The Diaries is supported by headlamps.

Ever been stuck in the woods a night without one?

Me neither.

But for real, the difference between a shiverbivvy and a pleasant night hike through the woods is just a little bit of light.

And every time someone joins the Diaries Plus, they give us like a little extra support to try these

hard things, right? And that is incredible. It allows us to push harder because the things we're

doing, the kind of stories we are creating and reporting on, it's the same thing as taking on a

big climb and knowing that there's a good chance, you won't

make it home for dinner, but you're going to go anyway. You're going to try something difficult

because you know you have that little bit of light. That's what it's done for us when people

have joined the Diaries Plus. Every time someone joins and says, I support what you are doing,

we believe a little bit more in ourselves.

We dream just a little bit bigger for what this show, what this project can become.

So please consider joining this global community.

Your financial support powers this project.

Fitz, do you remember the X-Men cartoons growing up?

I'm about to show my age. I remember the comic books, Marco. Okay. Fair enough. I think I was like past the point of cartoons when that cartoon came out. Okay. Well, for those who may not be familiar,

the X-Men are a team of superheroes from the Marvel comic book universe.
