Hey, Frugal Firearms podcast listeners. Today
is a very different show because today we have
a show that was recorded live at SHOT Show 2026
with Yankee Hill Manufacturing. Their CEO was
available to us, so we could not pass up the
opportunity to get a short discussion on his
products, largely that are now suppressors. So
the audio is a bit rough, but again, you don't
pass up an opportunity to talk to a great company's
CEO. So I hope you enjoy it. My engineers were
very upset because I kind of gave them a napkin
sketch and said, you know, I've been toying around
with this idea for years, you know, what do you
think? And they come up with their own ideas
and try other stuff. And after three or four
months of development, they're like, your napkin
sketch is the best one. Hey, this is Craig and
Ken from the Frugal Firearms Podcast live at
SHOT Show 2026. And we are with Chris, who is
the CEO, correct? CEO, president, owner. Everything?
Yeah, chief bottle washer. You're the everything?
Yeah. Of Yankee Hill Manufacturing. And we have
been chasing this company for a really long time
because we know that they're great in the value
space. But you know what? We're going to talk
about primarily today's suppressors. You know,
if you've heard our shows before, you know that
we're from California, and having a suppressor
sent to us for the purpose of testing, yeah.
We'd enjoy it for a few minutes before the feds
show up and arrest us. Yeah, so. Ken, you've
got some Yankee Hill manufacturing products on
your guns before. What do you have that's not
suppressors? I have the backup iron sights. So
do I. Those are great. Those are great. And they
have flash suppressors, and they have rails,
and they have a lot of different products. Right.
But right now, since we are now at the, apparently,
the suppressor and hunting outdoor trade show.
Everything is suppressors at this show. It's
all about suppressors this year. It's all about
quiet. It's all about suppressors, and sadly,
it's nothing about California. But YHM has been
in the space for a while now, and what we're
going to talk about, by the way, this is a lot
like, for you drinkers out there, Ken is not
one of those. Not one of those. Yeah, this is
like Jack Daniels. I'm the designated driver.
You can make the product, but you can't use the
product. Right. And that goes right to the core
of the problem that YHM has. So, Chris, go ahead
and take my mic and take over, sir. Sure. So,
yeah, like you said, we're kind of in the Jack.
Daniels situation, where we can make the product
in Massachusetts, but we can't sell our own product
within the state. Even using it is tricky if
you want to go by our Attorney General's rules.
So I kind of like to say we're made in Massachusetts
and sold to America. Apparently that makes California
also not part of America, so sorry. Yeah, sadly
it's true. There's lots of parts that are not
in America right now, including Washington and
Oregon and places like that. What you've got,
your primary product right now, you want to talk
about your suppressors. So why don't you go ahead
and grab one and then tell us. I'll hold the
mic for you while you're demoing it. What's special
about it? It looks modular to me, and I think
that is a great advantage. You'll want to talk
about why it's modular and then talk about things
like why you're a good value in the space. And
by the way, listeners, I... unable to use this
product in california at least presently had
to do some homework so what homework did i do
i went by the silencer shop smooth over here
at shot show and what did i ask him i said hey
if you guys will you represent lots of brands
did you say over something like 62 i believe
like 62 brands if if they represent that many
brands which ones do you consider to be the best
values and they gave me three companies And YHM
was one of them. So that's why we're here, because
someone we trust is actually saying that they're
the best values. So, Chris, I'll hold the mic.
You tell me about that product. Yeah, I think
you hit the nail on the head with kind of YHM's
whole philosophy of best value. You know, we
don't want to be the cheapest guys. We don't
want to be the most expensive guys. We want to
be the guys who put out a quality product that
the average shooter, hunter, individual can enjoy
without having to take out a second mortgage.
Now, that's a shotgun suppressor, right? Yep.
This is our Victor 20 shotgun suppressor, 20
gauge. And as an acoustics engineer, so I know
what a decibel is, how many dB are you taking
out of that and how much is that increasing,
let's say, the longevity of someone's hearing
or the enjoyment that they get or everything
else? Yeah, so in the 20 gauge version, we're
about 132 decibels. measured at the shooter's
ear so for reference guys that's 132 db is not
something you want to have continuous noise but
remember this is just a noise that is very momentary
and do you happen to know i think i do how many
decibels the same gun would put out unsuppressed?
