Life is too rushed, too complex, and always way too stressful. We all know this. And sometimes we need to pause things... just for a while. Sit... Breathe... Relax... Three simple remedies to help ease your hectic day. And so we cordially invite you to take a much needed short break: a restorative pause in which to pull up a chair, to sit back and join Steve Matchett and Kevin Fielden pondering the world from the porch of Steve’s home on the banks of Lake Wylie, in Charlotte, North Carolina. The entire premise for this pleasurable distraction is intentionally unassuming: Two friends chatting about nothing in particular (most definitely not about religion or politics) for half-an-hour, maybe forty minutes. That’s it. That’s the whole thing. One take. No quirky, overly produced editing. No unnecessary music playing in the background - nothing beyond the natural ambience of nature itself. In essence, then, gentle listener, this little get-together is simply you, Matchett and the other guy unwinding by the lake – friends enjoying one another’s company. The restorative pause. Sit... Breathe... Relax... Enjoy.

Join us at the lake, as Steve reminisces on his unique childhood experiences of growing up in a remote English country house; a rambling (near empty) manor home set amid vast acres of green woodland. As a young boy given unlimited run of this magical Narnia-esque landscape - the formal grounds and manicured lawns of the manor house itself, with its walled Victorian gardens and vast greenhouses; the carriage houses and courtyard stables; an oak paneled library, shelved floor-to-ceiling with precious leather-bound volumes; unending miles of creaking dusty attics filled with boxed treasures - all these truly incredible playgrounds of Steve's childhood helped to fuel and develop a wonderfully creative imagination. Precious young years leading to a lifelong appreciation of classic literature. Mystical days seeding his own future: a career of best-selling achievements with pen and paper; his lifelong delight in creating his own highly atmospheric series of stories. It all started right here...
