Full Synthetic, Magnolia Crescent, and Jack Diesel went on a mission to a machine shop in Amish country to see if they could get a replacement part made for an antique tractor Magnolia was working on. (After we recorded this, the person she was working for pulled the plug on the project, so the guys never machined the rocker shaft.) Then we snuck into a quarry to swim. Along the way, Magnolia explained some things she'd learned recently about how electricity works, Full Synthetic described an electrical diagnostic job she did on a Chevy Malibu, and we also talked about what feels electric in relationships. We drove Jack's new '95 Saturn S-series, which we call "Old Gold" in honor of Honey's younger gold Saturn.

We recorded this in the summer of 2020 but it took a long time to get it ready. There's a pandemic and all.

We said we'd link to the video of the kiss scene from the movie The Thirteenth Year, which is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cnM9GNWbMM0&list=PLfFZrtOe1r-naShwsuV3PlAarNjlv0rQL&index=2
