I picked up a couple of neat things and decided to make a video about them in time for christmas! Wait, uh, oops
I shot this like a week ago, then uhhhhhh things happened. I did not expect to write, shoot and release a public video in time for Christmas but that kinda took priority once I realized I could do it...

Haven't done a mail call video in a while, but I got a Commodore 128 from a viewer the other day and figured you all might like to hear a little bit about it, since (IME, at least) it's one of the less-covered 8-bit machines. This video is kinda rough if you ask me because I shot it at home with my awful old Panasonic camcord...

Hello, new patrons! Since there's quite a few new subscribers after the last exclusive, it made me think that now would be a good time to try to get back to making more of the same.
I'm in the studio quite a bit, doing stuff - some of it's interesting, but I don't record most of it, and that's a bummer. I could...

Hello everyone! Thank you for taking the time to watch my dreary vacation footage! But more importantly, thank you all for supporting me. Let me take a moment to talk about that.

My cat, Gibbs, who was sort of a mascot to some viewers, is no longer with us. He got very sick, very rapidly, and we were told there was nothing we could really do other than euthanasia. I was extremely close to him and I am pret...

Back in March 2021 I shot this entire video about how video mixers work, demonstrated on a specific model I have, then trashed the whole project because I didn't have the space and hardware to do it right (and I still don't) but I found the rough cut on a spare drive today and was astonished at just how poorly I'd scripted it...
