Can you believe it?

It’s been one whole lunar calendar year since fan-favorite ‘Blasters Marc (the alternative and cute one) and Kyle (the mysterious and also cute one) began working here at Club CBM.

We’ve had a lot of laughs here, folks. Time flies.

It flies so quickly, in fact, that we’re not even going ramble on with a 5,000-word introductory paragraph, speech or manifesto since the bossman Matt Ray wants this blog posted by E.O.D. (that’s an abbrev’ we use in the biz for ‘End of Day’).  They say the best works of art spring forth from a really tight deadline and not an actual whole lot of planning, so let’s get to it!

Behind the Blog

Summing up one whole year of making content in one piece of content is no easy task.  Here we are hard at work on great big blog number three, courtesy of professional Snapchatter Valerie “Valpal” Hoke.
