Speaker 1: Hey, bet, why are you staring at that book and
Speaker 1: clapping while you read? Hey, Elliott, I'm reading the place
Speaker 1: by one of our famous figures today, William Shakespeare, and
Speaker 1: clapping out the beats of the rhythm in iambic pantameter,
Speaker 1: which is the style that he and most playwrights and
Speaker 1: poets of his day wrote in. Yeah, but none of
Speaker 1: you're here? Would you mind taking over? Uh? Sure, okay,
Speaker 1: Now keep that beat, I'm going to use it to
Speaker 1: play a song, just like our other famous figure, jazz
Speaker 1: legend Louis Armstrong two when at twelve and hey, why
Speaker 1: did you stop clapping? I was just getting started. I
Speaker 1: was calling that one King Lear, after one of Shakespeare's
Speaker 1: most famous plates. Well be it definitely sounded like a
Speaker 1: tragedy to me. Come on, I just need a little
Speaker 1: more practice. Now hit me with that measure for measure

Speaker 1: Today we're talking about two people who love play dates,
Speaker 1: Louis Armstrong and William Shakespeare. But before we learn about them,
Speaker 1: let's learn about our contestants. Okay, First up, we've got Gia. Gia,
Speaker 1: please introduce yourself. Hi, I'm Jia. I'm a lovely pan
Speaker 1: tegennist turning into a nineties summer t and tegennist trampoline

Speaker 1: introduce yourself. Hey, I'm Hazel. I used state pronouns. I'm
Speaker 1: currently second for public form debate and yeah, tell us
Speaker 1: more about this debate. I'm I'm curious about it. You
Speaker 1: usually get a resolution each year, and for the resolution
Speaker 1: last year was to the benefits of space travel out
Speaker 1: with harms, and I was on the negative side, which
Speaker 1: means I got to talk about environment and pollution and
Speaker 1: I got to say how space travel was back and
Speaker 1: me and my partner we went to a state competition
Speaker 1: and now we're second in state. Oh my gosh, well congratulations.
Speaker 1: I love that second place. It means that you're hungry
Speaker 1: for the first place, right, Yeah, that competition. That firing you.
Speaker 1: And similar to what I was saying to Gee, I
Speaker 1: wonder if I should take debate because we have a
Speaker 1: lot of debates around my house. But it's more like
Speaker 1: it's more like we're having spaghetti for dinner and my
Speaker 1: kids go, no, we're not. In my family. It's like
Speaker 1: we should have tacos. We should have tacos, like we
Speaker 1: debate over like the example, we're on the same page
Speaker 1: but still want to fight about it. That's the best
Speaker 1: kind of debate where everybody everyone agrees but no, this
Speaker 1: stuff exactly. And it's also the best kind of debate
Speaker 1: because you get tacos. That dan sound. Yeah, every tacobates
Speaker 1: all end in tacos. Well, thank you so much both
Speaker 1: of you for joining us today. We're very excited to
Speaker 1: have you on the show. And also thank you to Eric,
Speaker 1: our musician providing our mythic contestants music and all the
Speaker 1: music you're here today. So that's who is. Now let's
Speaker 1: find out who was Louis Armstrong with four fast facts.
Speaker 1: Louis Armstrong was born in nineteen o one and died
Speaker 1: in nineteen seventy one. Louis started playing the cornet, a
Speaker 1: brass instrument similar to a trumpet, when he was seven.
Speaker 1: Louis became one of the most famous and influential voices
Speaker 1: in jazz. Speaking of voices, Louis was also known for
Speaker 1: his distinctive, gravelly voice. Fools, those facts were crazy interesting
Speaker 1: you said it'd be. Louis Armstrong lived a very interesting life. Now,
Speaker 1: I don't like to toot my own horn, but I'm
Speaker 1: happy to let you folks continue. Louis Armstrong. A shout
Speaker 1: out to the who was app for helping you get
Speaker 1: here today? Who was wandering in the past? Oh, I
Speaker 1: came here out of curiosity. I was just wondering if
Speaker 1: either view fine contestants play an instrument or no anyone
Speaker 1: who does. That's a great question. How about it? Do
Speaker 1: you have time to play an instrument when you're not
Speaker 1: tumbling your trampoline. Yes, I planned to be. That's great.
