All right, guys, welcome back to the Hardman podcast.

My name is Tate Taylor.

I'm here with Pastor Ethan Sin.

Just got out of school.

Today was, oh, you guys had one more day tomorrow.

One more day, yeah, four day school week.

But yeah, it's been going great.

Awesome.

So the reason for no cold open on this one is that we're actually just kind of responding to some viewer questions.

Basically, we've had a bunch of people who have been longtime listeners of the show, uh, kind of message us and go,

all right, where, where did Eric go? Like, what, what, what happened to Eric? Who are you guys? Where'd you come from? Uh, and so we kind of wanted to respond to some of that and kind of explain who we are, how we, how we came about this. Give some background. Yeah. Just like, get, get to know us a little bit. Obviously,

we know each other really well,

but, uh, this is going to be fun because we, we have a couple like background, like how long you've been married, how many kids do you have, stuff like that. And then we asked our wives to write questions. So they wrote a series of questions, um, that I think are going to be really interesting.

So we'll get into that as soon as we kind of do the background stuff. They were extremely thorough in this task. We were like, hey, what do you think about this? And they like took it and right. Actually, they may have even come up with the idea of doing the questions. I can remember. They're like, hey, we'll write the questions for you. Yeah. It's like a psyche, though.

Yeah. Yeah, so it should be good. But let's kind of do some of that basic background stuff. Where do you want to start?

Let's start with them. How long you've been married? How did you meet your wife?

Met my wife right before I graduated high school. We were from the same really small area, or a really small town area, rural area in East Texas.

She lived right down the road growing up like 12, 13 miles.

We didn't really know each other.

We knew of each other up until late in our senior year of high school met each other through some mutual

friends and started hanging out and then started dating basically going into our freshman year

of college we have been married eight years as of the beginning of September actually so
