This episode introduces the Emily, who quite literally found love (and some really interesting rocks) while running a Pentagon-backed mineral exploration program in Afghanistan. Prepare for "free-range geologists" navigating perilous terrain in body armor, battling bubbling lithium lakes in repurposed dune buggies, and the logistical chaos of getting radioactive samples into the Pentagon. It's a love story, a post-war story, and a thrilling, hilarious testament to the unexpected adventures of geologists.
