"You aren't influenced later in life, you're inspired." - Matthew Hankins Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays, Santa Chris here, Bonsai Chris is tending to his bonsai tree, which is in desperate need of a trimming. Last night, I was filling Bonsai Chris' stocking with small squares of organic, paleo friendly, non-chocolate-chocolate-covered cashew-butters when I noticed that someone (perhaps Bonsai Nick) had already placed a gift inside Bonsai Chris' stocking. Why, it was a freshly-baked, ready to serve bonus episode of the MAKE IT podcast. A podcast with guest Matthew Hankins, who has been in the film business since 1991 as a Sound Engineer.
