The person behind the plan

Curious enough to try it.

If there’s a good story in the idea, I’m probably going to try it.

The camera stays rolling when the plan falls apart.

My channel started with the stuff I already cared about: cameras, microphones, everyday carry, and coffee. After a while, I realized the best part was everything happening around the gear.

These days, it’s all about the story, whether that’s buying an unreliable car, giving up talking for a week, or building a Nerf gun that shoots faster than a crossbow.

I don’t cut around the parts that make me look dumb. If the plan breaks or the day takes a turn, that stays in the video.

The gear used to be the story. Now it’s just along for the ride.
