We Have An Announcement To Make!

[@JezebelDarling]

Oh Cory! I'm going to attempt to not make this a super long and emotional comment. I am so excited you will be doing videos again. I've been watching you for so many years now (back when I had to watch Kate's videos to see you because you weren't vlogging yet) and I have loved seeing you change. I feel like we're friends, or that we would be friends if we lived close by each other. You will always have a fan in me and I love when you're brutally honest and just yourself. Seeing you grow as a KZbinr, a person, a husband, a dad...it's been a emotional journey and I'm thankful you have included us. YOU DO YOU!! Remember to be yourself because everyone else is taken. See you in the next video! G'BYE!

[@LiveEachDay]

That really means a lot to me to hear that. Thank you!

[@rls9009]

Couldn't have said it better myself =) had very similar experiences/feelings and this video just made me so happy

Yes! Same!! xD Couldn’t have said it better myself

[@kagomegrrl21]

i’ve missed seeing you and i’m so glad you are coming back. can’t wait to see your new journey..

[@Goblinspiritttv]

Dude you're allowed to change your mind as many as you want it's your channel and your life you get to call on what you share and what you don't

[@Kristinapedia]

That's what I was going to say. His life is his life and his family comes first. So if he wants to Vlog for two weeks and then take another six-month break that's fine too. Sure we missed them And we cherish every moment we get to watch but family comes first.

[@LordManhattan]

Well yeah, the channel should evolve organically with him, and not stay fixed in one place on a single plot, theme, or character. That's the type of channels that get really boring, really fast. I remember "crazy Corey", and he was A LOT of fun, but Corey is also Corey, a regular person who maybe don't want to be that "character" at all times. He's grown out of it. Viewers have to understand that he's a human being, and he's evolving with us, and so does this channel. I don't particularly like children, especially in vlogs, but I'm well aware about this channel's ("newer") content, and I'm enjoying it. After all, they're documenting their lives, not mine.

[@sharkfinz6]

right on!!!

[@LiveEachDay]

I appreciate that. Thank you!

[@melissazumbrink]

I can only agree 👍❤️

[@zulmrgl]

I've never realized how much I missed the 'goodbye' 😭

[@rosesha]

Truth bomb: I wouldn't have stuck with you all these years if you had not changed. That's because I grew too. It's been lovely growing with you! And, I'm here for that purposeful vlogging. A huge part of what got me attached to your content was the old weird morals you'd make because they were so truthful. But, I also love the just because silly side. Basically, you make it, and I'll be here to watch.

[@Wildflower79]

I've seen you through alot of years. From California to Alaska, to oklahoma. To falling in love and out of it. From the birth of your kids to loss of your beautiful kitties Loki and sparta.❤Its been a long road but im happy to be a small part of it👍 Welcome back😁

[@lestki]

Cory, I've been watching you since before your first marriage. I watched you get married, divorced, new crazy relationship and Kristen and everything that's happened since. We all grow and change and if we don't then we become stunted. You have always been an amazing person and I wish you and the family much love and happiness. I'll be watching, as always, from Oz.

[@Brodyshalecomedy]

Cory, the mean little kitty was the first video I had ever watched on KZbin! My older brother who passed away in 2014 showed me it in the late 2000’s. You remind me of him so much with how much love you have, we first saw it with your cats but we’ve seen you grow throughout the years! We love you man!

[@lynnhaque1472]

Mental health is a real issue! I'm happy you dealt with it and are in a good place now. Welcome back Cory and family! It's wonderful knowing your ok and coming back to your viewers! We love you and your family!

[@ToTheGalaxy]

I'm glad that you are still here. I'm following you since the "Kate"-days. Keep on living your own life .

[@Krigsfilosofi]

^ This is my thoughts exactly.

[@svce2007]

I was about to type the same and also mention the song about Sparta. That’s how I found him. I guess I have lived with him virtually 😆

[@Anti-Villain-Wolf]

I wonder if Kate still does KZbin.

[@Jomenas]

Same here! I came from K's audience and actually ended up watching Cory more than her and I've stuck with him ever since.

[@Amyrah.]

Kate is now on onlyfans ...

