Hey everyone. Welcome back to The Handelbar Podcasts. We're so excited for our guests today.

We are so excited for our guests. We have some very special friends with us.

We do. But first, Aaron is going to tell you guys a little bit about who's sponsoring the season for us. Let me tell you about our sponsor. Our sponsor is Kairnett. So Karenet is a pregnancy crisis center. So if you center. So if you have found yourself in an unplanned pregnancy, that is it, unplanned pregnancy pregnancy. You, someone you know, a loved one,

and you don't know what to do, we want to tell you, I'm looking at the camera now because I'm

telling the listener here, but there's options for you. There are options and you do have help.

And so CareNet is a nonprofit. They are across the United States. They are biblically founded. they love Jesus, and they wanna help you. And so if you or someone you know is in a situation of an unplanned pregnancy and you don't know what to do, you don't know what your options are, I wanna tell you do have options and you do have help. So we love Kiernet, you can find out more about Karenet, the link in the description below in this episode. So shout

out to Kiernet. We love you. Let's get to the episode. Let's do it. All right. I am so excited for who we are sitting with, I almost said across the table, but it's like a little coffee table. We have a tiny table. Living room, this tiny table. Okay, you're going to have to correct me if I say it wrong. Is it

Heligandthaw? Andrey, this is you.

Very close. Oh! living room this tiny table okay you're gonna have to correct me if I say it wrong is it

heliginthaw and this is you very close oh man okay this is where we need the drum roll this is where

this is the debate's got it in here how do you pronounce high ligenthal highligenthal oh my goodness

but i feel like so many people say hell oh we have everybody so you just i Everybody. So you just... I don't hear it anymore. I just am like, yeah, if you, if it starts with an age, if it's 12 syllables, and if you tried, it's our last name. You get points. So it's Heiligenthal. That was perfect. What is the origin? It's German. All German. Here's something cool, though. It means Holy Valley, which is pretty epic. And I feel like we've earned that with having to spell it out every time, having a meaning that's kind of cool. So there you go. I mean, speaking as the one, not the originator, but the fact that I'm the one that had this name. That's true. It came from you. Yeah, it is a journey. It is a journey. I've been called lots of things. My high school football coach looked at the roster, and I was not good at football, but he pronounced it highly gentle. And so that was my football nickname. You don't wanna to hear that in a football contact. Kindly gentle.

Like for short, they literally called me on the football team.

They call me gentle.
