Baseball is near and dear to my heart. It is the true signal that spring has sprung to me. Not that flowers blooming and warmer weather bringing out the more colorful of us into light isn’t worth celebrating as well. This show is dedicated to spring and the romance of baseball. Thank you to Johhny “Bouldt” Reynolds and DJ Ruff for joining me in this expression of our national pastime and the warmth of spring. Hope springs eternal.

Welcome back fellow Confluxians. The Alchemist here to guide you through another wild ride. Tonight’s show is called a Skatterbox Session. The first of many. This features mostly shorter cuts blended with movie scenes and other recorded materials assembled together like pieces of broken glass to form a mosaic of audio delight. Some apologies in order as the Mic setting had me sounding very very far away for the first half of the show…..this set list below will help with that as you listen to the podcast.
