Milcrate Mosh references Gideon and (presumably) Holly being in Denver.

While many Lifter Puller songs would be written early while recorded or released on later records, Secret Santa Cruz was actually one of the last Lifter Puller songs, being recorded and written just after their final album.

“So about 300 years after Christ died, there lived a woman who’s now known as Saint Barbara. Saint Barbara lived in Micronesia, which I’m not exactly sure where it is, but I have a feeling it’s kind of by Indonesia. Anyways, it was a little different back then, because Barbara’s dad was a wealthy landowner and aristocrat, but he was actually fighting wars which is one thing they did a little differently; the rich guys fought wars. While he was gone, Saint Barbara became a Christian, and you know, being a Christian back then isn’t like being a Christian right now, I’d equate it to more like having facial tattoos: you’re kind of making a statement, being a Christian 300 years after Christ died. Saint Barbara’s dad came home from the war and found out his daughter had become a Christian, and he was pissed. And if you think your dad’s been pissed at you, Saint Barbara’s dad was more pissed. He ordered her to be executed. And whoever makes the decisions on that sort of thing in Micronesia back then, said, you know, let’s go a little bit further, we can’t just execute her. Saint Barbara’s dad, why don’t you execute your own daughter? And he was like, "Awesome, I will.” So he rolled her into the town square, wherever these things happen, and Saint Barbara’s dad beheaded his own daughter. But it didn’t end so well for him either, because he was walking home to go have a feast or whatever you do after you after an execution, and a bolt of lightning came from the sky, and it struck him dead. Saint Barbara is now the patron saint of landmines, or more specifically not stepping on landmines.“ – Craig Finn
