And today My conversation with Song Laron, the co founder of Squire. Squire is an app that connects barbershops with clients. Song founded Squire in 2016 with his best friend, Dave Salvent, to modernize the barbershop experience. And nowadays, their app is not only booking appointments, But also helping barbershops stay open, if they're allowed to. I spoke a song a few days ago about Squire and the barbershop industry, but first.

Song that He actually wasn't at home. I should mention that you are actually in an office of a barber shop right now in Connecticut. Can you hear it? Um that's fine. That's fine. Um so so first of all, our our barber shops in Connecticut

Open. Yes, yes, they are. Um they are open, I think. Connecticut is probably phase three or or whatever the phases where barbershops and other service based businesses are open. So yeah, they're open they're open for business. And what's the protocol in there? Are the barbers wearing masks and the customers wearing masks? Barbers wear masks, customers wear masks, uh there's no waiting. In the barber shop anymore.
