With Tania at the Kenny Chesney concert

Went to see Kenny Chesney with Tania and friends on Saturday night. Kenny Chesney is great live, but someone should recognize his production team! His live video editors are UNREAL! Great to see artists at work!

VIDEO: Working on Man in the Moon during “vacation”

Sunday midnight in a studio with friends in Phoenix working on the most amazing flag raising for July 6 at Man in the Moon. I fly today to convince American Dream Labs to complete the vision. Humility.

Ella with the cows on Saturday

It hasn’t taken much time for our younger shepherd Ella to realize she needed new friends. She has always only barked at the cows but this morning we found her out back. Maybe they were comforting her.

My final farewell

My gentle giant at half his size

Goodbye my friend

By the time many of you read this, my family and I will have put our dear friend and gentle protector Victor down for his final rest. I wanted to take a minute to share a few thoughts with you, the loyal listeners and viewers who have been with me from the time we first brought Victor into our home so many years ago.

It was right after 9/11 that I received my first death threat. . It was the first time I ever had any professional interaction with the FBI and we were told to go home. We didn’t even have curtains on the windows of our house at that time. I went home and I explained as calmly as I could to Tania that we had to take sheets and blankets and put them on our window as soon as we could.

That night, we had a serious discussion about what steps we needed to take to protect ourselves. Neither of us had ever owned a gun, and laughably at the time we didn’t feel we were responsible enough to have one in the house. I was living in Florida at the time and I took my family to Los Angeles and we couldn’t tell anybody that we were in LA for a month. When we came home, we knew we needed something in the house to protect us.

We went to Harrison K9, and the found us a kind and gentle protector who would become one of the most important members of our family: Victor.

Before I moved to New York City, there was rarely a moment when Victor wasn’t by my side. Those of you who were with us back during the Insider days probably remember seeing him in the WPHT studios in Philadelphia. He had a spot on the studio floor, and he would sit by my side, quietly watching and listening to the show. Looking back, I’m so thankful to have had a chance to have my best friend with me at all hours of the day.

He was a part of the show, and Insiders even got to see life through his eyes with “The Victor Cam”. It is a testament to his kindness, gentleness, and patience that he let us put that thing on his head.
