“Oh, I'll, let me butter up a friend of mine. I'll call Akshat Radhi the next pop culture disruptor. He's the CEO of Nordwind Gaming. He's the gentleman who acquired our company, but he's also acquired many other IPs and he's trying to build new IPs. So I'm sure he'll be successful at it. And if he does it the way he's planning to, then he'll certainly be a massive disruptor.”
