Surprise - you can watch the blogs now too!
During a year that started with a storming of the U.S. Capitol, continued with a billionaire's space race, and seems to be ending with more and more waves of COVID - we finally made it to Christmas.
In light of the holiday season coming to its peak, I'd like to share a few thoughts about the most wonderful time of the year. A time spent with those you love - and those you have to love.

What I'm Thankful For
It's hard to go through my daily life without a smile on my face and that is due, almost entirely, to the wonderful people I've been blessed to surround myself with.
I'm thankful for the friends I've known since childhood - you guys and gals have stood the test of time and throughout the years we've been able to amass quite the book of memories. Despite the fact that our time together is less than it used to be, I'm thankful that the moments and laughs that we do still share feel the same as always.
"I wish there was a way to know you're in the good ole days - before you've actually left them."
I'm thankful for my family - my biggest fans. These best friends that I get to call family are surely some of those that I'm most thankful for. I couldn't imagine where I'd be without the motivation and support from those closest to me. Thank you for the laughs, the dedication, and for being those that I not only have to love, but choose to love.
I'm thankful for my beautiful girlfriend, Rachel, and our pup, Murphy. These two make every day something to be thankful for because of the memories, laughs, and time that we get to share together. I thank God for these two every day.
Lastly, I'm thankful for you guys - the readers. Without your subscriptions I wouldn't be able to continue operating my website and interviewing incredible guests. I hope you continue being a part of my journey as we enter the new year with some exciting changes!
A Message For Hope
This Christmas, I encourage you all to take a moment to relax.
Despite the hectic lives that we all live, it's important to set aside time to do the things you love. Make sure to be present in the moment when you're speaking with family and friends.
I hope during your Christmas celebrations you're able to forget about the crazy world we live in. I hope you talk more about each other and less about the news. I hope you get some much needed rest. I hope your heart is more full than your stomach - and most of all - I hope you remain happy, healthy, and ready for a great new year.
Exclusive Content
I'll keep this short and sweet - due to the amount of people who have subscribed to the blog, and the plans I have for 2022, I think it's time we reward those who have been with me since the beginning.
If you subscribe to the blog before the new year (or are already subscribed) then you will have access to an "inaugural members" newsletter that will showcase exclusive interviews with notable guests, in-depth news on the progress of my latest projects, and will even include special discount codes to some of my favorite places.
So why miss out?
Final Thoughts
It's Christmas day - go hang out with your family.
I wish each and every one of you who opened this post a very Merry Christmas.
Much love,
Vin
