Just a note to say thank you to other people who reached out and asked where I’ve been and if I’m doing okay.

I’ve been orbiting a burnout recently and although I don’t talk about it much on the channel, managing my depression became a little difficult this winter.

I’m really happy to say that taking that time off has benefited me hugely and I’ll be back tomorrow with an episode of the week in gear.

Happy New Year.
Thank you for watching in 2025. It was a year full of huge personal challenges for me that I haven’t spoken about but want you know that I found peace in knowing there’s people out there that care a lot.

Let’s make 2026 a year we lift each other up more than drag each other down.

Here’s the 2025 gear roundup, watch it before it gets stale!

This weird period in between Christmas and New Year is the perfect time to watch this podcast I did with my mate Rob Chapman!

If you haven’t heard, I’m moving into a new studio soon.
Absolutely crazy that this YouTube journey has taken me this far, but I’m starting to worry about what I’ve signed up for now…

I just wanted the document what this room look like before it gets GEEKED!
