At long last, we reach the 500th episode of our show, and bring it to you for your enjoyment. For this momentous occasion, we invited long-time conspirator and friend of the show, Tim Mooney (whose voice is briefly heard on our program nearly weekly), to join. We love the fact that we can have long conversations about things other than bikes, and in this episode discuss the long arc of history as it pertains to simplifying the good life, with a little mention to bikes towards the end. Stay tuned for a fitting end-of-Monty-Python-and-the-Search-For-The-Holy-Grail-esque ending, perfectly in tune with the history of the show. Also featured: executive producer Brock Dittus, a call-in from founding cohost Brandon Rhodes, and perennial hosts Aaron Flores & Guthrie Straw.
Thank you for listening!
Thanks to our beverage sponsor, The Beer Mongers, and, as always, thanks to our generous Patreon donors that keep us going!