Speaker 1: And Hazel, what about you do playing in I also
Speaker 1: play viola and I also play piano to start viola,
Speaker 1: So today I'm going to ignore the piano. I'm saying
Speaker 1: it's viola versus viola. We've got a real viol off
Speaker 1: as it's the It's w w V World War Viola
Speaker 1: today on the Hula's podcast. Very exciting and very cool. Okay, Louis,
Speaker 1: you came all this way. I would hate for you
Speaker 1: to just leave after asking one question? Would you like
Speaker 1: to post our first game? It's called true or false? False?
Speaker 1: Is a true or false? Is it false? Or is
Speaker 1: the true? Is the truth that it is false? Is
Speaker 1: it false that it was true? Or true? True or fault?
Speaker 1: In this game, Louis will ask our contestants a question
Speaker 1: and they will let us know if it is true
Speaker 1: or false. It's right there in the title. It's our
Speaker 1: first game of the game, so each question is worth
Speaker 1: one point. First question goes to Gia Ready when you
Speaker 1: are Louis. When I was a little boy and the
Speaker 1: other kids called me did Berth because I was a
Speaker 1: huge gravity false fan false. That's right, it's false. They
Speaker 1: didn't have gravity falls back then. Back when Louie was
Speaker 1: a kid drinking water, it was kept in buckets. A
Speaker 1: ladle called a dipper was used to pour water into
Speaker 1: a cup. But all the kids like to drink straight
Speaker 1: from the dipper the same way. My son's only want
Speaker 1: to drink right out of the faucet, and Louie he
Speaker 1: could drink an entire mouthful in one gulf, so the
Speaker 1: kids called him Dipper. Now as a grown up, he
Speaker 1: was known by the nickname Sachmo. Mr Armstrong. Why did
Speaker 1: they call you Satchmo? That's a good question. That was
Speaker 1: short for satchel mouth. People just couldn't stop talking about
Speaker 1: my mouth. Well, it is a great mouth. Okay. The
Speaker 1: next question goes to Hazel. When I first started playing
Speaker 1: music professionally, I played clubs at night. It slept all day,
Speaker 1: like some kind of jazz dracula. I think it's half true,
Speaker 1: half false, because I remember in the book it said
Speaker 1: that you only slept for a few hours before going
Speaker 1: back to work. Yep, we'll take it. We're gonna say false.
Speaker 1: But you provided exactly the reason why Louie's early music
Speaker 1: careers started out in nightclubs called honky tonks. Honky talks
Speaker 1: paid musicians very low wages, so LOUI had to have
Speaker 1: a day job. He'd played long into the night to
Speaker 1: sleep for a couple of hours and then go back
Speaker 1: to work. Sounds more like a jazz batman to me. Okay,
Speaker 1: the next question goes to you, Gia. I didn't learn
Speaker 1: to read music until after I was already a professional musician. True,
Speaker 1: that's right, it's true. Louis didn't learn to treat music
Speaker 1: until he was nineteen years old, already a professional. He
Speaker 1: was playing on a steamboat called the Dixie Bell. This
Speaker 1: steamer took long trips down the Mississippi River, so he
Speaker 1: used the spare time to learn to read music. Up
Speaker 1: until then, his natural talent let him learn songs and
Speaker 1: tunes just by hearing them. Okay, Hazel, here comes the
Speaker 1: final question of the round. Wow. Recording a song of
Speaker 1: mine called he Beat Gebs, I dropped the sheet music
Speaker 1: and without the music, I just started singing silly nurses
Speaker 1: like scooba to bob Bob do bo bamboo. True. That's right,
Speaker 1: it's true. Back then, musicians had to record a song
Speaker 1: all the way right through in one take, so if
Speaker 1: you made a mistake, you couldn't stop. Lewis's scadding was
Speaker 1: essentially a mistake, but people liked the sound. In fact,
Speaker 1: some musicians say he invented scat singing. Okay, Elliott, I
Speaker 1: don't know about invented. Now made better by Bop. I'm
Speaker 1: here to talk to you about your car insurance. By
Speaker 1: you know you can bumble and stay with Geico. The
Speaker 1: best scatting always involves car insurance. And let the Armstrong
Speaker 1: taught us that true and true, true, true hororful. Great
Speaker 1: job both you, Ge and Hazel. A round of applause
Speaker 1: to you both, the applause of an adoring audience south
Speaker 1: to an artist's ears here. Yeah, we came here together.
