8:18 PM, January 2nd,
2025:
-
- Columbus,
Ohio,
-
- If you had shown me
the city I was typing from 25 years ago I would INSTANTLY
think nothing worked out and I had to move back home.
Instead, we're simply visiting and are able to set-up an
extremely surreal side-by-side (spatially correct if
you're in a headset) of New Year's Eve 25 years apart.
GET YOUR HEADSET AND WATCH THIS!

- So this entry is
almost impossible to actually do correctly. Annually,
this is the "Hopes and Dreams" entry where I get
into what I want to accomplish in 2025. Of course, the
25th Anniversary of the first and longest running video
blog SHOULD be far more. I guess I could've
hired a publicist last year and gotten some press for
this but if you're not monetizing anything - it simply
doesn't make any sense. It would just be for ego and I'm
just too damned determined to make Virtual Presence work
to have any sort of ego about The Journey. The thing is?
It will always be here. When the time is right to push
the insanity of the project, I will. Maybe it's for
the release of Volume 3? Maybe when I'm able to pair down
the first to volumes into a more proper TV series
(which I think is just a better way to enjoy the story).
Who knows. For now of course I pay it tribute because
it's absolutely crazy to be in the same room 25 years
later and I move onto what's ahead...
-
- A meeting with the
Adjunct Professor of Entrepreneurship at the USC Marshall
School of Business to show him what Virtual Presence can
produce for an upcoming class they're giving with a
masterclass of speakers from Will Ferrell to Ron Howard
to Pete Carroll. This was a result of the "Remember
December" entry last month that got pushed to
2025...
-
- ...and the Hef has
already contacted the head of some branch of the sales
department as we attempt to line up the sponsors for this
weekly shoot/daily distribution plan with Fan Duel. The
woman who set-up the January 8th meeting (and was then
fired) reached out and introduced me to her boss so it
looks like that's all still a possibility
soon.
-
- There's no stopping
the momentum no matter how annoying parts of 2024 were.
It set-up where we are now and I'm pretty stoked to get
back to LA and continue the fight. We're all gonna hang
with Jess, Jeff and Zoe tomorrow night bringing
everything full circle.
Crazy how life works sometimes, ain't it?

- PS - that was
easily one of the best starts to a Buckeye game I've ever
seen... 34-0 in the 2nd quarter? Even against a team like
Akron they've never started that strong. I just cannot
believe how confused Oregon seemed. We absolutely seem
destined to roll to the National Championship and, yes,
it is making that Xichigan game sting a tiny bit less -
but I'll still never understand why they refused to
establish their passing game against them. Oh well - new
year... moving on. GoBUCKS.