[@cjandauntieyaya1446]

Kristen is into fun like you are, and she sees the positive in things so I can see how she helped provide a wholesome and warm center for you. Depression is a hard thing to battle, but having loved ones that don't stress you out about the fact that you are depressed is good. As for KZbin, it is a toxic system taking advantage of creators, hence why I haven't uploaded anything. If you make videos in the future, make sure it is for YOU and your family to review in the future. Don't make stuff for us, but for you and that'll make you put in the right amount of time to make them satisfactory to YOU. The views will come because we all love your energy and sincerity and your whole family is so cute and loving. You keep positive and live each day for YOURSELF and your FAMILY. We have no right to impose our will on you and KZbin can just suck a rotten egg.

[@SashikuChan]

Cory, My name is Finley and I was one of those people who didn't like the way the channel was evolving and commented my feelings about it. I'm really sorry about that. My life was so unstable and I was going through a lot and watching your channel was one of the ways I felt stability in my life. I'm doing a lot better now though and I've changed a lot myself. I just wanted to come back and apologize for any stress my comment may have caused you. I do my best to be kind and considerate, so I always regretted commenting something that could have led to you feeling so unhappy and therefore leaving the channel. I am glad you're back and I hope the future holds many positive things for you. I hope you can forgive me.

[@littlecraftcreature]

I am so excited for this! 15 years of watching your videos and seeing you grow as a person has always lifted my spirits. You are inspirational in your creativity, and your laugh is contagious. Also, I am so happy that Sparta will forever live on in your game!

[@CreekValleyCritters]

Hard to stop lol :D But burnout is a real thing with KZbin and you have to accommodate and deal with this. Sometimes you just need to take a break from it to refocus and find the love for it again. KZbinrs who can keep on posting videos week after week, year after year indefinitely are rare. Most of us are emotional, complex creatives who get stressed easily. You just have to do 'you' on KZbin and not being the perfect KZbinr who never has to take breaks get to you. KZbin is all about getting to participate in a most awesome artform, that can say so much, show the world how you see things, be a memory bank for you, connect you to many other people, add joy and depth to the world and maybe even change it a little to the better. So glad to see you are back :)

[@Kingambrosi]

man I've been watching you since 2005. you probably don't remember me or won't read this comment but one day you gave me a shoutout on twitter to try and help me promote my channel and I still appreciate it to this day. Miss you and it's great to see you still out here creating man and it's crazy to see how far you've gone in these last few years.

[@TheEpicWolf64]

I was 13/14 in 2005. Been watching you for a long time and would love to see you come back. You are incredible man! This is edited yes, need to point out you have been an inspiration for years no matter what you've dealt with. Love you forever man!

[@MamaOv2Monkies]

I lost my mom at the beginning of this month, it's been rough, but tonight I found a bright spot of happiness. Thank you I've watched your channel since The Mean Kitty days.

[@Ladykershaw]

I have watched since steph days.. Even more when u got together with kate.. and after kate and when u were on ur first date with Kirsten..

[@tracetoface2604]

Cory -thank you. I originally created a KZbin account just so that I could follow smpfilms, all the way back in like 2009/2010 as a middle schooler. And now I'm 24 years old. I've watched your story up until this point and grown up and changed along the way as well. You're not like other creator. You have always been a real person, and it feels like you're a friend I've never had the chance to meet. I'm so excited for your new chapter of content. Thanks man!!!

[@MissLilyputt]

I’m so happy that you want to make videos on here again. I’ve missed your content and positive attitude. I’ve been watching since the Mean Kitty song. There was still a 5 star rating system and I specifically joined KZbin so I could like the video. I still remember that. Wow! Time truly flies. I’m glad you got past your toxic relationship and found an amazing person who truly understands you, accepts you, loves you, supports you. During that “bad time” it wasn’t truly hidden that there were things going off the rails there but I didn’t feel it was my place to comment about a relationship that I saw from only an outsiders perspective. But that’s neither here nor there. Also, Chell and Atlas have grown so much. It’s wild to think that these kids were babies not all that long ago and now they’re walking, running, talking and thing people. Awesome

[@kiefersbird3]

I'm so happy you're back. I've followed you since the kitten Sparta days, not long after my son was born in early 2005! I've watched your life through ups and downs, good and bad and I'm delighted that you're giving vlogging another go. You have no idea what your videos mean to me, and the tough times they've gotten me through. Welcome back, dude!

[@cheyenne983]

Hearing about the ups and downs of life and the uncertainties of where to go in the future is so powerful! I just graduated from college and its been difficult with everything going on in the world right now. Learning to be an adult is hard, but knowing that life is an endless journey of learning is so helpful. If you read this by chance I want to say thank you for the adventures and stories and inspiration!