It's above 160, probably closer to 165. Now,
do you think that that is an equation that is,
well, they're a quarter more loud? No, because
decibels don't add up that way. It's many, many,
many times louder going from 130s to the 160s
or 170s. Logarithmic scale, correct? Logarithmic
scale, yes. I feel like we need the whiteboard
and back now. That's right. Hold on. I'm sorry.
You know, I can always add that later for those
who want to do a map. I don't think too many.
That's what I do for a living, but I don't think
other people want to do that. Yeah. So a lot
of companies throw around the word hearing safe.
I don't like to use that term. Hearing safe,
meaning OSHA has basically studied and said that
impulse noise is like a gunshot. Anything under
140 decibels is not likely to cause permanent
hearing damage. And so suppressor companies throw
around this idea that it's hearing safe if it's
under 140 decibels. It's hearing safe for one
shot because sound is like radiation. It's exposure
over time. Right. So that's exactly right, guys.
And it's not a tipping point thing where 141
is bad and 139 is perfectly OK. It does not work
that way. So even at 132 decibels, you know,
you fire two shots in an eight hour period and
you're above that limit threshold. Exactly. Exactly.
So tell us about. You know, the innovation here
to me seems to be not just the modularity and
why maybe you would want modularity in a shotgun
suppressor, but also the fact that most of the
volume of the thing is down below. And I haven't
seen that. I'm not saying it's exclusive, but
I haven't seen it in other designs. Yeah, well,
there's a few reasons for that. First of all,
you picked up on the modularity. Obviously, that's
important because it allows the user to customize
the suppressor to their specific needs. If you
want to shoot this down into the 4 -inch configuration
because you're going to be hunting grouse through
brush and you need to be able to swing quickly
and you're willing to give up some of the sound
reduction, that becomes about 138 decibels in
the 4 -inch configuration. And so you can kind
of tailor it to your specific needs. And then
to the other point, most of the volume is below
the bore. And that kind of works twofold. Number
one is it lets you use your standard beads. So
you don't have to do optics or crazy sights or
anything on your shotgun. You don't have to do
a whole bunch of modifications. And two, because
you are shooting, you know... shotgun ammunition
which has wads and cups and discs and all kinds
of different things it's a very different beast
than a rifle suppressor things that open up as
soon as it leaves the bore yes things that open
up things that have a tendency to move and wander
and so over time eventually you're going to get
a piece of a wad or you know unburnt powder or
something that's going to be trapped in suppressor
and this way it allows it to fall out of the
way of the bore so you can continue shooting
until you go and take it apart to do your maintenance
you wouldn't even know that there was anything
in there And it's just kind of an inevitability
with a shotgun. Eventually you're going to get
something in there. This keeps it out of harm's
way so you can continue shooting. So you are
not following the model of a lot of companies
that are using 3D printing, which are incredibly
complicated in some cases. And they look to me
like you're never going to be able to clean this
thing, except maybe by dunking it and solvent
and shaking it and hoping everything comes out.
You can actually inspect everything in there.
What kind of maintenance cycle do you recommend
for this? So we recommend at a minimum, if you
spend a day at the range or, you know, a hunting
trip, at least take it apart. Make sure that
there's nothing that looks out of sorts. But
just general cleaning every, you know, 500 rounds
or so. Take it apart. Give it a scrub. Give it
a soak. The material is 7075 aluminum for the
outer shell. And then the cones and baffles inside
are all 17 -4 stainless steel. So any solvent
or anything you want to use isn't going to touch
the stainless. But some of the more aggressive
stuff will affect the aluminum. So basically
anything you would clean your gun in, you're
going to be able to clean your suppressor. And
since it's modular, you can actually do that.
Take it right apart and view each individual
baffle and say, like, this one I need to get
the toothbrush in there and scrape. And this
one at the end, all I need to do is give it a
little dunk and wipe. Ken once had a parts washer
that didn't work out very well. Don't go there.
That's a bad. See, I had a parts washer I purchased
once, and it lasted about 20 minutes before it
died. And there's a roll. The actual parts washer.