Speaker 1: But he said he wanted to make a fashionably late entrance.
Speaker 1: We'll look at that Elizabethian rock and I'd say it's
Speaker 1: just a late entrance. Seems that we've gotten appearance by
Speaker 1: the green Heart monster. That phrase is one that I wrote,
Speaker 1: but feel free to use it. Yes it is, I
Speaker 1: poets playwright, the Bard of Avon. But please call me will.
Speaker 1: I'm willing. Where there's a will, there's a way. The
Speaker 1: O g MC and yeah, I wrote a few plays.
Speaker 1: I came up for several phrases that you still use today.
Speaker 1: So let me lead you on to hear this one
Speaker 1: wild Google. She let me break the ice because there's
Speaker 1: a method to my madness, ask Camlet. I can be funny,
Speaker 1: I'll be tragic. I love words like Juliet loves Romeo,
Speaker 1: like Antonio said the Sebastian. I'll teach you how to fly.
Speaker 1: I am the concentrata. Yeah, I set the program that's
Speaker 1: for stories that will be told three hundred years later
Speaker 1: on cameras. But isn't it the worst. Let's be a
Speaker 1: riddle universe, and it's so hidden in the words they
Speaker 1: get a little bit discursed. So forget if you heard this.
Speaker 1: Bart was only for the birds, right, for everyone, from
Speaker 1: peasants to Elizabeth the First. I am literally literature. You
Speaker 1: know how they came up with the Lion King and
Speaker 1: west Side story. I won't make you guess my stories,
Speaker 1: so as you like it. I wrote sword fights and
Speaker 1: in Sinkings, also true Love Blooming in midday strings. I
Speaker 1: was so busy writing I have not slept one wig.
Speaker 1: So I'll endo my intro here unless we have too
Speaker 1: much of a good thing. Wow, that slaps yes, a
Speaker 1: true boy, Thank you, thank you. It was totally off
Speaker 1: the cuff part. And I know we're from different times.
Speaker 1: Did off the cuff mean practice all the way here
Speaker 1: in your era? Louis? I love your honest nature and
Speaker 1: your wonderful horn. Speaking of which, didn't you mention jamming
Speaker 1: out with Jimmy Hendricks later? Surely it's become later, Okay, okay,
Speaker 1: oh raspberries right. I've had a lot of fun with
Speaker 1: you folks today, especially these contestants, even even if they
Speaker 1: are players. About his cabattle farewell, the sachement made the
Speaker 1: delicate hand of fake guide your every step. Yeah, sure whatever, cool? Good,
Speaker 1: mean you too, man? And thanks again? Who was that?
Speaker 1: We should also get going to a short break, that is,
Speaker 1: we'll check in with producer Jane with the scores right
Speaker 1: after this. Eric play us some jazz draccula music. Please,
Speaker 1: it's the blood you don't drink that matters, you know.
Speaker 1: Welcome back to the Who Was? Podcast? Today we're learning
Speaker 1: all about who was Louis Armstrong and who was William Shakespeare?
Speaker 1: And now back to your host, Elliot Kalin. Thanks be
Speaker 1: let's scat on over to producer Jane with our scores
Speaker 1: so far Elliott, be uh Scooby, pop pop up Up, Dewey,
Speaker 1: Hazel and Gia are tied at two. Oh nice one, Jane,
Speaker 1: you love that scatting and rhyming with the scatting. A
Speaker 1: very talented producer, thanks me. It's as close as a
Speaker 1: game can get all tied up. So let's go on
Speaker 1: to the next game, because here's the thing. The plays
Speaker 1: the thing. So let's find out who was William Shakespeare
Speaker 1: with four fast facts paspacts. William Shakespeare was born in
Speaker 1: fifteen sixty four and died in sixteen sixteen. To this day,
Speaker 1: he is considered the world's greatest playwright. Take that, Tom Stoppard.
Speaker 1: He coined hundreds of words and phrases that are still
Speaker 1: in use today. Some of Shakespeare's plays include Hamlet, Romeo
Speaker 1: and Juliet, King Lear and Othello fo faspacts. Did anyone
Speaker 1: know that in the corridor there's a machine field with
Speaker 1: chips made of potato and something encased in chocolate called newgat.