[@uberLeafsFan]

Welcome Back!!! Have missed you all! My word, Atlas talking and running was a big surprise, he was still a baby last time I saw him. Chel is growing into a pretty young girl, they grow up too quick! I am so happy to hear you are coming back, as I really loved your videos. Always made me smile. I became disabled 4 years ago, and suffer from severe depression and anxiety. Fast forward to October 7th, 2019. I lost my only child unexpectedly. My Son was only 28yrs old. My heart definitely went with him, and even a year later, the agony of losing him is daily. I have no idea how a year has passed so quickly. I am happy to see you are coming back, and I hope your videos can again help take me elsewhere for a while, as they did the last time. I watched whenever you posted. I have only been off my property 3 times since Covid hit, so again, depression and anxiety sunk its claws in deep. Truly hope to see lots of vids coming soon! Much love to you all. Kristi - Ontario Canada

[@THEsnapcrakklepop]

I have always loved Polonius’ line from Hamlet- “This above all: to thine own self be true.” And I always follow it up with how you can’t be true to yourself if you don’t know who you are. I’m glad you’ve found and are finding “you”. And I’m glad you’re back. ☺️

[@SuperMissblueeyes]

You have no idea how happy I am! I've been praying for you since you stopped doing regular vlogs. God has answered my prayers. Not only have you started vlogging again, but you seem so much happier. I'm so happy & excited for you & to follow you along on your journey. Welcome back!

[@PlanetPiePie]

I can't believe I've been watching you since the mean kitty song. I'm 23 years old and you have always been an inspiration for my while growing up. You showed me that you can live life happily doing what you love and what you're passionate about. With the people you love, for the people who always support you. Seeing where you are now and seeing how much you've grown, is motivation for me because its also what i strive for. Thankyou for continuing to be a part of our lives.

Aw kind of sucks to hear your relationship with the other “girl” was actually a toxic relationship. I used to love watching your videos together and the perceived happiness and fun you used to have together and its sad to think you guys were actually suffering. Im glad you and Kristen now have each other and a family and a more authentic happiness ❤️❤️❤️❤️ keep on keepin on 😌

[@JakesterJung]

yeah i used to like kate alot, but after she went slightly nuts i cant watch her anymore, and also cant watch Cory cuz i will think about Kate, so even tho i stayed subscribed, i cant watch his videos other than these kinda announcements, hoping i can come back one day(i know its just videos but we started very very early so im engaged in his persona) lol i dont even know what im saying but im glad he's happy now :)

[@klaxoncow]

@@JakesterJung With the passing mention of "the other girl", I wondered what, indeed, was Kate doing these days. Because I also stopped following her when she went "slightly nuts", as you've delicately put it. I found her Twitter. It had a link to her "OnlyFans" and then, scrolling through the tweets, she's announcing her first "nude". Oh dear. It sounds like all of us - us viewers and Cory - absolutely made the right decision to "abort, abort, abort" out of there, pronto.

[@JakesterJung]

Cory. We are all so honored that you are willing to share your life with us. For someone like me, who have been following you from waaaay back when, I'm just so happy to see you and your family enjoying life. I'm really happy that you seem like you've found your groove and that you are doing well. And whether or not you do youtube, I'm just so grateful to have known you through this. You're really special to me, even though we haven't met and you don't know me, I've seen parts of your life that you've been willing to share and I at least feel I know part of you, especially since this channel turned into "LivingEachDay". I really love all of you! Just do you and whatever comes along, whether it be youtube or games or something else, I'll happily follow along and see what you get up to! Lots of love!

I’ll be honest, I haven’t really watched your videos in years but I used to be a huge fan back in the day. You’re actually one of the people that inspired me to pick up a camera and start making videos as a teenager, and now creating video content is literally my job. Great to see you’re doing so well and look forward to seeing what comes next!