You killed the parts washer with the solvent
you put in it. Wrong solvent went into it, and
it destroyed the parts washer. Yes, that's a
separate issue. On some of our older suppressors.
particularly 22s that were all aluminum and needed
constant cleaning. We had some people that would
run the dip. Anyone in the suppressor world knows
what that is. And they would come back to that
in the morning, and they were like, oh, my can
is either missing or it's Swiss cheese now because
it would eat right through the aluminum. Yeah,
completely. Now, tell me about it. Is this safe
for birdshot, buckshot, slugs? I mean, are there
any rounds? Since shotgun fires so many different
types of things, are there any things that you
shouldn't run through it? The only thing that
we recommend you don't run through it is like
the flight control wads. Those are basically
their whole mantra is, you know, any gun, any
choke, it's going to work. And so basically it's
designed to kind of puff up and fit whatever
you're shooting it through. And it doesn't like
to do that, you know, eight to ten times in a
row down through the suppressor. Yeah, okay,
I get it. It doesn't cause any damage to the
suppressor, but we find an excess amount of wad
material in there. And so we recommend you don't
use that. Okay, okay. So we're not also, I hadn't
even thought of this until now. You're going
to use a cylindrical choke? So, yeah, with the
chokes in here, it ships with the improved cylinder.
Oh, it does have a choke built into it. Okay.
I wasn't sure that that was actually a choke
that was in there. I thought it was actually
part of just the entire disassembly of the unit.
Yeah, no, the choke is its own separate piece,
so it's going to ship with an improved cylinder
choke. And then for the 20, we have modified
and full available. And for the 12, we have modified
full turkey and skeet as well. You use a standard
thread choke size, like I think Remington. Browning
Satori has a different choke thread? This is
proprietary just because only our chokes are
going to fit in there. You're not going to take
a Carlson's choke that's three inches long and
fit it in that space. Okay, got it. But to that
point, the mounting system uses the choke threads
of the firearm, but it's only using that to mount
the suppressor to the firearm. The actual choking
of the shot happens at the muzzle. So just like
an unsuppressed shotgun, the last thing that
that shot and that wad sees is the choke. I started
the conversation a little earlier before we started
filming, but my understanding is that for the
purposes of the law, only the back piece is the
registered piece. Until the NFA goes away, that's
another topic. We're not going down that road
right now because we don't know what's going
to happen. You must have the back piece on because
that's the serialized piece. Up ahead of that
is simply the number of baffles you decide to
include. Yeah, modular suppressors are a little
bit tricky, mainly because the ATF keeps flip
-flopping on what they consider a suppressor,
what they consider extra parts, what they consider
spare parts. But at this point in time, yes,
kind of the keystone component is the mount of
the suppressor because you can't mount it to
the firearm and you can't mount any baffles to
that without that piece. So that's the piece
that we serialize. We ship it in its full -length
configuration, and the ATF has said you can make
the suppressors shorter, but you can't make them
longer. If you make it longer, then they consider
that being a whole new suppressor. Yeah, it makes
about as much sense as it sounds. Government
regulation, you've got to love it, yeah. They
didn't offer rationale as to why, did they? No,
but they don't have to, so they don't. Well,
they would change their mind anyway if that was
the case. Tell us a little bit about the background
of the company. I mean, before suppressors and
stuff like that, and all the stuff you used to
do before suppressors were maybe the main focal
point. Yeah, well, you guys mentioned it. You
know us for backup sites, handguards, and muzzle
devices. For years and years and years, that
was our bread and butter product. If you look
at a Bushmaster catalog in the 90s, their BMAS
accessory line was 99 % YHM parts. Yeah, YHM.
We developed and produced and basically sold
to them, along with other third -party labels.
And in the late 90s, my father, who was the CEO
at the time, basically said, you know, we've
developed all these great products that the OEMs
haven't picked up. Let's market these products
under our own label. And so that led to YHM,
the brand, as opposed to YHM, the machine shop.
Ah, I see. And YHM is actually a location, isn't
it? I mean, Yankee Hill is a little tiny community
in western Massachusetts. Is that right? Yeah.
So if you look at like the Northampton Leeds
area, Yankee Hill is kind of a local neighborhood.
You won't find it on a map or anything like that.
But that's where it got its name from because
the garage that they started it in was in an
area known as Yankee Hill. And so it was the
Yankee Hill Machine Shop. So who do you hire,
and what does your team look like? I mean, we
have one of your team members holding my phone
right now. So he's doing a fantastic job, and
his arms are probably getting tired. He's probably
wondering how much longer we're going to film.
But at the same time, who comprises your team?
