--- Hey there! Listen. I’m truly grateful you’re here, watching this, let alone reading these words. I do this because my mind craves those those odd, seemingly useless scraps of knowledge, and I can’t resist sharing with my family, so why not here? There’s a thrill in passing along something unique, in opening someone’s eyes to ideas they’ve never considered before.

More than that, I feel a deep need to hold onto history—beyond the big events, more specifically the personal, fleeting memories of those who lived them. There’s something powerful in honoring those moments, and our world is forgetting them at a relentless pace. It's concerning.

I’m not trying to be some YouTube star—I just want to pass on this love for life’s hidden gems to those who feel it: the magic of a 1952 moment reborn, rescuing stories nearly lost to oblivion, and sparking new ways to see the world. If you get it, you get it. So, from the bottom of my heart, THANK YOU. And THANK YOU for even getting this far. If what I’m saying or doing speaks to you, I’d be so honored if you’d subscribe, and follow me on Spotify. It would mean everything to me. I know chances are you won't, and that's all good. In that case, I hope reading this made your day a little better.
