David Maltzer, welcome to the podcast. Welcome to Coming From the Heart. How are you today?

Fantastic. What a great place to come from the heart to and with. And I want to welcome your community and being a part of that is a blessing. So thanks for having and giving me that opportunity to speak with you.

Absolutely. Well, let's just get started here, you know, dive in quickly.

I was on Instagram, always on Instagram looking for different people, different voices,

and I noticed that you were doing this real about your dad. And I immediately connected, honestly,

from my heart to yours. I lost my dad about 10 years ago and definitely was a

struggle after I actually lost both my parents. And you mentioned that your dad basically gave you,

let's see, but they didn't really give you. Let me reference what you were talking about in the real.

What you were saying is that your dad said, are you going, you know,

would you cry? Let me, you should probably verbi. It's something to the extent of feeling very

sad, feeling like you wanted to just not move on. And being that you were part of your dad, as I,

of course, I'm part of my dad and everybody else's part of where they came from is to take that

background of what you've learned from your parent and just explode with it do it and that's kind of how I see my life right now with the podcast

I also love your story about the suit that you can't take your money with you. And that is a classic

line that my dad, even if love my dad, my dad would have said and, you know, all I can say is

welcome to this podcast. Thank you for your voice. You have the voice and you have the voice.

And you remind me of my uncle Bill.

Only in a really, really good way.

You're a sports executive.
