Hey All,
When I came up with the idea for News Bursts upon launching Colin's Last Stand's Patreon, I had always intended on interspersing documentary and book recommendations in there as well. Thing is, while I'm reading more voraciously in my scarce spare time since I have in college (five 350+ page books in two months... not terrible), I've not had a chance to watch (nonetheless recommend) many documentaries. (Really anything of note, recently, as sad as that is.)
So, expect ...

Hey Fam,
I hope you’re all doing well! I’m taking a moment away from editing tomorrow’s video to throw up a News Burst (the topic of tomorrow’s video has something to do with XXV… and I’ll leave it there).
But before we get into the news, I wanted to say that I hope all of you Americans out there had a fantastic and fulfilling Fourth of July. Mine was pretty awesome. Quite tranquil and enjoyable, if I do say so myself. I probably gained five pounds, but hey. This is America.<...

Welcome to the first ever Colin's Last Stand Topic Primary, this one for the month of July, 2017.
What do you do? It's simple. If you have access to this tier (you'll know you do because you're reading this), think of a topic you'd want CLS to cover, and post it in the comments. If your idea is already in the comments, don't post it again! Instead, use the "like" option (the heart) to vote for that topic.
You can vote for as many topics as you'd like (though I ask that you only sub...

Hello, and happy July!
I wanted to take a brief moment to announce a couple of new additions to Patreon, additions I decided to make after combing through the feedback many of you provided when I asked for it some weeks back.
There are two additions and an upcoming change I wanted to highlight, in particular:
1.) The biggest piece of feedback I received, by far, is that people wanted a way to choose topics I will cover in future episodes of Colin’s Last Stand. The $2-per-...

Hey All,
As I promised, I'm letting you all know that I'm seeking very temporary part-time help -- a few days at most -- getting someone to come in and consult on CLS' production. Someone who understands all of this shit, and who can set me up to up the production value of the show with a little know-how that I lack.
More details can be found here: 2017-06-30 17:59:40 +0000 UTC

Hey All,
I just finished rendering tomorrow’s (or today’s, I should say) video. I hope you like it when it goes live at 9a PT (as always).
There’s not an incredible amount going on in the news right now that I find all that interesting, so I thought today’s News Burst would instead focus on two rather random stories, along with some clarity on an ongoing saga here in the States.
Let’s start with the latter first, shall we?

Hi!
I hope you all enjoyed your weekend! I just finished uploading tomorrow’s video, which, as I promised last week, will be returning to history and away from politics and contemporary coverage (which was hard for me to do, since something happened that I wanted to a video on… but I may just do the video on Thursday instead). As always, the video goes live at 9a PT. I hope you all enjoy it!
This month is almost through, so for those of you who -- at the appropriate levels -- havenâ...

Hello!
I hope this News Burst finds you all very well.
You may remember that, some days ago, I reached out to ask for input into how I might improve Patreon, keep people engaged, and draw in some new folks. There was one common and popular suggestion, in particular, that I am going to be adding to CLS’ Patreon on July 1st. I’ll keep it a secret until then, but I wanted to take a moment to nonetheless thank you all for your input, which I scoured over and took into consideration. Itâ...

Hello!
I hope today’s (or should I say this evening’s) News Burst finds you very well. I wanted to wait until the Special Election results rolled in from a couple of Congressional races here in the States, and now that they’re in and they’re conclusive, it’s go-time. And so I write.
There's little else to report, otherwise. I had an idea for Thursday’s episode of CLS; pivoted this afternoon to another idea. Now, I’m pivoting to yet another idea. Life moves fast, my friends...

Hey All,
I'm not going to wholesale repost here what I just posted at Reddit and Facebook, because not everyone will be interested in partaking. But I'm hoping that some of you can follow this link to Reddit and post here (or there, if you want) with any feedback you might have when it comes to CLS' Patreon.
There are no right or wrong answers, nothing is out of bounds, and all feedback is welcome.
Thank you so much for your time! I hope you're all well. -Colin

Hey All,
I hope you’re doing well, and that the weekend is treating you right so far. I’m back in Santa Monica, getting back into the swing of things, and preparing next week’s videos. Not sure which will go live on Monday -- I’m leaning towards one in particular -- but I think both topics I have planned for the week are going to be interesting for a lot of people. At least, that’s my hope.
As a note, if you’re one of the rare $100/month subs on CLS’ Patreon, and you’ve b...

I hope you’re all doing well!
I’m in Vegas, having a fantastic mini-vacation. All I’ve basically done is sit by the pool and chain-smoke, read, drink, and swim the last two days. It’s been an awesome time. Got back to the room today, fell asleep for like three hours, and now Erin and I are gonna go out to eat once she returns from grabbing something at Walgreen’s.
I love Vegas in that respect. You can do whatever you want, whenever you want to do it. Time me...

Hey Fam,
I hope you’re all doing very well, and that the weekend is treating you well so far.
Just as a reminder -- as I posted the other day -- this coming week will only have a single video. It’ll post on Wednesday, and it’s on a topic a ton of people requested, so I hope you enjoy it. I’ll be bringing my laptop to Vegas to try to answer comments and hopefully post a News Burst (maybe two), but just as a friendly heads-up in case you missed the original post the other day.
