About

the Hoganator

Professional 1,200 sq ft independent studio in Splendora, TX. Professional cameras, professional lighting, 32-channel console, Pro Tools, and DaVinci Resolve.
Five Years of Free Thinking
Hank's Think Tank started as a simple idea — that Montgomery County deserved a place for real, unfiltered conversations about the issues that matter most to the people who live and work here.
Five years later, the show has grown into a nationally-watched independent media platform, with over 100,000 subscribers and a reputation built on one thing: honest conversation with no agenda.
Hank has sat down with judges, commissioners, law enforcement officials, elected representatives, business owners, and everyday people. Every episode ends the same way it began — with curiosity, and a commitment to staying free.
The show airs every Sunday at 6 PM CST and is available on YouTube, Spotify, and Apple Podcasts.
"Stay curious and stay free."
— Hank Vat, closing every episodeMark Hogan (The Hoganator)
From time to time, Hank is joined by Mark Hogan — a familiar face to regular viewers who brings a sharp mind, a quick wit, and a perspective that doesn't always line up with Hank's. That's exactly what makes it work.
Mark has appeared on a number of special episodes, co-hosting everything from in-depth community discussions to lighter fare like the show's popular Whiskey Taste Testing episodes. When Mark is in the chair, expect a genuine back-and-forth — two people who see the world differently, working through ideas in real time.
Mark is not a regular fixture on every episode, but when he shows up, viewers notice. His contributions have added a dimension to the show that Hank is genuinely grateful for.
Mark appears as a guest contributor at the invitation of Studio One Three Media.

"When Mark's in the room, you never quite know which direction the conversation is going — and that's the point."
