We conclude 2025 and begin 2026 with a special bonus episode of the podcast. Episode 225 consists of something typically reserved for Patreon members.

Back in October 2023, I launched a Patreon page. One of the perks I came up with for those who put up their hard-earned money to support me is monthly bonus podcast episodes. These are different than the main show as I look back at, and attempt to decipher, posts from the original Initial Impressions blog that I wrote from about 2010-2013.

I wanted to share this to give everyone an idea of what I do on Patreon. So what exactly makes up the very first Patreon bonus podcast? I'm glad you asked.

Two blog posts get broken down. The first is what I called the 'Pilot Blog,' dated May 20, 2010. Initial Impressions was meant to be a behind-the-scenes companion to my official travel blog. So the first post is a look at a trip I took to the North Shore in Massachusetts. It included Lynn, Saugus, Nahant, and Revere. There are random stories and thoughts sprinkled in on this trip.

The second blog post from May 26, 2010, is the true debut of Initial Impressions. It is a slice of life as I share some of the things I saw and experienced that week. We look at Quiznos, beach sticker blues, gym meatheads, and more.

For those who enjoy the format of this bonus episode, there are currently 26 of them on Patreon now. 

Happy New Year to all of my listeners!
