Said Executive Producer and host Lee Abbott of the initiative, 'there are adventures I've been fortunate to have had in my lifetime that no price tag could have been put on, and some that I've had that only could have happened because of VIP access, such as racing Ferraris around the track with Team Ferrari or being in a pool chicken-fight with Madonna!

TLC Media Group President Tom Acuff says of partnering with VOS, "In my years of finance I am incredibly impressed at the instant agility and reach that VOS provides.
