A Note from That KEVIN…

November 13, 2026

Christmas is coming, and this week at That Passport Life, we’re getting an early start on the magic!

In this issue, we’re exploring the wonderful world of Christkindlmarkts, those enchanting European Christmas markets filled with twinkling lights, handcrafted treasures, and the unmistakable aromas of the season. We’re also taking a fresh look at The Nutcracker, a holiday tradition that continues to find new ways to delight audiences.

And that’s just the beginning!

We’ve had some terrific conversations this week with Linda Perillo and Cristyne Nicholas. From the fascinating world of private aviation to Broadway, helping our nation’s heroes, and figuring out how to move forward following the electoral disaster we just witnessed, there’s plenty to unpack.

Speaking of podcasts, something new is happening!

We’re expanding our YouTube presence, and I’d love for you to join us. Subscribe to our YouTube channel, where fresh, original content you won’t hear on the broadcasts will be arriving weekly.

We’re launching the initiative with our very first episode of #ThatKEVINExtra.

The concept is simple: Sometimes the most fascinating parts of an interview happen when the broadcast clock runs out. Podcasts don’t have that limitation.

Our inaugural installment features a certified advocate for victims of domestic abuse examining troubling behavioral similarities she perceives between patterns of abuse and the public conduct of a recently elected senator from Michigan. Her observations raise questions worthy of serious discussion. It’s a fascinating conversation, and one I hope you’ll watch in full.

Another extraordinary conversation this week was with Gary Sinise.

I sat down with Gary for a special 5 Questions interview. The idea is to explore as much of a person’s life, work, and perspective as possible through just five carefully crafted questions.

Gary’s new book, Graceful Warrior, tells the deeply moving story of his son’s extraordinary courage while battling a devastating disease. It’s a story of love, perseverance, faith, and the kind of strength that leaves you changed after hearing it.

Speaking of things that move the heart, have you discovered the newest Christmas music from The TEA Collective?

Our Christmas compositions have now earned two Awards for Excellence, and this season we’ve added beautiful new interpretations of Yesterday The Same, including our first fully orchestrated arrangement.

We’ve gathered the music into our holiday playlist, and I would love for it to become part of your family’s soundtrack this Christmas.

Listen to our Christmas playlist on Spotify.

And if all this talk of Christmas has you thinking about Thanksgiving first, our sister publication, C’est Si Bon, has you covered!

This week’s issue is laying out everything you need for a magnificent Thanksgiving feast. Recipes, inspiration, and enough advance notice to actually get your shopping done before the holiday rush. Imagine that—being prepared!

On That KEVIN Show TV this weekend, we’re bringing you another packed edition featuring Grace Stuart, Congressman-elect Chris Stigall, Dr. Meaghan Mobbs, and musical guest Matt Maher.

And because the world is occasionally so absurd that laughter becomes essential, we’ve got brand-new comedy from Nick Peterson, The Puppet Regime, and The Babylon Bee.

Finally, I have a question for you.

Where are you headed this holiday season?

And perhaps more importantly, why?

Is it a cherished family tradition? A reunion long overdue? A destination you’ve dreamed of visiting? Or simply a quiet place where you can escape the noise and rediscover what matters?

I’d genuinely love to hear your stories. Write me at [email protected]. Tell me where you’re going, but especially tell me what makes that destination meaningful.

Because the best journeys aren’t always measured in miles. Sometimes they’re measured in memories.

Until next week, may your travels be joyful, your tables be full, and your hearts be grateful.

Safe Journeys,

That KEVIN
