29:27 Jason — The SaaStr conference business model must be brutal. But you are beloved by the entire SaaS community; you’re our godfather, muse, and adviser—all wrapped into one. And you’ve allowed (literally) thousands of entrepreneurs to build businesses and change the world because of your organization of the community and all your knowledge. So even if SaaStr isn’t the greatest financial model in the world, just know you’re leaving an indelible mark on this wild time in human history, and without you, it couldn’t have happened the way it did. We cherish and appreciate you!!
