A Lineman
Notes de l’épisode
Wiring a neighborhood back to life after a tornado, coveting the work of helicopter linemen in Faraday suits, and surviving the collapse of a rotten utility pole with Elden Rivas, a journeyman lineman in Houston, Texas. What is the one sound on the crew radio that stops every lineman cold? And why does a squirrel on a transformer mean easy money?

1. What’s a word or phrase that only someone from your profession would be likely to know and what does it mean?

We can’t respond to every message, but we do listen to all of them! We’ll follow up if it's a good fit.
