00:33We have never been nominated or honored for anything, for all the hard work we've done

00:41nine seasons in, and you see the tears.

00:44I just feel deeply appreciative and grateful for this honor.

00:49We will not take it for granted, and we will continue to show up.

00:52These tears are tears of hard work, discipline, focus, joy, and growth.

00:57We owe it to the fans, and y'all have repaid us, and we want to thank you.
