Hey, welcome to the Revenue Builders podcast. I'm John McMahon. I'm here with John Kaplan. It's the end of the year and we're looking back at a few things that we did throughout the year that kind of some highlights. What do you think, Cap?

Well, buddy, I just want to thank all the listeners. I want to wish everybody a great end of year and beginning of next year. I got a few episodes if you want to riff on some of those as some of the things that just. It's tough to do these, Johnny, when the producer says, hey, you know, just highlight some of the. Highlight some of the ones that stuck out. They all stuck out. I thought 2025 was an incredible year. Doug Holiday series on rethinking success and we're still in that. We'll continue that in 2026. All of Ann Gary's work on champions and economic buyers was incredible. Marcello Gallo and Bobby Morrison on AI driven sales innovation. Those were incredible. How about Steve Wa on his big deal? So many people came back and told us about, you know, how much they appreciated that Mike Hayes and his, his book Mission Driven and all the great work that he does. Steve Garrity ripped my face off on the cancer survivor and telling his story. I love that. And then the Dean Auto one on, you know, on resilience, getting, you know, hit on his bicycle and turning around and the road to forgiveness. And those are just a sample of some that just kind of really stuck out to me. But I loved all of them in 2025. Johnny. It was a great year, man.

Yeah, there was a lot of variation too. You know, we had like Steve Wa and Jane Thompson, who are big, you know, elephant hunters, so to speak. They know how to go out and get really big sales deals. We had the one that Steve Garrity know, cancer survivor and, you know, top, top leader. I think he's at Oracle right now. I'd like the Megan Gill one, which is a little different.

Oh, great one.

The VP of Sales Operations. Yeah, MongoDB. You know, how can you not like Mike Hayes and what he does? He wrote another book called Mission Driven and Mike Hayes is just a world class person, world class character. I like the Chris Vick one on Pipeline Generation. I think really good job there. We don't typically get that narrow, but Chris did a wonderful job there. Bobby Morrison was really outstanding. There's a guy that's on, on top of his game. And then finally, how can you not like Doug Holiday in the series that we do with him? He's just A wow. He's just a diff. He's a wonderfully different person. He's so authentic, so genuine, and so heartwarming. It's hard not to love that guy.
