\subsection{Stellar Evolution: The ``Life Story'' of Select RG/EBs}  The first RG/EB we will study in detail is the double red giant KIC 9246715. It is particularly interesting because only one star shows solar-like oscillations, and they are at a somewhat lower amplitude than expected. In addition, one or both stars show evidence of low-level stellar activity. In many ways, this system represents a likely future state for the other RG/EBs with main sequence companions.  The result from stellar evolution modeling will be similar to that in \citet{mac14}, which is shown in Figure \ref{evolution_tracks}. \ref{fig:evolution_tracks}.  They studied a $\delta$ Scuti star, which pulsates from a different physical mechanism than our RG/EB solar-like oscillators. They also had the advantage of both stars having similar luminosities, like the case of KIC 9246715. We do not expect to compute evolutionary histories for all the RG/EBs, especially those with faint main sequence companions, but we will choose one or more pairs of oscillating and non-oscillating systems for a similar analysis with MESAstar. %\begin{figure}[h!]   %\centering