And maybe a little bit of background about why
should someone choose your products over the
next guy down the road? Well, my team at this
point is quite large. We're just under 50 employees.
We've obviously got myself. and some management,
kind of keeping track of different departments.
But YHM is in a unique position where we do everything
in the product development cycle. So I've got
people who just do R &D work and produce prototype
products. I've got engineers that just make those
prototype products and do production -ready products.
I've got graphic artists and people in marketing
backgrounds to market and sell the product and
do the manuals and do the packaging. obviously
machinists who make the product who make the
things i've got people who assemble and package
the product and then i've got a sales team who
actually markets the product out to the general
public and then i've got a fulfillment team who
actually puts the stuff in boxes and make sure
it goes where it needs to go how do you come
up with new product ideas is is that just a you
know sit around on a friday after work with a
you know with a drink in your hand and and brainstorm
or is it driven by let's say other market influences
it's a little bit about so sometimes it's just
a creative thing that happens, I wake up with
an idea in my head and say, hey, guys, I want
to try this. Let's see what we do to make it
work. And do they go, oh, no, not again? No,
they're pretty good about it. When I used to
be in that position with my father and he'd come
in and say he had a new idea, sometimes it was
like, oh, boy, what's taking me? Uh -oh, where
are we going now? Yeah, I can imagine. And sometimes
their product ideas come from my design team
and they say, we want to try this. You know,
the V20 was a direct result of that. They were
like, you know, we've got the V12. Well, let's
scale it down to 20 gauge and see how it sounds.
And it sounds phenomenal. Is there a market for
16 gauge or 10 gauge or anything else? I think
there's a very limited market. I can't say that
it fits our design philosophy of kind of making
it affordable to the masses. Right. I think it
would be so niche. We wouldn't be able to make
enough of them to kind of get that, you know,
quantity of scale to keep price down. So tell
us about warranties. So the YChem product has
a limited lifetime warranty. Basically, if it's
something that we did, so if it's a defect in
the material itself for the manufacturing process,
we'll warrant that 100%, whether that looks like
a repair or a replacement or whatever it is.
If it's something that the customer does, the
item of warranty, we do have kind of a grace
period where the suppressors will say, okay.
We're not going to leave you completely on the
hook here because, you know, you did something
stupid or uneducated. Right. So we're able to
get that suppressor or the newest replacement
into their hands for 50 % off MSRP. Well, that's
fair. I mean, you can't cover everything forever
and never expect. And being modular, I mean,
if you damage for somehow you damage one or two
of these baffled areas, you can switch those
out without too much difficulty. Yeah, basically
the suppressor comes back to us, and then we
swap out the damage components. And even in the
non -modular ones, most of them are constructed
in a way that we can repair them and don't have
to replace the entire suppressor 99 % of the
time. Very good. What happens in the 1 % of the
time? The 1 % of the time, luckily, it's not
as big of a deal now that we have the $0 tax
stamp and 5 -day turnarounds for forms. So now
basically it looks like, okay, we're going to
send a... suppressor to the dealer of your choice
they process the form four and you've got a brand
new suppressor so what's coming up for yankee
hill in terms of new products new ideas and and
maybe talk a little bit about the you know the
rest of your product line there's a couple things
here on the table that we haven't discussed yet
you're not just suppressors and if suppressors
Let's just say went away tomorrow. You know,
the Supreme Court said, you know what, suppressors,
we're not doing that. And then you'd still have
a business to maintain and a team to maintain.
You know, what else you got and what else is
coming up? Yeah, well, we kind of have the trifecta.
We do the suppressor lineup. We do the parts
and accessories that we used to be well known
for. 20 years ago, coming to SHOT Show and I
first started coming to the show, people would
come in and say, oh, yeah, I know your hand guards
and your sights and whatever. And I see you also
have a suppressor or maybe two at the time. And
now it's a total flip -flop where people come
in and see the suppressors, and they're like,
I didn't know you made all these parts and accessories.
And it's like, yeah, we've been doing that for
50 years. Is that how you're going to stay in
front of the suppressor market with so many new
entries into the market? Because like I said,
you cannot, I mean, you're not seeing this, but
yeah, 60 -plus vendors who are out there selling
their own designs. Yeah, and that's only, now
wait, you know what? That's only through the
suppressor store. Right. Yeah, that's true. And
there's other vendors out there and ones that
they simply don't cover. So how does a person,
how do you make a choice? I think the choice
is obvious when it comes to YHM because you get
such a value for the price. And as far as, you
know, what do we think of these? you know, pop
-ups and things like that. We've seen it before.
