Life is exciting. Life is depressing. When life is on the move, do you watch it pass by, or do you hang on for dear life and go for a ride? Let's take a look at the deeper levels of personal growth and purpose, while appreciating the comedy of life and bringing calm to the chaos. Let's Quell the Fray.
S1 E14 Part 3: Sometimes a nice place to visit is a hard place to live
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 E11: Ikigai... But don't be an icky guy
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.

S1 E2: Who's Fault is it Anyway?
There is a large part of the population that has no sense of personal responsibility these days, but why is that?
