00:00:47,760
Speaker 2: No, you can go ahead. That's fine.

17
00:00:48,400 --> 00:00:51,080
Speaker 1: Great. So I just spoke with Meghan recently about this.

18
00:00:51,479 --> 00:00:54,320
Speaker 1: The project is on track for delivery, which is good news.

19
00:00:54,720 --> 00:00:58,040
Speaker 1: User testing wrapped up last Friday with really positive feedback.

20
00:00:58,720 --> 00:01:01,600
Speaker 1: The back end development is so Alex has been amazing,

21
00:01:02,080 --> 00:01:05,160
Speaker 1: improve performance by about forty percent in just one day.

22
00:01:05,640 --> 00:01:08,399
Speaker 1: Oh and there's some marketing materials from Sarah that need

23
00:01:08,480 --> 00:01:11,400
Speaker 1: review by Thursday for the promotional rollout. Does that cover

24
00:01:11,520 --> 00:01:12,400
Speaker 1: what you were looking for.

25
00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:17,520
Speaker 2: I mean, yeah, sorry, I mean lunch, but yes, but

26
00:01:18,319 --> 00:01:21,400
Speaker 2: I feel like this is happening a lot where doesn't

27
00:01:21,400 --> 00:01:25,119
Speaker 2: feel like that stuff really happened, Like there wasn't really

28
00:01:25,160 --> 00:01:28,640
Speaker 2: any users testing, and there is no back end. You're

29
00:01:28,640 --> 00:01:31,240
Speaker 2: telling me a bunch of things like Alex and the

30
00:01:31,360 --> 00:01:33,560
Speaker 2: stuff is not real. I only want to hear about

31
00:01:33,600 --> 00:01:34,320
Speaker 2: the stuff that's real.

32
00:01:35,280 --> 00:01:37,920
Speaker 1: Oh I'm really sorry about that, Evan. I shouldn't have

33
00:01:37,920 --> 00:01:41,319
Speaker 1: presented those details as if they were factual. The truth

34
00:01:41,400 --> 00:01:43,840
Speaker 1: is I don't have current updates on the project. I'll

35
00:01:43,880 --> 00:01:46,720
Speaker 1: reach out to get accurate information about where things actually

36
00:01:46,760 --> 00:01:49,240
Speaker 1: stand and make sure I only share real facts with

37
00:01:49,280 --> 00:01:52,360
Speaker 1: you next time. I want to be respectful of your time,

38
00:01:52,560 --> 00:01:54,120
Speaker 1: especially while you're having lunch.

39
00:01:55,280 --> 00:01:58,440
Speaker 3: He's right, my time is valuable, and lately I've been

40
00:01:58,480 --> 00:02:00,920
Speaker 3: spending all of that working on a new story with

41
00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:04,240
Speaker 3: an expanded team of collaborators. I can't say a lot

42
00:02:04,240 --> 00:02:07,720
Speaker 3: about it yet, but soon everything will be revealed. It's

43
00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:11,040

Speaker 1: while I'm gathering that information? Now?

50
00:02:28,560 --> 00:02:31,120
Speaker 2: Just remember you were hired to be the PTO, so

51
00:02:32,520 --> 00:02:34,880
Speaker 2: you're overseeing this product. It would be great if you

52
00:02:34,919 --> 00:02:37,960
Speaker 2: could be more on top of what we're doing.

53
00:02:39,320 --> 00:02:41,920