I accidentally stumbled upon your adventure while sick with the flu. I had just gotten out of a relationship, I was sick in spirit and physically ill... I was in a bad spot in my life. "Driving To Alaska from LA - Part 1" was in my up next playlist. I was looking to live vicariously through others to feel better myself. I found myself unable to stop, my outlook on life changed from your positivity! How can one person be so happy I wondered? How did I go so far off the path of happiness that I didn't see the answer? We live our lives and wonder how much a life is worth and how much we can change by the things we do and the people we meet never knowing the impact on each other! You don't know this but you changed my life! I watched you start a family in a new place, build a life in a foreign environment and succeed in living your dream. I watched as if I were there in person even if it was through a dim screen in my bedroom or on my phone in bed! You are and will always be my hero and an example of how to live like hella through each day! Ignore the haters who put you down and remember the ones who stuck around! We will always be here no matter what you decide to do... You are family

[@ShonaMarkusen]

Really glad to see this update. I was about 13 when I started watching you many years ago and watching your videos helped inspire me to keep a positive outlook on life that has remained with me into adulthood and helped drive me to where I wanted to be. It's been great seeing you grow and thrive and with age I've really come to respect the journey you've shared over the years. Welcome back, I look forward to the next chapter!

Those clips with Atlas and Chell really, really warmed my heart. I've been following you since I was 13, waaaaaay back in late 2007. I'd just been diagnosed with ADHD and that's how I found you and how I connected to you and your videos. It's been great seeing you grow as a person, and you always screamed "cool dad energy" to me through the years, and remembering the times you said you wanted to be a dad someday... Remembering those moments as I see you play with your kids really warms my heart. You're an amazing dad just as I always knew you'd be and it makes me so happy for you. You're an awesome person Cory, always have been and always will be! The past 13 years have been amazing and I'm looking forward to more laughs and memories in the future 💜

Anyway just seeing a different part of the world when you are used to the same thing and depressed can be a welcome holiday from life. Thanks man! I think it's normal for people with ADHD to continually chase excitement, which leads to a lot of growth but damn it's miserable when you are at a standstill.

Count me EXCITED! I was there since the early days, and Cory, I have loved witnessing that growth, the good and the bad. Somehow it has helped me reflect and grow in my own life, helped me learn from mistakes, helped me live with myself... I'm the eldest of my family, I have ADHD, I grew up surrounded by toxic patterns... it's hard to navigate towards a healthier happier life without examples, and in that way you've kinda been like a big bro to me, among other people and contents that have helped me build a mental image of who I want to be, and how to get through and over all of this. I relate to a lot of what you've been through, and growth is the key word really, it was amazing to see how all of those adventures and misadventures eventually lead you to a soft place to land. I found mine around the same time as you, I hope we both continue to grow and blossom, and I'm over the moon that we're gonna get to see more of that beautiful life you have!

Welcome back fam!

[@samjaksmom]

Good to see you again Cory. I know the feeling, I have not done much on You Tube for a while. I have been learning Tsalagi for a couple of years now. My family is unregistered Cherokee and we were not allow to have anything to do with the tribe ever. A few years ago, I found out that they now have programs for Cherokee abroad and those of us outside the tribe are allowed to be part of it. So learning the language is not easy for a 61 year old woman, but I am working at it and I started doing short lessons on it for the kids in my family on You Tube. Nothing fancy. Was getting ready to make moccasins for all my grandkids and others, but my son ended up in the hospital and that got put to the side. Since we are all stuck at home I have been learning how to finger weave belts like the Cherokee. Ofcourse mine have my own touch to them and even got a buyer for some. Next year I plan to do beaded chokers. Turns out there is a whole story behind them. I did get a cross stitch pattern made from one of your pictures. With you and Kristen sitting in a valley that was surrounded by mountains. Sent you a copy of all of it. Had a time finding fabric that would work and large enough. The finished project would be 2 ft high and 4 ft wide. Even brought it out to Tulsa when we were visiting out kids just incase we bumped into you guys. Started backing away from You Tube because the politics were just nuts and I could not talk with anyone without some form of fighting going on. Okay, Trump is a world class ass hole. Have not pulled out your project in a long time. Depression is hard to deal with. Hoping things will get better now. I keep praying. But I am glad you are also working through your stuff and that you and your family are happy. Hope to see more of you guys. And I will try to get back to work on you project. Loves. MomsOpinion

[@LiveEachDay]

The truth was too hard to take then but I knew this to be true even in the best moments. I just didn’t want to give up because I was always told that relationships take a lot of work. I feel differently about that belief now. A relationship for me doesn’t require work. It requires love, honesty, trust and respect. If any of those things aren’t there 100%, none of it is.

@@LiveEachDay appreciate your heartfelt response Corey - also that's some sound advice for anyone in / going into a relationship!

