The Story

Snowboards, surfboards, foils, paragliders, pickup trucks. If it moves fast and makes you grin, it's been on this channel.

LIC23ILL reads as "License To Thrill." Here's how it got to where it is now, and where it's headed.

Chapter 1

Pure Thrill

It started with a board and a camera. Surfing, snowboarding, skateboarding. Whatever got the heart pounding, I filmed it.

Chapter 2

Horsepower

Then trucks and cars took over. The Shorts with engines in them are the ones you all keep watching, so we leaned in.

Chapter 3 · Now

That Was Epic

The next chapter is about people. Paying for a stranger's groceries. Helping someone on the side of the road. Using the channel to give money and help to people who need it.

Same adrenaline. Bigger reason.

Giving Back: The Mission

Thrills are fun. Making someone's whole day is better. The plan is simple: find people who could use a hand, help them out, and bring you along for the ride.

Grocery Runs

Walking up to the checkout line and covering a stranger's groceries. No catch, just a good surprise.

Roadside Help

Flat tire, dead battery, out of gas. If you're stuck, we're pulling over.

Car-Meet Surprises

Showing up where the car people are and making someone's night in a way they won't see coming.

Christmas in the Philippines

Dec 6, 2026 – Jan 7, 2027

I'm heading to the Philippines with my friend Angel. She's seeing her family for the first time in four years, and I get to film that reunion.

While we're there, we're handing out food packs (rice, sardines, the basics) in some of the poorest provinces, right around Christmas. It's the first big trip of the new direction, and you're coming with us.
