I figured that because I was lonely and frustrated and had so many things I couldn't "solve", that pulling out the recorder and talking to you would at least get some things out. Well, they came out - the result is an episode recorded over 2 days, and 3 sessions. Each session attempting to explain the one before. Day one started with me attempting to provide a little more background about Episode 7. Things went where they went. The final session attempts to pull the whole thing together and that is the part you will hear first. Fair warning - you will hear a lot of ME in this episode, good bad and ugly. Buckle the fuck up and push play.

This started as just the history of LaxSeeds - but as I started talking, I realized that without the context of my journey to lacrosse - it lacked punch. So, I walk you through my family's journey to and through lacrosse. towards the end, it got a bit emotional. As I started to talk about LaxSeeds I was a bit overwhelmed. So, now I'm looking at this as part 1. The journey is not smooth as silk - but I wouldn't change a thing.