We've been around for three generations now.
We've seen with 41F in 2016, all of a sudden
everybody was making suppressors because something
was going to change. Whether that was good or
bad, people don't like changes. So if it had
a serial number, it sold in 2016. We saw the
same thing in the 2008 Obama era when there was
constant talk of banning the AR -15. All of a
sudden, everybody and their brother was making
AR -15s and bolt carriers and all kinds of parts.
And the guys like us who have been doing it and
have built a brand and a good reputation, it
was kind of steady business for us. It was business
as usual. So roughly how many states is this
available in? 42. 42 states out of 50. Okay,
Massachusetts, California, who are the other
six? New York, New Jersey, Hawaii definitely,
Rhode Island. Rhode Island is really bad. They
actually just rewrote their laws to try to make
it better for police, but I think they kind of
wrote themselves into a corner. Of course, you
know, Chicago, Illinois area, they're still out
of it. And I'm an ASA board member, too. I don't
know if Tim talked about that. No, you need to
talk about that. So I don't know what ASA is.
American Suppressor Association. Okay, that's
correct. Okay, if I knew, it doesn't mean the
listeners know. Well, now they know what it is.
What do we do? Yeah, what do you do? How are
you on the board? So much like the NSSF, it's
a trade organization, but based around silencers
and suppressors. And their goal is to totally
deregulate suppressors in the United States.
It's safety equipment. Yeah. And so they've been
working very hard for over a decade, 15, 20 years
at this point, lobbying and introducing bills
and going to testify and try to fight bad bills
to increase suppressor ownership. And they've
been very successful on the state level of getting
more states on. They've done a fantastic job
of states that used to allow suppressed shooting
but not suppressed hunting. to allow hunting
in those states using suppressors as well. Okay.
And so that's how we've gotten that number up
to the 42 states where we are now. Where was
it when you started? I think it was about 36
states. Okay. That's progress. Yeah, because
some of them are just going to be really hard
cases. Hawaii, New Jersey, California, Massachusetts.
They're going to be hard cases no matter what.
Right. There's certain states that just because
it's... tangential to guns, it's going to be
an instant no. They don't care to learn more.
They don't care to find out what the reality
of this thing is. It's just, oh, it's gun -related?
No, nothing to do with that. So are you going
to be able to... Let's say California opens up,
which is a big market. Are you going to be able
to scale to that? Oh yeah, absolutely. That's
one of the great things is being in the position
of, we make the stuff, not we get it in from
someone else and put it together. I just make
more. So your stuff is made in the USA? It's
all made in the USA, yep, with USA -sourced materials
whenever physically possible. Do you happen to
know how many of your competitors are using USA,
let's say, sourced parts? I don't know that off
the top of my head, and whatever numbers they
throw out there, it's difficult to verify anyway.
But for the most part, the suppressor manufacturers
are all, you know, pulling for USA -made. So
you listeners have heard us say before that,
you know, hey, the reality of frugal in the firearms
industry, actually almost any industry right
now, is there's a lot of imports, and you just
have to accept that and try to pass laws and
try to encourage companies to manufacture in
the United States. But it doesn't mean it's going
to happen, and it doesn't mean it's going to
happen soon. So you have to appreciate that these
guys are actually building stuff and have been
in the United States. What else you got for us,
Chris? Well, I don't know if you've seen, but
we seem to have this diamond logo all over everything.
2026 is our 75th anniversary. Wow. So 75 years
we've come from making screw machine parts in
a garage to making AR -15 parts to being a nationally
recognized suppressor manufacturer that we are
today. Very good. I hope you have a good succession
plan. I do. I have a succession outline. Good,
good, good. Yeah, I know with a lot of companies,
that's hard to find. Maybe passing it on to the
son or daughter isn't always the right thing
to do from a business perspective. Depends on
the family. So I know that they have a very big,
how are we going to replace Tim Cook? But they
replaced Steve Jobs, and it's worked out. So
it's a possible thing to do. Every year, you're
in the same spot here in the law enforcement
section of the show. For those who can make...
