I spent a decade producing reality TV, including Bar Rescue. Then I left and started making videos about being a dad. 100M+ views and 30+ brand deals later, I’m sharing what TV taught me about content that most creators never learn. That’s what this account is for.

I just heard Gary Vee say he posts 900 pieces of content a day. So what’s your excuse?

Does anyone on X talk about dad life or work/life balance? I only see hustle culture on here 🤷🏻‍♂️

Heading to Blockbuster was always a good time. Unless the new release you wanted was out of stock 📼

Seeing a lot of folks on here making money on X. Let’s be honest, how much are you actually making?

Seems like X is just tech and AI. Anyone on here talking about anything else?

Chatting with dads about chaos in parenting. Should I make this a regular series?

Spent 10 years making sure people didn't change the channel. Turns out creating content has similar rules.

the age of the “influencer” is over the age of the expert with 10+ years of experience, sharing it online for the first time, is just beginning we are very early

I lost my job at 45 after a decade in reality TV. Honestly I wasn’t sure what to do. I just knew I was a dad with a camera and a lot of chaos. So I picked a lane. Parenting. The real messy stuff, not expert advice. And I started posting about products I was already using, in the middle of the chaos. Brands started reaching out because the recommendations were real. And because my audience was specific, the people watching were exactly who those brands wanted to reach. Less than two years later I'm at $10K a month. Not because I had a huge following. Because I had the right people paying attention. Turns out you don't need a big following. You need a clear niche and products you genuinely use. Trust is what gets you paid.
