Hey Team,
After soliciting a bit of advice from you guys, talking to some folks in my life, and mulling things over on my own (often in the bath very late at night with some bourbon), I've decided on how I'm going to structure my "vacations" away from CLS.
I feel this is important for me to share with you because y'all here are at the center of why this endeavor exists at all. You fund it. So, I want to communicate with you my planned dates and my rationale, so that you can have an...

Hey!
I hope you’re all doing very well, and that you enjoyed your weekend.
Tomorrow’s video is locked-in and ready to go! It’s another “social commentary” video like this past Thursday’s. I hope you like it. (I’m intentionally staying away from one piece of news in this News Burst so as to not be redundant with the video's content, which could be a spoiler. =D.)
Next week, Erin and I are going to Vegas for a few days. We both love it there (a little gambling, a littl...

Hello!
Greetings from Santa Monica. I hope this News Burst finds you very well! This has been an interesting week; much to do, much still to do this weekend. I’m already marinating on both of next week’s videos, and may even record them both tonight (we shall see). One thing I know for sure is I have to get back to House of Cards tonight. Got through the first three-ish episodes of Season 5 last night. It’s so wacky at this point, but I love it. The cinematography, the acting, the writin...

Hey Fam,
I hope you're all doing well!
As I did when I posted the first book review a few weeks ago, I wanted to relay the social media links to the newest review, as they only live on Twitter and Facebook. I know some of you (or many of you) aren't on social media.

Hey!
As May turns into June, I just wanted to thank all of you here for your continued support of Colin’s Last Stand. I value each and every person that subscribes to my YouTube channel, watches a video, and otherwise exists in this growing community. But you -- the Patrons -- are, as I’ve reminded you in the past, the fuel that makes this engine run. Without you, I’d be off doing something else. And I don’t want to do anything else. I want to do this, here, with and for you.
Th...

Hey All,
After thinking about it, I've decided to hold tomorrow's episode of Colin's Last Stand (Episode #17) until Tuesday, May 30th. Tomorrow (Monday, May 29th) is Memorial Day, and I'm frankly fearful that it'll get lost in the shuffle.
It's a good, long episode. It's worth the wait. =)
Thank you for understanding! Take care, -Colin

Hello Guys and Gals,
Happy Sunday! For my many American followers, allow me to wish you a very happy (early) Memorial Day. I hope you enjoy yourselves, find some rest and relaxation, eat some good food, and -- above all else -- don’t lose sight of what the day actually means. Remember to remember, as it were.
Otherwise, I’m about to duck into the studio and use my new camera tripod and lights for the first time. Hopefully it kicks the production value up a bit. I’ll leave that verd...

Hey All,
I hope this News Burst finds you well, and that you’re as excited for the weekend as I am. I’m fucking exhausted. I just wanna curl up, read, eat, and hang out. Erin’s mother is here through the weekend (she’s hilarious), so having a visitor around always keeps me busy, too.
Anyway, not much else to report. If you were at the $50+/month level in April, all postcards are now mailed, so keep an eye out for those, if you haven’t already received one.
Okay, here we g...

Hey All,
I hope this News Burst finds you well! Not much new to report. Thursday’s episode is filmed; just need to edit it tonight and/or tomorrow. It’s a little different in that there’s no script, I have no bullet points, and kinda just shoot from the hip (the only other similar video is the Berkeley one, I’d say). I’ll be interested to see what you think of it.
Otherwise, I’ve been spending, like, way too much time at the beach playing chess. I’ve gone through three mult...

Hey Fam,
I hope you’re well!
Usually, I post these “Weekend News Bursts” on Friday, but I decided to wait until Sunday for things to slow down a bit, because I feel like things I was writing (or was going to write) ran the risk of being outdated or false, considering how fast the narrative is moving, now.
But, with Trump in Saudi Arabia and the press distracted for a bit, it felt like things were slowed down enough that a more conventional news burst, right now,...

Hey All,
Good news: I found this amazing Italian deli in Santa Monica, and now I’m going to gain five pounds a month. As such, I walked 8.2 miles today, all the way to Venice Beach and back. I have to be honest… it was actually really nice. Beautiful weather, good vibes… I’m having a good day.
There’s nothing else to report, other than that I slightly re-edited tomorrow’s video (made it about a minute shorter), and that when I’m done writing this, I’m gonna make a couple ...

Hey Fam,
I hope you’re well! Today’s been… well… interesting. I was pretty much entirely focused and head-down on Thursday’s episode of Colin’s Last Stand (which is already locked, loaded, and ready to go for 9a PT on Thursday morning), so I spent a bit of time today really catching up on all that’s going on with Donald Trump.
Never did I imagine, when I started Colin’s Last Stand not even two months ago, that I’d have so much of what seems like the same ex...

Hi!
The weekend is nearly here. Are you excited? I am! I’m going to do my best to take some downtime this weekend (at least on Saturday; gotta make Monday’s video on Sunday). I’ve only taken one full day off with no work whatsoever since I resigned two months ago (almost to the day, in fact), and am in great need of rest and relaxation. I’m kinda fried, like I know so many of you are out there as you go to work each day. Such is life!
Today’s News Burst is complet...

Hey All,
I know many of you aren't on social media (or don't check it often), so I didn't want you to miss a new piece of occasional content that I'll be doing only on Twitter and Facebook: Book Reviews!
The video is the same in both locations, but you can watch the review either on Twitter or Facebook, if you so desire.
