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.

When a road trip simply won't do: either the distance between departure and destination is enormous, or because a vast expanse of water stands unabashed before us. Cue the airport… and another rite of passage, the first time we thunder down a runway before soaring upwards into the wild blue yonder. The joys of the airplane, and while some of us take but the occasional flight of pleasure, others must endure the endless soul-destroying slog of business travel, often crouched in the wrong end of the plane. Another option: a sail on the high seas. Not as fast as air transport, no question, but there is an undeniable element of romance and mystique aboard a transatlantic liner; a more stately alternative where the pleasure of a lengthy crossing often outweighs the importance of the eventual destination. As the old saying has it: sometimes it is better to journey than to arrive. And so, gentle listener, time now to join our two hosts as they sit contentedly (and for the most part stationary) on Steve's lakeside porch, the pair of them discussing unique travel experiences... the good trips, the bad trips, and, naturally, the many, many ugly trips.
