Hey Zac. In your presentation "Setting the Blog..." You start saying that the file to help us to set up the "Blog" is single-portfolio.php then a jump cut (video-editing) and you say that the page-sidebar.php file will help us to create the "Blog". I assume that is the page-side.php file from where you continue working toward to have the finished theme. Just an observation.

Treehouse Guest TeacherFor the blog you primarily use home.php for the blog landing page and then single.php for the individual blog post pages.

The second entry (page-sidebar-left.php) is the correct template to start with. This was obviously not meant to make it to the live version.
