This week, we kick it off with a rant about how nuts it is to work in customer service this day and age. That's quickly balanced out with a story about a kind listener, random musings about Baby Boomer facial hair, shoes from the 80s, and an update about the Finish Line sealant in Andrea's rear tire.
Listener questions we tackle this week:

What to do about water ingress in a rim
Why aren't Gearbox bikes more popular? (again)
Kenny's art and science of wheelbuilding
