Episode 48: We Distance Ourselves from Covidiots

In this episode, Jose and Joel are joined by Roger Hall to discuss the Trump presidency and the protesters of the Coronavirus protection guidelines.

But, first, Jose and Joel chat about what they are drinking: Heineken and Blue Moon Belgian White.

For their FRED Talks, Jose talked about the etymology of the words hocus pocus, and Joel used his time to discuss political purity tests and Michael Moore's recent documentary assailing environmentalists.

In the main segment, Jose and Joel were joined by Roger Hall, a history professor at Allan Hancock College, for an informed discussion about the historical context of the Coronavirus pandemic and the Trump administration. The discussion begins with some background on Mr. Hall's credentials and then moves into his love of teaching, especially teaching history. The conversation really began when they started to discuss his letter to the editor regarding the ill-informed protests in Santa Maria and around the nation. From there, they discussed the Trump administration's handling of the response, as well as Trump's incompetence as president. The conversation ended with a comparison of the presidencies of Trump and Abraham Lincoln. It's an amazing discussion!

In the final segment, Jose talked about how he has been watching a YouTube show called Hot Ones, whereas Joel talked about the hilarious impressions of Sarah Cooper.
