Welcome back to Conversation on Tap!
In this episode, Joel and Jose were joined by Luke Laurie to discuss the Coronavirus pandemic. This was recorded almost a week beforehand, so the information, while accurate at the time, doesn't capture the worsening situation we face today.
Because of social distancing, this was also our first episode to be recorded via Skype, so please bear with us as the sound quality wasn't especially at its finest. We will improve the sound, hopefully, as we do more episodes using Skype.
As they started the episode, Joel and Jose poured themselves some Coronas, both as a bit of gallows humor and a show of solidarity with the Corona company.
For their FRED Talks, Joel sat this one out, but Jose talked about the global population of Catholics, a topic on his mind as they prepared to discuss a global virus.
In the main segment, Joel, Luke, and Jose talked about the Coronavirus. They talked about the origin of the Coronavirus, as well as why it is also called Covid-19. They also talked about the mishandling of the pandemic by the Trump administration, as well as the lack of urgency at all levels of government until it was too late. The trio also talked about ways to prevent catching the virus and flattening the curve. If you would like to know more about this virus, then this is the episode you need to listen to!
In the final segment, Joel talked about some bands that he has been listening to lately, and Jose shared his impressions of the Hulu docu-series entitled Hillary.
