Okay, I definitely wanted to share a little bit more about the word aloha before we move too far forward.
C
37:07Chad HilwehGUEST
We definitely want to give the recognition to aloha and like how it actually is used.
C
37:23Chad HilwehGUEST
We're not taking the word and just using it for its own purposes like we wanted to definitely give the credit and put a lot of that emphasis on the culture that surrounds the word aloha um that kind of translates through every aspect of the acronym you know we wanted to just make sure that you know uh everybody out there understands what aloha actually truly means it just means to be with spirit, it means to, to have love and compassion and care and community.

37:59Chad HilwehGUEST
And like, it's, it's just to be good human beings, right? It's, it's, it's to say hi and goodbye, but I mean, that's what a lot of people might think it is, but really in reality, it's a way of life to live with Aloha.
C
38:11Chad HilwehGUEST
Um, and that's why our saying, and a lot of our logos and everything, it's your build our Aloha.
