• S1 E14 Part 3: Sometimes a nice place to visit is a hard place to live
    Aug 2 2023

    In the final part of our season ending trip to Thomas, WV, we meet with local music shop owner, Christopher Quattro. Chris owns and operates Quattro Music Company in the heart of Thomas, and runs sound at The Purple Fiddle, a local hotspot with live music. What starts as some music talk, turns into a rollercoaster of a discussion. Sometimes a nice place to visit is a hard place to live. Could happiness exist without sadness? Is money real? Will nature care when humanity is gone? What quells Chris' fray?


    Thank you for joining us in our first season, and sticking with us through some of the hiccups. Don't forget to share us with a friend, and we will be back with Season 2 later this year.

  • S1 E14 Part 1: The Car Ride
    Jul 19 2023

    This on the road episode (Please excuse any background noise.. We were in the car, and of course it decided to rain) starts a 3 part episode for our season ending trip to Thomas, WV and Blackwater Falls to Quell our Fray. The car ride chat starts with some Mamba mentality and travels through some memories and stories of the area. Follow us on our weekend getaway as we meet up with a couple people from the area and talk about the Fray.


    Oh.. and Spruce Knob is West Virginia's highest peak, topping in at 4,863 feet above sea level; not even a mile high.

  • S1 E12: Be your best and forget the rest
    Jun 28 2023

    Willy and Doc are the best; maybe not by your definition, but that's kind of the point. We explore the subjectivity of what it means to be, or do, the best. Let's Quell the Fray.

  • S1 E11: Ikigai... But don't be an icky guy
    Jun 21 2023

    We attempt to talk about Ikigai, what gives you a sense of purpose. However, we get a little consumed by the Fray and ride the rollercoaster of experiences along the way; from unwanted ball exposures, to inappropriate antics on Zoom, to saving a baby bird (or at least trying). Hopefully this loose and comedic episode can help... Quell the Fray.
