This week we wrap up season 5! As a reminder, season 5 was shorter to accommodate Tillie's opportunity to lead a study abroad semester in Ecuador.  We chat about season 5, issue a few corrections, play a few bloopers, and provide updated stats. 

We will be back soon with season 6! Plans are still underway, but after a bit of hiatus for planning and recording, Abby and Erin will be launching a season of interviews and episodes with guests - if you have recommendations for people we should talk to, please let us know! 

We will provide Tillie updates during Season 6 as well, but you can also follow the group's adventures on the Goshen College SST blog:  https://www.goshen.edu/ecuador/

Also, we recorded this episode in early December, so Patreon members joining after that time did not receive their "public shout out" reward in this season wrap up - we apologize and owe you two public shout outs during season 6! 

We always love hearing from listeners! You can reach us at plainwrongpod at gmail.com, or on Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook.

“Just Plain Wrong” is produced, written and edited by Erin Milanese, Abby Nafziger and Matilda Yoder.

Our intro music is played by Erin, and the outro by Miriam Augsburger. Both are "arrangements" of the Doxology from the Mennonite Hymnal.

We are re-posting this episode because we recently discovered we posted the wrong file! Apologies, and thank you to those who alerted us to the issue. We are actually a little shocked this is the first time this has happened, but we apologize for the error.

This week, the MennoBrarians discuss the 2008 movie Sex Drive, which can currently be found on Netflix. Sex Drive is a coming of age comedy about three teens who take a road trip to Knoxville, TN, with a short detour through Amish country that really does include a Fall Out Boy Rumpsringa Concert. We chat trips with friends, Amish mechanics, the dangers of driving cars through corn fields, and much more. 

Content note: due to the content of the movie we are discussing, be aware that our episode contains mild sexual references and innuendo.

This week, the Mennobrarians chat with historian John D. Roth, Project Director for MennoMedia’s project “Anabaptism at 500” and former Professor of History at Goshen College, about his most recent book, A Mennonite College for Everyone(?): Goshen College and the Quest for Identity and Inclusion, 1960-2020. We chat writing history, the myth of Mennonite exceptionalism, and what we can learn from the past attempts (and often failures) to meaningful expand the definition of what it means to be a Mennonite or a Mennonite institution. We also subject John to the Amish title generator and a round of Balderdutch.

You can find John Roth's book for sale at Fables bookstore in Goshen, IN. 

Note: Tillie experienced some audio problems during the recording of this episode.
