b'
Here is the story of a young prince who is whisked away to the Island of Gems by the Western Queen Mother. He is warned by his mother not to break any etiquette, but after he tastes the peach of immortality, he breaks the rules and tosses a peach to a maiden. Instead of ignoring the peach and just letting it pass, the young woman catches it and takes a bite. For this, the two are bound to walk the earth for 1000 years. Will they ever find each other?

\\nPodcast Shoutout: It\'s a Continent Challenging the common misconception that Africa is a country.
\\nListener Shoutout: Nonthaburi is directly northwest of Bangkok on the Chao Phraya River. The province is part of the greater Bangkok Metropolitan Area. In most parts it is as urbanized as the capital, and the boundary between the two provinces is nearly unrecognizable. There is no forest area in the province.