it to the show yeah but let's say you can't come
to shot where do people find your stuff is it
just online is it locally sourced is it through
various distributors how do you do it uh yes
So we have two -strip distribution who supplies
the dealer networks out there. We also do dealer
direct sales. So if a shop out there wants to
buy one of something and maybe for whatever reason
doesn't qualify or doesn't work with a distributor
who carries our product, we do sell direct as
well. And then everything basically without a
serial number on it, we also sell retail on the
web at YHM .net. And how much of the business
is moving toward maybe as a percentage towards
suppressors? I would say we're probably 85 %
or better suppressor. Wow, really? That's a big
swing from where you've been in the past. Now,
obviously, that's a little bit skewed because
you were talking about, you know, sites and parts
and widgets. Those are a lower dollar item. The
suppressors are a higher dollar item. So it depends
if you're looking at volumes of dollars or volumes
of parts. Got it. Got it. Any other anecdotal
stories, funny stuff, things you want to pass
on? So I always like to share this story. Part
of our development process is we get a suppressor
together and we go, yeah, this looks really good.
It sounds good. It does everything we want it
to do. Let's flip it around and shoot it backwards.
And you'd be surprised how many times we do that.
We're like, oh, it sounds a little bit better
this way. Even after doing this for suppressors
alone for 20 -plus years, it still surprises
us sometimes when we get a design that just works
the way we want it to. We try to flip it, and
it works. We've even done that with competitors'
products, and we're just like, okay, we've got
it in. Let's build the jig to shoot it backwards.
This is significantly quieter than I never thought
to try this. Wow. You know, one of your competitors,
I'm not... going to name it but they actually
have an idea these guys just make modular stuff
nothing else and they actually have a challenge
for their people to like we think we got it right
but we'll give you a reward if you can make it
quieter than us but i don't know how they're
testing it and there's a lot of ways i'll tell
you guys something about audio i learned this
in my first two weeks as an audio engineer Audio
is the only area of engineering, I was told,
where you can be wrong by 50 % and still have
a good answer. So, yeah. I believe it. What really
matters, though, here is the quality of the product,
the price point of the product, the value of
the product. They stand behind their warranty.
And at the same time, you're protecting your
hearing. Protecting your hearing. You cannot
replace that. Any other comments for us, Chris?
I'm a testament to that. And that hearing safe
number, I've got a hearing aid in both ears because,
oh, hearing safe. Every suppressed shot I take
is hearing safe. And from years of shooting unsuppressed
and then additional years of shooting suppressed,
thinking I was hearing safe, I have a hearing
aid now at 45. Yeah. That's a very youthful 45,
though, Chris, I'll tell you that. Thank you.
You're wearing it well. Ken, what else you got?
I appreciate the opportunity. I actually have
some ideas of my own, but I'm not a manufacturer,
and I live in a state where I can't do anything.
Well, maybe Chris will hire you as a design engineer
or something like that. We'll see. Some outside
consulting, maybe. We'll see. Yeah. Yeah. We
introduced the Victor 12 last year. And at that
point, it was one of only a very small handful
of commercially available shotgun suppressors.
And we had salespeople and engineers coming from
other companies and going, wow, we really like
this. Like, you know, we wish we had been given
more time to develop ours further and to do things
a little different. And I approach every product
with a mentality of I'm not I didn't do a 12
gauge shotgun suppressor just to say we can make
a shotgun suppressor now. It had to be a good
12 -gauge shotgun suppressor. And I don't want
to badmouth anybody, but I kind of got the feeling
like a lot of these guys were just told we need
a 12 -gauge suppressor. And that was the end
of the conversation. Well, it's your management
style because a lot of times the boss will come
down and say, make this happen. I'm going to
go play golf. Right. Yeah. My engineers were
very upset because I kind of gave them a napkin
sketch and said, I've been toying around with
this idea for years. What do you think? And they
come up with their own ideas and try other stuff.
And after three or four months of development,
they're like, your napkin sketch is the best
one. And they're not just saying that because
you pay the bill. No, they were very disappointed
that it was the best one because they were like,
all right, we're degree engineers here. We're
going to go do this. do this finite element analysis
and gas flow and stuff and they're like we're
going to make this better and they're like damn
napkin sketch see sometimes actually intuition
is sometimes the best guide yeah and that's why
you're leading the company right all right any
other comments chris no i think they're pretty
much covered pleased happy you know i feel really
blessed to be in the position i am you know as
