Hot Fossils and Rebel Matters 141 - Podcasting Prohibited

Hot Fossils and Rebel Matters 141 - Podcasting Prohibited

On a rainy, miserable weekend because they can do little outside work, Ninja  and Special K conduct a painting proof of concept in the basement that also includes the art of putting Muskoka chairs together.  They debate whether Adirondack, Muskoka and Cape Cod Chairs are all the same or not.   Ninja finds proof in Wikipedia that they might be, but Special K is certain they are all slightly different.  Ninja promises her partner that there will be no podcasting this weekend, but can't quite stick with it.
