In 2015, Apple CEO Tim Cook said that the future of TV is apps, and that trend continues to grow at a rapid rate!! There are many over-the-top or OTT devices available to connect  TVs to the internet and you to content via these apps. I personally have tried many of these devices over the past few years.

In this episode of the vlog, I’m sharing a comprehensive review of Roku, Amazon Fire TV, and Apple TV OTT devices and which device I think is best for you!

About a year ago Facebook released the Messenger for Kids app to introduce social media to kids under the age of 13 in a controlled environment. Having a 6-year old and a 9-year old, my wife and I have always talked about whether or not to allow our daughters on social media platforms. In this episode of the vlog, I’m sharing more about FB Messenger for Kids and how we manage it, which I hope will help you decide for your family as well!

In the past, I thought it was just a platform where people go to consume videos, but I realized there’s more to YouTube than that! Here are my key takeaways that might help you as you think about investing on the platform.

I can’t believe this day is finally here! I can’t believe the words I’m about to type! I can’t be more proud to say:

MY SISTER IS A PUBLISHED AUTHOR!!!!!!!!

To say that my sister, Becky, and I are close might be the understatement of the year. It’s hard to begin to describe the depth of our sibling relationship. The reality of the depth comes from the valleys that we’ve been through together. We endured broken relationships, painful losses, school challenges, and constant change. We navigated some hilarious phases like Jinco jeans (her) and Nike earrings (me). We journeyed through her countless surgeries that seemed to never end and both helped each other move more times than we could count. We even got arrested together (another story for another time)!

We had some great times along the way as well! Coolio, Montell Jordan and Garth Brooks on full blast in my high school 85 Blazer. Graduating college (eventually) and finding spouses...

About 18 months ago, I bought an Insta360 camera that gave me an opportunity to create 360-degree photos and videos. At the current price of under $100, the product does offer a lot, but there are still areas to improve on. In this vlog I share my 2 cents on this product as a whole.

If you have been following me on my vlog, I’ve been posting a lot of content about the Oculus Go since I got it five months ago.