[@john_scott]

​@@LiveEachDay All that perfect relationship talk... May I ask you something, Cory? Would you allow your wife to become surgically sterilized, so that she was not able to conceive? I don't think you would, Cory. That is if you really loved your wife. I don't think any man would want this for his wife. Then, tell me, please, why did Kristen allow you to incapacitate yourself? Was it out of love, are you sure? I can understand that now you may have this overpsyched image of a perfect relationship, as influenced by Kristen, a psychologist, one of those who study psychology because they really count on becoming able to help themselves. Honesty, trust, respect, love... indeed. But if a woman is in control of a man, which is counter-intuitive, how much do you think their relationship is based in the reality and how much in an illusion? Do you remember when you put on some sort of device that was designed to 'simulate' the weight of the baby bum, as if you were experiencing pregnancy? You pretended to be very happy and understanding, though your face and movements of your body claimed otherwise. Do you remember that you went outside of your house to meet a courier that came with the parcel? Remember what you said to him? Your first words were: 'MY WIFE THINKS it's a good idea (...)" You said: 'My wife thinks', you didn't say: 'I think'. Well, I think you told the truth, Cory.

[@TreeSprite]

@@john_scott Wow! That's a lot of negative talk for someone putting themselves forth as a helper! I'm sure Cory knows best what is good or not in his relationship with his wife. I didn't hear him ask for input from anyone.

[@wolfbane155]

@@john_scott Wow that's a lot of words for "I don't respect other peoples family planning/reproductive choices". A vasectomy is MUCH less invasive than a woman being sterilized, and can be done within 20 minutes in a doctors office. A woman on the other hand will have to spend months if not years just trying to find a doctor to perform a sterilization on her because apparently a grown woman with 2 kids and a masters degree can't be trusted to make decisions on her own body. Cory did a very selfless thing for his family and took the responsibility on his own. He is not less of a man (do you think a vasectomy = castration?) for getting sterilized and being very happy with his family. In fact, he's more of a man than you'll ever be. Plenty of people out there who get sterilized because they don't want ANY kids. That's their life, their choice. Doesn't make it right or wrong. You having an opinion on what someone does to their body is wrong. Also, Kristen is a Civil Engineer, not a psychologist.

I remember being a preteen and watching your livesteamed wedding reception, and I've been here since then. It's been so nice to watch your channel and watch you grow as I grow into adulthood. Other people have said that you almost feel like a friend to them and you do, because there's something about you that sticks with people. I'm glad you're back, I'm glad you're continuing to share with us. Know that we do really care about you and look forward to whatever it is that you do.

Oh my god thank you!!! I had a really tough breakup today and this video gives me hope that I can feel better soon. I always loved your videos.

Thanks for tagging us along the adventure Cory ❤

Welcome back Cory! I've missed you and your family and can't wait to see what you get up to next

[@jancovanderwesthuizen8070]

I just came back to this channel for the first time in months and it couldn’t have been more perfect timing!!

[@PrimyFritzellz]

I'm glad that you brough up Kate and all. I've been a subscriber since god, like 2013? Way back when you won that furniture store money or whatever it was. Been there when you moved and all, and when it all ended and you got with kristen, I always wanted to know what happened to Kate. Now you said how it was, and I can get my peace with that story. Thank you cory for existing! You are the first vlogger I've ever watched, and the only one I've watched. You are the most real guy on youtube. The one that shows the good, the bad and the ugly. Thanks for existing Cory.

[@coopersrabbit]

having been one that has watched for many years since the mean kitty video, i just want to say, i'm very proud of you and it makes me smile to see you refreshed again. you are the kind of person i would like to be. everyone is vulnerable in any number of ways, it's swimming thru the muck and coming out better for it on the other side that makes a person live their best. cheers to you, man. :)

Omgsh YASSSS!!!! 🎉🎉🎉 we missed you guys sooooooo much!!! Happy tears!!!

[@foxintoxin]

Cory thank you for bringing us along with you. I’ve been here since 2005 when I was 15. It’s like a friend has come back from some time away! I wish you and the family the very best and can’t wait to see you all.

