As the sun cast an otherworldly shadow during the recent solar eclipse, my son Zach and I were each swept up in the awe of the experience, I at a solar party and him plunged into darkness at the ballpark. We share these moments and more, like the thrill of baseball's return. Hear how the Syracuse Mets have woven themselves into the very fabric of our family tapestry, right down to the matching apparel we sport with pride. Zach's commitment to his health, through a consistent fitness regime at the Y, also surfaces, grounding our discussion in the values that matter most to us.

Nostalgia is a powerful force, and it takes center stage as we wander through the corridors of our family history, revisiting the transformation of our spaces and the baseball memorabilia that marks our journey. We reflect on how the Syracuse Mets and Washington Nationals are more than just teams—they're vessels of our shared experiences, from the playroom to the game room, from childhood to the present. Connecting with our listeners, whose stories from places as diverse as England and Texas echo our own, we celebrate the sports traditions that link us across miles and generations.

And a bit of humor and warmth. Zach's updates, sprinkled with anecdotes from school days to favorite TV shows, bring a smile as we debate talk show hosts and plan for upcoming adventures, including a camping trip that promises laughs and relaxation. A special mention of our upcoming guest on the Skip Happens podcast, Jeff Galko, hints at the community ties that enrich our lives. So sit back, plug in, and relive the memories and laughter with us—it's about cherishing the moments as it is about looking forward to the next play.
