Pepper Miller: I'm delighted to be here, Jamin, and I love your name, by the way. That's a very cool name.
[00:00:51]
Jamin Brazil: Thank you very much. I owe it all to my parents. I did it. I was going to say, "I did a good job picking."
[00:00:57]
Pepper Miller: I love that. That's right. We pick them.
[00:01:01]
Jamin Brazil: Anyway, so well, speaking of parents, tell me a little bit about your parents and how they informed what you do today.
[00:01:07]
Pepper Miller: So my parents, they're both deceased. I miss them a lot. Glad I picked them, to your note. But my parents- so my mom was an educator. And she was adventurous, Jamin. She was really ahead of her time. She had this intellectual curiosity, and I believe I got that from her.

Jamin Brazil: Oh my God.
