A Note from That KEVIN - 03-07-26

What a terrific issue we have in store for you this week here at That Passport Life.

As America begins looking ahead to our nation’s 250th birthday, we continue our brand new series, “Revolutionary Destinations.” Last week we began in Boston — where the spirit of rebellion first gathered steam. This week we travel just a little farther down the road to Lexington and Concord, the places where the shot heard ‘round the world changed the course of history forever.

Walking those quiet greens today, it’s almost impossible to imagine that the first moments of the American Revolution unfolded in such peaceful places. But that’s the beauty of these journeys — they remind us that history didn’t happen somewhere far away. It happened in towns and villages where ordinary people made extraordinary decisions. And as our nation prepares to celebrate its 250th year, we’re going to keep visiting the places where the American story truly began.

Speaking of American stories, we’ve got some terrific podcasts for you this week as well. My good friends Linda Perillo and Cristyne Nicholas join me to explore destinations tied to the America 250 theme — places you can travel to that connect you directly with the moments that shaped the country we love. If you’ve ever thought about taking a trip that blends history, adventure, and a bit of patriotic pride, these conversations will absolutely spark some ideas.

But we’re not only traveling through American history this week.

We also take you to the coast of southern Italy for one of the most romantic ideas imaginable — a moonlit stroll through Sorrento. Imagine warm Mediterranean air, the scent of lemons drifting through narrow streets, and the lights of the Bay of Naples shimmering beneath the moon.

And here’s the fun part.

You could actually take that very stroll with us this year.

Our Italy 2026 journey is filling quickly, and we would absolutely love to have you join us. The itinerary includes unforgettable stops through Rome, Sorrento, Capri, Positano, and the Amalfi Coast — the kinds of places that feel almost too beautiful to be real. If a moonlit evening in Sorrento sounds appealing, take a moment to visit Italy2026.info and reserve your seat while there’s still space available.

On the television side of things, we’ve got big news this weekend.

Our show is now launching on Amazon Prime, which is an exciting step forward and a chance to bring our conversations to an even larger audience. Joining us will be several respected military experts to help break down the latest developments involving Iran. We’ll also have what may be the funniest sketch comedy we’ve ever aired, and our #NewMusicSpotlight will feature the always inspiring Phil Wickham.

And finally, I simply have to say thank you.

The response to The Drawing Board, the brand new album from The TEA Collective, has been overwhelming. More than 8,400 downloads in the first 24 hours of release made it our biggest launch ever — and that simply would not have happened without your support.

So thank you.

Enjoy the journeys in this week’s issue, travel well wherever your path leads, and as always — thanks for being part of the adventure.

Continuing the journey,

—That KEVIN
