When a Hat is Much More Than a Hat with Craig Colby

In today's heartwarming episode, Patty welcomes Craig Colby, an award-winning executive producer with a fascinating story to share. Craig's journey takes us from his impressive career producing content for networks like Discovery Channel, ESPN Plus, BBC Earth, and the Smithsonian Channel to a surprising pandemic-induced obsession with hats. This newfound passion led to an extraordinary bonding experience with a community of friends, inspiring Craig's book "All Caps: Stories That Justify an Outrageous Hat Collection," which later won the Canadian Book Club Award for Best Nonfiction Book of 2022.

The memoir isn't just about caps; it's about connections and memories associated with each hat. Craig shares touching stories, like a miraculous encounter with the Toronto Maple Leaves that brightened his son's darkest days. This episode reminds us to find happiness even in the face of adversity and to cherish the moments that truly matter.