[@hanyougirl1991]

Oh this made my heart soooo, so happy 😭💕 I'm very happy you're feeling better and I am so very grateful you are letting us into your life even more once again. I found you guys through Chell's birth vlog and followed ever since cause aside from being Portal fans, just that energy and love you guys give off that can be felt through the camera did the soul some good. Again, thank you 💕

[@BrendaD72]

I remember the crazy walk, the broken wrist on the motorized kids car, the beginning of Mean Kitty. You’re one of the very first people I was subscribed to. YT hasn’t been the same without you. Welcome back!

[@tonya2067]

This is a great announcement! ♥️ I still have post notifications on, obviously 😁

[@mizuniki66631]

Cory I have been here for a long time, 2006. I have seen the journey you have shared and seen you change and grow. It's like an old friend. I am happy to see you happy and always enjoy whatever new adventure you go on. I'm excited old friend!

[@IAmGigi247]

This makes me so happy!!! All you needed was to center. I'll be here for every vlog!! Continued blessings for you and your beautiful family! 💙

[@AlaskanBearsVlogs]

I have been watching you since before we moved to Alaska 15 years ago! I can honestly say I have loved watching you grow and flourish and become an amazing Dad. Loving your life and your family, I am so happy to have met Kristen and Grangie ❤ it makes me feel like I am some small part of your life. Keep pecking away, that's all it's about.

[@VictoriaY9]

I love you Cory! I've seen you go thru so many changes in your life. I will always be here! ❤️ As an old stranger friend 😊

I've been watching your videos for almost half my life. Your videos have got me through some very dark times and I appreciate you for giving people a little bit of yourself over the years. THANK YOU and welcome back

Corey, yourself, Kristen and your family are A BREATH of fresh air on this platform. I love your curiosity, your sense of adventure, your honesty, and your creativity. Don't EVER stop believing in yourself, you have truly made and are continually capable of amazing things. I will always be rooting for you and your family and welcome back!! :)

[@LiveEachDay]

What a night that was! I just let the truth spill. Thanks for coming to that!

[@danielgonzales4143]

Yep NO Bullshit haha

[@AmbiCahira]

I remember the day you announced the boot-up of dudelikehella. I remember hitting the subscribe button and I remember a lot of things both before and after that, and I've grown so much both in inspiration of you and alongside you. I definitely wouldn't love my ADD without you. I wouldn't have been inspired to cut down sugar which was an unhealthy part of my life, and I definitely wouldn't toy with the idea of working out. I sure as hell wouldn't wonder for countless of hours what I look like when I go up stairs. 😂❤ 2020 has for sure been a growth year. I'm happy for you Cory. ❤ Epic Man Hugs! P.S. I'm so deeply proud of you.

[@kkbing777]

YAY!!!!!!!!! I think about and pray for y'all all the time!!! I'm glad you(and your family) took a well deserved break, but...Welcome back!!!!!!!! YAAAAAAAAAY!!!!!!!!

[@JuanderfulJuans]

This is the second best thing that has happened for me today.

[@suzypenguin]

I’ve watched your channels throughout all those years. Hard to believe how time flies! I agree it’s been by far the best with you and your lovely wife and children (and cats!). Stay happy Cory!

[@briannaware1424]

Stoked you're all coming back. Over the years, your infectious spirit & zest for life has picked me up countless times when I couldn't see my way through the fog. 💙 And even when you're being raw, your stream of consciousness/venting vids have always served a special place too. Keep doing you.

[@JayShurey]

Thank you Cory and family for being there and being a bright light on dark days for me. You give so much to others that you will never know!

[@rebeccastratton4114]

I sighed so loud I surprised myself and jumped. Cory, I have missed your family so very much. Atlas has become a little boy, Chell is such a cool kid, Kristen's voice and her calm demeanor I miss experiencing. Angela and Mark, OMG, we were just getting to know them better. And Cory, you are just a great ball of communication and honesty. I'm so looking forward to this. We need this/you in our days!

[@TEATimeAdventures]

I have been watching since The Mean Kitty and Sparta went viral, from the first Dude Like Hella vlog. Its been a journey. None of us are the same as we were 15 years ago. Have I liked every video - nope. But I like the decent, funny, creative guy that invited us all in to him life, introduced us to his wife, pets, kids, and in laws. If been a Hella Good ride man. I am sure you will keep us coming back to this Reboot! 🙌❤

[@MatsuyoRific]

I've been around since just before the divorce, and I can't begin to tell you how much your channel has meant to me. Your Hella Positivity series really helped to shape who I am today, and I really am a much happier person thanks to you.