Speaker 1: It's a remarkable time, oh William Shakespeare. I'm glad you're
Speaker 1: still here. We're actually about to start a game called
Speaker 1: by any other Name, And it seems appropriate that maybe
Speaker 1: you could host it, seeing as how you wrote the
Speaker 1: famous line a rose by any other name would smell
Speaker 1: as sweet in the play Romeo and Juliet. If you'd
Speaker 1: like to host the game, of course, the games the foot.
Speaker 1: In this game, William Shakespeare will describe some aspect of
Speaker 1: his life, but use an odd rhyming word or phrase
Speaker 1: instead of the exact word that we're looking for. So
Speaker 1: you must decipher what he's saying and tell us the
Speaker 1: real word that rhymes with the nonsense word so okay.
Speaker 1: For example, if the answer is big deal, Will would
Speaker 1: say something funny that rhymes with it, like pig reel,
Speaker 1: which is what I call the outtakes from Baby Pig
Speaker 1: in the City. It's a movie starting a pig. And
Speaker 1: because this is our second game, each question is worth
Speaker 1: two points. Hazel, you're a first will break a leg.
Speaker 1: I maybe considered the world's greatest play right now, but
Speaker 1: I shall always proudly be the son of a humble
Speaker 1: above faker. Uh, leather maker or glovemaker. That's right, The
Speaker 1: answer is glovemaker. Remember the answer needs to rhyme. Glovemaker.
Speaker 1: Will's father made gloves, belts, purses, and aprons, all leather products.
Speaker 1: Will's family was firmly middle class, which means while they
Speaker 1: weren't poor, they weren't rich or the nobility either. Okay, Gia,
Speaker 1: you have the next question. When I first moved to London,
Speaker 1: I was not put you a call well off. But
Speaker 1: I still love to stand and watch plays with the
Speaker 1: other bound things. I don't know, that's all right. The
Speaker 1: answer is the ground lanes. In Will's time, tickets to
Speaker 1: a theater performance were sixpence or sixpennies for the best seats.
Speaker 1: That bought you a seat with a cushion. Must be nice.
Speaker 1: The cheapest tickets were a penny allowed you to stand
Speaker 1: close to the stage with the other cheap ticket holders
Speaker 1: that were known as groundlings because they were standing on
Speaker 1: the ground. Okay, Hazel, this next one is for you.
Speaker 1: I use Iambic pentameter to write in what was a
Speaker 1: wonderfully lyrical style called drank first. In fact, some say
Speaker 1: I became a master of that style, and I'm not
Speaker 1: particularly prone to disagreement. I don't know. This is a
Speaker 1: tough one. The answer is blank verse. Blank verse doesn't rhyme,
Speaker 1: but it does have rhythm. I ambic contamperater is the
Speaker 1: fancy name of this rhythm or pattern. And if you
Speaker 1: clap to this rhythm, every other beat is loud. So
Speaker 1: here's an example. Be could you do the example? Yes,
Speaker 1: there you go, riveting. Yeah, that pattern repeats five times
Speaker 1: in each line of blank verse. Thank you Be and Jia.
Speaker 1: Here's the final question for you. During the horrible, difficult
Speaker 1: time of the bubonic plague, it was not possible to
Speaker 1: perform on stage, so I became a poet and started
Speaker 1: writing bonnets. That's right. The answer is sonnets. Sonnets are
Speaker 1: fourteen line poems with a very complicated rhyme pattern. Will
Speaker 1: wrote a hundred and fifty four sonnets over the years,
Speaker 1: and books of his sonnets are still in print today.
Speaker 1: And that, Folks, is the end of by any other name,
Speaker 1: great work, both of you. That's a tough game, and
Speaker 1: you both did really And now exit to Jane. Pursued
Speaker 1: by the scores. It's a fancy, fancy way of asking
Speaker 1: for the scores exactly, and that's that's the what I'll
Speaker 1: do is tell you, uh, and so Hazel and Gia,
Speaker 1: I must implore you know that you both scored four
Speaker 1: oh so I am a contamina. Thank you. Beautifully done,
Speaker 1: beautifully done. I think we've got a modern day Shakespeare
Speaker 1: right here. Sorry, sorry, I mean I mean, I mean Shakespeare.
