Colin's Last Stand, Episode 5 (Audio)

Hey All,

As promised, I'm rolling out audio-only files of Colin's Last Stand. I've decided that the audio will be available for $5+/month subscribers. There are reasons for that; you can read this Reddit post for more:

I'm going to refrain on filling i...

(Weekend) News Burst: April 14, 2017

Hey All,

I hope you are enjoying your Friday evenings (or whatever time/day it is where you are, when you read this). I’m in a hotel in Santa Monica, getting the news together for this here News Burst. Erin and I may have found a great apartment here; keep your fingers crossed for us!

Before I get into it, though, two things:

1.) I met more than a few of you Patreon supporters last night at the USC event on free speech that I partook in. Thank you so much for being there, and fo...

Hey Fam,

I hope you’re doing well today! I apologize for the later-than-usual posting. Today was a bit of a shitshow, capped with me going home to get the postcards I’m gonna begin filling out and sending out to March’s $50+/month supporters. Realized I forgot my keys. Had to wait for Erin to come. Meanwhile, I kept buzzing my landlord. No response. Then he comes out right when Erin arrives. Pretty awesome.

Anyway, I’m so excited for you guys to see tomorrow’s epis...

Hey All,

Sorry for the late post today. Been dealing with some business-related things, running some errands, and the like. No rest for the weary!

Anyway, I’m glad so many of you enjoyed today’s episode of CLS. Thursday’s and Monday’s episodes -- which are connected -- will bring back the format of the Third Amendment video. I hope y’all enjoy those episodes, too.

Alright, let’s jump in.

Colin's Last Stand, Episode 3: Syria, SCOTUS, and the Folly of Political Expediency

Hey Guys and Gals,

Here's today's episode. It was a lot of fun to make; I hope you enjoy it.

Otherwise, I hope Monday finds you all well! I'll be back later this afternoon (or in the very early evening) with a News Burst, to answer some messages, and interact a bit with y'all in the various comments.

Until then, be good! And, as always, thank you for your kind and generous support. -Colin

(Weekend) News Burst: April 07, 2017

 

Hey Fam,

How’re you doing? Well, I hope! This, of course, is your final news burst of the week, before I depart for a weekend full of script writing and video recording. I was initially intending on putting up another scripted piece on Monday. That may still happen. But with what’s going on with both Syria and Gorsuch, I figure maybe Monday will instead be another off-the-cuff episode that’s more timely, and less historical. We’ll have to wait and see how it all works out!...

Hey Fam,

Another late-ish post today. I’ve been editing tomorrow’s unwieldy video, giving it a bit more love than I had originally intended. It’ll go up at 9a PT tomorrow morning, as will all videos moving forward.

Otherwise, there’s not much else to say. If you support at the $10+/month and $50+/month tiers, I’ll be reaching out with messages directed at those tiers to let you know what’s going on with the monthly Q&A and the monthly postcards, respectively....

Hey Fam,

I hope you’re doing very well!

This is this week’s first News Burst; yesterday was a bit of a shitshow, and today is as well, hence why I’m posting a little later than I’d usually like to.

I want to let y’all know that I’m taking part in a Free Speech Panel at USC on Thursday, April 13th. Dave Rubin will also be there. I’ll have more information on that soon, which I’ll post here, but in the meantime, I wanted to put that on your radar in case ...

Thank You (March, 2017)

Hey All,

I wanted to take a quick moment to thank all of you for your kind and generous support of Colin's Last Stand here on Patreon, now that we've moved into what is technically this Patreon's second month.

No matter what level you support this show at, please know that it's folks like you that allow something like this to exist at all. Moreover, it's through your generosity -- and dedication to knowledge, and to spreading that knowledge -- that I can deliver this content withou...

‘Sup Fam?

The weekend has arrived, and with it, the final days until the first episode of Colin's Last Stand are waning away. I have to be honest: I’m nervous. I hope folks like what I’m trying to do. Ultimately, that will be for the market to decide.

I was planning on doing a final pre-launch update video today, but I’m actually sick (albeit still functional, thankfully), and my throat is destroyed. So, I’ll simply focus on editing and finalizing everything over t...

Hey All,

I hope you’re doing very well today! As I posted earlier, I recorded Episode 1 and Episode 3 of Colin’s Last Stand last night. I even did an assemble edit on the first episode, which I sent out to a few people for content feedback as I begin the proper edit tonight/tomorrow.

I’ve been going pretty much full steam ahead since the day I resigned from Kinda Funny, and I’m in need of some rest and relaxation (my mind feels like it’s been a little slow the last...

It Begins

Hey Fam,

Many of you likely missed Erin's Tweet yesterday with a couple of pictures of me recording the first two episodes (well, technically Episode 1 and Episode 3) of Colin's Last Stand.

I wanted to share that picture with you here today.

You did this. You allowed this to happen. I did a crude assemble edit of Episode 1 last night, and I think it's going to be a great episode. I hope y'all agree. But now, the next phase of the process begins. Gathering assets, editing the video...

Recording Tonight!

Hey All,

$5+/month patrons might notice no News Burst today. While I plan on doing at least a few a week, and will likely miss days fairly often (as in posting 3-5 times  a week as opposed to 1-2 times a week), there's a special reason for that today.

Today, thanks to all of your help, your patience, your backing, your belief, I'm filming the first two episodes of Colin's Last Stand. Well, technically Episode 1 and Episode 3. What's most exciting to me is that the topic for Ep...

Hey All,

I hope you all had a fantastic weekend!

As I did last week, I wanted to alert you that I posted a new Update Video to social media. This video will give you a little insight into what's going on, answer some (new) common questions, and more.

Hey Guys and Gals,

I hope you’re doing well! I meant to get this post up yesterday (and intend on doing the Weekend News Blasts on Friday afternoons/evenings moving forward when/where possible), but my plane back to San Francisco from LA was slightly delayed, I got home, and I was just exhausted. Turns out an intensive dinner conversation with Dave Rubin followed by three hours on the air with Joe Rogan takes so much out of your mind that you want to sleep for a long time. And t...

Off to LA (Yet Again)

Hey Fam,

Just wanted to let y'all know that I'm headed to LA shortly for a dinner tonight and then Rogan tomorrow, so there's no time for me to do the News Burst today. At least, not without rushing it, and I don't want to rush things. That's not what this Patreon (or channel) is about.

Things you'll want to keep an eye out today for, obviously, pertain to Trump's Russian connections and the health care law, as well as any developments coming out of London pertaining to the terrorist at...

A Thank You, and A Personal Story

 

Hey Guys and Gals,

First of all, I want to thank you from the very bottom of my heart for your support. I’m writing this to the $5/month tier and above, because it’s here that I see our community really thriving, really taking off, really sticking together and fighting for the ideals of reason, knowledge, fairness, and freedom of thought and expression.

I also want to tell you a story, to give you a little insight into something strange that’s been happening to me over...

I'm Overwhelmed

Thank you so much for believing in me, and in the vision I have for Colin's Last Stand. Your overwhelming support has nearly brought me to tears this morning.

Remember: The first video goes live April 3rd!

Seriously. Thank you for being in my corner, and in the corner of reason, ideas, free-thought, and education.

Your friend, -Colin
