Episode link here:  https://www.podbean.com/eas/pb-qdm4r-14aa08b
Byron & Alicia are chatting away on the porch on a beautiful October afternoon.  Talk turns to milk trucks & milk you had to shake.  They decide fat free half n half is ethically & morally wrong. Then the butterwagon shows up & right off the bat Alicia wonders if she's getting ready to die...Their minds have moved over to seasonal things & they talk about it for a bit...you know, death & the like.  The porch is bright & comfy as the talk flows.  
We hope you enjoy this episode. :-)  It's a little over an hour because it was so dang pretty outside they didn't want to stop!