Speaker 1: You're great too, You're great too. Okay, close game, very close,
Speaker 1: just like Jane's abilities are very close to Shakespeare's. And again, Shakespeare,
Speaker 1: thank you so much for joining us today. It was
Speaker 1: truly a delight. But now, dear friends, I must away
Speaker 1: to go eat chicken fingers, poultry, not poultry with my
Speaker 1: great colorades, and I'm carried gracefully on the wings of
Speaker 1: the Who Was? App Who Was More? Cool? Good meeting
Speaker 1: YouTube man. We'll be back with our final game after
Speaker 1: this break. Eric, would you happen to have some glove
Speaker 1: and purse making music you could play for us? Please?
Speaker 1: Driving Moves, Daisy Sally? Who was there? Marie Curie? You
Speaker 1: may remember me from winning multiple Nobel Prizes, or perhaps
Speaker 1: from my episode of the Who Worst Podcast where I
Speaker 1: played myself. I wanted to take a moment to read
Speaker 1: one of my favorite reviews about the Who Was podcast.
Speaker 1: This is from Shaken Bay and it reads loved this
Speaker 1: Me and my little sister love this show more. Please,
Speaker 1: our faith is Ariet Toman. If you want to hear
Speaker 1: your review right on the air, make sure to subscribe,
Speaker 1: like and review to the worst podcasts in the I
Speaker 1: Heart Radio up or wherever you give your podcasts revoir
Speaker 1: or should say abio. Welcome back to the Who Was Plodcast?
Speaker 1: Today we're learning about old school players Louis Armstrong and
Speaker 1: William Shakespeare. Before the break, Gia had four points and
Speaker 1: Hazel had four points. Lots of tip. Now back to
Speaker 1: our host, Elliot Kalin. Thanks me. You know, I was
Speaker 1: just thinking about how film is the modern day equivalent
Speaker 1: to what plays were in Shakespeare's day in terms of
Speaker 1: popularity and you know, in words for people. I thought
Speaker 1: it'd be fun to ask our contestants what's their favorite movie? Jia,
Speaker 1: do you have a favorite movie? What is it? If
Speaker 1: you do, um, it's actually an old movie. It's Baseball.
Speaker 1: Oh what a great movie. Good answer. That is a
Speaker 1: really funny movie. Hazel, what about you? What's your favorite movie?
Speaker 1: I also actually prefer old movies. My favorite movie right
Speaker 1: now is Bend It Like Beckham, how sad for me
Speaker 1: that that is considered an old movie now? I also
Speaker 1: feel similarly as those are movies that came out when
Speaker 1: I was a kid. That's all right, it came up
Speaker 1: when I was an adult. Well, those are both great movies.
Speaker 1: I will say. I also love old movies, but like
Speaker 1: really old movies, and I think my favorite movie is
Speaker 1: probably The Wizard of Oz. I find it very magical
Speaker 1: and I always kind of cry a little bit at
Speaker 1: the end. Be what's your favorite movie? Well, my favorite
Speaker 1: movie is B Movie, of course. Yeah. Sure, B Movie
Speaker 1: is a fun movie. No, it hasn't been made yet.
Speaker 1: It's the screenplay for my bio pick. I hate to
Speaker 1: break it to be, but there's already a B movie
Speaker 1: like the kind of bee that flies around? I fly
Speaker 1: around in my movie. I have this great idea that
Speaker 1: Jerry Seinfeld is going to do my voice. Okay, no,
Speaker 1: be Well, we'll talk about this after the game. After
Speaker 1: our final game, which is coming up right now, Converge
Speaker 1: of Greatness. In this multiple choice game B, we'll read
Speaker 1: questions where our two strocal figures overlap or con urge.
Speaker 1: And because recovering two times the history, this game is
Speaker 1: worth three points for each question. It's not a math podcast.
Speaker 1: Picked the best option as your answer, Jia. This first
Speaker 1: question is for you take it away be. Both Armstrong
Speaker 1: and Shakespeare did not mince words when it came to
Speaker 1: talking about those in power. But while Shakespeare and other
Speaker 1: poets of his day often flattered the monarchs with their work,
Speaker 1: Armstrong was more outspoken. Who did Louis call an uneducated plowboy?
Speaker 1: Was it a President Jimmy Carter be Governor of Arkansas?
Speaker 1: Or ol Fabis or see the King Elvis Presley B.
Speaker 1: That's right. The answer is be. During the Little Rock
Speaker 1: nine incident, when the governor of Arkansas was refusing to
Speaker 1: end segregation in the state schools, Louis Armstrong was so
Speaker 1: outraged at what he saw he called the governor an
Speaker 1: uneducated plowboy. Lou was a very popular black musician at
Speaker 1: the time, and he risked a lot when he was
Speaker 1: speaking truth to power and giving his support to the
Speaker 1: civil rights movement in the nineteen sixties. Hazel you right next.
Speaker 1: Both Louis Armstrong and William Shakespeare worked in team based professions.
Speaker 1: Louis was in many bands in his career before leading
Speaker 1: his own. When William moved to London, he joined an
Speaker 1: acting troop called a Lord Chamberlain's Men b Mystery Men
Speaker 1: or see the fun time play guys. A, that's right,
Speaker 1: The answer is A. Shakespeare not only joined the troop,
Speaker 1: but thanks to the money from his poetry, he was
Speaker 1: able to become part owner of the company. In fact,
Speaker 1: he'd stay with this troop for the rest of his career,
Speaker 1: which is how you know it's not an improv troop. Boom,
Speaker 1: take that improv Gia. Back to you for the next question.
Speaker 1: Louis Armstrong and William Shakespeare were both writers. Most people
Speaker 1: know Louis Armstrong wrote music, but he also wrote books.
Speaker 1: His first book was called A Swing That Music. B.
Speaker 1: Please stop talking about my mouth or see the Hunger Games. A.
Speaker 1: That's right, The answer is A Swing That Music was
Speaker 1: published in nineteen thirties six. Not only was it louise
Speaker 1: first book, who was also the very first autobiography by
Speaker 1: a jazz musician. Over the years, he wrote two autobiographies,
Speaker 1: over ten magazine articles, hundreds of pages of memoirs, and
Speaker 1: hundreds of letters. And that's aside from the dozens of
Speaker 1: songs he wrote that are considered jazz classics today. Oh,
Speaker 1: I suddenly feel like I should dust off my to
Speaker 1: do list, Hazel. The next and final question of the
Speaker 1: game is yours. Both Louis and Shakespeare got creative with words.
Speaker 1: Jazz musicians had their own way of talking. Cat meant
Speaker 1: musician and gig meant job, and he was great at
Speaker 1: improvising words when he would scat in a song. Shakespeare
Speaker 1: is credited with introducing many words and phrases we still
Speaker 1: use today. Which of the following is not one? Shakespeare
Speaker 1: supposedly created a cold blooded be puppy dog or see
Speaker 1: on fleek. See that's right the answer to see Shakespeare
Speaker 1: didn't invent on fleek. Kayla Newman a k a At
Speaker 1: peaches Monroe's credit with that phrase. The phrases like cold
Speaker 1: blooded or wild goose chase make their first appearances in
Speaker 1: Shakespeare's scripts. He also supposedly came up with every comedian's
Speaker 1: favorite phrase, knock knock, who's there? The winner is? The
Speaker 1: winner is who We're about to find out just after
Speaker 1: this That sound means we're at the end of the game,
Speaker 1: and alas at the end of the show. Parting is
Speaker 1: such sweet sorrow when we wait for Jane to tell
Speaker 1: you the points I'd love to hear from the contestants. Hazel,
Speaker 1: what's the favorite thing you learned about Shakespeare or Louis Armstrong.
Speaker 1: I didn't know that Louis Armstrong's book was actually the
Speaker 1: first autobiography published by jazz musician. I thought other musicians
Speaker 1: would have done that one by now, but they hadn't.
Speaker 1: It's what's funny to think about is how kind of
Speaker 1: new jazz was to most people at that time. Jazz
Speaker 1: back then it was kind of like what well I
Speaker 1: was about to name what the new music is now?
Speaker 1: I don't know what the new music is now because
Speaker 1: I'm too old for it. What's the new music now, Ja, Hazel,
Speaker 1: what's the music now? Tell us what the new music
Speaker 1: is now? Kids are back into vintage. We kind of
Speaker 1: like just pretending that we were all born in the
Speaker 1: year two thousand. It's nice. I guess maybe viola music
Speaker 1: is is the new the new anything on the on
Speaker 1: the block. Yeah, the future of music is that viola sound.
Speaker 1: That's right. I can't wait to hear it. Thank you
Speaker 1: so much both of you for sharing that with us.
Speaker 1: And now it's time for the big moment. Jane, please
